We enjoyed our stay here! We had a lovely triple room with a balcony which was lovely to sit on under the flowers. The bed was incredibly comfortable also. The only thing that wasn’t great was the bathroom as the shower would flood and had no curtain on it. The bathroom would get quite soggy! The pool bar and pool are also lovely, though there was a massive group staying for a wedding during our stay which would take over most of the chairs and carry on a bit during the day. This was a bit off putting, though our kids still had fun in the pool. Not the hotel’s fault though! The breakfast at the pool bar is great value, though note that he only takes cash. Otherwise, an enjoyable stay in a great part of the island within very easy walking distance to many restaurants.

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Blue Waves. We had a spacious room that comfortably fit the four of us, and the staff was very helpful. It is about one block from the beach and restaurants of Kamari and right near the path to Ancient Thira. The pool and pool bar were fabulous.

What’s not to love about this family run gem in kamari Santorini. The best place to stay! I was alone due to unforeseen circumstances where I ended up without my family to join me. Katia the receptionist was so kind and reassured me I would have the best stay here, and I did. I’d booked the honeymoon suite (unknowingly) and it did not disappoint! The room was beautiful, modern and clean with a private infinity pool on the roof. All the amenities were there and more. These guys really have thought of everything. A great use of the space and so tastefully decorated with a small kitchenette incase you fancied staying in. I was gutted to be alone but it made for the ultimate relaxing few days. The staff are just so lovely. Yannis the manager is so attentive, constantly making sure his guests are happy and have everything they need and his sister Vana runs the bar and reception through the evening also so friendly and helpful. Aldi is the bartender he’s there through the day such a personable guy helping to make you feel welcome and relaxed. Makes a good cocktail too! The main pool of the hotel is well maintained, clean and inviting. The sun loungers of great quality. The breakfast in the morning is delicious with many options to chose from all reasonably priced. The location is perfect next to a supermarket and across the road from a couple of restaurants with the bus stop and PCR a 2 min walk away. The beach is close. This really is the best hotel!

Glad to have chosen Kamari to stay & Blue Waves Hotel. Close to many restaurants, awesome beach & transportation to other areas of Santorini. My only let down was the comfort of the bed, it was a little too hard for my liking but otherwise an amazing and friendly staff- felt like I left with a Greek family.

We were a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children 10,11) that had a fantastic time at this hotel. We enjoyed the attention to detail and the fantastic service we received both from the management and the staff in the bar. The welcome drinks and wine were much aporeciated! The private pool was perfect for relaxing night swims when you want to relax and cool off after a hot day exploring the island. The location is PERFECT! Close to the beach, close to some really great places to eat, and the bus stop and ATM are just around the corner. They also provide a private pick up/drop of service to and from the airport and harbour at rates better than the almost NON-existent taxis on the island. If we have the opportunity to visit Kamari we would definitely come here again. Whole-heartedly recomended!!! For first timers to Santorini the communication with the staff made our short trip that much more enjoyable.

My first visit to Greece was quite overwhelming, I was not expecting the impact of the beauty of Santorini and her friendly people. Our hotels location was amazing, the staff were all very friendly & super eager to please,(and did). Our suite was nice, well presented & very clean with adequate space for us, however, an extra luggage bench for the suitcases, and a mirror in the room would have been nice, as our visit was for a family wedding, and the only mirror was in the bathroom. Our Grecian themed bathroom was lovely & adequately stocked with the usual requirements. Our kitchenette was adequate but a sponge or kitchen towels would have been helpful, also I would swap the pressure cooker for a toaster. Overall our visit (my first) was extremely positive, from arriving to departing, and out and about, we were made very very welcome. we are back home now, & telling everyone of our wonderful visit to Greece, and looking forward to our next visit.
