Easy to find
Excellent location close to beach and all shops, cafes, bus stop etc.
Very welcoming - even we arrived late at night
Pickup service a lot cheaper than Uber / Taxi
Basic accommodation, but clean and comfortable
Excellent price given that it is on Santorini in the middle of the tourist ara=ea and close to the beach and all amenities.
Tipica Struttura isolana a picco sulla Caldera di Santorini e con una vista mozzafiato. Le camere moderne confortevoli e molte con vista stupenda , come nel ns caso.
L hotel non e' il massimo per chi ha problemi di deambulazione perche si sviluppa su molte scale, essendo inerpicato come tutti gli altri in zona, sulla collina di Imerovigli, a picco sul mare e sulla caldera a quasi 500m di altezza. Vista panoramica assolutamente indimenticabile.
Personale cosi cosi, senza entusiasmo e con la testa alla imminente stagionale chiusura della struttura.
Tre piscine nell'hotel, una grande due piccole, ma con l'acqua letteralmente gelida....non praticabili almeno per me.
Pulizia ok, ns camera bella, moderna, matrimoniale con sofa oltre il letto, spaziosa con vista super, frigo bar vuoto.
Passiamo alle note negative.
La colazione continentale e' stata da 3 stelle ma di quelli scarsi. Il primo giorno , in normale orario di colazione, già mancavano le tazze i bicchieri e vari prodotti tra cui il latte nella macchina che eroga il caffe o cappuccino ecc ecc. ad un certo punto la macchina non erogava piu niente. Segnalavo la cosa al poco personale presente in sala e mi veniva, in maniera detto, in maniera quasi sgarbata, che era finito il latte nella macchina. Roba da mensa dei poveri....rispondevo che sarei stato costretto a fare colazione fuori pur avendo pagato una colazione in hotel. Alla fine ho dovuto ovviare con un espresso macchiato con latte freddo.
Nei giorni seguente le cose sono leggermente migliorate ma sostanzialmente non ci siamo assolutamente.
I prezzi interni al bar della piscina sono da 6 stelle, una birra greca , la più economica in grecia da 33cl, € 8, due cappuccini orrendi presi appena arrivati al mattino del primo giorno 13€. Non ci hanno offerto nulla all'arrivo.
adesso passiamo alla cosa che ritengo più grave.
Avevamo riservato questa struttura Adromeda SPA Resort per la presenza di una SPA con sauna , jacuzzi ecc ecc, perche amiamo molto questo tipo di facilities in hotel.
Ebbene l'intera SPA era chiusa perche l'hotel si avvicinava alla chiusura stagionale della struttura e da questo ne deduco l 'atteggiamento svogliato di tutto il personale .
Ovviamente l'hotel vende la struttura sul web omettendo questo ”piccolo”particolare.
Siamo rimasti malissimo e non avremmo mai riservato questo hotel con la SPA chiusa
Il nostro tour operator TRIP.COM avendo saputo da noi questa cosa si e' operato con l'hotel per avere un piccolo rimborso, ma non ha avuto successo, poiche l'hotel non si e' dimostrato disponibile.
L'isola e' meravigliosa, ma a mio avviso rientra nel novero delle isole da turismo di massa, come Mikonos Ios e altre, anche se in ottobre un po meno occupata. Clima autunnale e due giorno di pioggia su cinque.
Concludo dicendo che naturalisticamente siamo in un vero paradiso, per la caldera , il vulcano, le isole, tutto stupendo, belle escursioni, moltissimi ristoranti e taverne, ma pochi quelli dove si può mangiare bene.
In conclusione una vacanza dove siamo rimasti soddisfatti a metà.
