"Excellent property owned by a lovely friendly family. Location is superb, withing easy walking distance (2 mins) of the beach, taverna, shops, bus stop etc. Spotlessly clean with maid service everyday. Always beds & seats around the pool. Couldn't have asked for anything more."
"We LOVED that we were right on the beach, walking out of the hotel to lounge in the sun was exactly what we wanted in our trip. Very relaxing with tons of shops and food options near by. "
"Lovely accommodating staff. Walkable to the beach. 10/10 pool area with comfy sun loungers and a great bar. Very good value for money. Thanks for a wonderful stay "
"We had a really pleasant stay at Exi. The owner was really nice and sweet. The rooms were comfortable with clean furnitures. Toiletries were provided and the location is superb with really nice restaurants around. The bus stop is also just 3 minutes away on foot with direct trips to Fira. Highly recommended stay at Perissa. "
"Super nice hotel, simple, clean, cozy, and very calm, with friendly staff. Always spotless, and the location is great: not too far, not too close to the beach, perfect if you’re looking for a quieter place to relax. Highly recommend!

"I want to thank again the senior couple I guess they are the owners of this property, they being excellent hosts, very welcoming and very nice and sweet with us! The room was cozy and very clean with a little balcony as well, 2 mins walking to a market, around 5 mins walking to the Perissa beach and the bus stop to Fira and other locations. Plenty of restaurants near the beach. Super safe and a very chill area to have a relaxin holiday."
"A really lovely hotel with very friendly staff. Just a short walk from the beach but in a nice quiet spot, the best of both worlds. Would definitely stay again. "

10/10 Excellent
"
I had the delight of staying at this wonderful beachfront hotel with my family.
I booked two beachfront rooms that were next to the pool that backs onto to the beach where the hotel has its own sunbeds. Basically, in all my years of travelling, I cannot recall my room being so close to the beach. The rooms themselves were of a decent standard but basic compared to other 5 star hotels that I've stayed.
During my stay, I noted that the 1st floor beachfront rooms had superior views of the sea and beach and requested to move to one of them when available- the friendly hotel staff kindly obliged. I must say that this absolutely sealed the wonderful stay.
The hotel itself resembles a quaint Greek village in its style- it really made a great impression on me.
The hotel's location is perfect. It's at the end of the vibrant and friendly Kamari beachfront that has plenty of good restaurants that are reasonably priced. I found the hotel and Kamari beach to be a great retreat away from the busy crowded towns of Fira and Oia.
And finally, I must compliment the hotel staff- amazing! They were helpful prior to and during my stay. Very courteous and helpful. I can't thank them enough for helping locate and keep safe important documents that I misplaced. Brilliant team!"
"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. Lovely staff who were always happy to help. Beach access was great and easy to order from the restaurant to your sun lounger."
"Our family of eight, including 3 kids, enjoyed our stay very much! Great location, walking distance to the beach, restaurants, shopping, bus transfers, etc. Rooms were clean and spacious and all decorated differently, for a boutique feel. They were cleaned every day and stocked with fresh towels. We had a few minor issues (power breaker trip, some ants) which were addressed promptly by the staff. All the staff were friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed the breakfast. Many different options, including Greek and American items. We did not get a chance to visit the pool, but it looked clean with plenty of seating options. Overall, this hotel was great for our family and offered great value. "
"Nice size rooms. Excellent breakfast options.
Lovely reception staff.
Pool ok but sun gone by 17.30 because of location.
