This is NOT a private villa and there is no hot tub! There is a luke warm pool that everyone can see from the street. We really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately there were so many issues. Upon checkout, Alex was extremely unprofessional and yelled in our faces. Very disrespectful! We were celebrating an engagement; there was nothing done to make this stay special. We were also not notified that we would be charged for laundry and “late checkout” due to the power going out for hours the morning we were leaving. We were sweating, could not charge our phones, and couldn’t get ready to get to our next destination. The place had ants all over the stairs and loud construction was going on the entire 8 day stay. Another couple checked in and was equally frustrated due to the false advertisement of what this place actually offers. Finally, we were told because this is a family business, they will dispute and delete all negative reviews. This is highly unprofessional and unacceptable since everyone deserves an honest review when choosing to spend their own money for all travel occasions.

Villas are located part way between Oia shopping and Ammoudi Bay which is a blessing and a curse since both require going up/down hills. However Ammoudi bay has a free shuttle hear the villas which is helpful. The beds at the villas are very hard. The pool is at a good temperature. It is not a hot tub though. Breakfast comes within an hour of when you select it delivered. Sunsets viewing options are close. Staff is helpful.

This property was perfecf for our stay in Oia Santorini. The property is down the hill from Oia. A quick 10 minute walk but steep hill. Outside of the property there were Free Shuttles to Ahmoudi bay where you have 4 great restaurants with perfect views of the Sunset. Sunset bar was our fav and also Michael Jordan and Oprah been here.. Alex our concierge took care of everything. Rentals and airport transfers. Also a great breakfast. The pool for each villa was perfect and made our stay in Santorini relaxing since there are not many beaches near Oia... Would definitely recommend to any American looking for perfect stay in Oia. Make sure you rent a car or vehicle if staying for few days to visit other towns. Oia is always crowded except for late evenings.

Katharos Villas are a great place to stay.
Close enough to the bay and the centre but far enough away not to get caught up in the hustle and bustle.
Everything is walkable if you are reasonably fit and able, if not there are a number of taxi options.
Our host, Alex, was super helpful and made us feel welcome throughout.
The selection of goods put in the villa prior to our arrival were really good too… water, fruit, coffee, bread etc… all the essentials.
For the cost of the Villa our stay represented great value. If you are looking for perfection and 180 degree caldera reviews… expect to pay at least 3 times what it costs to stay here. The villas themselves are well equipped, quiet and cosy (but not small)… We were a party of 4, 2 adults and 2 teenage daughters… The villa easily accommodated us all.
We would return here.
