We had a lovely stay at the Margarenia Hotel. It’s small and clean, with lovely bright rooms and a great pool area. We were really well looked after by Margarita and Angela, who were friendly, knowledgeable and always keen to help. It’s located in a quiet area, which suited us fine and a short walk from the beach. I would definitely go back.

Lovely hotel in a great location in a quieter part of the island. The maisonette room was perfect for our family of 4. It was meticulously clean and had everything we needed. The whole staff were so kind, friendly and welcoming. We will come back - and will miss the hotel cats!

Do not stay at this property!!! OWNER is no where to be found did not return my calls bugs everywhere!! Did not sleep up till 4 am had a early flight!! It’s a shame ruined our trip in Greece. All over floor, found dead bugs in bed, in sheets, and by the door. Big piles around floor. It is not what it looks like. Girl who checked us in was nice. Other than that STAY AWAY. Got not even 50$ back. A shame. Save ur money and it’s isolated.

Margerenia was a lovely hotel, the flowers were in full colour. The pool was clean. The rooms despite being minimalistic due to Covid 19 were pretty and cleaning standard was excellent. From contact before, the care throughout the stay right until home time we couldn’t of asked for better. We were signposted to some amazing sights so was really able to make the most of our time on the island. Margerita who manages the day to day running of the hotel was a diamond, even keeping an eye on me when I was taken unwell. Sending friends and relatives there and we will be returning.

Really lovely hotel

Our stay was really lovely, the hotel is really clean and welcoming, the staff are amazingly kind and helpful, you are close to shops and beach, the bus stop is also only a few minutes walk from the hotel, so is the car rental place with very reasonable prices, the pool area is one of the cleanest I have ever seen, the hotel will help you if you need, we had an amazing time staying there and were really sad the day we had to leave, I recommend staying here very highly

Loved the new modern style of the apartment which set this apart from others in the area around a similar price. Very clean upon arrival and a cleaner came daily too. Margarita was an excellent welcoming host and gave us some great advice during the trip on restaurants and travel. My only minor complaint was the pressure in the shower, however plumbing/water is difficult in Santorini so I can’t hold that against the apartment. Highly recommend!
