Room with a View!

My daughter and I stayed at William’s Houses in early Sept. Zaphira at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The apartment was wonderful, with a private balcony overlooking the caldera. Being in Akrotiri was away from the action and bustle of Fira or Oia, but we enjoyed the quiet (and the view). When we needed to get to Fira, Zaphira arranged private transport for us, or you could ride the bus. Akrotiri village, with a convenience store and variety of restaurants, was only about a 10 min walk. Breakfast is included, and we enjoyed eating on the terrace of the hotel, taking in the view. Great place! I highly recommend!

This place is beautiful and clean. It is very efficiently run by very friendly staff. We had a fabulous outside area which we really enjoyed. The views are breathtaking from the property. The breakfast was varied and delicious. We attended the local traditional dancing event which we really enjoyed and did the recommended boat trip from Red Beach to White and Black beaches- very good. Buses are regular from the village square. It is an 11 minute uphill ( mostly) from the square but it kept us fit. The village has a great shop, some lovely tavernas and a quiet charm. Buses to the main town of Fira took around 20 minutes.

Being a well traveled person across the globe - I don't say it lightly when I say this is one of the most amazing hotels I have ever stayed in...I'm normally "cynical" about images hotels use to tempt you to book - but in this instance - the photo's don't do the views any justice - the room we had (room 6) had the most amazing views (both sea & landscapes) Staff are absolutely amazing - nothing is too much trouble for Zafira and her team 10/10 from me - I've stayed in some amazing places in the World - but this is one hotel I will definitely be returning to in the future

If you’ve come across this property, book it! The whole staff were extremely friendly and attentive. They helped us out this transfers to the airport, quad rentals and more! The breakfast was amazing every morning. Our room was perfect for the two of us with an amazing view and large patio. I highly recommend staying in Akrotiri vs Oia or Fira as it is not as busy and gives a more relaxing feel. Rent the quads and explore the beaches and the lighthouse. Best property we have stayed at!

Nice Hotel in Akrotiri

The hotel staff at William's Houses was friendly. The bed was a little uncomfortable, but that was the only negative about the hotel. The breakfast each morning was great and the view of the Caldera from the hot tub on the front veranda was spectacular. This is a very nice hotel for a couple's stay.

Wonderful little hotel.

Beautiful place with amazing views across the caldera. Lovely restaurant next door. They also provide a taxi service if you want to go out to eat and don't want to drive. Also take advantage of the transfer service to and from the hotel. I was collected from another hotel and then a quick trip to the airport for only 25 euro, yes you can get a cheaper transfer package, but I'd rather not spend an hour trundling round other hotels when i can get straight to the hotel.
