Bellissima posizione ,pulizia nella media si poteva fare di meglio e colazione così così
Pros:

Struttura fantastica proprio sul mare,non hai nulla davanti a parte una fantastica vista in prima fila sulla caldera.
Camera molto accogliente ,molto local

Cons:

Se vuoi una bella vista un po’ te la devi sudare, mooolti gradini per arrivare alla camera ma ne vale davvero la pena .
Unica cosa la colazione,puoi scegliere o di riceverla in camera o di andare al bar della piscina che è davvero piccolo.
Noi abbiamo scelto la colazione in camera ,l’unica cosa è che noi sceglievamo un orario,loro arrivavano giusti ma non essendoci il campanello bussavano e non si sentiva molto,quindi dovevi stare attento !
Colazione non entusiasmante,molto poco caratteristica,l’unica cosa greca era lo Yogurt

Magical 2 night stay I’ll cherish.!
Pros:

Magic location. Attentive staff and service.

Beautiful location, but the hotel could use some updates to match its “luxury” label
Pros:

We came here for our honeymoon. The location is lovely — right at the top of the hill with great views, and there are plenty of nice restaurants nearby.

Cons:

The hotel has potential, but it feels a bit dated and would really benefit from some renovation. The bathrobes are quite worn and the hot tub area could use some refreshment. Overall, it doesn’t quite meet the expectations of a Small Luxury Hotel.

Pros:

Naprosto úžasný zážitek! Hotel nabízí krásné ubytování s dechberoucím výhledem na kalderu.
Příjemným překvapením byl upgrade na suitu s vířivkou, která celý pobyt ještě více zpříjemnila. Oceňujeme zejména pocit soukromí. Personál byl velmi milý, pozorný a ochotný pomoci s čímkoli. Snídaně s donáškou na pokoj – chutná, krásně servírovaná přímo na terase s výhledem. Celkově perfektní pobyt.

Cons:

Протекал умывальник, душ был сразу в комнате без дверей с одной перегородкой, вода затекала в комнату.

Pros:

The hotel has the perfect location. It is in a touristic area with a lot of options, but at the same time it is rather quiet around the hotel. Not too busy with guests like some other areas of the island. also the views in the hotel are to die for. The free breakfast in the hotel room options is also great with the beautiful balconies the rooms have.

Incredible views, staff, food and drinks, hotel itself needs some TLC
Pros:

The staff were incredible, they could not do enough for you! Breakfast on your balcony each morning was a highlight and the food both at breakfast and lunch was faultless. Our room was upgraded on arrival and it was spacious with good storage options. Drinks sat at the pool bar were perfect.

Cons:

The whole property needs some TLC, the pools/hot tub's all need emptying and cleaning, the whole property needs deep cleaning and fixing, our bathroom had mould and over half of the lights in our room did not work. The owners would benefit giving the property some attention in the off season to warrant the prices they charge.
