Area is nice and quiet. 5 minute walk from the town center. We were disappointed with the morning staff being inflexible with opening the breakfast area to us to grab a coffee and some breakfast before we had to catch the bus for our flight out. This was even with us asking for a few extra minutes the day before.

Bait and switch
We purchased a suite for 3 people with a queen bed and couch. We received a small studio with the bed and couch 3 ft(1 m) apart. No way room for 3 people. The hotel was empty but would not give us the room we paid for. There was zero maid service. I had to wait 1 hour for toiletries in the evening and missed my sunset dinner. This made my GF walk alone in a foreign country to dinner. My friends came over the first day, and the manager said they have to leave, even though I paid for 3 people, but only had 2 stay because the room was small(not the room I purchased). We felt unwelcome and left asap.

Thank you so much for taking time and share your experience at callia retreat hotel .Kindly inform you that .Although your reservation was for 3 people and you have informed us the same day of arrival that you are 4 people and that was the reason that you had to book onother propert as well, because you were more people than the acceptable occupancy of the room that you have booked . Afterwards we realised that were not the person who made the reservation but a friend of yours and you asked even to change the name of the reservation . all them without any warning or request before arrival .Although you were not the person who made the reservation we have accepted you as a main visitor due to the circumstances . The room that you have booked was Junior triple suite with double bed and a sofa bed .As you can see from the description of the room nowhere mentioned that the sofa bed is in separate bedroom as you have requested upon your stay with us . The size of room was very clearly mentioned through the site the reservation is made and if the person who made the reservation as you were not you,did not informed and you had another expectations is not us to blame for .Upon your arrival we have informed you about the measures and the the legal actions have been taken from hotel due to the guidliness from Greek Ministry of tourism regarding the spread of Covid-19 . One of them is that is not allowed the daily cleaning of the housekeeper in order to avoid the spread of Covid-19 and ensuring proper hygiene and complete protection of our guests . you agreed and you have signed the relevant document .Our front desk manager the same day that you mentioned that you needed toiletries asked you if you need something for your room in order to ensure that you have all the necessaries but you answered that you are okay .Secondly, although the reception is not open 24 hours you as you were informed upon your arrival there is a relevant announcement in a visible place. You have contacted with us for toiletries (although you told us that you don't need ) and someone immediately came although was out of reception hours . The second measure In order to maximize safety and reduce the contact between guests and staff is that no visitors are allowed except the guests of the property .For the same reason we are using the 50% of the rooms of our property .So when you came to the property with a group of people without even ask again we had a very serious reason very kindly attended you that no visitors are allowed in the property . We totally respect your attitude , regarding this situation but we will never overlook our policies and our responsibilities to our guest safety and we

Lovely place. Comfortable beds, nice area to sit out and have coffee after breakfast. Breakfast was interesting. I enjoyed the cheese, peaches, toast, croissants, honey etc. Yogurt, scrambled eggs , etc were also provided. You can walk to restaurants, main square, cable cars and bus stop. Takes a bit of time ...15 to 20 minutes. We took public buses both directions. Convenient and interesting!

Windowless room, cold, no top sheet just a heavy duvet that undoubtedly isn’t washed each time. Breakfast looked good, but most of it was cold and unappetizing. No one willing to assist with baggage. A ten minute walk to town but you have to walk on a busy road. Was 100.09 US dollars with no view. Bad deal. There are far better and less expensive places. They try to pass it off as a fancy place. No one was impressed.

We highly value your feedback as it serves us in constantly reviewing and improving our services to enhance our guests’ satisfaction. We have taken good note of your feedback which was not quite to your expectations. We are surprised by your remarks as we are passionate hoteliers and our top priority is our guests well-being during their stay. We pay a lot of attention to the quality of our service. To start With :Your accommodation was for 1 night you came a night before your arrival as you got confused and as we were fully booked we helped you find somewhere else to stay .You booked next door hotel and as we have been informed you were also disatisied with it . Next day you came for check in and a showed you one of our best Junior Suite and you asked something with better view (kindly note that the room was on the pool area and according to the description of the room taht you have booked the view is on pool or the city).I was more than happy to change you room in a room that faced the east side of the island . Nobody helped your suitcase(small size with rolers) to your room as the room was on ground floor without any stairs . Actualy we have never advertised that we have this kind of service . Fortunately regarding to the 98% of our guest they are really satisfy with their choice stay with us .As you can see from our reviews As you mentioned about the duvet i will not answer to it as is really offensive for us the high score of the reviews so far for the cleanliness and the breakfast from our guests testify the truth As a conclussion is unfair for a stay of couple of hours to post a defamatory review for our property if you had higher expecation you should be more object

2 days stay was enough here
It was ok . Average. The front desk greeted us before our check in. Firstly he give us tha layout map of the town and whole of santorini. The route to Fira was a five mins walk from the hotel which was very near but if you have a phobia of walking down an alley it is very scary. Beware of stray dogs if you are afraid of one. The breakfast was good. The person helped us called for the bike rental to bring us the bike here. The bad part was the chambermaid did not knock our room . She just opened our room and put some towels. Maybe she thought there is no one inside. The problem is they do not have the do not disturb / clean my room door sign. And when checking out the front desk was knocking the door persistantly . Infact we are almost ready . They are no guests checking in also. So what is the rush. His reason was a technician wanted to repair something but actually he did not.

