Mar n Mar Crown Hotel-Suites

We stayed at the mar n mar for 4 nights on 22-26th May. We had never been to Santorini before and were so excited. HOTEL - The hotel on first glance doesn't look like much from the roadside but once inside, it is gorgeous! Everywhere was spotless and its tastefully decorated. Everybody met us with a smile and there was an older man who dealt with our cases for us. We were given a double room on the second floor of the hotel which was lovely, quite small but as we weren't planning a lot of time in it, it didn't bother us but had a huge balcony which made up for the small interior. We realised straight away that the air con wasn't working so later that day when going out for dinner we asked could they look at it whilst we were out. On our return, the hotel manager said it couldn't be fixed and they would have to change our room. On the plus side, they then upgraded us to a suite with a Jacuzzi which made our holiday! The Jacuzzi was such a nice end to each day of sightseeing and if you can afford it, I would fully recommend it. The pool was lovely and the bar fully stocked. Rooms were cleaned daily and the reception staff were amazing Always smiling and friendly. Both Tara and Nicolette were lovely. We also LOVED the life size chess board. We only played once but it was great fun and added a bit of quirkyness. LOCATION - The hotel is really well located but it helps that Santorini is very easy to get around. We rented a buggy for a day through the hotel and that was the best way to see the island. The hotel is 5 mins walk away from the beach where there are so many bars and restaurants to choose from but we also ate one night at Danas Taverna next to the hotel which was gorgeous. There is a bus service that goes from Kamari (10 min walk form hotel) for 2 euros each which takes you to Fira and then from there you can do the same again to Oia. Breakfast - Breakfast was fantastic. Always loads to choose from and a great range of cooked and European options. Try the vine leaves, they were lush! The man who services the breakfast was also lovely. We didn't get his name but couldn't do enough for you. On the whole, we couldn't recommend this holiday or hotel enough! Defintely worth a visit!

Excellent hotel,with lovely polite staff who can’t do enough for you Pool was cold but you except that at this time of year Room very comfortable and cleaned every day Lots of restaurants and bars around which are very good Would certainly recommend this hotel

Our room was immaculately clean. The bedroom staff are fantastic, and do a great job in searing heat. Towel rail in bathroom was ridiculously high - around 6foot from the floor! Nowhere to hang a bathrobe or anything else without it draping in the sink! I found the Reception staff to be surly, not the friendly Greek reception I had anticipated. We were not lucky enough to have a terrace on our Junior Suite only a small balcony. Our Suite overlooked the road up to the Thira ruins. The gem of our stay was the lovely Nicos, he greeted us in the early hours on our arrival after our flight was delayed and was there every breakfast time with a smile and a word, and very efficient - maybe he should work on Reception as his smile was more friendly than the young lady who could barely look up to acknowledge us when we walked through the door during the day or the afternoon/evening gentleman who was often engrossed in his laptop when we approached. It was always us that said hello first to either of them. There was no local information available in the room or on Reception regarding local buses etc. We had been there 3 days before I realised you could get food during the day! The pool area was immaculate and there was plenty of space available. Drinks at the poolside bar are very measured - a small bottle of Coca Cola is opened for your mixer, but then you are only given half! The location suited us perfectly, very near to some fantastic restaurants, and just far enough away from the very busy area. I was so looking forward to our stay and overall the area was good for us. I was just left a little bit wanting in my experience at the hotel.

Not a good experience from the start . We checked in in the middle of the night and shown to our room which was up many stairs. We soon discovered that this room didn’t have a whirlpool which I had paid for . I went to reception and they said they would sort it out in the morning with a upgrade to a room with a whirlpool . I said again to the man it is not a upgrade it is what I paid for . I went to reception again in the morning and was told they would have to talk to the boss about getting me a upgrade to a room with a whirlpool and garden view . I showed the women my booking sheet with the words garden view room with a whirlpool. I was then told to go back later in the day. So later in the day we went back to reception and they give us another room with a whirlpool which was all cracked with paint and holes on the inside . The Wi-Fi didn’t work the tv didn’t work . The cleaner missed our room twice . The room could do with a fresh coat of paint. And for how much I paid for the room you was only allowed two small bottles of water in the fridge on the first day.then after that get your own . The breakfast was just eatable . There was Lots of fruit but the eggs and bacon was of poor quality. I enjoyed kamari but would not stay in this hotel again.. the trip was a special treat for my partners 50th which was totally ruined . I emailed the hotel a week before we went to ask if I could pay for a bottle of bubbly to the room on her birthday . And I asked at reception too. And the day after her birthday there was a bottle appeared In The room. Total disaster.

