Good and clean villa
Good accomodation with all facilities in the villa. Near to good restaurants and shops. Walk to Fira only 15 mins. It does have a small swimming pool (its really small but helps to cool down).

This property was a great budget option for Santorini and it had a little pool and nice outdoor area. However the host oddly asked us for the one Euro city tax as soon as she saw us and when I tried to relax in the very nice area near her house she came out of her house and sat at the next table. The poor maid seemed to be cleaning the place from dawn to dusk, really from 8 until 3, and there were only ten rooms, The owner seemed to show too much interest in where we were going and when we would be back. She did arrange for a taxi back for us. Just felt watched.

It’s great 4 nights with villa pavlina, she did a great service for us, pavlina and her husband doing a great place, room is comfortable and they do clean and change the sheets everyday . Pool is bit tiny but it’s added a value for the price we paid. Also she let us to leave the bags after we check-out, till we go to the airport. Definitely stay with her again

Nice staff but disappointing location
The service was amazing the staff was very helpful even though there was minimal staff. The location though was not my favorite. It felt very rundown, ghetto and unsafe. I never went out at night. Although one plus to the location was that there was a laundromat and a cheap gyro place across the street once you got out of your complex. Overall the stay was nice but if I go back to Santorini I would only stay in Oia.

This was a terrific stay for me, and my favorite place I stayed at in Greece. I also booked two 3-star places in Athens and Heraklion during my trip, and Villa Pavlina was a better experience than those two recent hotels. The room I stayed at had a more modern furniture and bathroom than the photos show here. The shower was a really nice step-in shower that made me feel like I was really on vacation. Everything was very clean, and the hotel staff were all very nice. It's a family place, and they even did me a small favor printing my boarding pass free of charge. The location was better than I expected -- I originally wanted to stay in Fira but those hotels were a lot more expensive and didn't look very nice. But this hotel is about 5 minutes from the bus stop which goes straight to the airport, and I was dropped there from the ferry port too. The only thing I had to go to Fira for is the bus to Oia, and Fira was about a 20 minute walk. The only minor things that were confusing to me, was my bed didn't have a comforter (but maybe because it was a hot summer), and I had trouble figuring out the entrance. But I did love that they dried the sheets in the sun, so they smelled of the sunshine and ocean. And they have a nice pool and lounge area outside. Finally, the hotel staff were very accessible using the Orbitz messenger and wrote back very quickly. This would be my first choice to stay at if I were to visit Santorini again, and I wish I could have stayed an extra few days.

Villa Pavlina Santorini
The stay was terrible I asked for two beds and to be changed from the room before entering , she didn’t want to change us. Small room and can not fit two people in there. Tiny as as they, they have ia cuboard on top of the mini bar empty no water nothing, extreamly hot weather and we where told there are two supermarkets in the area and we can buy from there. I’m discussed. The room stunk of suruge and still didn’t want to change room for us the service was terrible. I will be notifying other places about this place I paid my taxes for the place of stay and I had to pay tax again cash in hand. Disappointed! Do not recommend this place at all pick another place.

Thank you for choosing Villa Pavlina for your stay! Your reservation didn't include your preference for 2 single beds so we didn't know that. When you finally arrived we added an extra bed to your room to service you when you said this to us. When a client arrives at our hotel we always explain everything about the area of our hotel and generally about Santorini. Every day we changed your towels and your bed sheets because they needed to be changed. In the evening while you were at the swimming pool you heard music too loud and at nights after 12 you made noise and other clients referred this to us but I didn't say anything. Every client has to pay 0,50 euros extra per day because of a tax for the greek government and this is not included in the price of your reservation. This applies to all hotels based on the greek law. If you don't believe us you can ask the office you made the reservation.

Filthy and terrible staff
I arrived at 11pm exhausted and just wanted to check in shower and go to bed. I waited 20min as he was serving another couple and there was an issue with their booking as the hotel was over booked and had no room for them. When I finally got to check in my room was filthy and not cleaned. Sheets pulled up and not changed. towels rolled up and not changed they smelled (couldn’t believe it myself), hair and dirt everywhere, something sticky on both bedside tables. shampoo and body wash half used, toilet roll wrinkled due to being wet. The location, room and hotel itself is nice and if it was clean I would give 5 stars but unfortunately that’s not so. What’s worse is I complained and receptionist was rude and unhelpful telling me it was clean. He reluctantly gave me products and linen so I had to clean the room myself as there was no one else at that time (just terrible). He was not apologetic at all. I then spoke to the manager about it three days after who was just as rude and denied the room wasn’t cleaned and called me a liar, totally unapologetic. I didn’t want anything but an apology and I didn’t even get that. Terrible service, very dirty? Wouldn’t stay again. I have travelled the world and have never had this issue, this was the dirtiest room I’ve had but what’s worse is the terrible service and attitude of staff

Great place to stay, 15-20 min walk to Fira tho
Overall it was a great place to stay. Finding it was a little challenging for me, as it’s off the main road and down a few winding walkways. But once I located the entrance, it was no problem and check-in went smoothly. Daily cleaning service in the morning was great, and not what I’ve grown accustom to traveling throughout the rest of Greece. The room has a wall mounted AC unit that worked great—the hot July temps were not an issue. My room had two single beds side-by-side, so just be aware of that if you are expecting one bed that can fit two people. Other rooms could be different though. It worked fine for me since I was traveling solo. The internet was decent (comparatively for Greece), but don’t expect to be able to do any serious computing, however, it’s more than adequate for email and checking finances, etc. Also, make sure you know where it is in relation to the bus station. There is a bus “stop” nearby that can drop you off, but the main bus station in Fira is about a 15 min walk away. Driving took me 3-5 mins to get to Fira. There is a nice Greek gyro place right across from the hotel, which is open till about midnight for late night eats. Also, a laundry service across the street was clutch, and will do your laundry the same day for about 10-12 euro.

This hotel is a small, family run business. The owner let us check in to our room very early after arriving on a 6am flight. The pool area is small, but very nice and the hotel is quite clean. If you don't know where you are going, it can be hard to find. Make sure to turn at the breakfast restaurant "Jerry's" and then look for small signs that will wind you around another building. The hotel is right next to a church. It is a good 20 min walk to Fira, but only a 5 min walk to the bus stop. The owner let us store our luggage on the day we left as well.

Nice quite place.
Villa pavlina is a nice simple place. It is a bit hidden from the main road but quite safe and close to lots of facilities such us restaurants, bakery, supermarkets, travel agency to rent car or scooter. Less then 10 min by motorbike from thira.The room were quite simple and very clean with a TV nice small balcony and air-conditioning. Some bad score are for The wifI, didn't work very well in the room and the bed was not really comfortable, if you have back problem think about it. Is close to a church so the bell woke us up at 7 am but only once in 7 days!!Anyway considering how much does it cost I would definitely recommend it. The host was nice, she gave us a ride to the airport too!
