Maryloujohn Villas

We stayed at this hotel in the middle of Oia for 4 days and it was the best! since the first day the host was so nice to us and offered help anytime! the room was cleaned everyday (really appreciate that) and the view from the balcony was wonderful at sunset. The position is perfect, the host is available for anything (he even took us to the airport) i really recommend going here!

This was the worst travel experience of my life. From the moment we arrived at Maryloujohn Villas (Santorini), the male host was aggressive and unprofessional. The bathroom trap was broken from the start — we have video proof — but he falsely accused us of damaging it and used it as an excuse to withhold our deposit. He entered our room area without knocking, walked around with a dog to intimidate us, and shouted repeatedly. On the day of checkout, despite informing him the night before, he screamed “Fing leave my hotel!”, threw our suitcases outside*, and locked the gate behind us. We were two women, traveling alone — and we were terrified. There was no reception, no cleaning staff, no safety, and the host handled cleaning himself in a completely unhygienic way. This was not hospitality – it was harassment. Agoda’s response so far has been disappointing. We booked 5 hotels through Agoda — this is the only one we’ve ever complained about. Do NOT stay here. Especially if you’re a woman or traveling solo. You deserve safety, respect, and basic human decency — this place offers none of that.

I have just had a fantastic stay at Maryloujohn Villas. The location is out of this world and there are million dollar views from either the patio on the ground floor or the rooftop terrace. I was absolutely blewn away with the views - I thought I was in heaven - they are breathtaking and you will just want to sit and gaze at them all,day. There is not a better position to be staying in Oia then here. You are in a great spot to enjoy everything this great area has to offer. The accommodation is spotlessly clean and everything you need is provided. John the host was so friendly and helpful, he certainly makes you feel welcome and I left feeling like I have made new friends. Him and his wife take great pride in the running of the property and they give you something you will not get in larger establishments - good old fashioned customer service and made to feel like you matter. I was sad to be leaving and will certainly be back and recommend you look no further than here for your stay in Oia - you won’t be disappointed.
