    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating

    Black Sandy Beach is like an oversized version of a Greek villa. Mosaics are dotted around the whitewashed walls, and there’s an open-sided bar designed to look like a traditional taverna.

    Black Sandy Beach is all about simple holiday staples. The rooms are unfussy and bright, and out by the pool you’ll find hammocks, loungers and an open-sided taverna. It’s kept hold of the family-run feel, too, so you’ll see little Greek touches like mosaicked walls and a white-and-blue colour scheme.

    This place is a great base for exploring Santorini. The beach at Perissa is less than five minutes’ walk away, and you can reach the ancient ruins and blue-domed hillsides of the capital, Thira, in 20 minutes’ drive.

    Small, spotless, attractive.

    This is undoubtably the cleanest, best maintained and friendliest hotel we’ve ever been in. The decor is attractive; it includes large, hand-painted murals in each room; an attractive foyer with lovely old chairs and a cabinet of old (faux) artefacts. Breakfast is a relaxed affair, in the bar area, next to the small pool. It’s a mixture of Greek, a serious try at English and a nod in the direction of smorgasbord & the coffee is excellent! The pool is small and although raised above it, it abuts a little road that has frequent traffic. The exterior of the hotel is also very attractive and although we had a good sized balcony, many were quite small. Our room itself was pretty, with FREE air-con but the layout is set in stone - literally! Each bed, single or double, has a comfortable mattress on a slatted base which is set on a concrete plinth; so you can’t put two beds together or your suitcases underneath. Our room was too small for a two week stay; it had a tiny, set in, wardrobe that incorporated two base drawers, a FREE safe. The space above it took one suitcase. The room had a shelf under a large mirror but no other drawers nor bedside tables; my side was jammed against the wall which meant a clamber to get out. We asked to move, but the only alternative offered was a lower room with three single beds - one in each corner (also immovable) and a tiny balcony. Our en-suite (excellent shower) was thoroughly cleaned each day and we had soft fresh towels daily. As I said - the owners and staff can’t do enough for you - they’re lovely; but I’ve only given it four stars as, having booked months before, we really struggled to cope with the size of the room for a two week stay. If it happens to you, we managed by taking clean clothing from one suitcase into the wardrobe and putting the used clothing in the second suitcase.
    Very Good

    Stayed here for 2 weeks,what a great place,only 12 room I believe,our room was well appointed with all the necessary equipment,unlike other places we've stayed we had to wash cups and glasses up in the bathroom basin but it wasn't a problem,just worth mentioning! Everywhere was spotless and I mean spotless! The pool is smallish but that meant it was warmer than most,for the first 10 days of our stay my partner and I had the whole pool to ourselves,I think the other guests must have been sightseeing or beach people! The owner is a nice guy,friendly but not in your face,willing to help out or offer advice! We did feel like naughty children when we were locked out at 5 past midnight on our 2nd night but the owner was very gracious about it. All in all a very pleasant stay!
    Great hotel apart from our room
    12 Aug , 2019 smallheathalliance2, 227129
    Lovely hotel and people running it Would have given it 5 out of 5 apart from the fact we were unlucky enough to cop the smallest room in the hotel which is on the top floor and arched like a cave. The bed is against the wall so my wife didn't have a bedside table and had to clamber over me to go to the loo in the night If you don't get this room you will have a great holiday as George and his family are very friendly and helpful and the food is fine
    Fantastic Holiday!

    Everything about this place that has been described is so true. Francescos was waiting for us on arrival even though it was nearly 1am and we received a lovely friendly welcome. We were shown to room 15 to which we were both instantly impressed. Due to it being so late we just went to bed. The hotel is immaculate. Not just clean but immaculate. I reckon you could have eaten your food off the floor anywhere in the hotel!!The room was kept so clean, fresh towels every day and bedding every other day, sometimes every day! Good air conditioning, free safe and a really good shower! Plenty of pressure and hot water, we loved the room! Francesco is such a friendly owner, we had many conversations with him and he was genuinely interested in feedback and giving out good recommendations. We are cat people and he has a cat Zena so lots of time was wasted talking to Zena too!!i tried to speak very basic Greek ( with the help of the internet) and he spent a lot of time correcting but talking with me! The breakfast was very good. A great choice of hot and cold and a daily home made cake... it was my highlight of the morning finding which one was the cake of the day! All of them were so lovely and I don’t eat any cake at home! The location was great for the beach, about a five minute walk. We live near a beach so we are more into that then pools so we didn’t go in the hotel pool but once again, it was immaculate. There are plenty of nice restaurants within a ten minute walk, we found some really good ones that were not expensive although you could very expensive if you wanted to! Message me if you want our restaurant recommendations! We met some lovely people there and they kindly let us keep our luggage in their room on the last day but there is a room for luggage storage if needed. We had a fantastic holiday in Santorini and we both said we will definitely go back and 100%will stay at the Black Sandy Beach!
    What a lovely hotel.

    The owner Franciscos and his lovely wife welcomed us like family. Nothing was too much for them as they clearly wanted to ensure we were having a great time at their hotel. The property is supremely clean and tidy and beautifully decorated. We will definitely re-visit next time we are in Santorini.
