Great location accessible to supermarkets, shops, restaurants and beach. The layout of the place gives the feeling of comfort, accommodating and family friendly. Rooms are cleaned every day. The best service in this place is the bar lady, Anna, who always had a smile for everyone and very helpful at all times. Would highly recommended Polydefkis Apartments and will be more than happy to stay there again.

Lovely room in central location

A lovely clean hotel in a very central position. Reception were very helpful and professional. The pool area was very nice and served by a good bar with efficient friendly staff. The room was well furnished with a modern bathroom. We were travelling with our adult children and had been booked a one bedroom apartment. Unfortunately the layout was strange - a large bedroom with one double and one single bed and the living area with a single sofa bed. However, reception organised the single being moved into the living area. Air conditioning worked really well but was only in the bedroom. This meant it was a little cramped. I’m mentioning this as there seems to be several different room types so it would be best to check that you book one suitable for your family/group.

Great Location & Facilities

We had such a great stay here. Lovely villa, always clean, beds made everyday. Had a kitchenette so we were able to make food if we wanted to. It’s a wonderful location in the centre of Kamari, walking distance to the beach, shops, restaurants. A fabulous pool with plenty of loungers available. Overall great value for money. Highly recommend.

This place has no weak spots “it’s that good”

Amazing stay. I know why people refer to this as a hidden Gem; it’s that good. Location: within 1 block of 4 restaurants, 2 grocery stores, the beach and most importantly the bus stop. Facilities: Clean, quiet, and bulletproof showers. Employees: helpful (got laundry done & delivered), legit smiles, and knowledgeable. If I ever get back to Thera, I will only stay at Polydefkis

Great Apartment Hotel Accomodation

We enjoyed our stay in the apartment. Very clean and friendly staff. Family operated and very attentive. Helped us to and from airport to collect missing baggage. Well priced bar menu and pool is decent. I would at Polydefkis again for sure. Location is ideal in Kamari. Nearby supermarket and bars/restauraints.

Great little Gem

loved the location, literally 1 block from the beach. The property itself is quite beautiful. Lots of flowers, very quaint. The apartments were very nice, we had 2 separate units. Loved that they all had a nice balcony with table and chairs.We sat out on ours every night with our wine. The only complaint I had was the mattress were not the best, not very comfortable, and would have liked a queen vs a full. The pool area was very nice, with loungers. Also had a little bar area, that served drinks, ice cream and food. The prices were very reasonable. The pool closed early 8pm, would have liked a later time, since we toured all day and wanted to come back and relax with a night swim. The place itself was impeccably clean. Breakfast was also a nice perk, enough choices for myself and my teenage boys. I liked that it was a family run property, and everyone was very nice. You can tell they take great pride in there property. I would sooo stay here again if I ever find myself in beautiful Santorini. Also should mention, had a store right across the street and excellent location for the beach and restaurants.

Great location in kamari. Bus around the corner.

It was a good experience, yet we found lots of bugs around the room. Also having to ask everytime we wanted a beach towel was a let down. The pool was nice and clean but closed at 8.

Great location, beautiful rooms.

We had 2 x superior studios for 2 weeks, they were excellent. Very friendly maid service, cleaned every single day. All amenities were to a high standard, everything well thought out with high quality fittings. The kitchen area in each studio was very well equipped. Kamari is an excellent base both to relax and explore the island from. We hired a car for the majority of our stay so did not have to rush around trying to fit everything into a few days. There's absolutely loads to see and do on this island.

A perfect place! (don't tell anyone else though)

I can't say enough good stuff about this place. The comment we heard from another guest sort of sums it up. They have been coming to this hotel every year for the last 8 years. It's attractive, staff are super nice. The breakfast was pretty good. Rooms were modern and elegant. It's centrally located for the whole island. The only negative thing is they don't have parking onsite, but there is a free lot which is a 2-3 minute walk from the hotel. I wish all our stays could be this nice!

This is a great place to stay

This was a great place to stay. Staff friendly and always ready to help. Very clean and well maintained. If you are having any second thoughts about booking this accommodation don't it is a great base to explore the town and the Island. The breakfast is what it is so don't expect too much, but that is not a complaint we loved it. It is just a fact. Pool and Jacuzzi are excellent again clean, well maintain with plenty of sunbeds and a great bar with great staff. Airport transfers can be arranged without any problems. Really enjoyed our time and would go back.
