We have been in september 5 years running staying with my family ( 5 persons) in
Atalos Villas Hotel.
The Atalos Villas are in a guiet position only 5 minutes from the supermarket and 7
minutes from the beach and tavernas.
The owner Yiannis helped to make such a happy time for us. They are both so
thoughful and work so hard to make sure you have a perfect holiday.
The rooms were spotlessby clean and had great balconies if you wanted to sit
outside in the evening.
The pool is very nice with plenty of sun beds and palm trees.
I am glad we stayed in Kamari, as it was more relaxed, and Thira- Oia both seemed
to be swarmed by the crowds coming from the cruise ships, and were also a lot more expensive.
We would highly recommend to go there and we will certainly be back.

We spent 1 week in Aug 07 in Atalos Villas and had a great time.

The owners – Giannis and Irini are extremely friendly and very accommodating. Giannis picked us at the airport and drove us back to airport at the end of our stay. If you need help finding a car, need extra kitchen stuff or just need some advice on where to go – Giannis and Irini would always help. Giannis always prepares breakfast and lunch snacks by the pool. Greek salad is highly recommended.

We had 1 bedroom apartment: 1 large bedroom with 2 queen beds + sofa and a separate 2nd bedroom with a full bed. 2nd bedroom is separated from the kitchenette by a curtain. Kitchenette had a refrigerator, gas stove, pans, dishes, all utensils, etc. Large bedroom had A/C and a very nice balcony with side sea view. The room was crystal clean – cleaned by Irini every day except Sunday.

Atalos Villas is not an ocean front property, but is only 3-4 minutes walking from the Kamari beach and the promenade with dozens of restaurants. Right before the beach are 2 small supermarkets.
Would definitely come back some time.

We booked directly via Atalos Villas web site. Some previous reviews suggested that that way you get a preferential treatment. Not sure about that but we were very happy with our choice.
My recommendation is – book directly with Atalos Villas.

My boyfriend and I stayed in the Atalos Apartments for two weeks this August and I couldn't think of a bad word to write about it! The owners Irini and Yiannis (not sure of spelling) were wonderful and their wee daughter Maria is a very sweet child! The location was brilliant, only 5 mins to the beach and you are surrounded by so many different restaurants suited to every taste. I would recommend staying in Kamari as although the West side of the island is great (views are stunning) it is a trek to the beach and you miss the cool sea breeze in places like Oia and Fira. One thing I would like to add is if you are considering booking a trip to Santorini through Xcel Travel first cost the trip yourself, it some cases you may find its a lot cheaper to book through Atalos apartments and get your own flights.....

Booked Atalos through Kosmar Holidays and quickly discovered that the owner gives preferential treatment to those who book directly with him. The rooms he allocates to Kosmar clients are a disgrace whereas the ones he allocates to those who have booked direct with him are quite grand in comparison!! When we arrived and were handed the key there was no sign of a "welcome" just an abrupt indication as to where the room was - the sight of which horrified us and we went to complain immediately - this initial complaint left us ostracised by him for the entire fortnight! The balcony was overlooking a buiders yard - cement mixer, scaffolding, wrecked car, etc. etc. the electrics were handing off both cerilings and walls. Never had a warm shower in the entire fortnight and the towels resembled sheets of sandpaper. He was rude to Kosmar guests and charming to those who had booked direct. The pool area was pleasant enough but frankly we wanted to be as far as possible away from Atalos and the owners.
