Kamares Apartments

Fabulous week at Kamares. The views are amazing. Apartment is lovely. Staff can’t do enough for you. Great breakfast each morning. Perfect location. Can take the local buses to all the key places on the island for around 2 euros each way and to the airport (takes 15 mins). Would recommend staying in Fira.

We arrived as guests, 7 nights later we left as friends. Kamares apartments is an absolute must for your stay in Santorini. We arrived to a very happy and helpful Edward, when seeing the apartments and our room we were blown away. The private hot tub, veranda and apartment was stunning and spotlessly clean. The first few evenings we were blessed with clear sunsets so decided to watch them from the hot tub with a few drinks.. Edward helped us order local food for delivery to eat as well. Every morning you are greeted by Ben, he is positively infectious, Ben brought us our breakfast order every morning to our veranda at any time we wanted, kept our hot tub clean and ready for us at any time. We had so many good chats with him and there was never a day that went by he didn’t ask what we were up to. Maria is the morning receptionist, she is brilliant as well, ask Maria for all the top local places to eat away from the bustle. Edward has good recommendations but be prepared to pay for them 😂😂 (he likes the Boujie side of life!) The cleaners are incredible we popped out for a run one morning by the time we got back the apartment had been done and to such a high standard. Kamares is a magical breathtaking place that blew us away but without a doubt Maria, Edward, Ben and the team make it a home away from home. They care so much about their guests and it shows in every interaction with them. The only improvement we could possibly think of is to have nespresso machines in the room (we told Edward this and he helped us order coffee deliveries!!) that’s just because we are coffee lovers and no fault of Kamares! In terms of Santorini, use the local buses to get around at 2euro a trip you can explore the whole island including your airport transfers every hour. The Fira bus station is just a couple of minutes from the accommodation. Listen to all the guys recommendations of things to do and you will have the best time. We would rate this a million stars if we could and would one million percent stay again!

We were in Santorini for 4 nights and stayed at this hotel on the caldera cliff. The views were amazing and each morning we had breakfast at a privte outdoor spce adjacent to our room. Never tired of the sunsets and if you are an early bird like me, you can walk less than 5 minutes oustide your apartment and catch the sunrise over the Mediterranean. Location was a short walk from the promenade and not a lot of stair climbing was necessary. The day and night manager, Edward and Hara were so accommodating and helpful throughout our stay and Ben and the staff were always around to ask if we needed anything. Highly recommend!

Our family of four including two teenagers had a wonderful visit in early April. Breakfast on the balcony overlooking the caldera is a memory we won’t soon forget. The service at Kamares Apartments was also excellent especially Ben who worked very hard to make sure the hot tub was clean, the sun umbrella was in place and that breakfast was delivered promptly. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return again someday.

Kamares Apartments are located in the quiet edge of Fira. For families with young children, Kamares is a great location to allow for kids to get some much needed rest after a long day. Despite being away from the main action, restaurants and the bus station are a few steps away for your convenience. The views are worth every penny. From your hot tub you can see the entire caldera and don’t really need to leave to see the fabled sunset. Maria, our host, was exceptionally kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable about the island. She truly was our host during our stay in Santorini.

We spent a week here at Kamares Apartments. It‘s a welcoming place with an amazingly nice staff. Friendly, helpful and always smiling. Given the location, it is an absolute overcrowded, touristy area. Here at Kamares we felt like being in an oasis of tranquility and relaxation. Only sometimes you could hear music from a restaurant further away. The view was absolutely amazing. Sitting on your own little Terrasse and watching the cruise ships come and go while enjoying a lovely breakfast in the morning was one of the highlights. We had rented a car and were able to park right at the entrance of the hotel. Another, not to be underestimated plus in this buzzy area. But the top highlight was our own little Jacuzzi well maintained by the staff with a view of the caldera. The rooms are simple and tastefully decorated. I can recommend this place 100%
