Accommodation
Our top recommendation in Messaria, where the school is located, is Hotel Kalma, which offers generous discounts on single and double rooms for our TEFL course participants.
A more economical alternative, also close by the school in Messaria, is Hotel Anny, a two-star hotel which offers double rooms for twelve euros per person in July and September, rising to twenty in August.
In nearby
Karterados, about fifteen minutes' walk from the school,
our top recommendations are
Villa Manos, which offers
self-catering facilities and has rooms from ten euros per person
per night, and
Hotel Cyclades which also offers
greatly reduced rates for our TEFL trainees.
Other alternatives close
to the school
in Messaria are Hotel Apollon, which
is right across the road from the school, and Loizos Hotel,
next door to Apollon. Villa Danezis
and
Hotel Kalisperis are also close
by.
Other alternatives in Karterados include Pension Livadaros,
Atlas Pension, Villa Rosa,
Agapi Villas,
Pension Stella and
Stavros Villas.
Kavallaris
Pension is in Vothanas, also just
outside of Messaria but to the South.
There is plentiful accommodation in the main
town of Santorini, Fira, which is two miles from
Messaria. Most of the centrally-located accommodation is very
expensive, but a few of the more affordable options are
Anemomilos Suites,
Antonia Apartments and
Villa Popi.
As Messaria is very well connected by bus,
you can choose to stay pretty much anywhere in Santorini. The map below shows
the bus routes, all of which pass through Messaria. Bus
timetables are available
here.
Just a short bus ride from the
school, Kamari is one of the
nearest beach resorts, and offers accommodation of all types at
reasonable prices.
There is lots of inexpensive
accommodation by the beach in Perissa, about five miles away to
the South-East. At the
North-Western end of the island, the spectacular Oia is about
eight miles from Messaria. Accommodation options here include
Youth Hostel Oia. As soon as you enroll on
the course, we'll advise you on the available
options according to your preferences.
When making your choice of course dates, do make sure you take
into account the cost of accommodation, which increases
considerably in the summer season. Also, bear in mind that
Santorini is one of the most desirable destinations in the
world, and accommodation does get booked up well in advance.
