It was a nice location and close to everything. The breakfast was really good. The lady who cleaned the rooms always did a thorough job which we appreciated. The AC kept turning off and the room would get hot. Not sure what the issue was or if it happened to anyone else. I would stay here again if the AC problem was fixed.

The bathrooms are quite small but the overall room was fine. We were very close to the kitchen so we were woken up every day at 6:00 to 6:30. The breakfast was lovely and there was a lot to,choose from. The pool was not heated but the area by the pool was very pretty and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helped us with anything we asked of them.

Horizon hotel stay
The Horizon hotel is a 10 minute walk from the beach and has a lovely pool . I arrived as a single traveller and received a warm welcome and felt very safe . The room was lovely , very clean with a balcony overlooking the sea . The breakfast is continental and you can sit outside in the sun to eat . The hotel is a family business and therefore you feel you are being welcomed into someone’s home . I would definitely return to the Horizon hotel .

This is a small family run hotel with a lovely swimming pool. George and his family are friendly and welcoming. George will help with arranging taxis, trips etc. The place is kept very clean. Rooms have a fridge, kettle and hospitality tray. The bottle of water on the first day is a kind gesture. It's a 10 to 15 minute walk to a huge selections of restaurants and bars many of which are adjacent to the black volcanic sand. The local bus stop is nearby.

Horizon Resort is immaculately clean, and George and his family are efficient and attentive. George makes an amazing Greek salad, and is happy to pass the time of day with guests, around the pool bar, over a beer or a raki. Due to cancelled flights, we were two days late arriving at the hotel, and George upgraded our rooms at no cost to us. We had a memorable holiday and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Dear Anzon Lee, You have never stayed at Horizon Resort because you did a no-show. A couple of days before your check-in you decided to send us an email to inform us that you had booked 2 hotels for the same time and you wanted to cancel free of charge the booking with our hotel which we denied. So as a conclusion you give us 4 out of 10 stars because we didn't refund you.

Horizon Resort is a small family run Hotel located on the outskirts of Kamari (5 - 10 minute walk). The rooms are more than adequate with Air-Con, En-suite shower room, hairdryer, fridge, tea/coffee making facilities. Rooms were cleaned daily and thoroughly. Breakfast is in the form of continental breakfast with fruit, bread, cake, cheese, ham, etc and as much as you want. The pool is excellent with no issues over sunbeds and a great poolside service with beer, Raki and food.

Quiet location, but easy enough to get to where you want to be. The family take pride in their hotel & rightly so. They make you feel welcome & go out of their way to ensure you have a comfortable, enjoyable stay. Wish we'd stayed at Horizon for the whole week instead of wasting money on an inferior Hotel in Fira.

You couldn’t ask for more!
A grear hotel in an excellent location, just far enough from the town to be quiet and close enough to be convenient. There is some road noise but it is minimal and not noticeable inside at all. The rooms are very clean with effective air conditioning and comfortable beds. Combine this with a very good sized pool with plenty of loungers (with shades) and a fabulous buffet breakfast (I thoroughly recommend the home made fig or kiwi jams), and you get a superb package. George and his family are most welcoming and always helpful too. Thank you for another wonderful stay!

Highly recommended
The hotel’s host was very welcoming and took the time to get to know, and look after, his guests. The hotel itself was well placed, only a 10-15 min walk to the beach and only about 5 mins to the nearest shop. The nightlife is on the beach front so being a little bit out was a benefit to escape the bustle and to see a bit more of Kamari. The hotel was very clean, had a nice pool/bar area, and breakfast was ample. The rooms were also sufficiently sized, and with enough comforts, for two. Kamari itself is fantastic with lots of bars and restaurants. I preferred it for the beachfront alone to Fira and Oia although they too are great for views and architecture; Fira is easily commutable from Kamari. All in all, I’d recommend the destination and the hotel.
