Kratiras View Luxury Suites

Ο σερβιτόρος είναι πολύ δυνατός και με βοήθησε να μεταφέρω τις 25 κιλά αποσκευές μου πάνω κάτω. Το αφεντικό είναι πολύ ενθουσιώδες και με φροντίζει καλά. Το ξενοδοχείο έχει ωραία θέα και το ηλιοβασίλεμα μπορεί κανείς να παρακολουθήσει από το ξενοδοχείο. Συνιστάται και αξίζει να κάνετε κράτηση ξανά. Το φαγητό είναι λίγο ακριβό.

This was our first time in Santorini. The hotel had a beautiful view of the Caldera. The staff was amazing. My husband and I we had breakfast and Dinner at Katrins. It was really good food. The last night we had fish there, it was very freah amd delicious. The hotel had alot of dining options near by as well.

We rate this hotel 5 out of 5. The view was breathtaking. Small boutique hotel, which we love. The staff was friendly. The area had alot of dining options as well. The hotel room was clean. Breakfast and dinner was amazing. ATM near by. Cash is Key there in Santorini.

Terrible!!! 😭 I booked a luxurious hotel and Kratiras was not that! I honestly don't like to give bad reviews. However, I was extremely disappointed with this property. As a solo female traveller, I need to feel safe, I didn't at this hotel. The view is spectacular, but that's it! The view! I came to Santorini for my birthday and paid for luxury, but I didn't get it at Kratiras. The place is very old and unclean! The Lady/owner is nice but her husband isn't, he shouted at me because I wanted to get a cup to make some tea. Why there aren't any cups, but there's a kettle? I checked in late and checked out very early the next morning. I was in tears because I was not comfortable. The Lady at a nearby hotel, Daydream Suite was very accommodating and sweet. I spent the duration of my time there for less money. Kratiras needs to do major work on that property and the little pool was dirty.

The stay was amazing and the scenerie was spectacular. The host was very nice and wanted to do everything for us. The room was clean and tidy.

This place was incredible from the word go. Pants and Angelo felt like family by the time we left. They saw to our every need. Pools and hot tub were great after all our walking. View from the room could not be surpassed. We had one of the most epic dinners of our lives, which we’ll never forget. Shopping, excursions, airport are all close. Thank you for an unforgettable time. Elaine and Ted

There are an increasing number of iconic tourist hotspots around the World that are now suffering from mass adoration; Amsterdam, Venice, etc. Unfortunately Santorini must be near the top of the list. Prepare yourself for wall to wall crowds. But I digress. When you think of Santorini, you see picturesque cliff top views of cruise liners in the Aegean Sea, cute houses, restaurants and bars, cascading up precipitous slopes and magic sunsets. Some hotels and apar**ents in Santorini think that if they provide this view, and many do, that they can claim to be luxurious. The Kratiras View Luxury Suites fall into this category. They definitely have the luxurious views but that is where luxury ends. We did have one of the cheapest rooms without a private pool. It is either a private pool or no pool. The management seem to think the view will compensate for everything so why bother about the petty details like the door handle is on the table when you arrive, the key to the safe doesn’t work, the hairdryer falls apart, the table lamp doesn’t work, the air conditioning unit is old and barely keeps the day time heat at bay (we hate to think what it was like during the recent 40 degree heatwave.) The view also comes at a price. Between 2pm and 7pm you will need to keep the suite curtains fully closed to block out the heat and glare of the Western Sun because there is no effective shade. The ‘suites’ themselves (really a room) are very small and compact with a double bed pressed against a wall. Small desk and chair, fridge, small table and 2 chairs, although a table and chairs are also an available on the small patio. The two adjacent suites are open to your patio so there is absolutely no privacy in your room. Most suites have very small pools or spas, the middle ones on the upper two floors have neither. So if you want a pool, make sure you request one, but remember that Western sun, you may get boiled rather than cooled. An evening submersion with a glass of wine might work. The bathroom is very cramped with an open shower so a challenge to keep the water inside. Toiletries are provided and the towels are nice, thick and clean. So works but a bit small. So are there any positives other than the majestic views. The management staff are very friendly and obliging, so if you want a kettle and couple of cups, a couple of sun loungers on your patio, to get some of those malfunctioning items fixed, they are very prompt to act. The breakfast on the “terrace with a view” was fine; nice bread and jams, yoghurt and fruit, bacon and egg or an omelette, fruit juice. Although we found the breakfast timing at 9.30 to 11.00 am painfully late. Like most of the hotels and apar**ents in Santorini, access is a challenge. Cobbled and uneven paths, steps, and mainly uphill. The hotel will take your main luggage to the local bus stop which is a great service. In terms of getting to and from the airport, we recommend the local bus (an air conditioned coach) for EUR 1.6

This place has the most amazing view and everything is close by, don’t think too much and get it

Nice property but it was located right by donkey area so you could smell the donkey poo everyday But staff was nice and friendly and helped to arrange transfers and helped to carry luggage to transfer area
