Hotels near Dolphins Beach Bar and Restaurant in Santorini

We stayed at Nissos for a week as a group of 13 (+ baby) for a friends wedding and the hotel was perfect for us! The staff were all absolutely lovely, so relaxed and incredibly accommodating. The location is smack bang in the middle of Thira as well as being minutes from the bus station to explore the rest of the island. Couldn’t recommend staying here more- definitely request the room with the mega terrace overlooking the pool- iconic. Thanks again to all the staff you made our week wonderful!

Everything was PURE PERFECTION at the Caldera's Memories..... My husband and I stayed here in Sept 2021 and upon arrival, we were greeted by the lovely host, Lucas. He was so cheerful and welcoming. He knows exactly how to deliver top quality customer service, and was so quick to help organize our Santorini itinerary by giving us great advice and also tried to immediately find an ATV for us. We had a bit of trouble getting an ATV the same day because they were sold out - no ones fault obviously. However, Lucas worked hard to get one DELIVERED right to the hotel the very next morning with Panos from Garage ATV (and we also highly recommend this company! ) The whole process was so seamless and convenient. As far as location, the hotel is in Imerovigli which is a perfect spot for those who don't want to deal with the chaos and crowds of Thira and Oia. We found the location to be so peaceful, relaxed and definitely great for couples, older people and people who just want a quiet get away. We also loved that the hotel is rather small and only has about 8 rooms total. The location is also great because it's walking distance to Thira and a short cab ride/ATV ride from Oia We booked the honeymoon suite and the 2 story room was incredibly cute! They had the room decorated with white petals and swans made out of towels and champagne. It was definitely a vibe! The room was super clean, spacious, comfortable and had an AMAZING view of the caldera (all the rooms face the caldera so you can't go wrong with whichever room you book). There was nothing better than stepping out on to the balcony every morning and enjoying the sea view and then enjoying the stunning sunset at night. Additionally the room had a rainfall shower that was pure bliss and a very comfy bed. The rest of the hotel grounds were impressive, it's a small hotel, but you have alot of privacy here from the hikers that walk past, and the grounds are so immaculate. We would always see the pool being cleaned every night Breakfast was also fantastic! Every morning we were greeted by the super sweet server/host Poppy who enthusiastically explained all the options and was always very attentive (and never bothered by my demand for a second cappacino lol!) The food included eggs, croissants, pancakes, pastries, fruit, yogurt so we found it to be very generous, full of variety and delicious. We also opted to enjoy the sunset from the jacuzzi, which is inside the windmill and it was a perfect, romantic experience. You can rent it for an hour and it includes a bottle of red or white wine. What also made our stay here so memorable was the STAFF! Everybody was extremely kind, helpful, patient and went above and beyond. This is a family run business and you can definitely sense the pride they take in their hotel. We got to meet the owners, Michael and Koula and they were absolutely lovely. So if it felt great to not only enjoy an awesome hotel, but also support a family/small business! Overall

We are so happy with had the opportunity to meet our Hostess Arestides he was above and beyond exceptional. He was helpful and he was able to get our transportation to the airport the correct time. Also, any restaurant reservation he was able to take care that for us and suggested great restaurant by the area by calling the restaurant I making sure we get a table with a nice view. He was very nice explaining everything to us when we arrive to the hotel and show us all the highlights of the island the best beaches and places to go. We felt safe and happy everything we will go to the front desk, and he was there to assist us. I can't thank you enough for all you time and hospitality. we are so happy we stayed there. The staff were so friendly, the rooms were immaculate. It was so peaceful and safe. I loved our pool right outside of our room 101, and the breakfast was delicious. The hotel is not too far from the center to Fira by walk about 7 minutes. Thank you again Arestides and the entire Staff.

Lovely hotel that is very central in Fira. We stayed on the hotel side of Antonia and loved the decor of the room. We appreciated that they had shutters outside to help keep the noise and light of the room. The room was nicely appointed with many lights and we enjoyed the decor. The bed and pillows were very comfy and we appreciated that there was a coffee/tea station and a mini fridge in the room. The room was large enough for the two of us and there was a nice small balcony outside with a small table and two chairs. The bathroom shower had great pressure and plenty of hot water. The bed only had one sheet on it but there was a comforter and the temperature was easy to control. There was slippers available in the room which were good for the cold washroom floor. The hotel rooms have smart TVs that are easy to connect to for Disney+ or Netflix but you have to install an application if you'd like to screencast. The hotel has some nice common areas to hang out including two pool areas and a space by reception. The pools were closed when we came in March but it was also a little cool so we did not mind. They should be cleaned and ready to go by the summer. We really enjoyed the space by reception where there are lots of seats and benches to sit and hang out with other guests, or in our case the rest of our family. Anytime you are in the common area the staff will offer to make you a coffee or tea which was very nice of them. The staff are sincere and welcoming. Once we checked in they asked if we had some time or if we would want to go directly to our rooms. We said we would have time and they brought out a map of Santorini and marked down the places we could check out during our stay. The hotel also offers a good tour of the island for 40 Euros per person which includes 7 stops including Oia, red sand beach, a black sand beach and the monestary. We had 5 people in our group and did our own tour using a car rental company nearby but would consider the hotel's tour if we were just a couple. The hotel staff were helpful and responsive even before we came - they assisted us with a booking error I had made and we resolved it quickly over the phone and a short email. Transport to/from the hotel from the airport is easy because there is a bus station nearby and it costs 2 euros per person and the bus station is about a 5 minute walk from the hotel. The bus wasn't running too frequently during our stay on Santorini and if that is the case during your stay you can book the hotel's shuttle service - they have a large comfy van and charge 7 Euros per person. The alternative is a taxi and you are at the will of the driver for the ~10 minute drive and could be charged 40-50 from what we hear. The hotel does not offer breakfast or room service but there are many good restaurants nearby. The hotel recommended a few that were within a five minute walk of the hotel and the one we tried was lovely. There is a grocery store about 100 m from the hotel that has pretty much everything and there's a bakery near the Fira Main Square. Souvenirs can also be bought at the Fira Main Square and they probably have the best prices we saw in Santorini for souvenirs! Overall, it was a great stay and because we stayed in March we got an awesome price. The room we had was nice, quiet and comfy during our stay.

