Our room and location exceeded expectations. The view outside our window was heaven. Faye, the hotelier, was incredibly helpful and gave excellent recommendations for dinners, excursion packages, and assistance on logistics when departing. She really took her time with each guest and was incredibly caring. The hotel room was very clean and refreshed daily, as well as their entire property. All of the staff was very friendly and quick to help with bags or escorting us so we wouldn’t get lost. Breakfasts were served directly to our room each morning and they were very delicious with lots of options. We enjoyed the locations for several reasons. The view was beautiful, lots of shops and restaurants nearby, lots of sunset locations, all of which were peaceful and free from the chaos of other locations. And the ambiance was rich. We enjoyed listening to distant live music from our private-outdoor balcony at night. Sometimes it would be quiet piano playing, or singing. Nothing ever too loud, and the rooms were silent. A very peaceful location and hotel. We also enjoyed using the plunge pool. It was a nice way to cool off at the end of a day of sightseeing, before heading off to dinner. She helped us arrange a catamaran afternoon excursion that ended in a sunset cruise with a beautiful view of the sunset. There were only 16 passengers on the sailboat total, and they were all really nice and friendly. And we enjoyed the chance to stop and swim at so many different spots around the caldera, including the hot springs. Lunch was delicious, and as vegetarians, we appreciated they offering vegetarian options. We also got to see the pink and white beaches, which we would not have been able to see, otherwise. We also got to see the big black rock and other things that can only be seen from the water. Faye also gave us a few recommendations for our first sunset dinner. One of her top pics for us was the White Lounge. We read reviews online, which said the views were great, but the food wasn’t. But we went with it knowing everything is expensive in Santorini, and also, you are paying for the view, especially at sunset. It was the perfect choice for our first sunset in Santorini. This restaurant really has an ideal set-up with so many different spots for all their guests to view the sunset without people obscuring it. The food was also pretty good (again, we are vegetarians and understand we always have limited options) and the staff was very friendly. I especially appreciated the waitress bringing everyone blankets after sunset as it suddenly became chilly!
