Filomare Suites

10/10 Excellent
"Our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 teenagers) stayed in the Executive Villa in August 2026. The hotel had opened just 3 months earlier, so everything was brand new and gorgeous. We used the hotel transfer (€55 cash), which was absolutely worth it. The driver was waiting for us at the airport. We were amazed to discover that the Executive Villa is actually a beautiful 3-story house right next to the pool! We felt like royalty. It has 2 full bathrooms. Although Filomare is currently a 3-star hotel, it definitely felt like a 4-star. The breakfast buffet was delicious, with bacon, sausages, eggs, cold cuts, cheeses, fresh fruit, Greek salad, yogurt, pastries, panna cotta, fresh juices and an excellent espresso machine. My only recommendation would be to make the coffee machine available from 6 a.m. with takeaway cups, since breakfast and coffee only start at 8 a.m. The pool area is beside a bus parking lot, but thankfully it is on a lower level and mostly invisible while sitting by the pool. You see the beautiful sea, making for gorgeous photos. The partial sunset view is breathtaking. I recommend the villa only for families with children over three, as the staircase railings have large openings that would be very dangerous for toddlers. I also recommend adding handrails to the exterior stairs, as my husband fell once. The location is unbeatable: literally a 1-minute walk from Santorini’s main pedestrian street and famous blue domes. Convenience store and car rental nearby."
