We stayed at Vila Ilias for one night back in august 2008, we were holidaying on the island of Naxos but decided to visit Santorini. I had found the Ilias by chance on the internet some months before and it was exactly what I had been looking for. We rang the hotel prior to our visit and asked if they... more

April, May, and October are excellent times to travel to Greece and I just returned from a wonderful October stay at Hotel Villa Ilias! Beautiful weather and no crowds! This comfortable hotel is located on the caldera in Firostefani, a quiet village just above Fira, the main town. Hosts George and Pauline were extremely helpful with all my requests about... more

Spent two nights at Villa Ilias and enjoyed our stay. Rooms are clean, comfortable and simple. Breakfast included a good selection of breads, pies, cereals, juices, eggs and coffee. Free fast wireless internet. Very helpful staff. Great location, away from the souvenir shops and boat loads of tourist, yet close enough to walk there. more

We arrived in Santorini in the afternoon, and despite explicit notes on the website decided to walk to Villa Ilias from the Fira bus stop, take the bus! Once we arrived and were taken to our room we were astonished! We got the private roof room (SO WORTH IT) and had the most breathtaking view of the island. The breakfast... more

Stayed two nights in August and would definitely come here again. The view from the pool area is absolutely breathtaking- especially the sunsets. Fira is a brief walk away. Oia is a short bus ride away. This is a perfect place to use as home base if you are into exploring the island. Nice to come back to a serene,... more
