Nice and clean villa in a great location. Easy parking right in front of our unit. Well equipped. Great service (thank you Maria for your hospitality). Great area to walk and dine right behind the property with gorgeous views.

We would definitely stay here again. Cute, clean and spacious 1 bedroom suite. Friendly and helpful front desk staff. Conveniently located. Scenic lookout for Three bells of Fira is a 3-5 minute walk from Villa Fotini.

Maria was lovely and very helpful in organising airport transfers. Apartment was very similar to what you see in the pictures and was quite spacious. Very well priced and convenient location with just a 10 minute walk into main town.

We had a very pleasant stay. Bed was very comfortable, church, shops and the restaurants were 2-5 min walking distance from it. Room and bathroom were nice and very well equipped. Exelent use of space. A/C system was great and Maria was very kind and helpful.We will come again:)

Stay for 3 days. Maria is very helpful. My room has a very nice view, see the blue dome from my balcony. Easy to walk to the church near by. Public parking is cross the street. Quiet at night.

A great location with friendly and helpful staff.

Very welcoming property both from the road and when you open the room door. Convenient to many restaurants, parking and the walking paths around the area.

Very small apartment, but it was fine for one night. Nice water pressure in the shower. Good location. The host lady was super nice and friendly.

Beautiful room! The photos don’t do this room justice, it was beautiful and i had an amazing stay. Just a couple minutes walk away from a great spot to view the sunset and many great restaurants. The host was so friendly and accommodating:)

Highly recommended

Fantastic stay, especially if you’re trying to do Santorini on a budget. You don’t get a caldera view from your room, but if you leave the hotel and walk for 30 seconds you have an unbelievably perfect view of the caldera that’s not too crowded even at sunset. The walk to downtown Fira is short but steep, which wasn’t a problem for us but might not be great if you have mobility issues. The staff were unbelievably friendly and helpful. Unless you’re willing to spend 3-4x as much money, I highly doubt you will find a better place to stay in the Fira area.

Great location

Great location, clean and tidy with balcony. Everything you need in the hotel

Great staff. Good location. In the heart of Fira.

Great property at Firostefani, highest point of Fira with phenomenal views! Plenty of restaurants and some shopping. The apartment was great, literally right next to the main drag on the cliff. Friendly staff and comfortable apartment, we loved it!

A nice and affordable place to stay in Santorini.

It was a very nice stay. Staff Maria was so sweet. The place was convenient, clean, and beautiful.

So close to all of the fun!

What a cute spot to stay, very close to shops and restaurants. We were able to rent a car within a stone's throw from the hotel as well. Great recommendations and the staff was wonderful and accommodating!

Villa Fotini is a lovely and affordable place to stay in the heart of Santorini. Maria at the reception is an incredible host who offered the best recommendations for places to eat, attractions to see, and how to get there. We loved our stay there and treasured every moment. The staff were all very kind and we highly recommend the pickup/drop off service for the airport directly to/from the hotel.

Highly recommend! The receptionist was amazing and so kind. She organised both transfers 1) ferry to hotel and 2) hotel to airport, which made our lives a million times easier. The room was on ground level which was so good considering we had so many suitcases to carry. Everything was in walking distance including the bus that goes to Oia. The receptionist explained everything to us and it was smooth sailing. Clean and spacious room!

5 minutes walk to see the sunset

Place was close to restaurants, less than 5 minutes walk to see the amazing sunset. Accommodation was clean and Maria was helpful. Booked restaurants and organised transport from the airport and to the port.

Good location, close but not directly in the busy touristy area. Nice clean accommodations.

Lady at the front was awesome. Clean place.

Great location with stunning views and restaurants just around the corner. Helpful in booking taxis and providing a luggage room.

Great location if you want to spend time in Fira and Firostefani. Clean facilities, tea and coffee in rooms. Rooms cleaned daily and beach towels provided.

Villa Fotini is in the perfect location, the staff were extremely helpful. The room was clean and a good size with a lovely balcony.

We had a wonderful stay, room was very clean and Marie was so helpful. I highly recommend.

The place is nice and clean. But the rooms aren't very soundproof. Had other hotel guests who open and close their doors very hard when they leave or enter their rooms.

Location was close to main road making it a bit noisy at night but close main area (15min walk). The “hotel” more of a budget friendly place with small room and uncomfortable mattress. Very clean and pleasant staff on the plus side.

Ideal place for a short stay in Fira Town

Clean and well presented. Parking directly outside. Helpful receptionist (Maria). Some nice restaurants close by and only a short few minutes safe walk to Fira town centre and bustle.

The location is very good, and the price is good for that location.

Good location near bus stop and the famous cliff and town

Maria is wonderful. She answered all my emails before arrival. If I needed anything, she was happy to help. The hotel is a short walk up the hill from the town center. But the hotel is close to the main road and thus, it is subject to street noise and early morning trucks that pick hp garbage. For me being a light sleeper, that was problematic. But for my next door neighbors, they did not see that as a problem. The room was clean and adequate for a single traveler. The shower was a bit small but I managed. Hotels in Santorini are expensive. So the Fotini was priced reasonably.

Reasonable value for the location, but the room was small, particularly the shower. The shower head wasn't fixed to the wall, which made it even more challenging.

