When we arrived our room seemed as if it had not been cleaned completely. There were stains on the top cover (sheet) of the bed. We contacted the front desk and were told they would change the sheet the next day! Some towels were missing from the initially provided set as compared to what was supplied the rest of our stay. The private jacuzzi/pool was very cloudy, once it was cleaned the next day, it was clear. There was a lot of peeling paint around the facilities. For the money spent, $900 USD per night, we expected perfection on every point. Because of the price point, expectations of all details of property should match the level paid.

Excellent hotel. We had a VIP exclusive entrance to our room. They accommodate a extra bed request. The staffs are very friendly and professional. The highlights are the pool with transparent wall, the gorgeous sunset from our room chairs, the private huge jacuzzi that change light colors, the communication is very effective though the WhatsApp, the breakfast in front of our room looking at the sea is an amazing experience, the location of the hotel is excellent for fabulous photos. The only downside is the dinner. The food is terrible. I was unable to finish any dish. In addition to that is very price

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon. The hotel was fantastic. Some highlights were the staff, who I was could text message with all day long to get taxi's and make restaurant reservations with ease. The cave pool we had was beyond romantic. Also, they had an area that taxi's could drive right up to which helped with our luggage. Some other hotels in Santorini are situated in a way that your car can only get so close. Our room itself also had great mood lighting and audio integration with Sonos. If I were to have one negative it is that our room was a little on the small side for the rate we paid, but that didn't detract from the fun!!

What an amazing place to stay. Our room had an indoor pool and a steam room and the best showers ever. Beautiful views and someone came to clean each time we left the room not just once a day. Very close to everything. And the staff was super nice very accommodating and top tier. I will say it was super expensive but everything here is and my only “complaint” was that it would get really hot at night due to the pool room heat and the hot water wasn’t hot on our last day but it’s didn’t hamper our trip much.
