Great hotel in a great town
We stayed here based on a recommndation from a friend. I was reluctant to stay in Kamari instead of somewhere on the top of the cliff. Kamari is a wonderful place and this hotel is a great place. The staff went out of their way to help with everything. It was a fantastic visit.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Hotel Matina. The staff was super friendly and helpful with transfers and helping us to book our tour. They even surprised my daughter with a birthday cake on her birthday. It was so special. The rooms were clean and quaint with a genuine Greek charm. I just loved it.

Kamari charm
It was a charming hotel. The shower was very small, but the room met my needs and the hotel was close to the local bus which was ideal. Staff was very helpful and for the most part friendly.

We loved our stay at the Marina Hotel. The staff was excellent and our room was always spotless when we returned. We really felt like family by the time we left. The pool and wifi were awesome. The location was great. Close to restaurants and a grocery store. The only suggestion would be to increase the size of the shower.

Successful change of scene coming from California!
My wife and I had a lovely stay (3 nights, end of April 2019) at Hotel Matina! Location is very convenient, we can walk to stores (supermarket, car rental, souvenirs shops), restaurants or the beach in just few minutes in this flat part of the island. The service was great, beyond our expectations: Jean Pierre was able to give us tips and awesome recommendations only locals know about. The breakfast was very yummy (large choice) and the bar right by the pool was very convenient. Will definitely come back!

On the move
I arranged for airport pick up and they were there. Very polite. When I got to the hotel they had to put me in the hotel across the street for my first night, since they where booked. So I had to stay there and check out at 11 but couldn’t check in at Matina Hotel until 1:00. It was a lot of moving for a short stay. If they didn’t have the room than they shouldn’t of booked me a room for 2 nights

perfect hotel 5 minutes to the beach
My husband, 3 month old and I had an amazing vacation at hotel matina. Kamari beach in Santorini is highly recommended! This hotel was 5 minute walk to the beach boardwalk, tones of restaurants and stores. The rooms were very clean and the pool was a nice and quiet place to cool off! Having breakfast included was great and they had a lovely selection of breakfast items and delicious coffee! We loved our stay at hotel matina!

Charming characterful and just brilliant
Such a beautiful hotel, warmest of welcomes from all staff. Truly great spirit and atmosphere. All guests had smiles on their faces. That says a lot. That's because they were being treated with respect and love. It's a charming style, more traditional and home-like. Pool is great. Ok.... so it's not the high brow boutique modern style as some of its neighbours. etc.. But it's a little gem, a retreat and peaceful sanctuary. I looked at booking hotels on the beach boardwalk, but thank my lucky stars I didn't, as it was so so busy, all day and all night. It was just perfect to walk 5 minutes into the atmosphere of the beach and the hotspots of Kamari, but then have the option to retreat back to Hotel Matina and review our perfect day. FYI the boutique hotels aren't worth the extra money. Some recommendations for people visiting Kamari for first time. Healthy choices at Navy's Restaurant. Great fresh healthy juices at Juice Me. Our fave spot was "Mesogaia". It's a wine bar with superb tapas - so friendly & enthusiastic about their wine/food, it's origins & flavours. Brill. Oia - the most romantic part. Trust me... better to stay in Kamari & travel over to visit. VERY BUSY there. My advice, enjoy the sunset but STAY after all the bus/boat tourists leave. It's probably one of the most romantic things you can do. Easy to get taxi back also, took 30 mins. Santorini is Magical and Hoel Matina had a big part in our enjoyment. You wont regret it booking. Cheers.

Lovely boutique hotel
We had heard lots of wonderful stories about Santorini and it's spectacular beauty and we weren't disappointed. We stayed for 12 nights and had a brilliant holiday. Hotel Matina is located in Kamari and very central to shops, restaurants and tavernas. There's lots to see and do and the hotel is situated at the bottom of a steep hill with a path leading to the the ancient ruins of Thiera.
