We were also very pleased with the 3-5 star accommodations that were all centrally located, safe and clean. I had never heard of Kim Kim before this trip and relied on the reviews of previous travelers before taking the chance. Add my voice to the strong supporters of Kim Kim!

Wow what a trip! This was definitely the trip of a lifetime and Angela made that happen. KimKim has been a godsend planning for a group of 6 people. We had a slight hiccup when we arrived late to our Athens apartment and the place hadn't been cleaned. I messaged Angela and she got back to me right away (it was like 11pm) and fixed the issue by the time we had gone out for a drink and came back. We were all very impressed!

I would say the best part about KimKim was all of the transportation that was set up for us and all of the drivers we had. Our shuttles were ALWAYS on time and the drivers were always upbeat and SO sweet. George, Dimitris, Nikos, all amazing!!!!!! They deserve raises.

Also, every one of our tour guides were the best as well!! We all could not stop raving about every guide we had, professional and you could tell they truly enjoyed what they did, we were very very impressed.

Accommodations were beautiful!!!! The one thing I would maybe suggest is just warning people how many steps there are to get to each villa. Honestly wasn't an issue for us, and getting the most amazing views was 100 percent worth it. But if someone has any issues with stairs, I would probably be good to just get a little warning (80 steps up to our Naxos villa and 160 steps down to our Santorini villa). The price you pay for insane picturesque views!!!!!

Our villa in Naxos was a all around favorite! It was the most beautiful views and an amazing private pool, absolutely incredible.

Anytime we needed Angela she was there and I really really appreciate everything she did for us. Thank you Angela!! I would recommend this to anyone and would definitely book with Kim Kim in the future!! 🤗🤗🤗

Four Streets Athens
Athens

Location, perfect. Layout and space, beautiful. We did have an issue with the cleaning. We arrived very late at night and our apartment hadn't been cleaned. Angela and the building management had someone come to give us fresh sheets and towels for the night and would send someone for a full cleaning the next day. No one showed up the next day. Management was so apologetic and I just think it was a one time issue, but it was really irritating. Not a fault of KimKim at all, I just want people to know. Someone did end up coming our last day and doing a clean.

The only reason I'm giving this 4 stars is because we did not have a car and we were no where near town. Stefanos, the man who worked at the hotel, was nice enough to drive us to the grocery store on our first day. We aren't sure what we would have done if he hadn't driven us. That would be just my one suggestion is to maybe have a plan for the next people on how to get groceries or how to go about getting dinner in town.

We loved this tour and our tour guide. Only issue was the length of the trip. Our ferry was delayed by 30 min, but I think it could have been planned a bit better. It was supposed to be a day trip to Mykonos and by the time we got there we only had 2.5 hrs to see everything. Our guide was incredible, but I would really suggest getting an early morning ferry (ours wasn't until 12:15pm and was delayed until 12:45pm) so that you have substantial time there. That was a bit disappointing. I almost feel like the tour was planned as if we were taking a high speed ferry, but we were not.

Hotel Reviews
18 Grapes Hotel Naxos
Naxos

18 Grapes Hotel in Naxos was our favorite of the four hotels during our Greece trip. This hotel hit all the marks, beautiful property, elegant rooms, quality food, and genuinely friendly and attentive service. Breakfast selections were from a menu and made to order. Eating areas included indoor/outdoor areas. The hotel staff were ALL so accommodating and attentive. They made us feel like we were part of their family. This was the hotel where I felt most relaxed and happy to sit by the pool and enjoy the sun.

Authenticity & Character
The hotel is modern with a Grecian design. The pool and eating areas were very clean and inviting. Sunsets could be viewed from the outdoor cocktail lounge which included an infinity pool.
Location
We could walk to shops, restaurants and the beach.
Staff
The staff is what maked this hotel so enjoyable. When we arrived we were greeted by the hotel owner, and introduced to many of the staff. Throughout our stay we were treated with friendly smiles and attentive service by all staff members.
Cleanliness & Comfort
The hotel is new and the rooms are very clean and comfortable. All of our rooms had private patio areas and partial views of the sea.
Iliovasilema Hotel and Suites
Santorini

The Iliovasilema Hotel in Santroini had beautiful views of the sea with a patio area outside the room to sit and enjoy the views. The hotel is built into the side of the mountainous terrain of Santorini which requires access to the rooms by narrow stairways. The size of the rooms seems to vary considerably. We were assigned an extremely small room.

