Smaragdi Hotel

Loved our stay here. A short walk to Black sand beach, restaurants galore, convenience store and the bus stop. But still private and off the busy streets. Will be back!

Yes pool was nice

Perfect hotel, excellent localization, awesome customer service, comfortable, clean, large room, strongly recommended!!!

Loved the hotel and the pool and omg the fact that it’s in front of the beach was fabulous , check in was super easy and I extended my stay because I was in love with the island !

Very welcoming everything was as we needed it

The staff couldn’t have been more lovely and the property is gorgeous, so close to the beach!!!

Had the most amazing stay at Smaragdhi. Was a lovely hotel that was the picture of calm and serenity. We really enjoyed our stay and the hotel staff were all wonderful. Thank you!

Samaragdi Hotel was an absolute pleasure to stay at. Friendly staff, clean rooms and less than 2 minute walk to the beach. They can assist booking excursions such as the Santorini volcano boat tour, which I highly recommend. I was upgraded to a pool view suite and it was stunning. They do not offer breakfast, but with so many options nearby, it’s not a problem. I would absolutely stay here again!

Best hotel for a quiet stay in Santorini directly on the beach and with easy access to bus to visit all the other villages. Maria, the owner of the hotel, along with all the staff, are so kind and will help you with anything you need. Beautiful site and rooms. Very clean hotel and super professional team. Very nice to have sunbeds for free at Safran restaurant as a guest of Smaragdi. Lots of options for breakfast, lunch and dinner in just a 2 min walk to the beach with a beautiful view. Perfect location to have best of both worlds, relaxation and exploring the island. Will definitely be back!

Beautiful hotel and great customer service.

😀👍

A nice hotel in a pretty barren location. Great staff but the surrounding area is lacking for food options.

The best hotel in Perivolos Greece.

One of our favourite places we stayed during our vacation. Pool area was beautiful and well kept. Hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful (showed us how to get around, hired us transportation, etc.). Location was very convenient; a 5 minute walk to all the restaurants, shops, beach, and bus stop. Plus, by staying at this hotel you get a discount at one of the local restaurants plus free sun beds. The area is also a lot less crowded than other areas on the island. Highly recommend!

The property layout and pool area were great. Our room was large with a nice deck. The real icing on the cake was the friendliness and helpfulness of the reception staff! Maria tutored us on basic Greek phrases and couldn't do enough to help us enjoy our holiday from advice on the best places to visit to organizing bookings and transport.

Excellent, attentive staff. Rooms were super clean and everything was wonderful. Great place to stay!

Helpful responsive staff

Such a beautiful hotel with a truly boutique feel. Rooms were lovely and very clean, the pool is fantatsic, always space available on sunbeds. 2 minutes from the beach and all of the wonderful local restaurants. Staff could not have been nore friendly and accomodating.

Excellent experience staying here!! They are very very accommodating. Rooms were clean and spacious and the bed was very comfortable. 3 minute walk to the beach. Highly recommend

Helpful staff . Pleasant experience

I realise that gushing about somewhere on a review site gives the impression that you are motivated by something other than the quality of the place but in this case, the Smaragdi Hotel was fantastic on every level. Primarily, it was Maria and Christina on the front desk - as well as their blonde-haired collage whose name I never got - who were so friendly and helpful to myself and family that it really made the holiday. The place itself has an amazing pool, handy bar and library and is in a really peaceful setting; the attention to detail (room fixtures, air-con, kettle, fridge) is also exceptional. Frankly, I'm loathe to let more people know about this place in case I never manage to get another booking but there you go, I have to be honest: it's an absolute treat of a hotel.

Smaragdi hotel is a great hotel! Our favourite part was the pool area and the dinning options nearby. The area around the hotel was a bit quieter and we had to walk down the beach to get to a more lively area. The staff were amazing and super accommodating! The only issue we had was the noises coming from the room above us. However, the staff happily moved us to a new room!

The staff of this hotel are so nice . I checked in this hotel at midnight. And I had nothing eat but the receptionist prepared foods for me

Very nice pool area, large bedrooms, close to beach & restaurants. Excellent staff

We had a fantastic week's stay in the Smaragdi hotel. Maria and her team were really welcoming And friendly hosts , greeting guests with genuine Smiles and so polite and helpful. The rooms were very nice and cleaned daily. The pool was lovely with plenty of sun loungers, and just a 5 minute stroll to the beach and taverna's. What more could you want for a week's holiday 😉 Thanks Paul and Siobhan McGarty.

