We’ve just returned from a truly perfect 9-night stay at Katikies Santorini and already wish we were back. From start to finish, everything was faultless. Sofia and the entire team were absolutely brilliant – genuinely warm, attentive without ever being overbearing, and always going the extra mile to make our stay special.
The hotel itself is immaculate, beautifully kept, and the views are simply incredible – one of those places that really does live up to the photos (if not exceed them). Waking up to that caldera view each morning never got old. Breakfast was absolutely amazing - one the best!
We also found that most guests tend to stay just a night or two and move on quite quickly. Having spent nine nights here, I’d honestly recommend staying at least a week, if not longer, to properly take it all in. It’s one of those places that isn’t meant to be rushed – the pace, the views, the atmosphere all deserve a bit more time. Being among the few guests staying longer really allowed us to appreciate it fully, and it made the whole experience feel that much more special.
It’s rare to find somewhere that gets every detail right, but Katikies really does. We felt completely looked after throughout and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. A very special place – we’ll definitely be returning.

While the hotel isn't located in Oia or Fira, it's situated on the edge of the caldera, overlooking the Aegean Sea. The views are stunning, making it perfect for those with plenty of time and a short vacation. A bus service runs directly to Fira, a 20-minute drive away, making transportation convenient. The hotel's service was excellent. We printed out the bus schedule in advance, and the front desk staff provided detailed information about attractions and arranged travel arrangements. They were very considerate. If you ran out of drinking water in your room, you could ask for more. The breakfast was varied and well-prepared, with a wide selection of fruits. Breakfast ended at 11:00 PM. The breakfast restaurant overlooked the Aegean Sea and was a delight. The evening menu was also excellent and worth trying, though the prices are a bit high. The small garden outside the garden-view rooms was clean and comfortable for soaking up the sun. The only downside was the lack of a gym and a rather small pool.

The hotel is in a very good location, facing the sea, and you can watch the sunset while sitting in the house. The front desk service is meticulous. Our boat arrived at 11:40 pm and checked in at 12:00 am, which was already early morning Beijing time. With the coordination of the Ctrip platform and the agent, we checked in smoothly. Thanks to the platform, the agent and the hotel staff.

Love it. Said it’s a two stars hotel but actually all the facilities and services are in 4 stars level. They got a bar near the pool (you will get a welcoming drink there which is so tasty) and multiple types of rooms. They also got a long hour front desk and shuttle service etc…
The room is very cozy and large, and got everything you need even with a kitchen in my apartment. The AC is very enough and comfortable. We were celebrating our anniversary with Blue Waves and they got a very very romantic and nice decoration which allow us to have an even better experience with them! We love it so much and spent a very wonderful night with Blue Waves!

We had an incredible stay at Blue Dolphins Hotel in Santorini this December. We booked the room with a private jacuzzi, and it was truly amazing and such a special experience. The views were stunning, the room was beautifully designed, and everything felt peaceful.
The jacuzzi itself was a real highlight. It does take a little time to heat up, but once it does, it’s absolutely worth the wait and incredibly relaxing. Enjoying it in December made the experience feel even more stress relieving and cozy.
Overall, the atmosphere, comfort, and attention to detail made our stay unforgettable. We would 100% recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable and romantic stay in Santorini. We can’t wait to come back!

We had a wonderful stay here! The breakfast was delicious and the service was impeccable. The driver was able to take us where we wanted to go, the snack/bar man was friendly and the woman at th front desk went above and beyond to make our stay a memorable one. We had an amazing time at the pool and it's only 10 minutes or less from the picturesque Oia view. The room had adorable details, down to a welcome basket with a tote bag and bottle of wine. I would recommend anyone to stay here.

The villa is outside the centrum area which is so peaceful, only the alley to go there is a bit difficult for me who has knee problem because of up and down walk, 15-20 minutes walking to the bus stop and 20-25 minutes walking to the centrum which is the top tourists area, there's a nice restaurant nearby with a reasonable price compared to the centrum, the amenities is always refilled, Euginia is very nice and always asking what to refill for the breakfast, the housekeeper name Azad is also nice and very hospitable, the jacuzzi makes us thrill 😆 and the balcony with amazing view to the ocean and Island, overall I enjoyed staying here 😇

Guest UserExcellent holiday. Stayed a week and explored the island at a leisurely pace, best way with no rush. Thank you and credit to Sophie at the front desk. She is so helpful and cheery. She helped us book day excursion trips to the volcano, Oia sunset trip, rental car, airport transfer. 👍👍 Sophie. Porter & breakfast room service was the other excellent experience at this hotel. Then there is the view from our terrace & hot tub, beautiful. Room was cozy, clean & comfortable. The well maintained light color walls inside and outside this property is just amazing. Just like all of Santorini, the white buildings in the bright sun is just outstanding. Highly recommend this hotel for the best location near Fira city center for restaurants & shops. Not sure if we will visit Santorini again but if we do, will certainly return to this hotel.

All the staff at this hotel are very polite,friendly and willing to help with whatever queries or needs you may have. Location is the best, close to everything. Pool area and facilities great and special mention to Maggi at the pool and bar area always smiling makes you feel very comfortable. Gentleman Ilia and his wife prepare a delicious fresh breakfast each morning and were fantastic to interact. Yanis at reception and the rest of the staff were great to deal with and anytime I decide in visiting Santorini I definitely stay at this hotel. I have nothing but praise for this place and strongly recommend it.

We are mature second marriage honeymoon guests for 9 days at Nikki Beach Hotel and Resort. We loved our time, the service was always attentive and rapid. We own a Destination Wedding Venue INOLA Blue Ridge in the U.S. and understand luxury and service.
The pool design and lighting is spectacular, room views great. Word of caution, if you dont like loud party music 11:30am to 7pm. Do not book a room near the main pool. The small pools at the rooms need more plantings and decor to make them more intimate. Also for about 80% of the pool rooms, other rooms look down into your pool. Go for the view and not the small pool.
Thank you so much Nikki Beach!!!
