Santorini Renaissance

This hotel lies just at the end of the sea front in Monolithos, a quiet village area about 3 km from Kamari. It's a cosy and laid back place that's just the right size. Our room, (12) is spacious and functional. It's at the lowest level so you're not getting any amazing views. But you're only a stones throw from all the amenities, i.e. the bar and the pool!! The beds are comfortable and the AC is more than up to the job of keeping the room cool at night. The buffet breakfast is good with both hot and cold to choose from. Sitting outside is lovely as long as it's not too windy, which it was during our stay. The bar / restaurant is staffed with very friendly people who you soon get to know. The menu has a good variety of food including some simple dishes that are perfect for lunch or snacks. There's something for everybody here! The pool is perfect for a dip to cool off and there was space to relax around the pool most of the time. I can imagine in high season that it can quickly get a little crowded though. House keeping was regular and a good standard. All in all, we have had a wonderful stay and enjoyed every day of our stay here! If you want a place that's a little less "frantic" than Kamari, this may be a good choice! 👍

We have just returned from a week at Scorpios beach and it was exactly the relaxing holiday experience we needed. Every member of staff at the hotel was kind, helpful and friendly. No question was silly and they were more than happy to help with anything. The rooms were massive and spacious, clean and tidy and had everything you needed. We loved watching the planes coming over the beach it was an experience Monolithos is very quiet and there isn’t much going on, but Kamari is a 10 minute taxi ride away or you can get the bus easily. The food at the hotel is amazing, everything was fresh and tasted incredible! The barman was so friendly and made sure the beers were flowing! I can’t fault this hotel at all we had such a lovely week following our original holiday being cancelled!

This is our second visit to this beautiful hotel. Having experienced the busy touristy side of Santorini this location suited us perfectly. Monolithos provides an excellent local base with a few goof tavernas and restaurants a well stocked local shop and beach just across the road from the hotel. The bus stop is just outside and Mr Traveller provided an excellent taxi service making access to the rest of the island seamless. The hotel itself and pool are some of my favourites- stunning rooms and a great pool area with some delicious cocktails and food. The staff are very friendly and helpful and the whole stay was a week of utter relaxation. Gorgeous sunrise from the beach, Perfect if you want to experience Santorini at a slower pace. We will be back.
