Breakfast was fresh with many options. We stayed in room 204, with a beautiful balcony view of the Aegean Sea. Yanni, the front desk manager was wonderful, and very helpful. This was our first time overseas and Aqua Blue definitely made it an amazing vacation!
Lovely stuff that went above and beyond the make the stay so pleasurable! Lovely restaurants along the beach strip and delicious food in the hotel itself!
Beautiful property, great staff, delicious breakfast.
Very relaxing atmosphere, very nice pools, location to the beach was 1 minute walk!
Highy recommend!!!
My stay here was amazing. The property is located right on the beach and it’s super clean and the staff is so friendly and helpful. The nighttime reception man was soooooo amazing!

We have a great experience here , the place is amazing and a short 50yards walk to the beach
Great gym and bar and good food, include the breakfast is great . Great pool and also a kids pool . place is super clean !!!
Fantastic hotel. Great location. Spotlessly clean. Great reception staff, housekeeping staff and waiters. Highly recommended. Perissa is a much better base in my view than fira or oia.

Beautiful hotel, EXCELLENT staff, delicious food from breakfast to dinner. Huge pool, incredible spa services, very comfortable rooms, great AC. Within steps from black sand beach, where they have organized lounge chairs with food and cocktail service. Best place to stay in Santorini. I will definitely be back.

The property was perfectly located in the middle of the pedestrian walk for great restaurants and shops. The beach is beautiful and within steps of the hotel. The grounds are meticulously maintained. The best part of this hotel is the attentive staff. They we’re accommodating beyond what was expected and made me want to return to this hotel again.
Very friendly and supportive staff!
Hotel is very nice and room was really beautiful.
Buffet dinner I don’t recommend because there is only a small choice of food and in the neighborhood a lot of restaurants are located.
Lovely property. As an additional surprise, our room had 2 bathrooms (either that wasn't listed, or we just overlooked).
Beautiful grounds, friendly staff! Would definitely return.
They were so friendly. Everything was so perfect. It wasnt too crowded so always be able find a table or sun lounge The transfer to Fira was very handy to go there and spend evening with great sunset. There were a few restaurants and a bar walking distance from the hotel so if I wanted a lazy night I could walk to and it was just so perfect. I would definitely love to stay there again.
Lovely hotel, right on the beach which has a private area for guests of the hotel. Only downside is there is slippery rocks when entering the sea. Water shoes highly recommended.
Staff are friendly and welcoming and are happy to assist with anything you need.
There are plenty of restaurants around the hotel.
This is a great hotel right on Perrissa Beach. Our room was fantastic. The staff are lovely, every single one of them! The hotel is spotlessly clean. Plenty of choice for breakfast. Two pools with lots of space around them. Would happily stay again. Bus stops just a short stroll away providing regular easy access to all areas of the island including Fira, Oia and Kamari beach. Very pleased that we chose here for our week on Santorini.
Great stay at the Aqua Blue Hotel. Excellent location steps away from the sea, restaurants and shopping! Clean spacious rooms, excellent breakfast, great walking area besides the Aegean Sea! Front desk staff were great and easy to communicate with prior to our stay and very attentive during our stay. Beach chairs included & beach service for snacks and drinks. About 45 min away from Oia, , 20 min from Fira, 20 minutes from Akrotiri Lighthouse, we rented a car for 60 Euro a day from a rental service hotel provided for us, it was the best decision we made. We were able to drive around the entire island, parking easy everywhere we went! We experienced all of Santorini and not just Oia which was the best experience. It doesn’t have the views of Oia but the sea view and access to the Aegean and swimming besides a gorgeous mountain outside the hotel was unmatched. Highly recommend Perissa Beach as top destination in Santorini.
From start to finish, Aqua Blue was noticably the best hotel among the strip of hotels with direct beach access. Very clean and the staff was very helpful and gracious with any request.
Only things that they don't really tell you about is that all of the windows need to be closed to get the air conditioning to work.
Also, the Wi-Fi is free but is extremely weak and most times, you cannot connect to it unless you are in the lobby area. If you're in your room, forget it.
Other than that, the beach service and servers were very pleasant, the beach area itself was extremely clean as well.
If/when we come back to Santorini, we will most definitely be looking to stay here again.
The hotel was perfect! And the location is amazing as it isn’t as busy as the rest of Santorini. The room was great, modern looking and patio was right by the pool. Cleaners came every day and there was also an option to have bedding changed everyday. The pool was big and loads of sun beds. Also got free sun beds on the beach which was right infront of the hotel. As Muslims we were worried about what food we could have but there was loads of options for breakfast and there was a restaurant next to the hotel called Pergola which told us they did halal food. The staff were great, they helped us with all of our trips and helped arranged some flowers and decorations which my partner asked for. Hotel was very quiet at night time and couldn’t hear anything from our room. Would definitely stay here again if we ever came back to Santorini. Would definitely recommend staying here, best hotel we’ve stayed at!!!! Our flight wasn’t till 9pm and we had to leave our room at 11.30am but they let us stay at the hotel and use their facilities and they looked after our suitcases. 11.30am was the perfect time to leave the room it wasn’t too early and gave us enough time to prepare have breakfast and double check we had everything. Lastly, they help you with any activities, atv/buggies/car rentals with reasonable prices rather than finding our own at more of a price, and they will direct you to the best places to visit in Santorini .10/10 for Aqua Blue Hotel!