We booked to stay here as the hotel looked nice. We had been to Nikki Beach for the day in Koh Samui and it was great. In my own personal opinion if you are over 50 I do not think this would be a place for you. The staff are very pleasant especially the girls at breakfast they were very helpful and the breakfast is really nice. The room was very pleasant, clean and spacious, but where ever you stay in this hotel you can not get away from the noise of the music that starts at 11am and does not finish until 7pm. I unfortunately booked before reading the reviews and was quite distressed by some of them. I emailed Nikki Beach and asked if we could cancel. Surprise Surprise the answer was yes I could but would loose all of our money. I then emailed and asked if they had a separate hotel residents pool away from the beach club, which they assured me they did which made me feel more comfortable. On arrival we were told that the pool was shut and had been for the last month. When I spoke to the girl on reception at the beach club about this and told her it was just too noisy at the pool she just replied with ”well this is a beach club ma'am what do you expect” We were able to sit at the beach but not allowed to put up the umbrella's as it was too windy, so there was not shade. We ended up going out every day to get away. Another thing to consider, the hotel is about 2.5 miles away from nearest town of Kamari (which is lovely an lots of lovely places to eat) but the hotel charged 25 euros each way for a taxi. NIKKI BEACH if you want to be a hotel then consider your residents a little more. Nikki Beach is only interested in Instagrammers visiting taking a million pictures of themselves. THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT A PLACE TO COME FOR A RELAXING HOLIDAY.

This hotel was over the top incredible. I planned this trip with my 24 and 21 year old sons. It is an adults only hotel which is just what we wanted. The location (Fira) was perfect for us as it was a very easy walk to the restaurants in Fira and then we drove one night to Oia (which was very crowded and very difficult to find parking.) The staff was amazing, specifically Faye and Kostas. The views are exceptional. The humidity in our bathroom was on the higher side due to the hot tub, but my sons loved having it. Breakfast was served every morning (ordered the day before) with the staff notifying us by knocking on our door. What an incredible breakfast spread! You could not get better views. The room was huge…perfect for the three of us. I completely recommend this hotel.

We had a wonderful stay at Andronis Arcadia for our anniversary. Right from the moment we arrived, the hospitality was outstanding. My wife and I truly cherished every aspect of this hotel. We also had the opportunity to explore the other sister hotels on the island, making our experience even more special. The overall aesthetic of Andronis Arcadia is breathtaking, from the beautifully designed rooms and exquisite restaurants to the inviting pool area and the impeccably dressed staff. We were really impressed that we're already planning our next visit. And I can't forget to mention the incredible breakfast that catered to all our needs.

This place is wonderful! We had a very relaxing time. The balcony was delightful with a wonderful view of the little neighborhood and its churches as well as a view of the sea in the distance. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom quite nice. The kitchen had just about what we needed, though it was challenging to figure out how the hot plate worked and the Keurig required several pumps to make an American-sized cup of coffee. The breakfast delivered to our room was very nice, although there was too much food and we should have ordered one breakfast to share each day. Our main disappoin**ent was for some reason we thought we booked a room with a pool, because the photo showed it in our reservation. That was not the case, only a few units have pools. On the other hand it was too cool in early October to use it in the evening and morning, and we were usually out in the heat of the afternoon. We rented a car and found it stressful to drive in and out of the main entrance, where there was a sharp curve nearby and cars coming very fast from that direction. It was about a 10-minute drive to the town, not bad, but if I had to do it again I would check the bus schedule.

We stayed four nights at the hotel. Their staffs were professional and freindly. They were really hospitable. This hotel is a small hotel but very beautiful. Our suite room was really clean. It located close to the main square. It's very good option for those want to have a romantic accommodation.

Compared to oia and fira, the location of this hotel is relatively quiet, but the scenery of the cliff is still great
