"Excellent communication with Nikos and Kostas. They paid attention to every little detail from making sure I got to the house safely, advising me how to spend my time in Santorini- where to go, eat etc to how I would get back to the airport. The property itself is a little gem- beautiful surroundings. 20 min walk to Oia. 10/10"

"Wow, what a dream it was to stay at Fotinos House! Mr. Fotinos and his wife, Ioanna, were so welcoming and ensured every detail was taken care of during our stay. They helped arrange transportation to/from the airport, and Mr. Fotinos even helped carry our luggage up and down the infamous staircases in Oia (and kindly refused our tip). We stayed in the Honeymoon Suite, which was a clean and perfect bungalow for 2 people. It had gorgeous blue views of the Aegean sea, was surrounded by the...

"An absolutely outstanding hotel that tops all resorts or villas from around the world. From the moment of pick-up from the airport to the second we left, you feel the thoughtfulness, luxury and superiority. Location of the hotel is unbeatable, close to the carpark area and next to the center of Oia. The view is gorgeous, though that’s not unique as most resorts on Santorini enjoy the view, it’s the design, the vibe and the quietness that Charisma offers really differentiate. Food: 5/5 1....

"5 star rating from me is a rare occasion as I am a little picky, but I rate this stay a 5 star. We stayed at this property from Oct 12-14 as we wanted to exit the busy streets of Oia and Fira. This is a gorgeous Hotel which has amazing and peaceful caldera view. Easy to find, simple check-in, Friendly staff, excellent room service and very accommodating. They have packed us a super early breakfast (4:30 am) due to our early morning flight. Highly recommend to stay here without any doubts in...
