Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our stay was absolute perfection. The staff was wonderfully attentive, and the location couldn’t have been better for us. Just a 25-minute drive to Oia, we were close enough to explore but far enough to escape the crowds—plus we had breathtaking views and warm hospitality right where we were. We did the morning hike to avoid the heat, which was such a memorable experience. Breakfast was outstanding—truly sensational—and every WhatsApp request we sent was answered quickly. The staff also arranged drivers who arrived right on time. (Tip: if you’re traveling during “rush hour” to a popular spot, it’s worth booking a bit ahead.) Our cave room was a dream, complete with a balcony overlooking the ocean. We loved relaxing on the deck every morning. There was even a small walk-in closet where we could tuck our luggage out of the way, and a little table inside that made a perfect spot for working or unwinding.

One of the best hotels

This is one of the best hotels that I have ever stayed in. The staff is amazingly friendly, the view is breathtaking & the room was spacious, clean and absolutely fantastic. I can’t recommend this hotel enough- you won’t be disappointed! When visiting Santorini again- this will be the one and only choice!

This was not of the standard of leading hotels. The paint on the walls was cracked; the shower floor needed work; the water pressure needs work. . The room was well kept; the breakfast was very good. The steps were problematic-not the number but the steepness and unevenness made going from one level to another very difficult

I travel the world with my family, usually to the tops hotels as possible. I have never being treated as good as royalty before. Top top top customer service. The staff from the reception, de concierge, the bellboys etc are like far far trained and has a great customer service vocation. Impressive stat. The rooms are huge and seems like new, the smell of the rooms is great. The only thing I’ll rate around 7/10 is the food and the speed of service in the restaurant maybe 7/10. That’s the only thing I didn’t love. Thanks for a wonderful vacation memories you helped to experience.

This review is actually for Katikies Santorini in Oia where we were switched to by the Katikies group because of some unfinished renovations at the Chromata hotel. Because of the change our room was upgraded to Superior accommodation free of charge! Our stay was between May 3-10 to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary and all I can say is that the experience was amazing! The hotel was immaculate. We had our own private terrace with easy chairs and umbrella. Our room and the hotel itself was very clean and the staff totally attentive to our needs. The views from our room were breathtaking and we ate the varied and delicious 5-star quality breakfast on the terrace overlooking the sea and islands. The hotel added so many nice touches to our stay. On arrival we found a bottle of wine and treats in our room. It was Greek Orthodox Easter so we also received an Easter basket with goodies. The hotel is situated at the start of the pedestrian-only road where the shops and excellent restaurants are located so everything was within walking distance. Despite being in the town center the hotel was very quiet (there were many tourists and cruise ship visitors but apparently not as many as in the peak summer season). During our stay we visited Fira (a 20 min, 4 EUR return trip) which has a great museum; took a sunset boat trip around the island and made the must-do 10 km hike along the coast between Oia and Fira. The sunsets were spectacular. Our best vacation experience!

One of the best experiences you can have

This is by far the best hotel experience me and my wife have ever had. Everyone was hospitable, showed care and overall constantly made sure we had a unique good experience. The reception always treated us right and even made sure we had breakfast to go in the next morning due to our early flight. Kosta went above and beyond helping us out in the morning as well!
