  : The location of this hotel was exactly what we needed. It is on the end of the walkway/path so it is quiet but only steps away from all the action. Meaning you can see and feel all that Fira has to offer and then retreat to your private paradise to rest. The view from the hotel was better than I was expecting. It is so expansive it is hard to show in photos. We spent a little bit of time enjoying the pool and view each day because it was too hard to pass up. We booked two rooms to accommodate our family that required three bedrooms. Both rooms (one with two rooms, one with one room) were very spacious and had everything we needed. The morning breakfast was brought to us based on the time requested (or adjusted time if to many breakfasts were ordered for the same time) and was a true bounty of food. It was really nice to start the day without having to figure out where to get food or what to get. We had a few requests for the staff which they were happy to handle for us (restaurant reservations, transportation to Oia and back, early morning food). This is a very small hotel (like so many in Fira) which means it has a peaceful calm relaxing atmosphere. We were aware there were other guests but it never felt crowded. The rooms are so large that you don't get that feeling that someone else is right next to you. Ah, as I write this I am longing for another day by the pool looking at that awesome view.
  : Unfortunately because of the donkeys/mules that are used in the area, there are quite a lot of flies. Eating breakfast outside in the morning wasn't as nice as it could be because of the flies. The hotel seemed to be trying to address it by hanging some donkey poop traps behind some trees and bushes. I don't think the hotel can control the flies but at least they were trying. We also had ants in one of the rooms. I was not told about this until after the trip so unfortunately we were not able to alert the staff. I had noticed some ant bait/repellant under the bathroom sink so I assume they were on a constant battle with ants. I'm sure this has more to do with the island/environment than the quality/condition of the hotel.

  : Exceptional location near enough to be in the thick of things within minutes but far away enough to enjoy the peace and quiet away from the tourist huddle and bustle. Great facilities and breakfast

  : The properties location is great, a short walk to the hustle and bustle of Fira but also removed enough to not be too noisy and crowded. The views are outstanding and Stacey at the front desk was incredible. We loved her.

  : Stayed in The Norma suite. It was huge, clean, bright and the AC worked really well. It was right next to the pool, which no one really used so we felt like we had it all to ourselves every day. The staff are amazing. They are super friendly, polite and helpful. They work super hard to ensure their guests have the best experience. And last but not least: THE EPIC VIEW OF THE CALDERA!
  : The only thing that I didnt like was the cost, but it was Santorini in high season, and it is right in the heart of Fira, so when you take that all into consideration, I guess it is to be expected.

Very Good

  : The staff were very nice. Location was perfect. Breakfast was not too bad. Booked essentially for the indoor and outdoor jacuzzi pools, the outdoor overlooking Fira and the Caldera with uninterrupted sunset views.
  : The floors are very slippery when wet. The rooms, possibly from the shower drain/sewerage system, had a very bad smell from them the entire time however I am unsure if this could have been fixed, maybe a systemic issue. Our bedroom aircon broke and we advised in the morning and came back in the afternoon to the same issue. A fan was provided which was adequate for one night stay.
