Kalya Suites

Another superb stay at Kalya Suites, the hotel is a modern clean place, there are many nice hotels in Kamari however the people make your holiday, Thankyou to the team, Demeteri and his father the manager cannot do enough for you! Lovely genuine people Thankyou for looking after us this week, see you again in the future! James and Alice

Just back from my second stay at Kalya Suites this year and cannot wait to return next year. What an amazing, calm, friendly, clean, relaxing place to stay. From the moment you are greeted at the gate by the lovely, friendly Lefteris until the moment he waves you off again, you are made to feel most welcome and very safe. Nothing is too much trouble for all of the staff here and you are treated as friends. Dimitri on the bar is so nice and happy to give any advice he can on where to visit in Santorini. What a lovely young man. The accommodation is spotlessly clean and the well stocked minibar and snacks are a nice bonus. A couple of things would make the holiday even better. An upgraded bathroom and the reinstatement of breakfast in the room. I’d even pay extra for that! If you want a lovely relaxing holiday on the beautiful island of Santorini, then this is the place. Thank you once again Kalya. See you next year!

This is perhaps the loveliest hotel I have stayed in! To start, the decor was absolutely stunning. The paintwork was perfect, minimalist furniture which made the rooms look so much bigger. Ambience was divine. Staff were very pleasant and so welcoming- it felt like you were with friends. Absolutely beautiful.

Staff: Savva, Lefteris, Demitri & Cleaners. All absolutely amazing, lovely & helpful. Nothing too much for them. No need to book things in advance as they can sort everything for you at better prices. The entire complex is exceptionally clean - rooms, pool, bar. Spotless. Fab modern rooms. We had a family split level suite. Nice & airy. Excellent aircon. Would’ve liked more storage space. Spacious balcony. Lovely pool open from 8-8 (bar from 11am). Comfortable sun loungers x16 which isn’t enough for all guests. Most of the time that’s fine, but on a couple of busy days there were bed wars - perhaps adding a few tables & chairs in the corners would help. Aeroplane noise no problem. Not that frequent & over in seconds. Very kindly gave us a little later check out. Food: there isn’t anywhere on site to get food, but there is an affiliate with an amazing local restaurant just 70 steps away called Soul by Splash. Totally fantastic service, food & drinks. This is where breakfast is served. Something delicious & different everyday. However if it’s not to your taste they can make you something different. I’ve also put a separate review on TA. I’ve been to all inclusive hotels where I’ve had to walk further for breakfast so this nice walk towards the beach was nothing. Lovely beach. 100 steps from the complex. Wind dependent. On a calm day it’s as clear as a home bath. On windy days the current was very strong. Definitely invest in some water shoes beforehand or they sell them in the local shops. Mini-market: just 30 steps from the complex, for drinks, ice creams, snacks & souvenirs. Next to it is a coffee shop with the best doughnuts. Referred to: Nektar restaurant in Fira, Catamaran Sunset cruise. Both excellent. Separate reviews on TA. Transfers, Taxi, Car Hire, Excursions: book via hotel as good prices. Airport tip: Actually cheaper to buy onboard the aircraft! A small bottle of Pepsi was €5 & a plain boring sandwich was €7! Highly recommend this hotel & would definitely go back in a heartbeat.

My husband and I have just returned from 5 days in santorini. I firmly believe in leaving reviews whether good or bad to help future couples alike in where to stay and what to do. Kalya suites is exceptionally clean We arranged a private transfer from the airport through savvas the manager. All responses from him were so prompt and so informative.the transfer cost is €25. When we arrived we were met by dimitrious he works in reception and the bar and essentially him and his dad run this little gem. He literally opened the door and when we walked in the character and cleanliness just stood out. Check in was the best weve ever experienced in a small resort We booked ground floor pool view suite and it was beautiful, spacious,everything you needed in it and so clean. Every morning 2 ladies from accomodation clean literally every inch of the suites out by the pool and of course your own room. Leaving a different towel art every morning from swans to flowers. Polite and friendly every morning you were greeted with a smile and "good morning" this by far leads to the overall experience we had. Breakfast is in splash restaurant and let's face it absolutely stunning beach front views every morning. The food is unbelievable and again the staff especially a lovely young lady every morning looked after us so well. The food is all homemade with 3 courses for breakfast. She explained the menu every morning and also most of the produce was home grown in their own garden. The taste was just unbelievable. Kamari is definitely the best part of the island to stay in. The promenade is lined with pretty restaurants and bars and shops. The bus stop for local trips to oia and fira was so great only 2euro single way. We took bus to fira early in the morning and then from fira to oia where we experienced the beautiful costal landscape and of course the famous blue dome churches. Oia is far more expensive but we only went for a fab iced coffee with the most amazing views of caldona. The weather was beautiful not a cloud in the sky but hot in 30s. In terms of drink it's little cheaper than ireland but their own produced wine was beautiful and ranged from 5 to 7 euro per glass. There's a cobbler in kamari who makes his own leather sandals and my husband and I bought a pair each. Again amazing service for a fraction of the cost of home. People on the island like locals are so friendly so happy and its the most relaxed island to visit, it's not commercialised in any way and it's so clean. Yes it's a bit barron when your on the bus or in a cab but there's no huge buildings or flats. We took the sunset catamaran cruise reccomended by the hotel staff and it didn't disappoint. It cost 160 each we were picked up at 3pm dropped home at 9pm. Free drinks wine water minerals only downside the fridge wasn't cold and they had no ice. I did pass this feedback on so they could look at it. The cruise stops at 3 beaches where you can swim and snorkel and they have life jackets to
