Nomikos Villas

I would stay here again in a heartbeat. The service is exceptional, the rooms were large (for EU standards) and the views - amazing. We stayed in room 12, it had a private veranda with a table for 2, a lounge chair, and directly across from a private hot tub -- all of which had amazing views of the sea / cliffs. Giga(SP?) (gee-gha), is one of the staff - he's so nice, friendly, a true gem. One note I will make, is that the hotel was hard to find - we had to ask a local after being dropped off by the cab. The hotel is back on a little path, not on the main pedestrian path. But once you are on the right path, it's easy to find. I'd recommend the hotel to add a hand-drawn map to show how to get there.

What a find! Nomikos Villas is a lovely small complex with the rooms surrounding the pool and stunning views out across the Sea and Volcano. The Breakfast is made to your requirements and delivered to the place of your choice (we chose to eat by the pool) All the staff are really friendly and full of advise about the island - pool/beach towels are provided and the rooms are cleaned to a lovely standard daily. This hotel is really cheap for the area and worth trying as I think you'll be really pleasantly surprised. Their is a large array of restaurants and 'things to do' around the hotel however hire a car one day and explore the island. The only negative was the slow wifi. You may want to call them when you first arrive as the streets are a bit of a maze and the bell boy will amaze you with his strength with the ability to carry all your bags!

About 15 minutes drive from the main port. 15 minutes walk from Thira (20-25 minutes hike when returning back to the hotel). 5 minutes walk Agios Gerasimos square. Might take a while to figure out exactly how to get there but ask anyone and they would know the place and point you to the right direction. Lots of nice cafes, restaurants and bars around. Gorgeous little hotel with breath taking magnificent views of the caldera and the famous Santorini sunset from your balcony. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful and accommodating. Lovely and clean room. Comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast.

this hotel was absolutely amazing. the pictures don't do it justice. Ask for room 4, it is above the pool and you can look out to the volcano while laying in your bed

This hotel is set amoungst the hotels in the postcards that promote Santorini. It is the place to stay. You can walk to all the key activity centres from here. Be aware that outside this location You will require transport and it is quite barren between the out of town resorts and the main town. As per many Greek hotels, they did not have a shower nozzle holder. When staff realised that we were not familiar with showering with one hand, the fitted the holder - we did not need to ask.

Natalie, Sotiris , Giga , Natalia and Helena went out of their way to ensure we had a pleasant and memorable stay. Views are simply amazing and so close to great restaurants.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Nomikos. We had a great view off our balcony (room 10 I think). The rooms are quaint and cozy. The hotel is literally built into the side of the mountain which was neat but two drawbacks: 1) I stand at 6'2" so I came home with a few dents on the head (the rock will always win that battle) and 2) the humidity was pretty high in the room. Be sure to keep the bathroom closed and vent on during a shower...that was our mistake. The staff made the trip that much more enjoyable. They were always extremely helpful and welcoming. We lost our luggage upon arriving in Santorini and they went above and beyond in pointing us towards affordable replacements (to avoid tourist pricing :) and helping us with some expedient laundry. We would visit here again!

Incredible staff, Soriri, Natalia, Yiya, Elena and all the others. Ask and they shall make it happen, reservations, recommendations, transportation, etc. Close to centre of Fira. Far enough to be away from the cruise ship crowds. Traditional rooms add to the experience of Greece. Not a single complaint. Bravo

Cute hotel with gorgeous views across Fira - ask for room 12 for the best terrace. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The bed was rather hard and uncomfortable but rooms were very clean.

We just stayed there for two nights, after staying in Oia for 2 nights, and loved it. The views from our room were amazing - and we got to eat breakfast on our balcony each morning. It was a great location and we were able to easily walk to restaurants each night. It was very hard to find when we arrived though - as none of the little alleys have names. Would recommend calling ahead of time to arrange to meet at a meeting place so they can show you where it is. The bed was stiff, but it was at the other hotel we stayed at too, so it may be a Greek thing. Overall, would recommend it!
