Great location! The views from Vrachia are amazing and a perfect place to watch the sunset away from the crowds. The bus stop is also right next to the hotel, which was very convenient. The receptionist Klaudio was very helpful and was always available if we needed anything. He helped us with transportation, laundry, and booking excursions. The room was very clean and there was daily housekeeping service. We would definitely stay here again!

Nice getaway from busy streets of Santorini

Very nice place to stay and relax away from all the busy streets of Oia and Fira. Vrachia is set on the outskirts of just about everything, the only thing I can highly recommend is to absolutely have a CAR to move around the island. Walking or public bus is virtually non existent. The pool is very nice and soothing after a long day of visiting in hot weather. Staff is ok, breakfast could be better if they would add more variety.. greek yogourt gets repetitive after a few days... All in all a recommended place but again only if you have a car.

Beautiful hotel on the water

We arrived after midnight and were greeted warmly and shown to our room. The staff were wonderfully friendly and willing to help in any way. For a small price, we were driven into the village of Oia and picked up at the end of the day as well and brought back to the hotel. The pool is great and the view is amazing. Just a short walk down the steps is a beach as well. The breakfast was satisfying and especially handy was having the small kitchenette in the room. We would definitely stay here again when visiting Santorini!

Nice place with a very good and helpful service by the manager, Sotritis. The daily housekeeping ensured that the rooms were clean and towels wee fresh. Closeness to a beach and swimming pool helped keeping the kids happy.

Beautiful apartments by the sea

This was a beautiful place to stay, I had room #7... I think the best in the complex. Artemis was great and very helpful. You need transportation to stay there and it is easy to get it in the island. The hotel is situated right by the sea and there is a private beach for the patrons. The small apartments are very cozy and nicely decorated.

Nice sunset view hotel that needs transportation

The hotel is about 5km away from Oia town and you definitely need transportation to go and out of the hotel. It is more suitable for people who rent a car. Even to get dinner we had to walk for 1.5km - 2km (about 40 min). The hotel has a very good sea view even from the room balcony (provided you book a seaview room). Perfect for only rest and relax but if you enjoy shopping and happening stuff this might not be your choice. The room comes with traditional design and the furniture and cooking utensil looked quite old indeed. The room we stayed in was quite stink with bad drainage system and the water overflew when we used basin to wash clothes. The tap water here is not edible as it taste salty. If you need a lot of drinking water please buy the 1.5 liters mineral water from restaurants or mini market. Other than that, the host was friendly and down to earth. Breakfast is prepared beforehand and kept in the fridge for the next day's consumption. So, bread was hard and it was not convenient to make coffee and cook egg. Maybe I'm simply a bad cook.

Lovely quiet hotel

Arrived early but staff stored our luggage and offered us a ride to Oia. Owners son had a cafe in Oia where we had breakfast and took in the breathtaking views. When we came back the room was ready, clean and spacious. Lovely view over the ocean and a sense of tranquillity. Lovely place if you want to relax away from the busy Oia. It was no problem getting to the hotel with a taxi from the airport.

Nice hotel on the beach

It is a bit far and isolated, but of you rent a car, or bike you will love it! Very friendly staff and helpful. I am not the type of person that repeats the same hotels, as I am always looking to experience new things, but If I wasn't like that, would stay again there.

Cheap and cheerful, on the beach but not in oia.

This hotel is not in oia! The map doesn't work out the address properly. We were surprised to find on our arrival at oia bus station that the hotel is in another village called Baxedes, which is 4km away on the north coast. We luckily caught one of the few buses to Baxedes (taxis wont go, it's not far enough) and then walked 15 minutes east to Vrachia. Apart from this, the hotel is just fine, it is right on the beach with its own steps down, and the owner was nice enough to pick us up in his van (by chance) and take us to oia on our first morning where we could rent an ATV and have easy travel for the rest of our stay. The room was clean and airy with simple but nice decor, kitchen served well enough for a takeaway, and the breakfast provided was basic but welcome. No problems with air con or hot water, and we still got the gorgeous oia sunsets!

Not in Oia!!

The details are misleading as the location is nowhere near Oia. Or indeed anything else. So for self catering there is no ability to get water, food etc unless you get a Taxi to Oia and this costs 10 Euro a time. That is if you can get a taxi as there are no reception staff and no telephone to call for a taxi. Misleading is an understatement.

Breakfast included

Isolated, a few kms to Oia. Need to rent a car or bike. Newer hotel. The deciding factor between it and another was "breakfast included". Breakfast consisted of half a loaf of stale bread, some pats of butter and jam, I jug of premixed juice and corn flakes in an unsealed container. No toaster or milk. Would be better to not insult their customers with the offer of breakfast! Was greeted by a woman who did not speak English, never saw her again. Did not appear to be service on site.

Cudny widok

Lokalizacja. Przy małej prywatnej plaży. Kamienistej. Zejście bezpośrednio z hotelu. Widok ze studio a najlepiej z apartamentów na morze i zachód słońca zostanie z nami na długo. Są trzy poziomy pokoji z tych na dolnym poziomie widok jedynie na dziedziniec i basen. Nie będziecie żałować wydanych pieniędzy na te wyżej usytuowane na morze. Śniadania monotonne. Do miejscowości Oia 6 minut samochodem. Aneks kuchenny skromny ale wystarczy na ugotowanie makaronu lub ryżu.
