Guest Reviews

- Mary (10/5): - The family who owns the property makes you feel like you are apart of their family. So kind, very quick response times, and great experience overall!
- Shawn (10/5): - Oustanding family run boutique hotel/restaurant. Emi and her parents momma and Poppa just great people, wonderful food, highly recommend!
- Marie Frédérique (10/5): - I had such a wonderful stay here! The hotel is family-run, and you can really feel the warmth and care in the way the staff treat their guests. Everyone was so kind and welcoming, which made the experience extra special. The property itself is spotless, well taken care of, and offers absolutely stunning views of Santorini. It’s the perfect place to relax and enjoy the island. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Santorini!
- Andrea (10/5): - Highly recommend this property! A family run hotel where they truly make you feel like family. walk into town
- Kim (10/5): - We absolutely loved our stay at Villa Galinia. Would definitely come back again. We loved how you were treated just like family… best ever vacation experience.
- Victoria (10/5): Fantastique - Séjour très agréable ! Hôtel familial, aux petits soins pour que l’on s’y sente bien. Très calme, bonne literie. Très belle vue sur la mer ! On recommande +++
- Xavier (10/5): - Hôtel familial trés propre et avec une équipe trés agréable, à l'écoute. Le ménage dans la chambre est fait tous les jours. L'hôtel propose plusieurs services permettant de faciliter les déplacements et d'apprécier au mieux le séjour. Je conseille vivement.
- Sylvia (10/5): - Wonderful view, very friendly people. I had not realized that they would have picked me up at the bus station. Recommend calling them so that they can pick you up. The food was excellent! Thank you, Amy and your whole family for taking good care of me.
- Rodonna (8/5): - The place was nice and clean. Food was good. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
- Susan (10/5): - Excellent hotel. Very clean. Hotel staff was wonderful. I would definitely stay here again.
- Kelsey Alexandria (10/5): - Staff was so kind to me, and treated my daughter and I like family. We felt so welcome and the food was also incredible. Everything about this place was amazing. The view was also just to die for. It made my 33rd birthday one for the books. Thank you Villa Galinia for making my stay so worth while and memorable. Highly recommend this hotel.
- Kathryn (10/5): - The owners of the hotel made us feel so welcome and looked after. Nothing was too much to ask for. The hotel is spotless and has beautiful views of the caldera and is very well situated with local shops and a bus stop for Fira a 10 minute walk away. There is also a quad bike rental place next door to the hotel where we got an amazing price for our rental. I cannot recommend this hotel strongly enough, thank you for making our holiday perfect!
- Sierra (10/5): - Extremely welcoming and accommodating family, happy to help you with all things Santorini! Beautiful location, scenic and peaceful away from the crowds of Fira and Oia.
- ibtissam (10/5): - Un séjour parfait !
- Maddlyne (10/5): Séjour en amoureux - Personnel très gentil et à l’écoute. Vraiment au petit soin et souriant. La chambre a été nettoyé tous les jours. Par contre petit dej manque de choix seul point négatif.
- Erin (10/5): - This place was friendly and the rooms were exceptionally clean.
- Hai H (10/5): - Great place and friendly staff.
- William (10/5): - Property is very nice and relaxing (had to find it with help from Google Maps listed as a "restaurant"). It is up a hill. Room was very good, clean, olive oil soap, balcony, view. Staff friendly, good breakfast. Akrotiri is a more secluded area, it is walkable through pathways to a few shops.
- DIEGO (10/5): - We stood only for two nights but it was really good. Nice people, bilingual and bery friendly. I recommend this hotel for your family.
- Andres (10/5): - Fantastic location away from crowds, lovely staff, great breakfast. Note, loud birds at morning.
- damien (10/5): Un hôtel reposant à Santorin - Une institution familiale bien tenue. Les propriétaires sont au petit soin. L’établissement est un peu isolée a 10mn de l’arrêt de bus pour Fira, mais pour le coup au calme surtout par rapport à la foule de Fira. La vue sur mer est belle et l’hôtel faisant restaurant, il est pratique d’y prendre les dîners. Cuisine simple mais savoureuse et d’un excellent rapport qualité prix pour Santorin.
- Carly (10/5): - They were absolutely wonderful, we felt like we were home the entire time. Highly recommend!
- Marc (10/5): Vacances tout confort - Hotel avec belle vue. Accueil impeccable. Personnel gantil et prévenant. Tout parfait
- Eve (10/5): - Excellent stay, I would love to go back!
- hernan (8/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff
- Antonello (10/5): - La struttura è carina , pulita ed il personale molto gentile.
- Vellet (10/5): - Tout était parfait !
- Miss (10/5): Amazing stay, Santorini is magical! - The most amazing stay at Villa Galinia. The family that run the villa were incredibly welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The accommodation was clean, the breakfast fresh and tasty and the views simply stunning. I fell in love with my room & the location & will certainly be back again soon. Thank you!