Fantastic stay! The hotel was beautiful, modern and very clean. It exceeded our expectations, it definitely looks better in person which was a bonus. We had our own private hut tub and sunbathing area within our balcony. The staff were friendly and helpful & a great breakfast was available every morning. The pool area and bar also brilliant! Definitely recommend and will return if visiting Santorini again

We were fortunate to have a pool side room, and this definitely ensured that our week here was just amazing. The room itself was perfect, as was the bathroom, with clean fluffy towels, both for the room and the pool which were changed daily. We were also super impressed by the daily cleaning of the room. The staff, well I can't thank you enough, everything from check in, breakfast, information and tour booking was done fantastically well. I researched the location before I booked, and I wasn't disappointed, on a quiet road which only leads up to Ancient Thera (very much worth a visit), and no more than 10 min walk to the amazing beach, and beach bar, our fave way to spend a few hours in the afternoon. You can actually get a great sunrise from the pool. Although a tour of the island is fabulous, you have to make the effort to go up the path to the "Spring of Zoodochos Pigi", an ancient spring in a cave, with a chapel, a most serene moment. The road to the beach has a more classic Greek feel about it, we didn't really venture further into the town, staying in our own bubble between the hotel and beach bar. Taverna Danas (Next door), and Honey and Thyme were our favourite's, we felt disappointed and taken advantage of by The Olive Oil (Not on Google maps surprisingly). We hope you enjoy as much as we did 😍

We had an amazing week at The Mar n Mar, we couldn’t fault anything. Room Our room was large and had a sea view and was up a flight of stairs. It was spotless and remained so with our lovely cleaner coming daily. The air conditioning was a godsend. The bathroom was clean, the shower big and there was a plentiful supply of toiletries, toothbrushes and razors were also included. Pool The pool was perfect with a comfortable set of loungers. The number of people varied but we always had somewhere comfortable to sit. The pool was gloriously cool on a hot day: Breakfast Simply sumptuous. There was a lot of choice a pastries, cheeses/meat, fruit, local delicacies, the most amazing Greek yoghurt. Staff What made our stay so relaxed and happy is the staff at the hotel - from our welcome late in the evening by Sortiri and sorting out our room, to Claudia on reception who would take time to chat, the chef at breakfast being attentive and efficient. The barman making us delicious mocktails. The staff were amazing and friendly and incredibly hard working. Location The hotel is at the foot of the mountain, tucked away. It is a short walk to the front and dozens of places to eat and drink. We can recommend the restaurant next door to the hotel for great Stifado and Gyros, Soul for relaxed drinks, Blend for a great vibe and service and Sky Lounge bar. Kamari is a great location for a relaxed holiday and the Mar n Mar Hotel is the perfect place to stay.

We had a wonderful stay here! Staff extremely attentive, helpful and hardworking. Claudia was exceptional, going above and beyond. Breakfast is varied and tasty, the rooms and clean and comfortable with excellent air con (very important!) Good location, right by some restaurants and a shop then only 5 minutes to the beach and the whole ***** of further bars and restaurants. Highly recommend.

We have just returned from a 10 day stay at the Mar n Mar Crown Suites hotel in Kamari. The hotel is in a lovely location, just a short walk to the beach, bars and restaurants. We had a room with sea view. Towels were changed each day and room cleaned. The staff were really friendly and helpful. We enjoyed talking to the hotel Receptionist every day. She was very helpful polite. Our thanks also to the restaurant staff who were in charge of the breakfast. The food was really nice and there was a good variety to suit all tastes. We loved the pool area where you could bathe in sun or shade and purchase drinks from the pool bar. It was a very relaxed area. Thankyou to all the staff who made us welcome. A really lovely hotel to stay in.
