Santo Miramare Beach Resort

We stayed for a week but wish it had been two. The hotel and grounds are immaculate and well maintained. The rooms are simple and elegant. We had one of the ground floor ones close to the pool. Initially, we were disappointed that we didn’t have a balcony, but after a day or so realised that we were better off where we were as we could chat with our two neighbours on the terrace and get to the pool really easily. There’s everything you need in the rooms, comfy beds and pillows, fridge, and if you ask you can get a kettle. We had a sofa but I’m not sure all the rooms do. The shower was powerful but the hairdryer wasn’t so maybe pack your own. Clean sheets and Fresh towels every day. Good air conditioning. The cleaners were excellent and kept everything spick and span. When we arrived, we noticed a small tear in the cover of the sofa and mentioned it to reception as we didn’t want them to think we had done it. By the time we got back to our room later that evening, it had been replaced!. Pool towels are supplied to though we had packed our own thinking as B&B guests they might not be available to us. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff, they were fabulous. We have to give a special shout out to Edmond who will carry your bags to your room on arrival and come and say hello and give you a lovely smile every day. There is plenty of space and with the 4 pools there is somewhere for everybody. We didn’t spend much time at the beach which was literally a few feet from the gate, there’s a steep shelf into the water off the very hot black sand beach and we preferred it in the evening when the local families were there too. Perissa is about a 30-40 minute walk but it’ll take you longer if you keep stopping to find shade like we did. There are loads of restaurants within a 10 minute walk, certainly enough to try a different one every night for a fortnight! Small supermarket 2 minutes walk from the hotel which sold basics and booze. We met some lovely people on this holiday and wished we had booked for longer. We would highly recommend a holiday here.

We had an amazing week at the Santo Miramare , the hotel is spotless the cleaner for our room was fab amazing towel folding - thank you we were in 137 - as we didn’t have her name . Went with TUI the rep and guides were fab . The bar staff were great a big thank you to Maria who works so hard and is friendly and helpful. The surrounding area provides great places to eat , the hotel beach is great but we never had an issue getting a bed by the pool . Breakfast can be busy but fab selection and good quality . Beds comfy - thank you for an amazing experience.

Just got back from this lovely hotel and can't really fault it although there could have been some music played in the bar/pool area.We ate at sunny J's, terra nerra, Popeyes and taste of the beach- all along the front and all fantastic.We took the bus to kamari,fira and oia all of which were good but the coach journeys are a bit of a faff we ended up getting a taxi back each time as too much on the bus Overall we thought Santorini was a gorgeous place and would definitely go back

Just come back after spending a week at this fabulous resort. Great friendly staff, the rooms are spotless & cleaned every day & breakfast was great with lots of choices to choose from. Great location with lots of good restaurants to the rear of the hotel . Only downside is not much entertainment on at night in the hotel & just a little bit of music may help fill the bar up more .

Very good hotel, would stay again. On seafront, close to bars and resturants, room was spacious and clean, pools were a bit noisy with kids, could do with adult only pool, service at pool bar in the evening was very good with only 1 waitress but strangely slow during the day with more people serving. Breakfast was very good, good selection, the only thing we didn't like were the cats in the dinning area with one of the staff feeding them, but if you like cats I would recommend this hotel.

Gorgeous hotel in a lovely location - location is quite with a huge beach and plenty of traditional tavernas - hotel is spotlessly clean and the staff work exceptionally hard to maintain this - breakfast was busy but totally fine - sun beds: but annoying but always fine. However.. on the last two days a wedding party arrived and invited all their friends from other hotels who took a load of sun beds and the mess they left behind was absolutely disgusting. This isn’t the hotels fault but they didn’t check who any of these people were. The lovely, relaxing l, quiet hotel quickly became a very rowdy place. We were glad to leave when we did. - I’d recommend hiring a car - food is lovely Bit pricey but the whole island is so it’s to be expected.

This hotel's absolutely fantastic! Great location, beautiful modern rooms, lovely pools, and a great private beach. The resort is very quiet, clean and has a safe, relaxed vibe throughout. There's great WiFi everywhere except the beach. Absolutely all of the staff are incredibly hardworking and friendly. The pool bar serves excellent food - beautifully presented and generous portions. Stella deserves a special shout out for being super friendly and helpful. The bar is a little pricey, but worth it. I stayed with my 17 year old daughter in a family room, room 105. It was ground floor, so a little bit dark inside, and with no view, which was a shame. But it was right next to a pool and had a large pretty terrace, which felt private. The air conditioning was fantastic throughout. This room type would be ideal for a family with small children. You enter into the living room, where the child(ren) sleep(s), an ensuite toilet and sink. Then there's a door to the main, large bedroom, which has lots of storage space. The main bathroom is off this bedroom; it's a large wetroom with wonderfully powerful shower. Both rooms have a TV with mostly European channels. There's a fridge in the room and a minimarket 2 mins away. We stayed half board. Breakfast was great, although very busy, so not especially relaxing! Dinner was your standard buffet. It's probably better to stay B&B or room-only, as there are lots of nice tavernas adjacent to the beach. We went on the Island bus tour, Majestic Spots of Santorini from Kamari Travel (bought from our Jet2 rep, but cheaper on TripAdvisor!) which I don't recommend in peak summer season (!), see my separate review. I only have only a few suggestions for ways this hotel could improve: - Reserve one of the pools as a quiet pool - Add more seating at the pool bar when there is live music on; we couldn't find a seat on these evenings - Introduce do not disturb signs for the rooms - Remove towels from poolside sunbeds. They *say* they do this at set times, but I don't think they do. Some days we couldn't get a sunbed, but the beach always had some available. - Guarantee guests flying home late in the day the option of keeping the room for an extra day. I was happy to pay the extra 60 Euros, but there wasn't one available for us. (The showers in reception were out of order that day, and the one in the gym didn't have a lock on the door!) Overall, highly recommended! 😎

Our stay at this hotel was absolutely perfect. The hotel is stunning, beautiful views from our balcony right on sea front. The food was amazing and not too pricey. The service was spectacular the night staff Maria and Pamioun were amazing so friendly and just a great experience. Would highly recommend this hotel.
