The location is amazing. We were in a two bedroom villa with another couple. It was very spacious, clean and well stocked bathrooms. In suite amazing breakfast service on our patio overlooking the caldera.
Nothing. Maybe too much food served at breakfast :-)

The White Ark is absolutely amazing! The accommodation is modern and beautiful, with a million dollar view and private pool. The location is convenient to all shops and restaurants. My favourite aspect was that from this position, you get your very own private view of the Santorini sunset each night without the crowds. The staff were so friendly and accommodating, and a delicious breakfast was provided each day.

Everything. The location is perfect; very close to the city yet far from the noise. The property is clean and has everything you’ll need, the staff is exceptional (very welcoming and helpful), and the really big private pool makes it an absolute value for money. We’ll definitely book this property again next time we’re on Santorini.
I’m not even going to mention the spectacular view you get, because words can’t do justice.

The location was idea! The staff, Phanourios and Clyde went out of their way to make sure we had all we need. We ask for Banana’s one morning, and although they didn’t have any, Phanourios stopped at the market to bring us some the next morning! Thank you for gentleman for such a great experience in Santorini!

The view is amazing, you get to see Fira on one side and the sunset on the other side, with in the middle the volcano.
The manager is really nice and accommodating.
Breakfast was huge and really good, serve in the morning to your villa when you need it.
The king size bed was very confortable and the villa really clean. The mains avantages of this villa remain the view and the staff.

The White Ark is incredible! The property is immaculate and provides all the necessary amenities during your stay. Our two bedroom suite had private areas and bathrooms. The kitchen and dining area was clean and spacious. The outside patio and pool area was like our own private resort. The attention to detail and service was outstanding. The location was away from thebusy tourist area and provided beautiful views. I would highly recommend booking your next vacation to Santorini at the White Ark.

Our location was the envy of every tourist walking by. We had our own infinity pool overlooking the sea, two floors, lots of space, and a gorgeous shower that looks over the sea too. We absolutely loved it. There is shade if you need it. The service was excellent and very quick.
This is the way Santorini (Fira) is. Everyone can see you when you are at the pool. Of course, everyone is wishing they could be you at the pool, drinking refreshing beverages and lounging in the most plush seats... however, you can't walk around naked unless you want to shock the tourists. There is absolutely nothing White Ark can do about this. That is the way Fira is built by nature.

Amazing sea views--no need to fight the sunset crowds at Oja. Loved the "cave pool" on the expansive deck and the abundant, tasty breakfast that welcomed us there in the morning. We booked a villa, which was perfect for my husband and me travelling with an adult daughter. We had separate bedrooms and baths, all clean and attractively decorated. Although the accommodations were difficult to reach with heavy suitcases, the hosts were most helpful in meeting our taxi on arrival and assisting our departure by taxi. It was the perfect place to relax after our long plane trip.
We would love to return--more lightly packed--for a longer stay at White Ark.

the views are absolutely incredible particularly from the infinity pool. breakfast was served to us in our room at a time of our choice and was an absolutely lovely spread. also lovely little touches like the hotel gave us a bottle of wine to enjoy for our anniversary, it has all of the toiletries you can need including toothbrushes, toothpaste etc and the bed was very comfy!
nothing! we had an absolutely fantastic stay. it seems quite pricey to start but well worth the money based on service and what’s included

Viiew from the terrace and pool area are great. Pool has a really good size.
I initially did not want to leave a review of this place, but as I paid a lot of money, I think it is only fair.
Unfortunatelly the property did not meet my expectations.
First, the staff on site. Not really friendly or offering to help with luggage up the stairs from the property, upon leaving. Just simply saying good-bye and locking the gate. No ask whether my stay was good or not. Quite dissapointed for a luxury type of stay.
The pool is nice, but not private. All people walking on the path outside are taking pictures and the pool is visible.
Unfortunatelly, I booked the Mare Villa as it seemed a bit more private, but was upgraded to Noah Villa, a bit less private.
Mare Villa was in fact occupied by others.
Breakfast was ok-ish.
Sorry to say, but I do not plan staying at White Ark again. I stayed at the property as a treat for my birthday but did not feel it was a great value for money.

general Island comment: sporadic electric outages can trip circuit and impact hot water temporarily- a reset is necessary by onsite staff.

Everything :) the view was incredible. The hosts were extremely friendly, helpful and always available. The room was cleaned daily and breakfast delivered each morning. It feels extremely secluded/private but only a few minutes walk from Fira. Truly a great place!

This is the property to stay at in Santorini. We had originally booked other accommodation but were so disappointed in its standard on arrival that we started searching for alternate accomodation and saw White Ark while walking around the town. On seeing it was available for our dates, we chatted with the manager Fanis, and then locked in White Ark for the remaining two nights of our time in Santorini. We were not disappointed with this decision. The reviews about how good this property is are all true! From the architectural design, private infinity pool, to stunning and uninterrupted views of the caldera all day. This property single handily uplifted our mood and time in Santorini. If we come back, we will stay here again.
Pool could have been a couple of degrees warmer. Also, main bedroom gets a little bit stuffy. A fly wire window/door would help rather than needing to use the aircon overnight.

White Ark was what you dream of when you think of staying in a white cliff side place in Santorini. We absolutely loved our stay. The Villa was very spacious, with two bedrooms, a cave style shower and a massive terrace. We were greeted with a bottle of wine and spent the whole evening in the gorgeous cave pool overlooking the caldera Sunset. In the morning we got massages on the balcony that were amazing, and we were able to store our luggage for a few hours after checking out so that we could wander until our ride to the port arrived. Highly recommend!!

Spectacular rooms, from the moment you arrived and walked down the stairs, just amazing. The terrace with the pool was gorgeous, with fabulous views over the caldera that could be seen from the comfort of the pool. Breakfast was served on the terrace and was delicious and plentiful, with more options than we could possibly eat. The room was beautifully presented and furnished, with two of the most comfortable beds we've tried, and the showers were luxurious. The host was amazing and happy to accommodate us with storing luggage while we waited for flights. Cannot say enough about this place, thoroughly recommend, worth every penny.

Where do we start?? This was our favorite stop in 3 weeks of travel! We ended up only getting about 30 hours there, which was sad, but the room was gorgeous, then the views were epic!! The staff was very accommodating and helpful!! The view from our room was stunning, but sitting in our own private pool to watch sunset instead of competing for a spot on the path along the cliffs was so wonderful! Our pool was much more private and larger than many other hotels offering private pools. It was very clean and there were no hotels below us so you just looked out over the water. They brought you breakfast out on your private patio in the morning when you scheduled for. Even in our short stay we were so relaxed and didn't want to leave. They greeted us with a nice bottle of wine, just in time for the gorgeous sunset. We plan on returning when we have more time to stay in drink in the beauty and relaxation we experienced in our short visit there. Loved it!!
I can't really think of anything, this place was wonderful! Maybe if I was really picking I would say the pool temp could have been a few degrees warmer, but that was it!
