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.

We loved this place, it was quiet and peaceful, away from the crowds and the noise. The view was beautiful aspecially when relaxing and cooling down by or in the pool. Place was clean and welcoming with food items waiting for us when we checked in. It was well apointed with a nice kitchen and fridge stocked with water, fruit, bread, and other items. Service was attentive and welcoming and we were all happy with our stay. Note the walk to town is a little steep at about 15 minutes, so you will get your exercise. There are free shuttles to Ammoudi. Taxi to Oia is pricy relative to the 3 minute drive that it is, we chose to walk and enjoy the open air and the exercise.

Wonderful place! Excellent service!
Santorini is truly magnificent and breathtaking place! This property is a hidden gem and great find and very safe place to stay with young kids (A lot of the places in Santorini are by cliffside which is not ideal for kids). Moreover we had a wonderful welcome and service by the property manager Francesca. We have no words to praise as he received us from airport and had a welcome basket with essentials at the start of our stay. He is very humble person and helped us with rides to Fira and Oia as we didn't rent a car. Property is very spacious and equipped with all the basic necessities. This will be very memorable in our life for a long time and felt like home for 4 days. We have never come across such a nice property manager. This place and Francesca deserved more than 5 stars!!!

The personal touches that Francesco, the concierge provided. From driving us the town and picking us up, to arranging a rental car. Daily service was also very much appreciated by Alexandria. Also having a well equipped kitchen and getting coffee pods to last us the whole week. I would definitely stay there on our next trip to Santorini. Oh and having our own pool was truly a treat!

Amazing family stay!
Family Holiday to Santorini! Couldn’t ask for more friendly helpful hosts Alex and Francesco were amazing, they take pride in their work and nothing is to much trouble. Alex and Francesco are available on WhatsApp throughout your stay. They sent us restaurant recommendations, things to do on the island, and anything we requested. I was a little nervous travelling to Santorini with 3 children as I was always under the impression Santorini was aimed at couples. Katharos Pool Villas is the place to stay and perfect for families. Based at the top of Ammoudi bay (great for swimming in the sea and a little cliff jumping for dad and eldest son). We had hired a car for the week but If staying local in Oia we really wouldn’t of needed it. Alex offered lifts into the town, but again only took 15 minutes to walk to the Caldera. The famous sunset is amazing and can be seen from the Villa. Everywhere is just so picturesque. To add on arrival in our villa was a welcome good and drink hamper which was much appreciated. There is even a smartphone with local SIM card in your room which makes it easier to make restaurant reservations during your stay, my personal phone struggled to connect to local numbers despite area code. Thanks again Hope to return soon.

Excellent stay! Location is 10/10 with incredible views, very quite to be able to relax and distress and about a 10-15 minute walk to Oia with all restaurants and anything else you may need. Alex and his brother went above and beyond to accommodate us during our stay for about a week. They were responsive and anything we needed was answered/brought to us within a matter of minutes! Pool is deep and super warm, rooms are spacious and very clean offering a very comfortable bed plus 2 full bathrooms with a strong hot shower! Highly recommend and would absolutely stay here again!

Property is very beautiful and very clean. We were very warmly welcomed with handfull of inclusive fruits and drinks and food in fridge. It was also very nice to see baby crib to be there for our small one. Cons were that 3 out of 3 times I went to reception desk. There was no one there. Construction work around property made it unpleasing when enjoying pool outside or having breakfast. Also garbage dump station on the way to property is not very pleasing, I know some of these things are outside of owners hands to improve or change. Overall we had a very good time. Thank you!
