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.

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.

Pros:

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!

Pros:

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.
