We stayed at the Kavalari for 3 nights during our stay in Santorini. I looked at many, many other hotels in Fira as options, but am so glad we chose the Kavalari. From the great location (right in the center of town) to the amazing view (direct view to the caldera) it was the perfect spot to be on the perfect Greek Island. Giorgos was so helpful with his knowledge of the island and recommendations on what to see & do.

Wonderful staff, fabulous view, great location....a highlight of our trip

Our party of four just returned from Greece, and our stay in Santorini at the Kavalari was the highlight. The hotel is nice and the staff very friendly, but it was the view that mattered most.

We stayed in a larger room (4 adults) with kitchenette, and noticed a little musty smell as others have reported. But since it was Sept., it was not that bad. Besides, we were always on the terrace watching sunsets, the caldera, cruise ships coming & going below, etc.

We found the breakfast quite good - breads and croissants with various jams, honey, butter, etc. And the breakfast server was friendly and helpful. Fresh squeezed OJ is also part of the breakfast.

A hotel stay in Santorini with caldera views is expensive; we did not think we could afford it. The Kavalari was reasonably priced and so we were able to do so. And it is worth it; the views are stunning. Sunsets from the terrace are a dream.

Four thumbs way up for the Kavalari!!

Someone recommended the Hotel Kavalari to me when I told them my cousin & I would be going to Santorini. He said the cave room was amazing. Well...if you don't get the cave room be prepared to stay in
what felt like a Hostel. The beds were more like cots and less than a foot off the floor. The toilet, television and phone didn't work. And...let me tell you, our room looked absolutely nothing like anything on the website. Please avoid this hotel at all costs.
