It should be announced that the hotel has a beach & night bar next to the pool. With loud DJ/ night club music from 10am To midnight every day. It’s too much noise. The room was very clean. But in the bathroom, no pressure, no warm water. On the terrace the sunbeds were full of dust. No cleaning. The pool is Big and nice but everything around is old. No drinks at the pool. No coffee in the morning. Could be a + for the next season.

Staff is great. Vassia was so Nice with us. And the housekeeping lady very great too.

Music from the other bar was definitely an issue. I thought it would be unmanageable but in the end it’s only distractingly loud when at the pool (not in the room) and between maybe 2-8pm when conveniently we were never at the hotel. Would also recommend maybe cutting back the tree that over shadows the balcony in room 8, not completely but a little bit. Very cool to have the sunbeds but only a sliver of sun got through.

Pool was lovely, there was a chicken named Bugs who sometimes stopped by the property. Vassia at the front desk was super helpful; she organized our ATV rental, taxi to the airport and any other bits and bobs as needed. Room was bit with air con.

Nothing I didn’t like

It was quiet. Lovely pool. Very helpful receptionist. Great location.

The music from Jo Jo’s bar which adjoins the hotel can be quite loud & annoying when you’re trying to chill by the pool. But it does finish early evening so it’s not too bad.

A gorgeous, small hotel run by the amazing Vassia, for whom nothing is too much trouble. The fabric of the building is getting a little tired, but it’s immaculately clean. The pool area is lovely & hardly any other guests seemed to use it, although I was there toward the end of the season. It’s in a great position near to lots of restaurants & 2 minutes walk to the beach.

The beds could have been more comfortable

Great location, seconds from the beach. Nice pool, very quiet and not crowded. Quick acres to the beach bar at JoJo’s. Having a kitchenette in the room was handy. Friendly staff!

The only thing that annoyed us was the loud music coming from the bar next door.

The pool and its surroundings ... especially at night, with the lights on ... with access 24 hours a day ... my children loved spending time in it, especially after sunset. Very nice and helpful staff.

Nothing really. The room was huge and they offered daily room service.

I would like to give a special recommendation to the staff at the hotel, especially Vassia at the reception desk. She absolutely went out of her way to make our stay as comfortable as she could. This was all the more appreciable since we were traveling with our 18-month old daughter. Our family loved her!

The location was superb, the proximity to the beach was great. The reataurants nearby were very good with lots of fresh, tasty fish. We loved the variety of different cuisines, too. The appartment was facing the pool and met our expectstions (family with three children). It was cleaned as per our requests, the cleaning lady was very nice and polite. The pool was clean and nice alternative on a windy day. Free sunbeds on the property were also nice. The host was nice and approachable, supported us in all our requests. The transfer from/to the airport was as requested, the driver was very nice and followed our wishes with other requests, too. Overall, another great vacation in Santorini.

Accommodation was pretty basic.

Good location. The property manager (Vassia) made our stay at the Joy. She was extremely helpful and couldn’t do more for us. Nice pool area also.

It would be nice if the kitchenette in the room was a little better equipped - no corkscrew or sharp knife, one pan, three cups for a room that sleeps 4 (though we were only two so not a problem!). A tea-towel would be a handy addition, too. But this didn't detract from our enjoyment of our stay at all.

Joy Beach Hotel was a lovely place to stay at the end of our holiday. Particular mention must go to the excellent manager Vassia who seems to work 24/7 yet remains unfailingly friendly, helpful and generally lovely. The rooms and bathrooms have seen better days it must be said but were clean and comfortable and the air conditioning works really well. The pool is gorgeous although we mostly swam in the sea. The beach is a couple of minutes walk and the loungers with shades are free to use which is amazing - it would be far too hot to lie out without shade.

There wasn’t much cutlery, no bread knife or anything to cut larger items - a watermelon for instance. The stove wasn’t too hot, a pan of water took ages to boil. We did think on the website that there was a pool bar but there wasn’t?

The location was good, just far enough from the beach so no people walking past the pool all the time. Big room, very good bed and nice balcony. The pool loungers were very comfortable and the pool area was mostly empty

The staff was wonderful and the location is just what we were looking for!

Hard mattress Roadway from hotel to main road & beach was full of potholes and there was zero lighting so it was dangerous to walk on after dark.

Nice hotel, very pleasant and helpful staff, lovely pool area, spacious room, very near to the beach, nice restaurants snd bars nearby

The only thing really was,the music from the bar next door was a little much all day everyday,when you are trying to relax round the pool. It wasn't bad, but would have been more relaxing without it.

The room was basic, a good size, had everything you needed and worked..! It was cleaned every day, as was the outside with the pool area very clean and tidy by the staff. The one thing that made our experience was Areti on reception, whom was not just reception,she was manager, bookings,departures, conceige and execptional person a true credit to the hotel, this is what brought joy to the joy hotel. It was ideally situated for bars restaurants,beach and local transport.more of a couple's resort although something for most age groups.

First of all this hotel is in a great location. the beach (which is literally a 2 minute walk) is stunning, crystal clear water and great for everyone. The hotel was clean, comfortable and suited us well. the pool area is great with the comfiest sun loungers. The rooms are basic but very spacious, great powerful showers and big beds. The star of the show is the receptionist, Areti!! she is absolutely fabulous and couldn’t do enough for us. Gave us some great restaurant recommendations and really knows the area well. Thank you so much for making our stay amazing.