The staff are so friendly and attentive. We arrived well before check in but they still found us a room within an hour. Beautiful balcony view overlooking the pool. The rooms are clean, air conditioned and has a small fridge to store water and some food. The property is just steps to the beach and close to lots of great restaurants. The morning of check out, they accommodated a late check out, which was very appreciated. You can always store your luggage and still use their bathroom or shower. Do not hesitate to book here!

A beautiful hotel in a lovely location. I was really impressed for the price, the people were great and the pool area perfect. Taxis were also arranged really easily and couldnt have been more helpful.

Staff was extremely helpful with all things. Pool was great. Room was comfortable and clean

Very friendly, helpful staff members. So close to black sand beach and great restaurant

Just lovely. Simple, quiet, fresh air. Attentive service. What more could one want from a hotel!

This is an amazing place to stay. Maria runs an absolute gem of a hotel in every way imaginable. Everything you want is within a few minutes walk from the beach to some great restaurants.

Very welcoming and accommodating. Great arrangement with a nearby Restaurant/Beach Club. Very relaxing and inviting area along the beach.

The hotel was lovely and in a fantastic location. The beach was a very short walk away (at the end of the road) and the choice of restaurants / bars, all within a short walk, were great. The hotel was lovely and the staff extremely helpful and welcoming. If I ever go back to Santorini, I wouldn’t hesitate in staying here again.

Great place to stay in Santorini. Great staff and services! Would definitely stay here again!

Such friendly staff. And the pool area was very relaxing. Everything was super clean and beautiful all around.

Amazing friendly staff, very clean. Close to beach and local amenities

Beautiful pool. Wonderful staff nothing too much trouble. Very clean

Absolutely best choice we could make picking this little gem. The pool area is peaceful, clean and lovely. There are always sun beds available. Toilets are exceptionally clean and also all areas. Daily housekeeping provided. The staff are very helpful and they are very pleasant and kind. The beach is 1min walk away. We have stayed in the economy room for 8 nights and it was more than enough for us. Highly recommended this hotel. Best wishes!

The hotel is so convenient for the beach and tavernas yet situated on a quiet back street. The staff are amazingly helpful and really make this hotel. Our ( standard) room was spacious and clean. Perissa is not the pretty side of the island but staying here is affordable and the hotel is well situated for the bus stop to take you to Fira and Oia . Staff were great at arranging taxis too - we visited pretty Red Beach (15 min taxi ride) The hotel has a lovely pool with bar which never felt overcrowded and we were able to use it and the showers after we had checked out and were awaiting our flight , a very thoughtful touch

Friendly and hospitable staff. Quiet and comfortable hotel close to the beach and near bus stops.

This place is real oasis of calm, it’s in an excellent location, it’s extremely clean and the staff are all so so lovely. It’s peaceful and relaxing. The beach is a few minutes walk and there is an array of restaurants and shops close by. This hotel was the best thing about our stay in Santorini and I wouldn’t hesitate to return, or to highly recommend it.

Very nice place to stay. The service was amazing. I love the location

Really great hotel. Clean rooms, nice shower, and amazing friendly staff. Only 4 minutes walk to the beach, with complimentary sunbeds. Only minor issue is there is no onsite restaurant. They have an arrangement to get food delivered, but it would be nice to have a restaurant serving breakfast on site. Didn't spoil our stay, and would stay again.

Nice room with walking distance to the beach.

I would certainly recommend this hotel. There is a very nice large pool, which is quite private and has plenty of room. The room was large with a beautiful balcony but a somewhat small bathroom. Staff was friendly. The beach is only 3 min. walk away and it is probably the best beach on the island. There is much to see on Santorini. My only minor complaints are that the water is not drinkable and there was noise from the room above. It may be some distance from the capital Fira but there is a regular and reliable bus.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself was so cute and very clean. I would definitely recommend and revisit.

The staff could not have been kinder. So helpful. Offered use of the property even after check out as our flight was late, including a shower area. Very quiet, sunny, beautiful property with private balcony. Very clean, comfortable beds, large rooms and painted beautiful. No coffee in room though but sweet little bar downstairs! ❤️

Staff were so friendly and helpful. Room kept so clean. Explained that we couldn’t drink tap water so had provided a bottle for arrival and a bottle of wine!! Lots of eating places within a short walk. All similar price ranges a few more expensive but generally the same .. generally all good quality food.. Would highly recommend Smaragdi as a base.

