Great hotel and service
Hotel is located in Akrotiri, a quiet village in Santorini, easy to get around by bus or car. The hosts were wonderful and made sure that we had everything we needed to make our stay perfect. Room was large which was nice for my family of 4. Would definitely stay here again when we return to Santorini.

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is located in the small village Akrotiri, very quiet and calm. The main tourist attractions are a short drive away (the red beach is even a walking distance for the experienced hikers), only Oia is a bit far (40 minutes drive). The staff is very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and tidy, there's a small refrigirator which is a plus. The hotel is accesible by car (not all the village is accesible, there's one "main" road) We had a great stay. The only minor issue we encountered was occasional loss of Wi-Fi signal which didn't really have any effect on our overall exprience Highly recommended for those who seek peace and quiet over proximity to the touristic "center"

Excellent stay. No free shuttle as advertised.
We had a fabulous time at Thira's Dolphin. The host couple are very sweet and friendly. The breakfast was fabulous, and the pool was a wonderful treat. The hotel is located in an old town so you really feel like you get a culture experience. There are a few nice restaurants and a supermarket a short walk away. The area itself is quite hilly. There is a decent bus service to get to Oia which was quite affordable and easy to use (however service is more sparse in the evening after the Oia sunset). Close(ish) to the hotel is an ancient town of Akrotiri which is definitely worth a visit, and close by is one of the beaches. We walked it and were glad we did, but the hill back was horrible. Another issue was on our booking it says there is a free shuttle from the ferry port. Well this is NOT the case, and it was a very expensive taxi or shuttle instead. We did discover later that the local bus goes there too, but without the knowledge it would be difficult to navigate. Overall we absolutely loved our stay.

The family that runs this property is very keen to help the guests in any way, provided a map and bus timetable at arrival to help us get around the island as we didn’t plan to get a car. Lovely variety of breakfast options to set you up for the rest of the day. They are always smiling, welcoming warm and calm. Village shops are one minute away and Portobello restaurant was our favourite for quality and service with a smile. Even the cleaning lady at the property always said her good morning with a smile! If you want to escape the crazy prices of Thira and Oia this location is perfect. We just loved it and left a tip.

I liked the quiet location and that the entire island was easily accessible from there. Clean towels were provided daily, breakfast was plentiful and the owners were very friendly. They went beyond what was required of them and helped eliminate the stress of getting around and departure time. There was four of us and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thanks Dominica!
