Vedema, a Luxury Collection Resort, Santorini

처음에 배정받았던 방은 축사가 근처에 있었어서 냄새가 좀 났었는데 다행히 다음날 방을 바꿔주셨어요. 작은 마을에 위치해있어서 렌트카는 필수에요. 가성비 좋고 옛날 고즈넉한 산토리니의 모습을 느끼기 제격인 호텔입니다!

ロケーションが良く、お部屋も清潔で広かったです。 プールサイドで食べる朝食がとっても美味しかったです。また機会があれば泊まりたいです！

No views, remote location, lots of stairs, poor ac and it’s very hot in June, gaps in doors and windows for ac to escape, poor internet connection, food was ok but took over 45 mins to get it because 1 oven broke, forgot our drinks, 30 euros one way to get to bigger villages. Do NOT stay here. It’s not “Luxury” and Marriott should be ashamed.

I’ll start with the good stuff. The staff are amazing and the service from them was outstanding. Both pools are well maintained and a reasonable temperature. Every drink was delicious and the ingredients in the food were fresh. They looked after my daughter very well and when I got sun burnt they got me some after sun flamigel. The wine list and cocktail list are good. Now for the bad stuff. The room (technically a suite and not cheap). We got given room 204 (the key was marked as T4). It was the furthest from the reception. Don’t expect a good sleep if you stay in this suite as there is a road that runs in front of the room and you will get woken by vehicles. There is a car park about 15/20 metres to one side of the room and a building site in the opposite direction and although no work was being done during our stay it didn’t make for a beautiful view. To get to the reception from our room it was quicker to walk outside the hotel and down the hill than to walk through the hotel. Inside the room, the air conditioning makes a lot of noise. The toilet seat was broken. The wooden blinds let the morning light in (which shined directly in my eyes). The rooms are not big. We ate at Trataro, Alati and Pergola Pool Restaurant. The best being the breakfast at Pergola Pool Restaurant as it came hot, quickly and was a good quality. I was not a fan of the food at Alati although it was creative. The food took a long time at Trataro and when served was not hot and I ordered the seafood pasta which came with bits of broken shell in so left most of it. The value for money at Alati and Trataro are not good so if you are thinking of eating I suggest heading out of the hotel to any of the local restaurants as the prices are far less. We asked the hotel to organise horse riding and it seems the day staff and the night staff don’t communicate as this was ignored by the day staff and only when I came back to see the original lady I asked did it get organised but because it had been ignored there was no availability for the local (nearest) place and I had to use a different company which cost an additional 50 euros (the cost of the taxi to and from). The taxi would only take cash which created an additional problem of finding cash (I would have expected the hotel to have paid this bill as they didn’t do as requested originally).

We stayed there in September 2024 — excellent hotel - the food was very good, the suite was superb and the service was brilliant! We took the Aegean Suite and jt was beautiful - in fact, the entire hotel was really good - as far as service is concerned, i have not seen better service in any other hotel in Europe for a very long time — all the staff - whether it was the concierge, the reception staff, the cleaners, the people at the restaurant — all of them — professional, cordial, attentive - very good. Thank you to all the people in the hotel - please keep up the brilliant work that you guys are doing!

We have just returned from a 10 day stay and overall it was quite a pleasant stay. Definitely not luxury though. We stayed in Suite Y1. Having stayed in some very beautiful hotels there are definitely improvements that could be made. Firstly, the room cleaning team need to sort things out. They come and clean your room and make the bed and you return to find it all clean and tidy. However, they take the dirty cups and glasses and don't replace them until another member of staff comes later in the day to replace them. Then someone else comes to replenish the coffee, tea, water etc. Another member of staff then later comes to bring a complimentary sweet or snack. We are the couple who has breakfast, goes to the pool and then later we return to our room after lunch to sit on the terrace or have a siesta but we were constantly interrupted with staff. One day I was on the terrace and my husband had gone to sleep. The cup and glass man came and had to leave everything on the table. Why can't the room be cleaned and serviced all at the same time? We also had a gate that led to the next door's terrace and on our first day the staff used our terrace to walk through to next door. We had to complain in the end as we never knew when someone was going to walk past our open doors and windows. It did, thankfully stop. There also was no information in the room giving trip suggestions or advice on the local area. Yes, there was a hotel TV info but this did not include any of this kind of information. There is very little entertainment within the hotel. We only encountered one lady performing during our 10 day stay and didn't even know she was going to be there! Where is the communication? I understand people go here for a peaceful holiday but a little light entertainment would go down well. There are 2 pools, only one with a bar. Why not have bars at both? The staff will come and ask you of you need anything but only when you can catch their eye. On the plus. The staff are very nice and helpful. In particular we would like to praise Lina and Michael working by the pool bar. They were amazing and so helpful. Also Michael at breakfast was so nice and friendly and always had time. The village square has 3 nice restaurants. Our favourite was Olio's and their staff were fantastic. Penelope, George, John and Panos. All incredible. Also the Reki bar next door. The taverna just down the hill from the hotel is great. Good value for money but gets busy at around 7.30 to 8. We loved a trip across the island that we booked in Fira. Great value at 200 Euros. If you want the sunset don't go to Oia. Way too crowded. Go to Franco's bar in Pyrgos, a short taxi ride from the hotel. It's a climb but thoroughly worth it and way better than the scrum in Oia.

Tucked away really away from FIRA so each ride will cost you 35 Euros to town. Also, no one seems to know where the bus stop is. Got different answers including never took one. Guest service is poor. Breakfast and room cleaning service great. Overall find something else as this is NOT a luxury resort.

Just got back from an eight-day stay at this superior hotel. If you are looking for quiet elegance, discreet,courteous and professional staff, this is the place for you. The people here go way beyond the call to make you feel comfortable and pampered. Everyone from reception, to the wait staff, housekeeping and maintenance crew were unbelievably gracious. Set in the middle of a small, quaint village full of charm and romance, two things are recommended for sure: a sunset catamaran cruise (the famous sunset will take your breath away and also, if you can, get an upgrade to a villa. The private pool along with the amenities and fantastic service are well worth it. Opa!

Vedema Hotel – A Luxurious Escape in a Traditional Greek Village Setting The Vedema Hotel is far more than just a place to stay; it's an immersive experience that feels like living in a charming, traditional Greek village. Each room is housed in its own unique building, offering guests a sense of privacy and tranquility that is hard to find elsewhere. We were fortunate enough to stay in a villa with its own private pool, which added an extra layer of luxury to our stay. The general pools throughout the hotel are equally impressive, with comfortable sun loungers that invite you to relax and soak in the serene atmosphere. However, the true star of the Vedema Hotel is its staff. Every member of the team is amazing—friendly, courteous, and genuinely dedicated to making your stay as enjoyable as possible. Their warmth and attentiveness create a welcoming environment that enhances the entire experience. Special recognition must be given to the manager, who clearly runs a tight ship. The hotel operates seamlessly, and the high standard of service is a testament to their excellent leadership. In summary, the Vedema Hotel offers a perfect blend of luxury, tradition, and outstanding service. Whether you're lounging by your private pool or exploring the beautifully maintained grounds, you're sure to feel pampered and well cared for. This hotel is a true gem, and we can’t recommend it highly enough.