Basic and beautiful

Villa Fotini is a small and simple hotel perfectly situated by the Caldera. The staff was amazing and we felt extremely well taken care of.

Great Villa

Good location. Good services from the staffs. The price of the room is reasonable. The room that I stayed was facing east which you can see the sunrise with just sitting at the balcony. Less than 5 mins walking distance that you can reach a public area that you can enjoy the beautiful sunset and Santorini view. 10 mins walking distance to Fira where you can find a lot of cheap eat. We highly recommend Villa Fotini for the stay at Santorini.

Great Experience

Very nice location. Easy to get everywhere on the island that we wanted to go. Its just off the main walking strip so it was a nice break and we could save some money. Staff was really helpful with everything we asked for.

Convenient!

The apartment is close to Fira and a bus stop going to Oia is jus outside which is pretty convenient! Staff is friendly and they provided transportation between the airport! I have my own balcony as well which is so nice!! I enjoy so much when I stayed there!

Awesome experience, hotel close to everything my wife and I fall in love with Santorini in all aspects. 😍😍👍🏽

Great place

Host coould not have been more accomodating. Gave detailed instructions on how to check in late, helepd with info from airport and around town. Helped us get tot next destination. VERY VERY Good Hostess!!

Nice, walking distance to shops, restaurants

Friendly staff, good location. Quiet area. A small breakfast but enough to start the day.

A GREAT LITTLE HOTEL IN A MAGIC LOCATION

Villa Fotini is a great little hotel. Hostess Maria was very helpful and it was great to have her father waiting for us at the airport after a tiring flight. The location is great, only a few minutes from the centre of Santorini, and very close to the spectacular Caldera views.

Maria is verry nice and wellcoming. Room and bathroom small. Good location.

Great Hotel for Budget Travelers

Best location in Thira, Santorini. Very clean room. Great Hospitality. The hotel facility is very basic, but you get what you pay for. I booked this hotel as a backup plan because everything else was full at the time. However I got busy ended up did not have time to look later. It took my family a couple of days to get use to the simple condition of this hotel. But the location and the cleanest of the hotel made up for it. It is a great hotel for budget travelers.

Very basic room in central location

The room was too basic to be pleasant. Only because of its central Thira location it was suitable for a short stay. Villa's parking is small, not easily accessible, and shouldn't be relied upon. We were advised by the car rental agent not to park there because the road could be blocked by utility vehicles. However, the public parking is located nearby and could be used if there is space available. When we arrived in the early afternoon, the hostess who speaks English wasn't available. The lady that met us didn't speak English and only gave us the key. In the morning we asked the hostess about the suggestions for sightseeing. She advised to take a walk along the path between Thira and Oia towards the old port and then take a boat to the volcano. We ended up being very disappointed trying to follow her advice. We were not prepared to the smell left from the donkeys on the part of the path closer to the cable car and ended up not going there. Using a different road to avoid the smell we met the crowds of tourists and had to stay and wait until they passed us by on the narrow street.

Nice pension

Maria and family were very accommodating to our needs. She printed our vouchers and gave us good suggestions for dinner. Decor is very basic but room is clean, ac was cold in our room but bed was a little too firm. We would definitely recommend this place for people on a budget but still would like a nice, clean place to stay. Villa is located about a 10 minute walk into Fira center. Very easy to navigate around town from location. Beautiful caldera view and path right behind villa.

Great value..location..

We booked a pricey hotel on the cliffs of fira stefani for most of our trip. Decided to use a lesser priced hotel for first night due to late arrival at night and to keep our budget in check. Villa fotini was a perfect location and a wonderful place for any one who wants to visit santorini but is on a budget

Very nice hotel

Very nice hotel. Price is reasonable.

Nice and cozy hotel

Beautiful and cozy hotel, the host is very helpful and professional. They provide port and airport pick up and send off. Good budget and convenient.

Good Hotel at excellent location

Hotel was very good in Firostefani convenient to take public bus to Oia. Walking from hotel to Firo city center has amazing views. Breakfast costs Euro 5 was very normal - so if you want good one - need to try outside. With a 5 minute walk you reach out to the iconic blue church facing sea - overall value for money!

great location

We had a great stay and Maria was amazing.

Comfortable & friendly inn in a great location

This family-run hotel is a wonderful place to stay near Fira. The location is excellent: a 10 minute walk to Fira, located near a scenic walking path, and across the street from the bus stop to Oia. Our room was clean, spacious, and well cared for. It feels like a budget hotel in terms of the furnishings and decor (not "luxurious"), but everything was very clean, functional, and comfortable. The staff were very helpful and friendly, and they provided a shuttle to and from the harbor.

A short step from the famous caldera.

For a reasonably priced and friendly hotel you won't do much better than the Villa Fotini. Maria as others have said on this site is a charming and friendly host and a mine of information. I had a room overlooking the road which some might not like as it could be a bit noisy at nights but has the bonus of being able to sit on the balcony and watch life pass by whilst enjoying an evening drink. The hotel is immaculate and always smelled fresh and clean which was down to the very hard working staff. The only real drawback was the walls are thin and no floors are carpeted so if other guests are noisy coming in at night you will be disturbed. Breakfast is an extra small cost but I found was good value and of a generous size. Fira is a short walk away along the path by the caldera - wear sensible shoes, I saw many with bandaged ankles who had clearly fallen on the uneven path.
