Reviews for Donna's House Santorini

Review 1：Pity that no free pick-up and drop-off from/to the ferry or airport is offered for a stay of 3 or more nights. Therefore a rental car is a good option.

Review 2：Mario is a very nice host who gives good tips and information and is always ready for a laugh. Thank you Mario! Beautiful secluded and very relaxing garden to enjoy a nice breakfast. Some more variation would be an improvement though. On the first floor a large balcony around the whole house and thus can be used from all guestrooms on that floor. A small table with 2 chairs on this balcony at every room.

Review 3：you should have a car to feel comfortable there

Review 4：great place for that price, it is located in the centre of island, so it is good base for investigation of the island

Review 5：Would have been nice with a pool.

Review 6：This hotel is different from many of the greek hotels, it feels almost as a french hotel. A bit more decoration in the traditional style. Very comfortable room with everything you need. And the breakfast garden is very nice as is the breakfast. And Mario does his utmost to make you feel at home.

Review 7：Unfortunately there is no pool and you aren't close to the sea. We were only there 2nights so this didn't really bother us and the rest was so nice it made up for it. If you have access issues it is up a slight hill and there are some windy steps (again fine for us but not for everyone)

Review 8：The breakfast was fantastic, Mario on reception was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean, shower was good (not too weak!). Only a minute walk from a lovely restaurant called Cava Alta (go late and get a seat on the terrace but book), also very close to the town square with a couple of cafes and a mini market.

Review 9：This place is like a dream. Rooms are very clean and calm. And there is so beautiful view from the terrace. The breakfasts are served in the small garden and are diverse every day. The staff (Mario) is always very kind and supportive - for sure without him this place wouldn't be the same ;)

Review 10：Mario (the owner) was a welcoming and amazing host. The location of the guesthouse was perfect; in the heart of the quaint, beautiful village of Pyrgos. Breakfast was delicious each morning and we thoroughly enjoyed eating it in the picturesque garden terrace. Rooms were clean and spacious with good airconditioning. We had a fantastic stay and hope to be back soon!

Review 11：We checked in late around 11pm, and our host was still friendly with us though he had wait us for 4 hours. The next day, he gave us suggestions on places we could visit, which is really helpful and good choice.

Review 12：The bed was too hard for my liking

Review 13：Mario the owner cannot do enough for you. Very friendly and helped with quad bike hire and information regarding the island

Review 14：Good location. Great host (Mario is funny and helpful. Very proactive attitude too). Great rooms, comfortable bed, air con working well. Excellent overall!

Review 15：This place is great, we loved the the town and loved our stay. We recommend this place to anyone. We stayed 2 nights in Fira, but we felt like it was a big tourist trap (same with Oia). My wife and I were on our Honeymoon, and the second part of our stay in Santorini was at Donna's, and we couldn't have been more pleased. Mario, the host, did everything he could to make us comfortable, he had an ATV delivered, negotiated a deal for us, and even let us check out a bit later so we could shower before our flight! We cannot say enough nice things about our stay. Beyond that, the town was incredible, we thought it was more beautiful than anywhere else on the island. Sunsets were gorgeous, and the atmosphere was great. We finally felt like we were in Greece and not just another tourist.

Review 16：Pyrgos is the perfect place to stay in Santorini. Close to everything but far enough away from the overwhelming crowds of tourists in Fira and Oia. Donna's House was perfect! The hotel is absolutely lovely and Manolis is fabulous. We would stay there again any time!

Review 17：Mario, the co-manager (I think), was very attentive, always ready to please and an excellent source of information and useful advice. He couldn't have been more helpful, and achieved a good balance of friendliness, service and a very professional manner.

Review 18：No bad experiences to report. The wi-fi was spotty at times, but they were quick to sort it out. Not a big deal with so much beauty to explore.

Review 19：Great location for getting out and exploring Pyrgos and the surrounding areas by foot. The staff was very personable and accommodating. Very welcoming place. They served a nice breakfast with a personal touch. The Good Friday procession through the village is a must to see once in your life. An amazing sight to behold!

Review 20：wi-fi is was not available from room upstairs, but was able to connect downstairs in there lovely courtyard.

Review 21：Staying in Pyrgos village away from the hords of tourist at Donnas House and Mario is the best host ever and with a sense of humor. Our room was very spacious, clean and quiet in a unique village to explore and coffee at Franko's cafe at night is a must.

Review 22：Not much... But the location is not near the port or those famous and crowed villages, and you may need a taxi to go there in the first day... Actually, that makes staying there not too expensive as well. No wifi in the family room but available in the garden

Review 23：Two-floor house with unique decoration inside (the color of walls, the choice of furniture and etc), which gives child a personal room :) Good sleep as it is a quiet place Breakfast in the garden, with nice sun shine and beautiful flowers Friendly people who are willing to give advice on how to travel in Santorini

Review 24：Couldn't pick up wifi from my room but every cafe and restaurant has it so I didn't really care.

Review 25：Mario at the front is kind and great! He is the best! The services they use for scooter/moto rental and car rental are convenient and very well priced. The €5 breakfast was tasty and fresh and the rooms are clean, quiet, safe and situated centrally in the village (within EASY walking distance to cafes, tavernas, the bakery, ATM and the square).I laid in bed and watched the sun rise over the village through my window two mornings in a row and it was magical. I would stay here again!

Review 26：Buses not very regular at the near stop in the village. A bit of a walk to the crossroads for the next bus stop.

Review 27：Friendly receptionist Mario. Good location in Pyrgos. Excellent breakfast. Wonderful room.

Review 28：Nothing. The only thing that it would had make it marvelous, it would be to have fresh orange juice in the breakfast.

Review 29：Everything: location, rooms, staff, amazing homemade breakfast, etc. I would highly recommend it to everyone who would like to stay some peaceful days in Santorini.

Review 30：The bed was not comfortable but comparable to other beds on the Greek Islands. We had to go downstairs to get Wifi connection.

Review 31：Excellent location in Pyrgos, which itself is a sleepy place but close to the action in Fira. Extremely clean and Mario at the front desk was an excellent and helpful host. Not "luxurious" but cozy and clean room with an excellent bathroom. Lots of pressure and hot water. Room was on the second floor where the balcony stretches around the entire building. Breathtaking view and excellent included breakfast. We loved this hotel and would book again.

Review 32：Wi-fi. It didn't work at all in my room upstair.

Review 33：Pyrgos was also beautiful villiage like Fira or Oia, but not crowded at all. So I prefered this place. Also, there was a bus between villiages till midnight, in this summer season, so it doesn't matter. Breakfast was really delicious, containing appetizer, main and dessert. You can also select what you want to drink. The staff was friendly and kind.

Review 34：Quiet and pretty traditional village. Very comfortable family room with attractive furniture, fridge, and balcony. Beautiful garden. Super friendly and helpful host.

Review 35：only the wifi somewhat weak

Review 36：Loved the village- Pyrgos loved the restaurants nearby Mario the manager is the best- always knowledgable, helpful and prepared to go out of his way. Lovely breakfasts in the wonderful courtyard- really we will never forget the lovely atmosphere of this B&B
