Pros:

Great location. Oia is too busy and this provides a reasonable short walk to both Oia and Thirs

Cons:

There was a fair amount of traffic across our balcony as people came and went but its location and view were fantastic

When Nature & people are both great, you in for a great holiday !
Pros:

The hotel is immaculate. The views are stunning. The breakfast is great but nothing greater than the attitude of the staff, every one of them is just a joy to talk to. They are natural & genuine & will do anything to make your stay comfortable

Very disappointed
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

One of the most disappointing hotel experiences I’ve had, especially for a Leading Hotels of the World property. The rooms were dirty and extremely humid — the pillows literally felt damp, the bedsheets had stains, there was no hot water in the shower, and even the jacuzzi in the room had no hot water, so the only way to properly wash was using the bathtub. The kettle in the room was black inside. At the pool restaurant, the card terminal did not work despite three attempts to pay, so we were told to settle the bill at check-out. During check-out, the receptionist spent around 15 minutes repeatedly printing incorrect invoices, and then we discovered they added items we never ordered, including a Coca-Cola. Even after explaining this, they insisted we had to pay because I had signed the receipt without noticing the extra charge. The most shocking part was the forced tip — I clearly stated I no longer wished to leave a tip after this experience, yet they still insisted on charging it because I had signed earlier. Tips are voluntary, not mandatory. The entire check-out process took around 45 exhausting minutes while we kept hearing “the manager is coming,” but no manager ever appeared. Even something as simple as tea became ridiculous: first they brought only tea bags, and only after I asked where to get hot water did they finally bring a kettle, which was filthy inside. For a hotel associated with Leading Hotels of the World, this level of service and hygiene is honestly embarrassing.

war sehr nett aber man muss nicht wiederkommen
Pros:

Frühstück war gut aber nach dem dritten tag sehr monoton und alles am pool war absurd overpriced .. da kann man zwei Minuten aus der hotel anlage gehen und sich alles im shop selber holen

Cons:

die dusche war offen wodurch sie überall hin spritzt .. es war immer alles nass

Pros:

Our stay was absolute perfection. The staff was wonderfully attentive, and the location couldn’t have been better for us. Just a 25-minute drive to Oia, we were close enough to explore but far enough to escape the crowds—plus we had breathtaking views and warm hospitality right where we were.

We did the morning hike to avoid the heat, which was such a memorable experience. Breakfast was outstanding—truly sensational—and every WhatsApp request we sent was answered quickly. The staff also arranged drivers who arrived right on time. (Tip: if you’re traveling during “rush hour” to a popular spot, it’s worth booking a bit ahead.)

Our cave room was a dream, complete with a balcony overlooking the ocean. We loved relaxing on the deck every morning. There was even a small walk-in closet where we could tuck our luggage out of the way, and a little table inside that made a perfect spot for working or unwinding.

One of the best experiences you can have
Pros:

This is by far the best hotel experience me and my wife have ever had. Everyone was hospitable, showed care and overall constantly made sure we had a unique good experience. The reception always treated us right and even made sure we had breakfast to go in the next morning due to our early flight. Kosta went above and beyond helping us out in the morning as well!