Authenticity & Character
The hotel provided the authentic views of the sea often expected in Santorini. Breakfast was made to order from a menu and brought to the room. However, the rooms seem to vary considerably at this hotel. We stayed in a very small room which had the bedroom against the rock of the mountain cliff. The back wall of the tiny bedroom was the rough rock face of the mountain cliff. Our travel companions had much bigger rooms and were paying the same price. After the first night, we were moved to a bigger room, but we had to pay extra for the upgrade. Better descriptions of the room layouts would have been helpful.
Location
The location was good because it allowed amazing views of the sea. The hotel was walking distances to other hotels, however the hotel was not walking distance to any shopping areas or restaurants.
Staff
The hotel staff was available when needed. They have to bring (carry) your luggage to the room because of the narrow stairways.
Cleanliness & Comfort
The room was clean and comfortable. Nothing extraordinary considering the extra price for upgrading our room.
Ava Hotel & Suites
Athens

This hotel was very conveniently located in an area that was walking distance to the acropolis, museums, shops, and restaurants. The room we had was a two-room suite with a kitchenette, refrigerator and microwave. This was the largest room we had during our visit to Greece. Breakfast was included and consisted of a wide selection of a la carte food and drinks. Overall, a very pleasant experience.

Our favorite hotel was definitely Homeric Poems in Santorini! Wow. Perfect location for quiet and less busy with an easy walk to Fira. A beautiful walk at that too. Looking back I think we would skip Mykonos and spend more time at Homeric Poems. We also found we enjoyed some of better restaurants as the food was absolutely fantastic! We love good food. Not super fancy but good food!

With that in mind we would definitely consider Crete and maybe revisiting Santorini as our next adventure. Probably spending 2-3 weeks in Crete as we hear it’s worth it. Thank you for making our trip so easy, enjoyable and memorable!

The Electra Metropolis Athens Hotel was fantastic. The room was exactly what we liked, and the location was spectacular. The restaurant overlooks the Acropolis and the Paragon, which was just magical. Absolutely wonderful experience.

Myconian Ambassador
Mykonos

The Myconian Ambassador in Mykonos was a great experience. The people were wonderful, and we loved the spa treatment and the service. Although it was a bit further from the old town, the location was peaceful and quiet, which suited us well. There was plenty to walk around, and we just took a taxi for tours into the old town. The hotel itself was cool and modern.

Avgoustos Suites Naxos had a cool vibe and felt very local. The people running the place were incredible and hospitable. The rooms were beautiful, the bed and showers were amazing, and the breakfast was a delight. We loved the local feel and the connections we made here.

Homeric Poems Santorini was stunning. We spent a good amount of time just sitting on our overlook watching the sunset and the water. Even though there are stairs, it didn’t bother us. The walk along the trail nearby was beautiful and the tours were great. Very hospitable and helpful service.

The transport to and from was disappointing. The transfer was very late picking us up and we had to call to make sure they were still coming. Then when the cruise was over we had to wait at least 45 minutes for the van to pick us up. It seemed like a lot of waiting around and very disorganized.

Hotel Reviews
San Salvatore Monastery
Chania

Perfect location, steps from the water front, restaurants and shops but far enough away to avoid the crowds. There are beautiful beaches were you could rent chairs and receive food and beverage service about 10-15 mins walking distance. Our host Irene was lovely, she made sure we were taken care of and provided a variety of tasty breakfast options that were delivered at our request. The Inn itself is very unique, with it's history presented along the ancient walkways and garden, the room was clean and modern with plenty of space indoors and private outdoor space.

A perfect hotel! We had a large group of 21 people and there were appropriate room types for everyone: singles, couples and families. The hotel and beach were beautiful and the service was fantastic. They organized a special birthday cake and toast for one of our group that was celebrating a milestone birthday on the trip. Sundunes is beautiful, relaxing, and the food is great! It's also convenient to several beach bars and restaurants that are easy to walk to.

Don't offer this to clients. More than 20 guests despite being a small group tour (supposed to be less than 20 guests). Staff are rude. Very strict rules once onboard. No getting onto the boat wet after swimming, can't wear sunscreen, can't use the onboard bathrooms, can't have a towel, can't sit down inside the covered areas of boat, BBQ food was dry & overcooked. Stopped at swimming areas for very very short amount of time so there wasn't enough time for all on board to get in and out again.

One staff said go ahead & jump on water, next staff said absolutely no jumping in, use the one ladder for all the ppl. Very short time spent at swimming places. Hot springs (?) were just rocks in the ocean. Not warm at all, just regular ocean. Meant to be a small group of 20 ppl max but there were 28 ppl. Shortage of towels & snorkeling gear.