Molto seccato rispondevo cge sarei andato a fare colazione
The stay was excellent, I had no complaints about the people or the place I was staying at. The people catered to my needs perfectly and had complementary dinner meals that were made with great care. I would stay at vila Manos again if I go on another trip to Santorini. At the end when I left they gave me a complementary bottle of wine as a thank you for staying at there hotel. 10 out of 10 stars
Amazing place. Only 6mins walk up to the centre of Fira which I think is worth it. The room is fantastic, clean. The service was fantastic, booked a cruise for me and was very informative on where to go /visit in Santorini - even gave me a bus timetable!
I would just say that there's no restaurant on-site so be sure to grab something from the Fira markets for your late supper or breakfast and one other thing they can improve on is to make the step more clearer - you don't know how many times I almost slipped as the steps are camouflage (see photo).
And taxi to the Port is €40 which I wasn't advised on and they taxi driver didn't have a machine - so be sure to have cash ready as I had to stop by ATM on the way which was inconvenient and charged alot of fees.
I loved the hotel, great location, not too crowded, great also for guests without a car, the overall team including the host Eddie were all very nice and welcoming, hotel room had everything you needed (don't expect luxury furniture, its more traditional but nice). I would for sure come back. Please be aware that taxis in Santorini cost minimum 40 Euros (even for just a 5-10 minue ride).
Ttraveller2002The hotel staff could not have been more lovely and helpful - a special thanks to Alice and all of the restaurant staff, they went out of their way to help me and always with a smile. The breakfast in the morning was always fantastic, fresh and healthy.
If you’re a solo traveller wanting to unwind like I was - this is a fantastic place. It is minutes away from the beach and well equipped with a gorgeous pool that is never busy. The feel of the hotel is completely zen and really forces you to chill out. The beds are super comfortable too, and I really appreciated the spacious balcony with the gorgeous view to sunbathe and have a drink. Will definitely stay again!
JJamesb24Heavenly!
Although only stayed for one night whilst visiting the island it was the tranquil peace of calm I needed on my first visit to Mykonos.
Although location seems on a map at first seemed to be remote, especially for a solo traveller for less than 24h / it was an absolute blessing and ideal location.
I booked a shared transfer from the airport with Hoppa.com - for under ten euros in advance - I was the only passenger booked on my flight with them so they upgraded me and gave me a private limo chauffeur no extra - literally 15 mins and a stunning drive to the hotel - which is located on a hill above Ornos a beautiful place. The hotel is no exception.
Sat on the hillside beautiful location above the village which is a total contrast to Mykonos Town and just an absolute treat - with a lovely taverna and a fantastic bakery open late into the night - you must try it!
Quiet location lovely pool area and courtyard and room across a few levels - small and intimate place I’m not sure I even saw another guest during my stay, very relaxing!
The room allocated was lovely - lots of really useful amenities, lovely toiletries and complimentary bits all high quality , thoughtful items in the room - toothpaste etc.
Powerful ac which was well used as it was really hot, super comfy bed, safe, fridge, tastefully decorated and modern style - I just loved the bathroom the style was really cool, cave-like and with a powerful shower - always a winner!
The staff, particular the gentleman that checked me in was extremely warm and friendly and extremely helpful in helping me book transport and giving me hints and tips on the best way to maximise my short time in the island.
Breakfast was included but I only had time for a coffee but it looked lovely.
Didn’t need to worry at all about getting around Mykonos is so small and there are ways 24-7 to get anywhere on the island, particularly into Mykonos town and the airport and seaport.
There are regular local buses direct to Mykonos town main bus station the bus stops literally outside the front door - the bus station you can change to the buses to the airport and new ferry port - same bus service.
This cost around €2 and were running every hour.
I took the very first bus I think was 8am which took around 15 mins to the port - and plenty of time for the first Seajets service to Santorini.
Taxis were extortionate and you were looking at around €60 for the incredibly short walkable distances - I took one and instantly regretted it - driver was late and rude to me - which given the price tag compared to the rest of taxis in Greece - made me even more bitter about the price tag - there are other ways to get around.
