Fabulous location, amazing sea, hotel was perfect location, wonderful staff, felt so comfortable and relaxed, great service, great 7 days exploring the island, the cuisine, history and culture
Amazing location. Amazing staff. Amazing family atmosphere among the staff. The view is first class. The beach, facilities are excellent. Fabulous food and service and GREAT coffee (which is really important).
Do you want personalized service on the beach in Santorini? This is your place. Service would be 10 stars if it was available. The owner and his team handle everything from rooms to breakfast to transportation. Excellent boutique hotel with views from the hot tub. Outstanding!
This is a gem of a hotel right on the beach. The rooms are modern and of a reasonable size with an extra little hot tub. Staff were fabulous. The area surrounding the hotel was great, many dining options (go to Napoli pizzeria food is lovely and pasta freshly made). The Santorini restaurant has gorgeous food as well. We actually didn’t have a bad meal there at any restaurant. The bus is close by (about 10 min walk) and you can travel to Fira for €2 then pick up another bus to other areas of the island for another €2. The buses do get busy but it’s all manageable. I absolutely loved this hotel and would certainly go again. No complaints whatsoever about the hotel or surrounding area apart from the masseuse on the beach who are quite aggressive and touchy feely trying to get you to have an unlicensed massage going from one sweaty body to the next with no proper sanitation in between. That is my only complaint which didn’t affect my stay it was just a nuisance every 5 mins. I found the best thing to do was totally ignore them.
If you’re looking for the kind of place that makes Santorini feel even more magical, Elixir del Mar is it!
From the moment we arrived, the owner set the tone for an unforgettable stay. He was warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in making every guest feel special. It’s rare to find that level of personal care, and it truly elevated the entire experience.
The bartenders deserve a spotlight of their own—every coffee and cocktail was crafted to perfection. Each visit to the bar was an amazing experience.
Mornings quickly became something to look forward to thanks to the incredible breakfast. Fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, it was the perfect way to start each day before heading out to explore.
And the location?! Absolutely unbeatable! It is right on the boardwalk in Kamari and steps away from stunning beach views, great dining, and the vibrant energy Santorini is known for! —Yet the hotel still manages to feel like a private retreat. The rooms are beautiful and spacious with their own private Jacuzzi.
This place doesn’t just offer a stay—it delivers an experience. I would give this place 10 stars if I could. I would return in a heartbeat.
Spent 2 weeks at the Elixir del mar, our room was excellent with a hot tub on the terrace, which we used every day and had a beautiful view of the Aegean Sea whilst we sipped a glass of wine!
Breakfast was great and plentiful, omelettes pastries yogurt and fruit, orange juice and coffee, right on the beach!
We loved the beach, stony but had come prepared with swim shoes, a few days the waves we too much for me so the pool was used those days, always plenty loungers, and kept nice and clean,
We loved the fact there weren’t any mosquitoes around not sure if this continues into high summer!
Dined at the restaurant our first evening and the food was good but so many other restaurants and evenings out at different locations meant we didn’t get a chance to eat there again!
Staff all great and friendly, very helpful,
Pool area and changing facilities for late checkout could use some updating!
All in all highly recommended this Hotel!
Helt magiskt på detta hotell, alltid rent rum med nya handdukar , mycket trevlig personal med topp service, 20m till stranden, och frukosten är underbar.
El hotel es muy bonito y agradable, tiene acceso a la playa, el personlal es muy amable y siempre esta al pendiente de que te la pases muy bien
Sin duda un muy buen lugar para quedarte.
Tolles Hotel am Strand, Zimmer ziemlich neu renoviert und schön, der private Whirlpool auf der Terrasse war noch nicht in Betrieb. Pool OK, Frühstück bei den auf der anderen Seite der Strandpromenade liegenden Tischen, direkt am Strand war einfach traumhaft. Beim ersten Mal waren wir ob des servierten Frühstücksbuffets, wo man aus einer Karte jede Speise max. einmal auswählen konnte, etwas irritiert, aber wir haben das System dann auch kapiert. Freundliches Personal.
Wir kommen gerne wieder.
Kleines sehr nettes Hotel, sehr gutes Frühstück a la carte zu wählen (vermutlich wegen Corona kein Buffet). Gepflegter Pool mit Blick aufs Meer. Eigener Strand mit eigenen Liegen und Sonnenschirmen direkt vor dem Hotel. Wir hatten ein Superior Zimmer mit großer Terrasse und Meerblick. Einzig das Badezimmer war nur durchschnittlich (Duschvorhang) aber sauber!

Great location
Nice place, renovated from an old structure, nice staff, good breakfast, slow wifi, overall good place to stay.
It is an excellent hotel! I will rate it as five stars ! Everything was perfect. We really enjoyed our stay ! I will recommend to everyone! I will go back !
Check in was the only thing pleasant. There is no parking on the property and the staff was not helpful at all. Breakfast was basic and the building is old. You can’t beat the location but do not expect the staff to be attentive of your need. Best avoided if travel with kids
