Blu Rooms Santorini

Gorgeous location and beautiful rooms. Lovely breakfast.

Nothing, it was lovely!

Beautiful views. Delicious breakfast. Excellent service at the reception.

The property was well maintained, clean and easy to find. The pool is a distance away from the hotel but accessible by a private road. .

The only thing I would say is our second room which has a patio door and side panel lets in too much light!!! I struggle to sleep really

My stay at Blu Rooms in a junior suite overlooking the caldera was nothing short of magical. The sunset views from the room were absolutely breathtaking — front-row seats to Santorini’s famous skies without having to fight a single crowd for the view. That’s really what sets Akrotiri apart. If you want the real Santorini experience — peaceful, authentic, and away from the Instagram-hungry crowds of Oia and Imerovigli — this is where you should stay. Those villages are undeniably beautiful, but they’re also noisy, congested, and packed with tourists jostling for the same photo. Akrotiri gave me the tranquility I was actually looking for on this trip. A huge part of what made this stay so special was the manager, Katerina Karderis. She goes above and beyond to make every guest feel warm, cared for, and truly welcome. She was always available on WhatsApp for anything I needed throughout my stay — a level of attentiveness that’s rare to find. A few practical tips for future guests: ∙ Transportation on Santorini is expensive and limited. Budget around 39-40 euros each way into town, and I’d recommend either booking tours with hotel pickup/drop-off included or renting a car for more flexibility. ∙ Stock up before you arrive. The nearest mini mart is a 10-12 minute walk from the hotel, so grab snacks and water on your way in. ∙ Explore the village. Akrotiri village itself is just a 10-12 minute walk away and has some lovely local spots — Mistali for a relaxed meal and Akrotiri Bar for drinks. Overall, this was the perfect base for anyone wanting to experience the beauty of Santorini without the chaos. Highly recommend, and I’d stay here again in a heartbeat.
