Viola, Kamilari Overview
Viola is located in Kamilari, Greece. Rated 9.6 out of 10 based on 5 guest reviews.
Viola is a calm stay in Kamilari, Greece, set on Καμηλαρι and well suited to travelers who want a slower pace between beach time and cultural days. With a guest rating of 9.6/10 from just a handful of reviews, the overall impression is consistently positive, with guests highlighting the care taken by the team and the comfort of the apartments. The property’s salt-water pool and hot tub/Jacuzzi are the standout after a day out, giving you a place to unwind without needing to travel far. Air conditioning helps you reset indoors when the Crete sun is at its strongest, and the terrace and BBQ facilities make it easy to spend longer evenings at the property.
If you’re planning sightseeing, Phaistos Archaeological Site is about 3 km away, making it a practical half-day trip, while Kommos Beach is roughly 3.5–4 km from the hotel for a change of scenery and sea air.

The accommodation approach is also part of the appeal: staff follow local safety protocols, rooms are disinfected between stays, and cleaning standards are designed to be effective against Coronavirus. Guests can expect hand sanitizer availability in key areas and guest rooms, plus physical distancing rules. Viola is best for couples and small families who prefer a quiet base near major attractions, and who value on-site relaxation as much as day trips.
