    Friendly informative host, very good breakfast on balcony with view. The apartment came with two balconies providing nice views to the caldera and the south beaches of the island. Ancient Akrotiri is an interesting archaeological site in the vicinity.

Peaceful 🇬🇷🫶🏻

    The cold air from the AC may not reach the loft where the bed is (cold air sinks.) I’d recommend installing a ceiling fan to draw the cold air upward, onto the loft. It will make it easier to sleep at night if you are not used to the heat. Other than that, we are really pleased with the place.

    The location was fantastic. It is close to Red Beach and Black Beach, the ferry port (a 15 minute drive), the airport (a 25 minute drive), the capital Fira, and within a 10 minute walking distance to the Venetian castle. Akrotiri also has a ruin that you can visit, there are several restaurants and at least one supermarket nearby (within 10 minute drives.) It is located in a quiet area, with great views. The hotel manager/host/owner is super generous with provisions. She is always there to help you.

    We had an amazing time staying at William's houses! A beautiful modern and very large room and an incredible view! Our hosts were so kind and helpful and even got up in the night to meet us and give us the keys when we arrived very late. Akrotiri is a lovely part of the island and a lot more quiet than other areas.

    The location isn't that bad if you don't mind a little 20-30 minute drive to/from the centre fira.

    Hospitality was great from the main boss lady owner, family run business so had that little personal touch. The room was modern clean and beautiful, spacious enough for the three of us. The shower was wonderfully big and roomy and the hot tub was a nice way to chill out. The room looked like it may have been recently renovated, nice touch 👍🏽. I would 100% stay again with a realistic score of 9.5-10!

    Very friendly staff. Clean and cozy rooms. The view from the terrace is amazing. Reception also organised a car to rent for us which I think is a must for Santorini. Having the car gave us a flexibility to explore different parts of the island.

    Nice and relaxed stay in Santorini!
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Superior Double with Outdoor Hot Tub and Caldera View

    In my opinion, the price could be a little lower, given that the rooms face the caldera but also the street and that you don't get to have much privacy (you are side by side with other guest)

    The room was really big and new, with all the comforts. It was really nice to have also the outside patio with the Jacuzzi and the view on the caldera! Breakfast was quite various with many choices, and the host was super kind and full with suggestions. She was also extremely helpful with the transfer from the airport and the scooter rental. All in all I would recommend William's House if you are looking for a place outside the super crowded Fira/Oia, Akrotiri is more relaxed/authentic but you may need your own car/scooter to visit the island!

    I can't actually complain about anything. It was a really good stay and we enjoyed it a lot. The hotel doesn't have its own restaurant, but then just opposite to it, there's a good family owned restaurant with a reasonably priced menu and very friendly staff. I would also recommend going there for dinner.

    The house was very easy to reach from everywhere in Santorini. Although it's better to have a car. Buses are anyway infrequent all over the island and aren't always on time. From our balcony we could see the caldera - a wonderful view. The apartment we stayed in was tip-top clean, the staff was very kind and helpful. I would highly recommend it if one wants to stay in a peaceful locality away from crowded Fira or Oia.

    This was fantastic accommodation in Akrotiri, and a fantastic host. Zafira communicated with us throughout our stay, we wanted for nothing, and helped us arrange excursions and a quad bike. Unfortunately during our stay we both got a bad gastroenteritis (do not drink the water on the island!) and Zafira helped us to recover and even called us transportation to go to hospital and kept checking in on us. Location is idealic with amazing views from the balcony and only a 20 minute walk from Akrotiri village. Amazing host and an amazing stay at the hotel. Thank you Zafira from Stylianos and David.

    The breakfast could have more of a choice in food.

    Spacious room and patio outside was great for lounging, being out in the sun or taking a nice dip in the hot tub. Close to everything but far enough it’s quiet.

    The property is located in a very convenient location with plenty of parking spots available. We’d like the most the hospitality of the owners and the warm welcome for our stay. Anyone who will enjoy this accommodation will definitely feel the spirit of Greek hospitality, aka philoxenia!
