Bottom Line

Anna Pension is a small budget property with simple, homey interiors and a convenient location in the village of Karterados, close to some restaurants and a five-minute drive to Fira. The hotel has an outdoor pool with a pleasant pool deck lined with seating, but besides a dining area in the lobby, there's not much else in terms of features. The 10 guest rooms are fairly basic, equipped with flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, air-conditioning, and free Wi-Fi. Some have small private balconies. Walls are thin, plus some guests complain that beds are uncomfortable. Breakfast isn't offered here, nor is there a restaurant or bar. For an alternative hotel that serves breakfast, check out the nearby Pension George, which also offers free airport and port transfers.

Oyster Hotel Review

Anna Pension

Scene

Small and homey budget hotel

This small property occupies a lovely cream-colored building with blue window shutters. Interiors are simple, but homey and pleasant, and though there's not much here in terms of common spaces, the front desk area also doubles as a dining/seating area. Purple curtains and pink tablecloths add color and a feminine look to the whitewashed walls of the space, and a handful of wooden tables and chairs offer a place to relax, gather, or dine (though there is no food served here). Guests tend to spend most of their time outdoors, and there's a lovely outdoor pool surrounded by a pleasant sundeck lined with loungers and other seating, as well as a pleasant patio area. With just 10 guest rooms, the atmosphere here is intimate. Clientele is mainly comprised of travelers on a budget. Rooms are simple and rates are affordable. It's a good and less expensive alternative to staying in Fira, where hotels are pricier.

Location

In a small village, within walking distance of some dining options; a five-minute drive to Fira

The hotel is situated in Karterados, a small village on Santorini island. There are several other hotels in the area as well as some local Greek dining options within a short walk of the property, including a restaurant that's a two-minute walk away and a bakery that can be reached in five minutes on foot. The island's main town of Fira is about a five-minute drive away or a 30-minute walk and offers many more restaurants, cafes, shops, and attractions such as museums, plus it's a popular sunset viewing destination. Guests can also take the bus there; there is a stop a 10-minute walk from the hotel. Expect about a 20-minute drive to Santos Winery and Red Beach. The village of Oia, another popular destination, is about a 30-minute drive or bus ride away. Santorini Airport is about a 15-minute drive away, while the ferry port is a 20-minute drive.

Rooms

Simple rooms have flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and free Wi-Fi -- plus some have balconies

Rooms here are small and fairly basic, but pleasant. They're clad in simple decor and traditional wooden furnishings. Hot pink or lime green bedspreads add an unexpected lively pop of electric color to the spaces, which are furnished with wooden beds, nightstands, and desks. Many of the rooms also have colorful accent walls in teal, pale green, or beige shades that further contrast the white marble floors. Some rooms open to small private furnished balconies. All rooms have flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, air-conditioning, and free Wi-Fi. Tiny bathrooms are quite tiny and covered in white tiling; they feature small curtained showers. Simple toiletries and hairdryers are supplied. Note that some guests complain that beds here uncomfortable. There have also been complaints of noise issues due to thin walls.

Features

Lovely outdoor pool and common room in reception area

This small budget hotel doesn't offer much in terms of features -- there's no restaurant or bar, nor is there a breakfast available in the mornings -- but it does have a handful of extras. The highlight is the outdoor pool, which is of decent size and has a lovely pool deck lined with umbrella-shaded loungers, wicker sofas, and tables and chairs. The reception area doubles as a dining room/common space, though no food is served here. It's furnished with several tables and chairs and guests are welcome to lounge. Other amenities include free Wi-Fi and luggage storage.