Reception can help you with all of this - they are great - I would 100% recommend - and absolutely love to go back if I ever visited Mykonos again
JJoel LHHPerfect gem with 9 beautiful suites. Perfect service by Antonis and his wonderful team. Every morning sunrise and evening sunset views were breathtakingly stunning! Will definitely stay again in the future!
ผผู้เข้าพักPositives:
We stayed in a Bungalow Family Room which was spacious, beautifully designed, and had a lovely outdoor area. It was quiet and peaceful. Towels were changed and bins emptied daily. The hotel is perfect for families with younger children (up to about 8 years old). We went with two boys (4 and 8), and they loved it. The two slides kept them entertained, and the beach bar was excellent—always cocktails and snacks available. There were plenty of sun loungers, especially on the beach, with no need to wake up early to reserve. That made the stay very relaxing. The entertainment team was great—friendly, not pushy, and always offering activities. They were amazing with children, and the mini disco was the best we’ve seen so far, with all the staff putting their heart into it. Evening entertainment suited all ages, and we especially enjoyed the beach party.
Negatives:
While most of the staff were lovely and smiley, the reception team was disappointing (except the lady who did our check in efficiently on the evening we arrived and explained everything). On several occasions when I asked questions, they seemed abrupt and in a hurry, even when no one else was waiting. The biggest drawback was the food. It really needs improvement and is the main reason for the lower rating. Most meats were dry, with little variety. Even simple dishes like Greek salad were below standard. The buffet was very pork-heavy, which made it difficult for us on some days since we don’t usually eat pork. Desserts were the worst part, mostly inedible, just cream and jelly-like options. The wine was also very low quality.
Another issue was cleanliness of the public bathrooms, especially those near the pool. They were not well maintained, and I even saw a cockroach in one of them. Our room also had these tiny worm like snakes (apparently harmless and called ”blind snakes”) We first thought it was one that lost her way but we ended up finding one or two everyday and getting them out. We did ask someone to come and sort it out, but they told us they were harmless and didn't do anything other than getting them out.
We love the sustainability concept and appreciate that they grow their own vegetables, but unfortunately, we didn’t see this reflected in the meals. It made us wonder if it might be a bit of a waste of time and money, since the menu didn’t seem to highlight those fresh, organic fruits and vegetables.
As a whole, we felt everything about the hotel except the food was great but on this basis, we wouldn't come again.
RRealCalifornianWhite Pearl Villas was wonderful!
As we arrived, we were proactively greeted by a member of the staff. He attended to our baggage and walked us down to the Aqua Villa Dream room. The room wasn’t on the highest part of Oia, but it was near a great terrace which had lawn chairs and which we used for photos.
Our room has a personal terrace as well with a comfortable chair, but the view from there wasn’t the best.
As we entered the room, we saw that we’d been given a complimentary bottle of wine as well as a bottle of water. The staff member gave us a quick tour of the room, which was interestingly shaped and carved into the cliff. It felt very unique and cozy. We had a smart television that we used for Netflix, as well as a refrigerator. The room also had a jacuzzi, though we didn’t use it as we were visiting in August and it was already quite warm outside. The plunge pool had a cool window that opened to the ocean, though.
The bathroom was a bit small, but the shower was good quality with strong water pressure and consistent temperature.
The staff added me on WhatsApp for easy communication which was GREAT.
The bed was very comfortable with nice sheets as well as a hollow headboard which was good for putting our phones and other things over night. Everything in the room was cleaned when we arrived. There was also a cleaning service when we were away during the day.
The air conditioner was strong and there was a dehumidifier as well. There were plenty of towels and outlets, though we of course needed a converter for our American electronic devices.
There was a coffee maker with easy to use pods, as well as 2 pairs of soft white slippers.
We did not try the breakfast or the massage service.
Overall, we had a wonderful stay. My only wish is that the view directly from our room was a bit better, as the room is tucked into the mountainside. However, there were nice photo spots all around us, so we only had to take 20 steps to get a nice view of the sunrise or sunset in comfy chairs. If I return to Santorini, I will absolutely stay here again!
