Overall Ratings & Reviews Fanari Villas Santorini

If you are staying in Oia, look no further. Fanari Villas is the perfect location, situated among the beautiful whitewashed buildings and a gorgeous view overlooking the caldera. The complimentary breakfast offers a wide variety of choices and was delicious. What really stood out was the incredible staff. We were welcomed at the private parking lot and our bags were carried up to our rooms. The lobby staff treated us like family and made sure we had everything we needed. They gave us a tour of the the property and upgraded our room. They even went out of their way to walk us to a nearby church owned by the Fanari family since the 1600's. The last day our flight wasn't until late and they let us keep our luggage there all day, while also providing us with a map and excellent itinerary options. Santorini was the last leg of a 2.5 week trip throughout Europe (Switzerland, Italy, and Greece). Fanari Villas was by far the best service we received.

Location, Staff, Breakfast, sunset

We had a wonderful time, a true dream vacation staying here (Honeymoon for me). Staff are very friendly and kind they treated us like family. The service was superb I highly recommend this place. There is an amazing restaurant in the hotel and other restaurants are only a few minutes walk. Actually everything is a few minutes away, shops, restaurants, historic buildings and great views. The hotel was the perfect place to get to see the breathtaking sunset and it has a panoramic view of the sea. We were in the sunset honeymoon suite and we had a very private patio and a 2nd floor with tanning/beach chairs which is semi-private, people can see you in certain angles ( you are top of the roof). The hotel is more private than other hotels that we saw which is one of the main reasons we love it here. I will come here again!

The staff were all really friendly and extremely helpful. The place was clean, bright and the breakfast was good. Only suggestion would be to include coffee in the buffet breakfast (non Greek coffee). We stayed in the Kyklos Villa for part of the stay which was amazing and highly recommend. Then the Junior Suite (Caldera view) which could do with a modernised bathroom especially given the price per night. Additionally our neighbours were chain smokers making it rather unpleasant to enjoy our outdoor seating area. The hotel should allocate a specific smoking area for guests so not to ruin the experience for others. Overall a beautiful place to stay with kind people and hospitality.

Very pleasant stay. Staff are exceptional. Very clean rooms with excellent amenities.

Excellent location and very relaxing. Awesome staff ad hospitality.

Great service, fantastic views, would stay again. The only negative is the breakfast which is average.

Everything was great. Breakfast included was a good option and they even rang the room in the morning before it ended to amke sure we could get there. Incredible staff at reception that i had the pleasure of working with Caterina, Penelope, Andrian. Wow really they were all great. Caterina worked closely with me calling her a number of times while she coordinated a boat ride and transport to and from the boat. Wow was the ride amazing. Andrian took my request but Caterina handled all the booking and money etc. Wow truly great. Thank you three so so much. Penelope made checkin and checkout a breeze and a pleasure and took some nice photos of me and my fiancé as well as showed us the special church on the property owned by the owner. Such special history. I hope to see you all again. Best wishes.

Please read the review if you have VEGETARIAN / VEGAN dietary restrictions. Restaurant doesn’t have any options that can serve the specific dietary restrictions. Even simple things like Chilli flakes to put on pasta, English Breakfast Tea packets and such are not available. If you’re paying a premium then you’d at least expect some basic food options or tea or breakfast options etc. Facilities, Location - Five Star, Restaurant staff was annoyed when I asked for English Breakfast Tea packet. Reservation Desk Staff - Five Star Everything else about this property is incredible but the food is major let down. Hope they’d listen and improve upon since I’d love to go back the same property again in future.

Hotel is beautiful and staff very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful property. Quiet area. Would have loved to order a la cart in the restaurant in the morning rather than fill out breakfast paper. Would have loved to use jacuzzi on patio. Needs to be hot. Gorgeous views! Overall great stay

It was amazing. We loved staying at fanari villas! Thank you

Was disappointing that they did not inform us when we checked in that the hot tub was not working. They did not offer us another alternative Villa to make a choice. Only after we tried to use and was not working did they say it was not going to work as they would not have the parts in time. To us this is unacceptable with the view and opportunity of the villa.

We stayed in the senior suit and it was very nice. The sunset view, service, breakfast etc. and the restaurant is better than some highest ratting restaurants in the town. If you don't stay here, you should definitely have dinner here, then you can enjoy both the sunset view and the great food.

Was overall a great experience. Charged us 300 euros though for 1 extra person in a suite set up.

Our stay at Fanari was great! The room had perfect sunset views and a jacuzzi. Breakfast was good and all the staffs were friendly and pleasant!

What a fantastic hotel! We wanted a top hotel in Santorini for our honeymoon. We were not disappointed!!! Booked a honeymoon suite and it was phenomenal! The property was amazing! Had breakfast every day, and dinner one night. Every employee made you feel extremely welcomed! All the views were amazing, especially the world famous sunset. Would 100% recommend and can’t wait to go back!

Great property and soaking tub with sunset view was awesome

Fanari is ideally located with the most amazing sunset views. The staff is incredible. Truly could not find a better location in Santorini. Close to everything yet set away from the huge crowds.

It’s beautiful here, just like the picture, staff are very friendly. I have a great time with them.
