Scorpios Beach Hotel

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.

Adequate hotel, super helpful staff, spacious clean rooms . Very poor location. It s proximity to Fira may make it a good base to travel to other parts of the island, I don’t know if there is accessible public transport to Fira, a taxi may be needed. A taxi to Oia , where we moved to, is € 40. Some reviews mention low flying planes due to airport proximity but don’t mention that the hotel is next to a power plant or similar with the constant noise of a motor. The hotel feels very enclosed. We booked this through EasyJet and the photographs they use are of the hotel but enhanced to the point of being misleading. The beach area is shabby. The cost was similar to other hotels. We decided to cut our losses and moved to a hotel we had stayed in before. We didn’t request a refund of any kind from EasyJet. We did request that they pick us up from our new hotel on our return trip, , they refused and asked me to go and take photographs of the hotel I booked through them. It appears that their in resort reps are only used to meet & greet at the airport and sell tours, trips and ‘experiences’. The EasyJet flights were OK. Because we were able to change hotels at our own cost, this was another fabulous holiday in Santorini but I wouldn’t book a hotel via EasyJet again .
