CULTURE,

From the welcome to the farewell, the staff at Villa Ilias were perhaps the friendliest and most helpful my wife and I have encountered. The team seems to be made of true locals, running what feels like a family business, with attention to every aspect of serving their clients

CULTURE,

The nicest people in the world run this hotel - they go out of their way to make sure you have what you need to enjoy the island

CULTURE,

L'équipe de la Villa Ilias (Maria et Giorgio) est très accueillante, toutes les informations nécessaires nous ont été fournies pour passer un agréable séjour, le service est au top,

cryingbear Le service est à la hauteur

CULTURE,

le personnel très sympathique et aidant, on se croyait presque chez des amis plus qu'à l'hotel! Tous les matins, un dépliant est remis avec des idées de visites, des conseils, la météo. C'est une attention que nous avons apprécié

BAR,

The poolside bar (which we did not use because we had 2 days of wind) allows us to admire the sunset from one of the most beautiful views of the area (we preferred this privacy rather than going to see it in Oia) enjoying a cocktail ..

LOCATION,

CULTURE,

26 Everything worked nicely, efficiently and as aggreed in this hotel - as we would be in Switzerland. The difference is in the hospitability of Greeks (sorry Swiss, you're nice too but...). We really enjoyed the relaxed and caring attitude of Villa Ilias staff, world-class view from the balcony,

CULTURE,

What really made the stay special was how friendly and helpful the staff are at Villa Illia. Georgios and Mary were always there to say good morning and offer advice for something to do that day or directions etc. They give the hotel a really great energy!

Julien

CLEANING & VIEW,

La propreté de la chambre est irréprochable, et la vue à couper le souffle depuis la fenêtre d'un côté et la terrasse de l'autre.

CULTURE,

Get in the simple Greek island mood and you will have a great time (providing the weather cooperates). CULTURE Best events, Greek dancing the night away at Taverna Dimitry on Fridays and a Catamaran day trip from Oia. Yep, George and Mary will take care of you!

BREAKFAST,

The casually themed breakfasts and happy hours, help with directions to tourist sites and tour recommendations were all spot on. The pool, and the view from the pool area, were delightful.

Dimitrios

Υπέροχο νησί, υπέροχη διαμονή, ευγενέστατοι και φιλικοί οικοδεσπότες. Το πρωινό ήταν πολύ καλό και πλούσιο. Κάθε μέρα και κάτι καινούργιο, με υπέροχη γεύση. Η θέα στο υφαίστειο τέλεια.  Η θέα, το κατάλυμα, το φαγητό ξυπνάει τον έρωτα μέσα σου.

Cryingbear

LOCATION,

L'hotel est situé probablement au meilleur endroit pour le point de vue, dans une petite ville calme qui jouxte Fira (on peut s'y rendre à pied par un agréable chemin panoramique).

Tania

CULTURE,

The staff was SO sweet to surprise me with a special birthday cake and sing me happy birthday - truly helped make my day extra special!

William

BREAKFAST,

10/10 The only reason I made the room 9.5 instead of 10... was so the staff and breakfast could be a little higher. The buffet is perfect, and everyday they have a special which means you get to try things you normally might not, and learn a little about their dishes. So tasty, so much coffee... yummm

Jose

EXPERIENCE,

This is truly one of my best Airbnb experiences so far! beautiful attitude towards everything!

Julien

CULTURE,

À la réception, Marie a tout fait pour nous simplifier la vie : réservation de quads, d'une croisière en catamaran autour de l'île, etc.

Madison

POOL BAR,

The pool bar was fun and made us feel like royalty.

Tania

BREAKFAST,

Typically I'm underwhelmed with hotel breakfasts but the spread each morning was very impressive with veggies, quality protein, a special dish of the day, delicious coffee and my all-time favorite - Greek yogurt

EXPERIENCE HONEYMOON,

This was a perfect honeymoon for us and we haven't thought of anything we would have changed about our stay at Villa Illias. Thanks to all the staff who make it a wonderful place to stay.

JOSE

SUNSET VIEW,

For the sunset don't go anywhere, grab a drink at the pool bar and enjoy one of the most stunning sunset you'll ever see!

Madison

CULTURE,

The staff became like family and even helped us out after check out. My friends and I were so sad to leave!

Sophie

BREAKFAST,

The breakfast buffet gets five stars! Lots of choices, everything fresh and delicious and they even had an extra dish every morning (e.g.: apple pie, crêpes, little donuts) that they brought to our table.

Tania

Experience,

I stayed here for my 30th birthday and it proved to be a stay I'll never forget!

JULIANA

LOCATION ,

The location is perfect- close enough to walk to Fira for dinner/night life, then retreat to the peace and solitude of Firostefani (Thought not that secluded- still plenty of good places to eat and drink).

Tracey

EXPERIENCE CULTURE,

The staff at Villa Ilias were a huge part of how I perceived the experience. Every morning our breakfast was different, and so delicious! The staff were relaxed, authentic in going about their jobs and always kind, and approachable.  We conversed with George many times during our stay. He is very much a part of the experience and great to chat to.

Katie

BREAKFAST,

The breakfast was included each morning and was GREAT! A little different each day, full of protein options and traditional Greek dishes too.

Kevin

EXPERIENCE ,

If we ever come back to this wonderful island I would stay here in a heartbeat!
