Our favourite stay in Santorini was at Kalya Suites! The hotel was absolutely amazing, and our room was spacious, clean and modern. The balconies were private and ours offered a beautiful view on the sea where we were served breakfast in the morning. The staff was amazing! We had arranged transportation from the airport to Kalya Suites, and three staff members were awaiting us at the entrance of the hotel helping us with our luggage and with the check-in process. The pool was super quiet and peaceful, with bar service offered from morning to late evening. Other hotels on the Main Street across the beach were not that private, and we felt very fortunate to have book at Kalya Suites for more privacy. The hotel is also located a minute walk away from the beach, restaurants and shops on the main street but far enough from the relatively loud downtown Kamari. We are already hoping to come back soon, and would definitely recommend!

We stayed at Kalya Suites from May 1-May 7. We had an excellent stay. As soon as we arrived, the welcome party was there, Savvas, Popi, Kali, and John (not sure if that's how his name is spelled.) The hotel room was spacious, with a balcony- good view of the water. the hotel has a very nice pool area- unfortunately we were not able to enjoy it because its was cool during those days, and we were always on the go. Daily breakfast is served in your room, for the specific time that you request- just be sure to check the food items for the next day. Best of all is the staff- they are the most accommodating, patient, and easy to talk to. Savvas is the best- whenever we needed something, or help- he has the answer, and he will take care of it. He was always available, and always had a bright smile. Popi, and Betty- the front desk staff- so pleasant, and personable. Never a dull moment with them. The other staff members were very helpful as well. The hotel is accessible to the beach, and the restaurants. The hotel is in Kamari- seaside area, and it is more laid back, accessible to a lot of things. If in the future I return to Santorini, Kalya Suites will be my hotel of choice. Thank you Savvas, and staff for making our stay a memorable one.

We had a fantastic stay at the Kalya Suites (again). The rooms have been renovated and are now very on trend. The mattress was the most comfortable I have ever slept on and the mini bar was a great addition to the room, cold drinks on tap!. The breakfast served on the terrace was superb. The staff are all so friendly and helpful from the cleaners to the management. Due to coronavirus we deliberately avoid the pool area on this visit but that was personal choice, the pool is great though. We would definitely return again & again.

A very good choice
A good choice of hotel. We were very happy there. I would have given 10/10 perfect score but for the bathroom which was very, very small, and in common with many other places, the shower curtain just was not good enough to keep water from straying outside. Otherwise it was very good. The bedroom was great. The whole place was clean and the breakfast excellent. Location could hardly be better.

Loved everything about this place. But (and it's a big "but"), the hotel and nearby beach are located in the flight path of planes coming into the nearby airport. I don't know if this pattern is everyday but it was all day and part of the night while we were there. Quite loud!

Pia

Disliked: Cleanliness
Property was disappointing overall and would not recommend this place. Cleanliness of the room was an issue. The shelf beneath the sink was dirty- full of dust and dirt. Floor of the room felt sticky from the cleaning product they use. On my last day, the water wouldn’t quite drain from the shower and when I looked at the drain, i pulled out clumps of hair. Granted it was my hair, but clearly they didn’t clean it for several days. stayed a week and midweek, I placed the bath mat towel in the corner of the bathroom to indicate I wanted a new one. They just put it right back. The next day, I crumpled it and put it by the door. Nope, still put it back but this time, they flipped the bath mat to the other side. I had to tell them I wanted a new bath mat towel. Also, breakfast was supposed to be served from 8 AM to 10 AM. Breakfast was never ready at 8 am- the girl who whose job it was to put out the food was just getting ready to put the food out at 8 am while checking her phone, eating her cereal, and trying to wake up. I had a tour booked who were coming to pick me up at 8:30. Needless to say, I didn’t have breakfast that day, except for a slice of ham and cheese. Breakfast is mediocre- don’t expect much. Lastly, I would think twice about eating the fruit salad. I saw the girl coughing while cutting the fruit to put in the bowl- doesn’t have a clue about basic food hygiene. The same girl also cleans the room- hello dirty room.

Really nice hotel
Very nice facilities, lovely room, and good location if you want to be near the airport. Good pool, and lots of extras in the room. Unfortunately the wifi was pretty average and dropped out lots, but that will be a function of how many people are using it. The hotel claimed they never got my transfer request even though I had a ‘sent’ confirmation, which made arrival pretty awkward. Other than that, we would recommend it.

Very nice!
Close to everything. No need to pay the ridicules price for a private transport or a taxi from the airport. Just take the public bus to Fira and then to Kamari. 40 euros vrs 3.60. Your decision. The hotel is very nice. Lots of very nice restaurants nearby. A supermarket almost in front of it. The staff was very nice, and Maria, the owner, very helpful. The other Maria is a very nice lady as well. The place is Very clean and quiet. I always carry my earplugs everywhere I go. No need in this place. I definitely recommend it, and would be happy to stay there again.

Good value for money for families
One of the better and more affordable areas of Santorini. Located in a peaceful lane. There is only one house between the Kamari beach and Kalya Suites (this hotel). Very good access to the beach. Bus station is 10 minutes' walk. A lot of reasonable beachside cafes and restaurants around. Overall very nice place. We had a family suite (2 adults and 2 kids). The 4-person suites are on the upper floor without lift/elevator. That was a problem for us because we had a lot of luggage. Secondly, the kids' beds were on the upper mezzanine floor in the suite, whose ceiling height is at most 4.5 feet. At the entrance to the upper mezzanine floor, the ceiling height is less than 3 feet. So getting in/out of those beds was a challenge even for kids. Pool is small. No jacuzzi. Breakfast has good variety. We are vegetarian but we could eat. Tomato/Cucumber, cheese slices, few varieties of bread, Cereal, milk, coffee, cookies, cake slices - was more than enough. There was also a grilled sandwich maker, which helped making nice sandwiches. One small problem - when we asked to warm to milk for kids, they refused to do so. Also, they did not have ketchup (which was strange). Overall, good value for money.
