We visited Santorini for the 1st time in August, traditionally one of the busiest months for tourists on the island. But what George & his family have created is a welcoming, relaxing and friendly resort perfect for couples or for families who wish to get away from the busy Santorini crowds. Myself and my girlfriend stayed for 4 nights and we couldn't have been treated any better. We arrived from a stay in Athens, on a early morning flight. On arrival, George couldn't have been more welcoming explaining when our room would be ready and allowing us to get some much needed breakfast along with ensuring that we had a place to keep our bags until our room was sorted. He also gave us an idea when our room would be ready to come back, this allowed us to relax straight away and also go explore the local area while our room was being made ready. We had a double mountain view room, the rooms are a generous space, with good aircon (particularly needed in August), safe, a big refrigerator (this is a big bonus), good sized balcony to name a few things. The rooms are kept exceptional clean which was particularly noticeable. The lady who cleaned our room was very attentive, even on one occasion cleaning our room while we went down for breakfast which was great. The breakfasts are very good with a good continental selection (pastries, fruits) and is well replenished. Me and my girlfriend particularly enjoyed being able to sit outside in the covered breakfast area in a morning. Nothing was ever a trouble for George, one morning also arranging us a taxi at a good rate to a evening restaurant booking in Fira and was extremely helpful throughout with any questions we may have. The pool area is a perfect area to relax, the pool is a decent size, a good temperature and was never particularly busy in terms of the sunbeds. A big plus... Also the friendly atmosphere with George's family made this a great place to relax. The hotel grounds are also exceptionally well kept. In terms of location, the hotel couldn't be in a better place. Staying away from the hustle and bustle & potential expense of staying in Oia or Fira during peak season. This hotel is great value. We were really pleased we chose to stay in Kamari. The hotel is set away from the main centre, it's some 12-15 minute walk to the beach front which has many bars & restaurants to choose from, 5 mins from the nearest bus stop to get to other towns (Fira) & 10 mins from the nearest supermarket. Being just offset from the main road the hotel was surprisingly quiet, with only a little bit of road noise from the road which leads into Kamari. Whether you be a couple, family or travelling on your own, I recommend this hotel for many reasons as listed above. In peak season, it provides a retreat from the busy areas in Santorini but is still close enough to visit them without any issues. George and his family are great hosts and extremely welcoming. Thank you for looking after us during our stay. If/when we
