Hotels Near Vlychada Beach in Santorini

Absolutely loved this hotel - great choice - from Stavroula at reception as well as her entire staff to the spacious rooms and gorgeous views - can't wait to return next year. The pool is fabulous with amazing views. This location is just perfect - away from the crowds in Fira, yet close enough to get to with a taxi. First time staying in Pyrgos and loved it. Cutest town with plenty of fantastic restaurants to choose from and this hotel is a very short walk into the town.

Fabulous, family run hotel, wouldn't hesitate to recommend. The accommodation was modern, extremely clean and comfortable. The pool was perfect and the kindness of the staff was lovely and extended to them sharing their Easter lunch with us. We will return and have already recommended the hotel and resort to family and friends :)

Summary: This hotel is not suitable for anyone with mobility issues as it is all hills and steps (pretty steep, slippery and lots of them!). We will not be recommending or returning to this hotel! And probably not return to Santorini, which is suffering from too many tourists, especially large cruise ships without the infrastructure to cope! Sucha a shame for a pretty island. BTW. We fell in love with all the other islands we visited during our Greek island hopping holiday. Back to Nano Suites! All the TripAdvisor 5* ratings persuaded us to book this hotel. A mistake! Some of the reviews have negative comments and yet still rated as 5* !!! Also, I can now see that one review was NOT for this hotel because it mentions being “right in the middle of Oía”. This is obviously a different hotel! The good bits: Sunrise in a peaceful, quiet setting. Clean, spacious, beautifully furnished rooms. Ali and Marios are helpful, lovely, gentle men. The not-so good bits: 5 min walk from their car park up a steep slope of uneven, slippery, difficult cobble steps! The hotel is built on a hill so every public room is on a different level with steep unaided steps i.e. no rails. The rooms have air condenser units and air conditioning units because the rooms are and damp! This, means noise all day and NIGHT! The breakfast food is very average. We had 3 weeks on 4 different islands in the Cyclades. The food here was the worst we had! There is no manager “on the ground”. Meggy stays in the office; busy with administration. We planned to use the bus service having been told that the bus stops in the village. However, the bus does’s stop on the village any more, but on the main road with an impossible walk to the hotel. My fist husband found it hard with our bags. It was impossible for me with replacement hips and slightly weak muscles. I’m not disabled at all, but the walk from the bus stop is not suitable for those with any mobility limitation. The village restaurants are difficult walks steep slopes of uneven, slippery, difficult cobble steps! We ate at the village restaurants: Metaxi Max and Anemoloos. Anemoloos is a friendly, family-run restaurant; the food is OK and average price for Santorini. Metaxi Max is suffering from it’s success and greed - see my separate review for Metaxi Mas.

We recently stayed at the Hermoso Luxury Suites in Santorini. In short, I really liked this small hotel. Our room was spacious and clean with a view of the ocean. Breakfast was included and served hot food, although it was the same each day. There was a nice pool to enjoy. Zach was very accommodating and very helpful. The hotel is close to the airport. On a plus, it makes getting around the island convenient because everything is accessible by car. Being close to the airport, you do hear the planes landing and taking off. It's not that frequent and it didn't bother us.

We stayed at Nissos for a week as a group of 13 (+ baby) for a friends wedding and the hotel was perfect for us! The staff were all absolutely lovely, so relaxed and incredibly accommodating. The location is smack bang in the middle of Thira as well as being minutes from the bus station to explore the rest of the island. Couldn’t recommend staying here more- definitely request the room with the mega terrace overlooking the pool- iconic. Thanks again to all the staff you made our week wonderful!

We are so happy with had the opportunity to meet our Hostess Arestides he was above and beyond exceptional. He was helpful and he was able to get our transportation to the airport the correct time. Also, any restaurant reservation he was able to take care that for us and suggested great restaurant by the area by calling the restaurant I making sure we get a table with a nice view. He was very nice explaining everything to us when we arrive to the hotel and show us all the highlights of the island the best beaches and places to go. We felt safe and happy everything we will go to the front desk, and he was there to assist us. I can't thank you enough for all you time and hospitality. we are so happy we stayed there. The staff were so friendly, the rooms were immaculate. It was so peaceful and safe. I loved our pool right outside of our room 101, and the breakfast was delicious. The hotel is not too far from the center to Fira by walk about 7 minutes. Thank you again Arestides and the entire Staff.

Breakfast is super rich! Great viewing location! Very suitable for viewing the night view. The staff are also very friendly! There are three kittens in the hotel who are very clingy and cute. You can take photos with them!

We arrived 3 hours late due to flight delays meaning we arrived at the hotel at 2.30am and unfortunately, we didn't call ahead so there was no one to check us in and we had to sleep outside by the pool on the sunbeds - so make sure you call ahead and let reception know if you're arriving at the hotel after 11pm!! Other than this slight mishap, there really is nothing bad I can say about this hotel. The location is great - there's a bus directly outside the hotel that you can get into Oia and it goes into Fira too - a one way trip is only €2 per person so excellent value for money. We took Uber everywhere else but reception will call a taxi for you if you need. We booked our Sunset Yacht Tour through reception and everything was handled smoothly. They just told us where to be and when - reception dealt with everything else. The rooms are great although not as spacious as you might think - very little space to hang clothes and dry clothes but they were clean and we got clean towels for the room and clean beach towels every day. Our private plunge pool was great as well - more than big enough for 2 people, private space and the view was incredible. The staff were incredibly helpful - especially Krystal - when she realised we had slept on the bed outside she showed us to our room immediately told us to rest up and then come and see her when we were ready. Eto and Ivan were great too - so friendly and helpful, ready to help you with anything you need. Breakfast gets 5 stars from us - all freshy cooked and prepared for you depending on your selection (and there is plenty to choose from) and served with incredible views by the pool/bar. Honestly, I would stay here again in a heartbeat - no questions asked!

We booked this beautiful little place not knowing what to expect, but it turned out to be a fantastic find. Pros: - Clean and very spacious rooms - Beds are extremely comfortable - The breakfast is lovely & fresh - Close to the centre of Oia - Owners are extremely helpful & friendly - Outside area is picturesque and has stunning views - A lovely selection of restaurants nearby - Bus rout and transport to other areas is close by Cons: - WiFi didn’t seem to work very well at times - Hot water seemed to run out very quickly Only a couple of small things to tweak, but really cannot complain for the money we paid and the level of quality we got. Would stay here again anytime!

The room and the scenery are beautiful! You can sit outside the room and watch the sunrise and sunset. The room facilities are good, there is a bread machine and coffee capsule machine, and slippers! The fly in the ointment is that the bathtub is outdoor, not very clean, can't take a bath. And the mini bar has to charge for everything (all so expensive hotels TT) 🔔 Service: Especially good! The staff's attitude is super good! Check in to give us an upgraded room, say hello in advance to the type of breakfast we want to eat, and send it to the room the next day. Also sent us a glass of champagne per person! And because the Oia road is very difficult to walk, we also asked the hotel to help send our luggage to the station, the service is really 💯! 🧹 Hygiene: Very clean and clean! The whole room is fragrant, the bed is super soft, very comfortable!