We stayed 1 night … but wished we’d stayed longer. Check in, check out - so easy. Our room was spacious, as well as the bathroom. Every area was spotless. We walked to the beach, then used the pool. They housed our luggage while we continued exploring. They had beach towels for use too. Well worth it!

Such a pretty place 🌸

everything was excellent, The hotel was clean, the staff were very helpful and I really felt home.

O hotel é incrível, bem arranjado.. o quarto também era grande, limpo. As funcionárias eram super atenciosas!

Very welcoming and helpful staff with a perfect environment for a relaxing stay, close to all amenities and the beach. Myself and my partner found this to be perfect for what we wanted and would love to return. Transfers were arranged with no trouble, meals were sorted and all the help you could require was on hand. The pool area is paradise and our "partial sea view" balcony was the perfect private area to relax and watch the world go by. We love Santorini.

Absolutely amazing. Will definitely return!!

Lovely joyful staff, clean and spacious room with lovely unique decor, great location by beach with many bars and resturants, close to bus stops and supermarket

Staff are fantastic and friendly. Knowledgeable and pleasant to spend time with as I went in the quieter season. Can’t do enough and deal with everything straight away. Such a pleasant little place, peaceful and beautiful. Nice rooms and 2 mins to the beach. They have free parking which they don’t advertise and give free sun beds at the beach. They a family run place and talking to guests some people have gone for 10+ years. 5 mins from local beachside restaurants and in the middle of the famous beach. On the quieter side of the island but a short taxi if you want a busier side of things but this place offered enough for me for a few days and I did a day trip to see the more famous/Instagram parts but honestly this place was a hidden gem

It was absolutely amazing!! The hotel, the location and the people who run it go way out of there way to help you on whatever you need!!!!!

Staff were so lovely, the condition of the hotel was amazing. Everything was clean and beautiful. They were really helpful for me as a solo traveller and someone who didn’t know the area. Highly recommend : )

Very friendly staff

Amazing staff!!! Everyone went above and beyond, especially Maria and Marianna at the reception. Would definitely recommend and coming back again

The staff at the Smaragdi Hotel are quite Sumy fantastic - quite simply the best. Attention to every detail and nothing too much trouble. So kind. We arrived early but were able to check in without a problem and the bar/pool area was wonderful. They even brought us clothes pegs for our swimstuff which was drying outside but at risk of blowing away in the wind. Highly recommended.

Very cosy and comfortable hotel. Not so big, good location. Absolutely helpful staff. Happy decided to stay in Perissa and not in ful with tourist packed Oia. 100% recommended for quite and peaceful vacation.

Clean and spacious rooms. Great pool area and only a couple of minutes from the beach. Service was great and very friendly.

The staff. They're very nice. They take care of their guests like no other, especially Marietta and George.

Nice property, well kept. Only a short walk to nice beach with restaurants. Overall very god experience.

This was a little difficult to find at first. There is parking in a lot nearby. Nice pool, quite cool. Service was great, as was our room. It was windy while we were here so we did not go to the beach, but enjoyed the pool area. The area isn’t great and you definitely need a car. Upon arrival via ferry we found a rather dirty car for 25 euro a day which was great. In our room there were drawers, but they were rather difficult to open. Bed was 2 twins without the centre piece so if you want to cuddle someone will end up half in the hole. Otherwise the room Size is good and we had a nice deck. We would stay here again.

I like the location, near the beach, nice view of mountains, friendly and attentive staff

Beautiful grounds, nice pool area, great location...so close to the beach. The only negative thing I have to say about this hotel is the bed was extremely firm and the pillows were very lumpy. That is my only compliant. The staff is beyond friendly and helpful!

Had an amzing stay, very helpful staff and lovely location near the beach

Relaxing and comfortable poolside surroundings yet a short walk to a beautiful beach made this a perfect choice for our stay. Welcoming and helpful staff made Smaragdi Hotel feel like a home away from home. Great for families.

A very friendly hotel. Great staff. Clean throughout. Excellent food.We will definitely revisit. 🙂

Beautiful hotel with the most friendly and helpful staff. Close to the beach and wonderful restaurants.

A wonderful stay the location is very convenient for the beach and tavernas and the hotel staff couldn’t do more to ensure your comfort. Would certainly recommend it to anyone.

Very helpful and friendly staff. Room was clean and nice. Good location near the beach.

Relaxed, beautifully clean very friendly, nice bar good snacks

Smaragdi is awesome - location is ideal in the heart of Perissa and the hotel is homely and tranquil. The staff are amazing and always helpful. We had a great time there and would thoroughly recommend this hotel.