- kimberley (10/5): - The staff and owner could not be nicer, super helpful in arranging our taxi for an early morning departure and packing us a takeaway breakfast to go.
- Jason (10/5): Villa Galinia was great! - This location was great! Great views. The staff made the stay even more of a great experience! I recommend this location to anyone visiting Santorini.
- Clémentine (10/5): Belle chambre moderne pour une escapade à Santorin - Nous avons passé une nuit à la Villa Galinia. La chambre était très bien équipée et joliement décorée. La salle de bain était particulièrement spacieuse et moins rustique que dans la plupart des hôtels grecs (moderne et bien décorée !). Nous avons apprécié le jacuzzi dans la chambre. A noter toutefois qu'il faut prévoir des boules Quies car la ventilation est très bruyante la nuit ! Terrasse agréable devant la chambre. Accueil très chaleureux. Le restaurant sur place est très bon et la terrasse est agréable avec une vue panoramique. Petit déjeuner copieux ! Situation géographique proche du phare de Santorin pour profiter du coucher de soleil, et au calme.
- Virginie (10/5): Très bien - Hôtel familial très bien entretenu Emi à la réception est exceptionnellement gentille et disponible pour tout La chambre deluxe est très jolie et très bien entretenue mais la clim est bruyante (Impossible de dormir sans, il fait vraiment trop chaud) Le jacuzzi intérieur est bien. La maman fait à manger pour le restaurant et c'est tellement bon! Le petit déjeuner est bien (pas exceptionnel) L'hôtel est en hauteur donc pour revenir du petit centre d'Akrotiri c'est dur ;-) Il y a des très bons restaurants en centre ville, ainsi que pharmacie et supermarché. Pas loin des Black, white et red beach accessibles en taxi boat pour 10€/pers. Attention ce sont des petites plages. Le coucher de soleil au phare est superbe et il y a des jolis restau à côté. La piscine est plus petite qu'il n'y parait sur la photo et il y a peu de transats. Je recommande cet hôtel pour l'extrême gentillesse des gérants
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The staff were extremely helpful.
- Bjorn (8/5): Aangenaam verblijf in mooie, nette kamers - Wij hadden een aangenaam verblijf in Villa Galinia, verzorgde, nette kamers, mooi uitzicht, goede locatie op wandelafstand van het centrum. Het zwembad is fijn met een aantal ligbedden. Het geserveerde ontbijt was goed maar niet top, elke dag toast met het gewone beleg, watermeloen en een eitje samen met nog een zoetigheid geserveerd.
- Vincent (10/5): - Très bonne adresse pour un séjour au calme dans un cadre familial et chaleureux.
- Bhaskar (8/5): - It's a well maintained property with helpful staff and a nice overall experience. However the area it's located in is at a fair distance from most of the real touristy spots of Santorini and hence the place feels a bit overpriced.
- Nikolai (10/5): Спасибо - Очень красивое место, прекрасный вид, и замечательные люди которые сделали наше пребывание ещё приятнее. Работники отеля все кто нам попадался очень отзывчивые и милые, большое им спасибо за это. Советую брать улучшенный номер. Там и вид лучше, и номер очень красивый.
- Gina (8/5): Wonderful Hosts! - The proprietors were amazing and welcoming. The property was lovely, and the rooms were nice. Like many beds we experienced in Greece, they were a bit firm and in need of an upgrade if you were going to spend a week there. The breakfast and hosts more than made up for it though! We would love to visit again!
- Verified traveler (6/5): Kleines Hotel mit wenig Komfort - Das Zimmer hat wenig Licht. Die Ausstattung ist sehr dürftig. Kühlschrank verostet. Das Doppelbett misst nur 140cm. Die Matratze ist sehr hart. Frühstück Auswahl minim. Preis- Leistung könnte besser sein. Es gibt einen Pool, Liegestühle aber keine Sonnenschirme.
- Mauricio Laredo (10/5): ótima estadia - um bom hotel, gestores muito solícitos, tudo perfeito.
- icke (10/5): Kleines Hotel mit Pool mit Blick in die Caldera - Nettes privat geführtes Hotel mit eigenen Pool. Die Lage ist sehr ruhig, bis nach Thira und zum Flughafen sind es etwa 5 Minuten.
- MAROULA (10/5): Όλα ήταν πραγματικά υπέροχα! - Υπέροχοι ιδιοκτήτες άνετα και καθαρά δωμάτια.Πλούσιο πρωινό φτιαγμένο με μεράκι από την κυρία Αργυρό.
- Damiano e Cater (6/5): Residence tranquillo a 2 passi da Akrotiri - Struttura discreta con piccola piscina. Per gli spostamenti al mare è meglio utilizzare il motorino o l'auto, mentre il centro di Akrotiri può essere raggiunto a piedi.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Perfetto - Camera con terrazzo molto carina pulizia impeccabile personale top!
