    literally everything was perfect. no notes! stay here!

    The room was spacious and comfortable, the A/C worked well, the beds were very comfortable, breakfast was INCREDIBLE, Takis was extremely helpful and informative and the VIEW, you truly cannot beat the Caldera view. This is a prime location in Oia, your patio and view is private but if you peek over you can see tons of tourists taking pictures (and lining up) for a view that you can enjoy at your own pace during breakfast. They coordinated a taxi (which we paid for) from the airport, then someone from the hotel met us and we had to walk a bit to the hotel but it was a short/simple walk. Takis met us immediately and gave us a tour of our room and explained everything. He was helpful recommending restaurants and things to do. I reallycannot say enough positive things about this gorgeous historical building. Of note, we stayed in the Sailing Suite, our friends stayed in the Venetian Suite, these rooms share a patio to enjoy the view. Separate tables and stuff but if you don't know your neighbors just know that you will be sharing this space!

    Because of the great location by the blue dome, you had a constant stream of tourists just outside the unit, but wasn’t really a big deal as you had a lot of privacy in the unit. Minor negative - we did see a few ants in the front room - management was responsive when we told them about it.

    Great location. Great views. Nice breakfast. Friendly host. Need to be fit to walk up and down the steps as you approach the property. Porter was available when needed to help with our suitcases. Quiet and comfortable. A/c worked well. Four of us were very comfortable.

    Superb location and lodging in the primary balcony room. Great views, great breakfast on the balcony, big bathroom, comfy bed, very helpful owner/manager. Only a dozen or so steps down from the main pedestrian walkway makes it perfect for people with bad knees! Some hotels are dozens and most steps are uneven.

    N/A. Everything was best

    This was the best experience we had during our Aug trip to the Santorini. Location was amazing with beautiful view. Manger Takis arranged everything for us with local tour on the island and cruise trip. This place was 1000 sqft with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and private hot tub. They served best breakfast in the morning 9am. They adjust breakfast according to Veg. I really like service and everything about this place. I share this location with friends and they will plan to visit this location. Best location and service. 5 stars plus ratting.

    Nothing at all. Probably the lack of a shower curtain for the tub shower is the only suggested improvement.

    Excellent vintage property with stunning views of the Caldera in Oia. We loved the interiors which were vintage old world charm.
