Pros:

We stayed at this hotel last week and overall had a really great experience.
The food was especially impressive — everything we tried was delicious and fresh.

A big shoutout to the receptionist ladies, who were so welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. Their friendliness really made a difference and added a personal touch.

Beautiful Views
Pros:

The view was beautiful, and there were some pretty features such as the ceiling. Overall our experience was not great due to the service being not very hospitable, the furnishings old and not kept up, and less clean than expected. Rust on the hinges, black spots on the sink basin, very dirty outdoor lounge cushions. Would expect more for what we paid. The location is also a bit out of the way.

Pros:

Great location within walking distance to Oia, in a quiet and safe area. The pool area is beautiful, with some rooms offering pools that overlook the ocean—very boho style and charming. The only downside was the water service: they mentioned they would refill the in-room water bottles daily, but during our two-day stay, this wasn’t done, even after I asked at reception. When we moved to a new room, the same issue happened. Aside from that, the staff was very nice and helpful. If you want to stay close to Oia without splurging, this is a solid option

Pros:

Nightmare Honeymoon – Avoid This Hotel!

Our honeymoon stay at this hotel was a complete disaster. The hotel was almost impossible to find, with many uneven steps down a hill that make carrying suitcases extremely difficult.

Our room was shocking: it smelled bad, the shower was broken, the balcony shutter didn’t work, and the room was never cleaned during our entire 4-night stay. The pool was cold, filthy, and eventually swarmed with insects. The website promised welcome drinks and a fruit platter, which we never received.

When we raised all these issues, the staff were completely indifferent and offered no solutions. For the price we paid, this stay was unacceptable. We would strongly warn anyone against booking this hotel, especially for a special occasion.

Perfect place to stay for our trip to Santorini! Lovely staff. Area was a bit tucked away from the hustle and bustle, while shopping and dining were an easy walk. Loved it’s easy accessibility to hiking trails as well!

Pros:

Very hard to get to and nobody to help get luggage down to the hotel. The lady with long brown hair was wonderful at check in and throughout the stay. The lady with blond e hair was VERY rude.
The overall stay was ok. The shower design is terrible and water goes everywhere in the bathroom. Needs a shower curtain or door. They wouldn’t wash our towels each day as it would cost extra. They had no hand soap in the room so there was nothing to was your hands with. I asked the blonde lady for some hand soap and she said “that’s what we provide shampoo for”. There is also no coffee provided in the room. This was a let down. We also tried to order something from the bar and was told there was nobody there to make us anything. Very unacceptable. The pool water and plunge pool were frigid! Couldn’t enjoy those.
Not sure I would stay here again.
Views were amazing though.

Pros:

We had difficulty locating the hotel from the main road, since it’s tucked down a hillside across the street from the parking, which had little signage. We stayed in a superior double suite with plunge pool. Our room was very small. No space for clothes or counters/shelves to set items. No room for toiletries. They only change towels every three days. Small fridge but it had stuff in it when we got there. The power went on and off, we were never notified about the issue. Witnessed some uncomfortable and, frankly, unprofessional conversations between staff when we tried to lay out by the big pool. Yelling amongst the staff lasted most of the afternoon. Our corner room had VERY little privacy. The plunge pool was advertised at “private” but the room we stayed in overlooked the entire deck, bar, and reception desk, so we didn’t have any privacy. We found we couldn’t keep any of our doors/windows open without being seen by neighbors or staff. The walls were very thin, we could hear doors open and shut, people talking, other noises from our neighbors. We spent roughly the same price on a hotel on the nearby island, Ios, that was MUCH nicer, which was disappointing for us considering we spent six of our seven nights here. Our biggest complaint was, my expensive headphones were stolen by housekeeping. Fortunately, I was able to track them moving afterward. When I contacted the hotel about this, they ghosted me. Overall, very unprofessional and disappointing experience.

Pros:

I would stay away from this property. We were not able to use an amenity (the personal hot pool) due to the heater being broken. It was frigid. The property did nothing to fix this issue throughout the duration of our stay. Having access to a personal hot pool was the primary reason we booked it, and so, it was a complete disappointment. They refused to offer any refund for the lack of amenity use and for not delivering on what they said they offer, which is extremely poor customer service. The breakfast was average, and often arrived cold. There were ants in our room and the 'superior suites' are very tiny.

Pros:

Amazing staff and helpful.
Rooms cleaned daily.
The sunset view from the hotel was amazing.
The only issue was that we couldn’t use the main swimming pool. This should have been specified on expedia while booking.
