We had a fantastic stay at Villa Manos.It was our favorite hotel in Greece.The owners and the all the staff were the nicest people ever.They were happy to help us with anything (scooters, cars, excursions,kayak,donkeys,scuba diving,snorkeling...) There is a bus stop right out site to go to every area of the island.The pool is amazing and the rooms were very clean.The breakfast was so good and the value for money couldn't be better.We will be back.

Hands down the best place I stayed in Europe. When we got there, poppy the owner gave us a free hot meal. Her husband drove us around the island for free. Just amazing. Couldn't recommend highly enough. Love you poppy!!!!

Overall was a good place to stay, the staff was very nice and welcoming. We liked the breakfast, even though it wasn't free. Our bathroom could have used some updating, but our biggest issue was the location. Be warned, it is not in one of the towns! If you want to go to Oia or Fira or the beach you must take the bus which is less than reliable!!! Don't count on walking- it is literally on the side of the road. A nice place but had I known I would have picked a better location.

This hotel was absolutely amazing! Poppy and the rest of the staff are SO nice!!! The service here is above and beyond. The rooms are nice, the breakfast is delicious, the location is beautiful... This hotel really made my trip outstanding. I can't wait to come back and stay here again! Honestly, don't even think about trying to find a better place to stay in Santorini. You won't find one.

The staff is the friendliest most welcoming people I have ever met. They go out of their way to help in any way. We originally booked for 2 nights and ended up staying for 5.

Best hostel I have ever stayed in! This place is like a resort. Staff are extraordinarily friendly, I haven't met a nicer family anywhere. I can't recommend this place more highly. If you are going to Santorini this is your place!

This has to be the most amazing hostel I have ever stayed with. They offered me free pick up service to and forth the port, upgraded me to a double-bed room (huge room) and offered me welcoming meals! The hosts were very kind to help me book my activities on the island. They even gave me a bottle of greek wine when I left. The only con is that transport to the town is problematic if you don't rent a car (infrequent buses/ 20 mins walk on narrow footpath) but totally not the hostel's fault!

This hostel was amazing. The staff were beyond helpful, and even helped through a nightmare with my flight. The place was just absolutely perfect. I was offered several complimentary meals, just as a thank you for staying here. And when I left, they gave me a bottle of wine. They were incredibly welcoming and I would recommend this place to anyone.

The owner and all the staff are very friendly, they make you feel like home with a lot of attentions. Location is good considering that the island is very small but it is imperative to rent a car because bus hours are not convinient

This Hotel was great!! Poppy is such a wonderful women! Nearly everyday of our stay she brought us free food and drinks and she sent us off with a bottle of wine. They have many services for us as well. The only downside was how expensive it was to do laundry. 18 euros is way overpriced and it took 3 days to get our laundry, I would have gone to a laundromat for that price and had my laundry back in 2 hours.

This is the best hostel I have ever stayed in.... the hotel is owned by a couple... who do everything possible to make your stay the best... they provide pick up and drop off to the port for the ferries.... on the arrival and when you depart they provide free meals.... (no one ever expected that) ....free wifi.. perfect location....in the middle of city... and a bottle of local wine as present.. only 10 euros per night.... i would have paid even 20 for the kind of services they provided....

the couple are so nice, picking and send us at the port. when we went to their hostel, they cooked us a free meal and present a bottle of wine when we left. it was cold so the swimming pool did not fill when we came. but when we leave, others require to use the swimming pool and the water is so warm to swim. really a good place except the bathroom. the shower place is too small.