Very friendly staff , helpful nothing is too much trouble for them . Location is fab .

Just a short walk to the beach I found this hotel very appealing. lovely buffet breakfast the ladies at the from desk are extremely helpful. Fantastic views of the hills and a vey relaxing pool area with easy access to the bar.

The property is beautiful and located within walking distance to the beach. Prior to arrival hotel provided prompt response to help me schedule airport transfer and info on tour excursions. Dimitris picked us up from airport holding a sign with our names and drove us to hotel. Maria and Marieta at reception were fantastic. They hosted a meeting on day 1 with information about hotel grounds and Santorini which was useful to make our holiday exceeding expectations. The hotel staff were friendly and knowledgeable with a shout out to Cleo and George that worked the pool bar. I chose the hotel prior to booking because of the wonderful reviews. I highly recommend Smaragdi Hotel to future guests. The staff made my trip an experience of a lifetime.

Awesome service. Always ready to give you useful information. I loved the staff and the location to the beach is everything

close to beach, even if property is not on beach side, free sunbeds. Free towels for use at beach. Rooms are neat and clean. Over all a great stay. Things to improve: Breakfast menu never changes. which is a problem for long stay. AC auto shut down when any door/window is open. This is a good idea but sensors are not perfect. many times we had to close and open window in order to run AC.

Staff was INCREDIBLE. Never been given a hug when I left back to the airport from front desk workers. So incredibly nice. Air conditioning could’ve worked better though. Friends didn’t have a problem with that in their rooms so must’ve just been mine.

We had a fantastic stay from start to finish. Lovely Friendly Greeting from Maria and get Staff. Lovely accommodation so clean excellent cleaning staff. Beautiful pool area. Really nice Breakfast Thank you to the kitchen staff A Lovely young girl looks after you . Cannit fault at all . Thank You for having us.

Everything was exceptional, staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Good location- walking distance to beach and hotel is cute... However- electricity went out several times, water didn’t work (couldn’t shower before flight - was told to - ‘wait awhile’, dog barked outside ALL night, given one towel for three days, a lot of flies in room, wind whistling all night could hear in room loudly. Decent price for a good location but I would spend a little more next time...

Best property in the area! Near the beach and clean!

Lovely staff, good location, nice pool and a decent breakfast. The only disappointing point was the room which did have a lot of black mould in the bathroom due to a lack of ventilation.

I liked the friendliness of the staff and the service was quite good and so was the locals.

All of Santorini is amazing, however, the staff at Smaragdi hotel was incredible, all of them. I honestly didnt stay anywhere else to compare the treatment I got there but as far as I am concerned, it doesn't get any better.

Staff are all incredibly friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. I'd definitely recommend and would stay there on a return trip.

Fantastic staff

Perfect in every way. Clean, great service and location to everything. Walk to beach, bars, restaurants, bus stop!! No need to rent a car. The owners and staff were so very sweet and accommodating. WE felt right at home. The breakfast...delicious and fresh every morning. So very glad my daughter and I stayed here. Will definitely come back to Santorini and stay with ,truly ,the absolute nicest people at Smaragdi. Gorgeous!!!! Thank you!!

Quiet beautiful hotel. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Staff was very helpful and professional.

Walking distance to bus transportation and lots of dining options.

We love Smaragdi Hotel, the staff are all nice, kind and helpful. The hotel is walking distance to the bus station, the mini market, the black sandy beach, restaurants and clubs, atm machine. We highly recommend this hotel our stay was very pleasant and enjoyed every minute of our stay. Love the amenities too. Great service, excellent location. Comfortable Hotel. Love the staff and the food was great too.

We wanted airport transfers both ways but they only gave you one. Breakfast was not included It’s close to the beach

Staff friendly and helpful. Room very nice but no view of beach or water. This hotel is a little out of the way. Our room was very nice. The bathroom was challenging which is why the 4 rating. Unfortunately, the recommended restaurant (with a 5% discount for Smaragdi guests) was the worst meal we had on our 2 weeks in Crete and Santorini. There are more choices in and near You will not find a nicer staff anywhere.

Lovely hotel and very close to the beach. Very close to most of the nice restaurants. Staff are very friendly and helpful they deserve “5 Stars”. Clean enough place. The room I stayed in needs a bit of comfort upgraded, but overall I had a nice experience.

Thanks for the hospitality it was a nice stay at this property, I hoped you had breakfast included