We would like kindly to remind you that you were almost ready after 1 ½ hours from the checking out time without inform the reception. There reception had to come and knock your door persistently because you didn’t answered back and they were worrying. The rush dear guest is that because of your delay the technician had to wait for you and he is not one of our employees. Therefore the check-in and the check-out schedule is something that only the front desk is aware of. Kind regards, Front desk.

Small room, nice view, hearty breakfast
A very nice resort, beautiful view from the room/balcony. The room was a bit small. Service was good, with a good suggestion for dinner, and a hike. Didn't get to use the pool area, as it rained. Breakfast was yummy (eggs, pie, cake, fruit, coffee, yogurt etc), they let us have a late check out as no one was coming in, which was nice.

Dear Anonymous (T.C), Thank you for taking the time to review Callia Collection Suites. In our lives, either by not experience or by mistake, we get unpleasant results. In order to avoid similar situations in the future, we have to improve ourselves learning from those kind of mistakes. The easiest and convenient reaction is starting accusations , even when the accused is trying to guide you with the proper instructions. Nevertheless the hotel’s staff after no one else tried to solve your problem,as you mention,brought out a solution for this situation. Kindly advising you in the future to be more careful and at least give the chance to the property to show you first their hospitality before you review them.

Everything was lovely. The only cautions we would offer is that laundry service is not available onsite. It’s not far but have the desk verify that it’s open. Also if you wish to do the trek from Fira to Oia, it is a 3 hour hike and NOT for beginners. A wonderful stay

Not ideal for winter
We were there in winter so it rained a lot. Location is alright but it still takes about 20-15 mins walk to center in the rain to get food. The walk was dark, wet and there were lots of stray dogs around. The room was clean, comfortable and the place was nice. The breakfast was very good. The people was friendly and helpful. But the shower has no door so water will splash everywhere and you get a we, cold andt slippery toilet floor. Plusthe toilet mist up real quick and due to winter we can't open the window in the toilet. So everything is wet in the toilet. Good point is that there is a balcony so you can enjoy and watch the sunrise.

The communication prior to arrival was great, then when we arrived they assisted us to book excursions with a boat cruise and renting ATVs.

Beware things are not what they seem or promise
I have booked a room with a king bed and got a double bed not comfortable. I asked to change to another room and they would not do it. I had to climb down narrow steps that were steep with our luggage and no one to help with our luggage. The bathroom had a horrible smell every time you turned on the faucet.I question Margarita about the accommodations and she was not happy about it. I had the papers that showed I had paid for a king size room but it did not matter.I was not happy with this situation then I contacted Orbitz and never heard from them either so I will not do business with either one again. I felt deceived and my husband and I paid a lot of money for this trip. Parking a disaster on lot of rocks.

Dear Guest , Thank you for taking the time to review Callia retreat hotel . Concerning your recent review you mentioned that you asked to change room because of the bed . Just to mentioned you , that you got confused and you thought that you have booked the executive Suite with private hot tub .i showed you, your reservation that you have booked the junior Suite not the executive Suite And i made you upgrate and i have allocate your room on a triple one ,without any cost .The papers you showed me was for a junior Suite the type of room that you have finaly booked . Its not fair to mentioned on your review that you asked to change room but we did not , because if you remember i explained you that all of our beds are on the same size and i came to you twice to suggest you to change room but you told me that you did not want it . Also about the suitcases that you wrote that we did not help you , we never promised or advertise anywhere that we have this kind of service . Furthermore as about parking service you have printed facilities and services and nowhere again we advertise that we have private parking place but we tried give you directions where to park the car that you rent . . Nevertheless. We highly value your feedback as it serves us in constantly reviewing and improving our services to enhance our guests’ satisfaction. Sincerely , Hatzistavrou Margarita

From the moment we walked into Callia we knew we were going to enjoy our stay. Margarita, Christos and all of their staff were invaluably helpful and incredibly welcoming. They were full of ideas and advice for our time in Santorini. The pool area is absolutely stunning and has a great relaxed vibe. Our room was attended to daily and was kept exceptionally clean. The breakfast was delicious and included many homemade Greek treats and fresh fruit. We will definitely be staying here again next time we visit Santorini.

AMAZING! Incredible staff and beautiful location
Margaritsa and Christos and the rest of the staff were so friendly and helpful! They helped us with locations to visit, carrying luggage, transfers and quad bikes. Such a beautiful location that is quieter but walking distance to town and the pool area is beautiful. We reallly enjoyed our stay and hope to come back again.

Great Spot in Santorini
In general loved Callia Retreat. It was a 5 min walk to Fira but out of the crowded streets. Only issue we had was around some electrical problems with the AC. Apparently our section was brand new (second people to stay there) and they hadn’t worked out the electrical issues. Staff was extremely responsive even at odd hours and they made up for the inconvenience.

PERFECT HOTEL AND PERFECT STAFF!!
It was absolutely gorgeous and perfect for us! We checked in with margarita at Callia and she was such an awesome help!! She helped with LITERALLY ANYTHING we asked her for. Starting from our rooms to any tours to any places we could go. She gave us her personal WhatsApp info so she could help us right away. And she replied to every text spontaneously. The other staff were awesome and punctual as well. My overall experience was beyond expected. This particular hotel is clean and very convenient location for people who would want to stay near Fira town. If I ever visit Santorini again it’ll be at Callia Retreat for sure.
