Villa Ilios

My partner and I have just returned from an amazing stay at Villa Ilios in Halkidiki. This perfect little place is only 5 minutes walk from the beach front and main town. There are plenty of shops, bars and restaurants that will appeal to most. Our recommendation would be to visit the old square where you will find some great food. Villa Ilios is run by an amazing host and owner Sam who cannot do enough for you. He made our stay very special. It's an intimate hotel with 10 rooms so people get to meet up and have a friendly drink which is unique in my opinion. I recommend this wonderful place for couples and families to stay and enjoy a great experience. 10/10 from me. Michael Farrington.

The hotel is clean and comfortable and very easy to get to. 'Fira bus station is a 10 minute walk. Area is safe and has great amenities too. The rooms are super clean and comfortable. Daily room cleaning is also available. Kettle and mini fridge in the room is a great addition. Pool is clean and well kept. We went swimming twice. Staff are really nice, very lovely and always ready to help, especially Irene! She answered all our questions and Villa Ilios really made our stay in Santorini fantastic!!

This place is a real find. Run by a lovely family who are very welcoming. Just down the road from the capital Fira with its breathtaking views of the Caldera, wonderful shops and decent restaurants. Everything you need is a short walk from the Villa. Room was spotlessly clean with very efficient and very quiet split type Air-con. Perfect. There’s a small pool area that is great for hanging out and relaxing for a while at the end of a sightseeing day. The Villa does not serve breakfast but this is not a problem as there is a fantastic bakery just down the road behind the Karterados Bus Stop. They have seating there or you can bring your breakfast back to the Villa and sit by the pool. A very delicious large Ham and Cheese croissant with a latte coffee is less than 5 Euro. Breakfast in Santorini for 5Euro is a bargain! Bus services go right past the Villa and Service most of the island, including the Airport, for a maximum fare of only 2Euro. The bus goes from right outside the Airport Departures and stops just down the road from the Villa at Karterados. Easy walk to the Villa even with luggage and this option will save you a lot of money as Taxis are expensive. This is great value reasonably priced accommodation, given its location and we were impressed at the high standards. The owner is a lovely lady who will always help and give advice for tours and attractions. We will definitely return one day.

Very clean. Looks exactly like photos from booking. Pool is super clean too.

Hotel com ótima localização, super limpo e agradável.

We spent a week at Villa Ilias and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The accommodation was kept spotlessly clean and the garden and outside seating areas also really clean and tidy. The landlady/host was super helpful and always willing to assist. We couldn’t have asked for more. The pool area was lovely with comfortable sun beds always available and sun all day around the pool, until about 6.30 The local area offers a lovely taverna, other grill restaurants, a bakery and a supermarket all within 5 mins walk. Would certainly recommend.

Excellent staffs with their supporting attitude !

This place was spotless. It is no frills but we are budget travelers. The staff was very helpful. The only downside was that the location was noisy. I slept with earplugs at night to solve that.

Everything was great and better than the photos. ( google for updated pics) For the very good price you won't get a 5 star accommodation, but you will get exceptionally clean rooms with fridge and tea/coffee making facilities and a lovely clean pool area. it is beside a busy road but traffic noise didn't trouble us. No food or drinks available on site but supermarket, bakery and cafe bars within a 2 minute walk. Wonderful helpful staff. 10-15 minute walk to center and bus station ( steady incline) Great value. Would recommend.

Hotel is quite good & comfortable but I did not appreciate when I was asked to wait outside in the heat for a long time when I had turned up early and early check-in was not possible. The least I expect from a hotel is to allow a wait at the Reception area. I was specifically told that I could not wait in the Reception area.
