Stayed here for 3 nights in October — room was big, clean, and the sunset view was amazing! Lots of good restaurants around, and Fira is only a 10-min walk. If you’ve got big luggage, better get a porter.

Very nice hotel, big room, very nice people 💙 and incredible view. The breakfast on the terrasse with this view is amazing! I definitely recommend it. Add blue touches to the room and everything's perfect 🙂
Mind the steps through, I don't recommend it to elderly people.

Room with a view! Good breakfast for extra fee, delivered to the outdoor table by the room door. Dining in front of the caldera view is just priceless 😍 Room was just alright, nothing to complain. Good air conditioning. Lot's of restaurants nearby. Nice and friendly staff. Thank you!

They welcomed us with drinks, and the manager at the reception was very accommodating. She explained everything about the island, offered us tours to the caldera, and even gave tips on places to visit by car along with other attractions around the island. Also they have the best view of sunset and the caldera.

We stayed 4 nights at Manos Small World in August 2025 and had an amazing experience. Having stayed in Oia in 2023, this time I wanted to be in the other main area of Santorini — and this hotel was the perfect choice.

The views are incredible. Every room looks directly over the Caldera with unobstructed sunset and sunrise views. Each morning we woke up to the entire water spread out before us, even visible from bed with the windows open. Evenings on the balcony with a bottle of wine watching the sunset were unforgettable.

The room itself was comfortable and spacious, with nice touches like a sink, fridge, couch, and table. It’s simple but functional, and the balcony was the real highlight.

Breakfast is served on your balcony between 8:00–10:30am by Luis, who made the experience extra special. He always greeted us warmly, set up the table beautifully, made sure we had extra coffee, and even slipped us extra water bottles a few times. On our departure day, he carried two 50-pound suitcases up the steep steps like it was nothing — truly above and beyond. Renalda at reception was equally wonderful. She was so kind, welcoming, and always asked about our day, which made the stay feel extra personal.

The only area that could improve is breakfast itself. While the concept of a private balcony setup is charming, the food leaned heavily on bread, with only a small yogurt and a single egg for protein. With gluten sensitivities, I found the options a bit limited compared to other places we stayed in Greece. That said, we still appreciated the effort, and it didn’t take away from the overall experience.

Overall, I’d rate this property 5/5 on everything. Between the unbeatable views, the comfort of the room, and the incredible hospitality from Luis and Renalda, Manos Small World made our Santorini stay unforgettable. We’ll definitely return and recommend it to anyone visiting the island.

I stayed here with my daughters, and the view was absolutely stunning — we were in awe the moment we arrived. Due to the terrain, there are some steep stairs, but Louis kindly carried all of our luggage, so it wasn’t a problem at all. Renalda at the reception was so friendly and attentive, checking in to make sure everything was comfortable during our stay.
Thank you, Renalda and Louis!

The scenery is beautiful, the location is great, the service staff is friendly, the room is clean and tidy, and the request for late check-out is perfectly accommodated. The room is well-equipped. It is definitely the best choice.

The room is very nice, beyond imagination.
Watch the sunset from the front and the sunrise from the back.
The transportation is convenient, it can be reached in about 20 minutes' walk from the bus station
There are a lot of delicious food nearby

They gave me a junior suite even if I booked a superior one, but the staff promptly proposed me to swap rooms the second day! (In the end I preferred the view from the small one so I stayed there)

The view is amazing, the position is pretty strategic to visit the whole island, the staff working there is great! I didn’t try the breakfast but looked good!
I really appreciated the level noise isolation, in an area full of restaurants and people it’s a great plus.

The only thing missing is a pool, but you can go to the hotel next to Manos for 20€.
