The beds were comfortable, the A\C worked well, the pool was salty, not chlorinated, you could get food at the poolside tables. (we didn't try the many breakfast options) Staff were flexible and accommodating. There is a shuttle between Fira and the hotel.
It's not near anything else, but you've got the beach, the pool, poolside food and a fancy beach bar. There was no shower head, only a wand.

Hotelli oli pieni ja rauhallinen. Allas oli kiva. Kolmen tunnin välein ilmainen kuljetus firaan ja takaisin.
Hotellihuoneet ovat hyvin pieniä. Ei mahdollisuutta tehdä itse aamupalaa tms koska huoneissa vain jääkaappi ja vedenkeitin. Standar huoneissa parvekkeelle ei mahdu. Osa työntekijöistä oli erittäin tympeitä. Sivuilta luettujen kuvailujen ja arvosteluiden perusteella paikka oli iso pettymys, koska odotukset niiden perusteella oli kohtuullisen korkealla. Majoitus on erittäin syrjässä eikä lähellä ole markettia tms mistä voisi ostaa jotain snackkia. Yksi ravintola löytyy läheltä, jossa aurinkokatokset, joiden hinta oli reilu 100€. Rannasta oli hankala päästä uimaan.

The rooms were so cute! Good size and with a gorgeous balcony. We also really appreciated the shuttle bus service into Fira each day. Beach also very close to hotel. oh, and Netflix on your TV & fridge!
The shower/ bathroom was dated and small. hard to shower in. We wanted to go in the pool but didn’t feel comfy as it was green water????

The lady at the hotel made us feel like family, friendly, honest and genuine. Really a great host. The shuttle bus to the centre and back (free of charge) was a bonus and made it easier for us to just enjoy our stay and not to worry about transportation.

We booked this accommodation as it was advertised as two rooms which suited our family. We arrived and what qe got was a bedroom and a loft, if you are more than 1.5mts tall you can stand up. No safety barrier on the balcony children can fall. Pool pump right next door noisy. This property is far away from everything, no restaurants, no shops to buy anything they offer a shuttle service to the main area of thera, but long walk to everything.
I complained about room and noise, so we were given a bigger room shower on this room leaked outside causing a tripping hazard.
The area around is old and extremely rundown, you feel you are on the wrong side of the tracks.
Requested a partial refund, not a full refund and I was told no. I wouldn't recommend this property to anyone

Nice hotel, extremely friendly staff, lovely quiet location which was what I was looking for. 30 second walk to small black sand beach with friendly bar. Transport to Fira every 2 hours, from where you can get cheap buses all over the island.

The bus stop near no man's land could be little closer also the crossing the road was a bit dangerous

Staff were very helpful with every question I had! beautiful location 1 minute walk form Yalos Santorini beach bar that had amazing food and good for a night out so close! Free shuttle bus every couple hours from hotel and back was very handy 😃
Wasn’t able
to use room towels for pool so had to buy one but that’s about the only thing everything else made up for it.

Cindy was an amazing host and did everything possible to make us feel welcome. What a beautiful soul. I even made a mistake in booking only one night instead of 2. Cindy provided us with a quick solution for the first night... We even got an upgrade. Very friendly staff, clean rooms, great breakfast. Thank you for everything.
