Our recent stay at the hotel was an enjoyable experience overall. The staff were exceptionally friendly and always willing to assist, making us feel very welcome throughout our stay. The breakfast was delightful, offering a good variety of options, and the views from the property were truly breathtaking. We also had the opportunity to try the lunch service, which exceeded our expectations in both quality and presentation. Although we encountered a minor issue with the bathroom, the team was quick to respond and made every effort to resolve it as soon as possible. Their attentiveness was much appreciated. Despite the small hiccup, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would be more than happy to return in the future.

We had such a fantastic stay here! It's such a relaxing location & hotel. Its beautifully decorated and staff are really kind, friendly and helpful. We loved how close the room was to the pool (we were room B). Great having pool towels provided & even bath robes & slippers in your room. Breakfast was amazing and you can sit over looking the sea while you eat. We booked a catamaran cruise up to Oia to swim / snorkel in the sea and watch the sunset. Reception were really helpful in organising this for us & even walked us to the meeting point. The perfect place for a relaxing holiday!

Let me start off by saying that I haven’t been this relaxed in years! Yes Thira is absolutely gorgeous but we all know that. What made our stay truly special was Santorini Crystal Blue and its team! Starting with Renata. She was very welcoming and attentive throughout our stay. Vasilis is a life saver! He did me a huge favor and was able to add the finishing touches to my proposal (she said yes!). Antonio and his son served us great food all throughout our stay. And last but not least, Dimitri made us feel right at home and also served us great drinks! The hotel is in a beautiful location on Kamari beach next to a beautiful mountain. The ocean was really refreshing. I can go on and on. I highly recommend this hotel. We WILL come back one day. Sooner rather than later, but hopefully with a family of 5!

I recently stayed at the Santorini Crystal Blue Hotel, drawn in by its impressive rating of 10 points. However, I was surprised by the condition of the hotel, which I would rate around a 6 or 7. The hotel is quite old and not well maintained. The furniture felt cheap and dated, which impacted our overall comfort. Additionally, we experienced plumbing issues in the bathroom, which was disappointing. The breakfast offered limited choices, although the quality of the food was good. On a positive note, the beach was beautiful, and having dedicated sunbeds for guests was a great perk. The team at the hotel was truly commendable; they did everything possible to support us and ensure we had a pleasant stay. Overall, while the beach and the dedicated staff were highlights, the condition of the property did not meet our expectations based on its rating. I hope management considers improvements to enhance the guest experience.

An amazing property located right on the beautiful Kamari beach. A very friendly and accommodating staff that felt like an extended family while we stayed there. Food at this hotel was really good, which they also conveniently serve on the beach. Outside of the hotel, there’s a ton of nice restaurants and food options, but our favorite restaurant on the strip was Almira restaurant. We really enjoyed our stay at Crystal Blue and overall experience on Kamari beach, which IMO is the nicest beach on the island. I would highly recommend this hotel!
