Do not stay at this property!!! OWNER is no where to be found did not return my calls bugs everywhere!! Did not sleep up till 4 am had a early flight!! It’s a shame ruined our trip in Greece. All over floor, found dead bugs in bed, in sheets, and by the door. Big piles around floor. It is not what it looks like. Girl who checked us in was nice. Other than that STAY AWAY. Got not even 50$ back. A shame. Save ur money and it’s isolated.

Margarita and her team are extremely friendly and helpful. The accommodation is very clean and comfortable, air conditioning was very much appreciated. The Margarenia is situated close to supermarkets local amenities and a 10 minute walk to the beach, other restaurants and bars. I would thoroughly recommend.

Margerenia was a lovely hotel, the flowers were in full colour. The pool was clean. The rooms despite being minimalistic due to Covid 19 were pretty and cleaning standard was excellent. From contact before, the care throughout the stay right until home time we couldn’t of asked for better. We were signposted to some amazing sights so was really able to make the most of our time on the island. Margerita who manages the day to day running of the hotel was a diamond, even keeping an eye on me when I was taken unwell. Sending friends and relatives there and we will be returning.

Really lovely hotel
Our stay was really lovely, the hotel is really clean and welcoming, the staff are amazingly kind and helpful, you are close to shops and beach, the bus stop is also only a few minutes walk from the hotel, so is the car rental place with very reasonable prices, the pool area is one of the cleanest I have ever seen, the hotel will help you if you need, we had an amazing time staying there and were really sad the day we had to leave, I recommend staying here very highly

Loved the new modern style of the apartment which set this apart from others in the area around a similar price. Very clean upon arrival and a cleaner came daily too. Margarita was an excellent welcoming host and gave us some great advice during the trip on restaurants and travel. My only minor complaint was the pressure in the shower, however plumbing/water is difficult in Santorini so I can’t hold that against the apartment. Highly recommend!

Margarenia is a wonderful hostess and will do everything possible to make your stay perfect. Our studio was really lclean, spacious and very comfortable. We were in room 8 on the first floor with a balcony to both the front and back of the building. Rooms are cleaned daily, towels changed daily and we had everything we needed to make our stay perfect for us. Thank you Margarenia for a wonderful stay.

We stayed here recently for a family wedding. The proprietor was a lovely lady who was extremely helpful and informative. The accommodation was really nice and they cleaned the room and changed the sheets every day and provided pool towels if necessary. Our room was No.15, a traditional curved ceiling room with beautiful views of the mountains and out to the sea. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone who wanted good accommodation and with great hospitality.

Clean, Spacious, Wonderful Staff, Close to Beach!
We spent a really wonderful 8 days in Santorini and it was made even better by the wonderful ladies at Margarenia Studios. On arrival, they were so welcoming and helpful. They give you a map of the island and recommend places to eat (which were all excellent - in particular Ta Dictia and The Good Heart). There is a Big Coop mini supermarket and bakery on the same road, which is excellent for buying breakfast supplies which you can store in the fridge in the room. The kitchen utensils are great - a hob, frying pan etc... The beach is a 5-10 minute walk from the studios (I would say the best beach on the island) and you are able to get free sunbeds at Filippos if you stay at Margarenia Studios, which we made good use of! The staff at Filippos are also extremely kind and welcoming. The rooms are cleaned daily and it's spotless! Great bathroom, very spacious and comfortable. The air con is great, but not always needed and there are NO mosquitos around. The swimming pool is excellent - huge pool, great view and perfect for relaxing after a day of walking. The studios are located right next to a local bus stop which is IDEAL. I would recommend you hire a car for your stay, but if not, having the bus stop on the doorstep is a luxury. Margarita or Flora will print off the bus timetable for you so you don't wait hours for a bus! They are very kind and warm - definitely makes us want to return again soon! Highly recommend.

Comfortable, pleasant stay at Margarenia
We were 100% satisfied with this hotel. The rooms were well equipped with kitchenette and amenities. The place was cleaned every day and was spotless. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We were 10 minutes from the black sand beach where there were many great restaurants offering their beachfront for lounging (the expectation is that you will order a drink or food once you are happily settled into your lounge chair). The rooms were mostly quiet. The pool area was fabulous if you need some downtime from touring the island. There's a lovely bar where you can order beer in frosted glasses, cappuccinos and many other beverages. All in all we had a great stay and would definitely return to this place when we visit Santorini again.

Great holiday
Great place, spotlessly clean, beach about 15 minutes stroll, not sure I would recommend it with young children as their are no pavements. The majority of the good restaurants are at the beach too (there are some a few minutes from the main food shop/bakery but they are very much fast food type greek. Great hotel though, the owner Margarita (petite) is delightful and apologises for her english which is excellent, the other Margarita (who you get information from ) is very good too. Clean swimming pool, varies as to how busy it is at the pool. Because it is so windy in July and August you need to request your brolly be put up as their is a knack to it. All in all a lovely place, the only thing that would make it absolutely perfect was if it was on the beach by all the restaurants as it is a good 15 minutes to a decent restaurant. All the restaurants offer service on the beach with free beds and umbrellas, we did particularly like Fillipos as the food was excellent

Lovely studios suitable for families and couples.
Our studio appartment was lovely and cleaned every day along with fresh linen and towels. The pool is lovely with a child pool as well. There is a poolside bar manned when required. The only negative would be no snacks or food facilities on site and although you have two rings there is no toaster which would be an asset. Overall a fabulous place to stay.

Margarita was an amazing host (as was the other Margarita who greeted us on the first day). Margarita directed us on how to make the best of our short 2 days in Santorini and helped us rent a car (and get it delivered to the hotel) within hours. She shared stories and helped us figure out what was the best way to enjoy the island, while avoiding expensive tourist traps. The rooms were immaculate and extremely large -- there were three balconies! We had a great ocean view from our windows and the terrace. You are a stone's throw from Perissa's black sands beaches, a quick jaunt to two super markets and a 24 hour bakery (yes, 24 hours!) but also on the road to all the best of Santorini. At the same time, you aren't trapped in in the midst of the commericialization directly on the water. It's hard to believe how affordable and beautiful the place was, and how much it made our trip perfect. Thank you so much Margarita (both!) and everyone at Margarenia Studios!

A most enjoyable stay
Our room was spotless with crisp white bed linen and white towels which were changed every day. The staff were friendly and welcoming and most helpful if we needed anything. The hotel overall was very clean with a nice pool and I would have no hesitation in recommending it to any of my friends. The location is within walking distance to supermarkets, bakeries and a 15 walk to the restaurants.Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much.

Location not good and no food or bar at the hotel
We were given a double room with a double bed only, but we had booked a room with one double and one single bed, so had to temporarily stay in another room for one night and then had to move to a 3 single bedded room. The beds were rock hard. It said the hotel was a few minutes walk to the beach, which was actually 20 minutes walk to the nearest beach and 30 minutes walk to Parissa town and beach. The poolside bar was never open and no food available so had to always walk to the beach or town. The roads around the hotel were very dusty and dirty as there were always big industrial lorries going past so not at all pleasant to walk anywhere and horrible to have such a long walk at night.
