    I would have preferred to have the pool towels kept down by the pool area or provided in room… rather than having to walk up to the reception area. I also would have preferred to have simple things such as tissues and washcloths in the room rather than needing to request them.

    The property was well maintained and overall just beautiful. We really enjoyed relaxing by the pool after a long day of exploring the villages. Then in the evening, it was an easy walk into Fira. The location of the resort was perfect. The hotel staff and manager were exceptional and worked above and beyond to make sure our stay was just as we hoped for.

    It was a little hike to town. Offering essentials (snacks/water, etc) would have made it feel more convenient.

    The resort was clean and well cared for.

    Gym hours were not conducive to being able to work out if you had any touring plans. Gym is only open from 8 am-8 pm, and breakfast hours are also short from 8-10:30 am so no real possibility of working out before breakfast and doing an activity. Shuttle service to/from port and airport is well run but not free. It’s 35 euros for the port each way and 25 for the airport. Both the hotel we stayed at in Rafina port and on Mykonos offered free pickup from Athens airport and Mykonos ferry port, respectively. It would have been nice to have this service as well (especially considering Santorini is so small—Athens airport to Rafina by comparison is a much further drive).

    Resort is located an easy walk to town—it’s really about 10 minutes—you’d have to be walking at an extremely slow pace to make it take longer (some reviews have said 20 minutes plus? No idea how unless you are talking to the opposite edge of town). You can also easily walk through the center of the resort to get to a strip of cheaper restaurants and shops, including a much bigger supermarket, away from the more expensive tourist locations. Breakfast is good with lots of options. We also had dinner at the pool bar one night when we got back late—food was tasty and prices were reasonable. Concierge was very helpful in setting up excursions, which were totally worth it—we did the catamaran tour (day) and the all day bus excursion. We were also upgraded to a junior suite upon arrival.

    Few drinking water bottles should be complimentary each day, but I think this was the same case for all the hotels in Fira.

    Luxury Stay with great views and swimming pools. Entire hotel was very well maintained. Near to the Fira town center Quality Breakfast with great options Helping staff Luggage Dropoff/Storage Airport pickup and dropoff service (Paid)

    Too bad to have 5 swimming pools none of them are heated. So nobody can swim. Not even the jaccuzi or the inside pool. It is a real shame because the rest was perfect

    Close to Fira by foot. The villas are very confortable with a beautiful view on the caldeira and the sunset

    Bathroom items, such as conditioner, body lotion, tissues should be provided without customers asking for them. Coffee machines would complement the resort. The breakfast variety and choice of breakfast items should be reviewed.

    Friendly, professional staff, excellent grounds, excellent rooms: spacious, comfortable and tastefully decorated. Beautiful resort with great pools, greenery, very close to the center, quiet.

    Coffee machines would be good.

    El Greco resort is lovely and beautifully designed With lots of thought given to making iits customers stay comfortable and memorable. The white buildings spread all over on five different levels are complemented by lots of greens and five large swimming pools. Nice casual restraint and a bar add convenience to their customers and provide good quality food. Breakfast is good but would benefit from porridge, cold meat and cheese choices.

    These are nice to have: - Mattress was too firm - There are 5 or 6 pools but none of them are heated, perhaps this would be a nice addition for people staying outside the summer season?

    Everything, the resort exceeded our expectations by a mile. Hospitality is fantastic, and so is the food. The location is great, very close to Fira city centre but very quiet, with a beautiful spot for the sunset and plenty of private parking. This is a great hotel if you plan to travel with kids and will hire a car.

    It was such a fabulous place. A few pools meant that guests weren’t squashed and we always managed to get a sun bed that was directly in sunshine all day! Staff were really friendly and accommodating, too. The spa was also amazing and I had a great massage there. Food within the hotel is brilliant, but it’s also only a five minute walk from the main strip of bars and restaurants. Just over the road from the front door is a cliff edge with the most beautiful view of the sea (particularly the sun set at night). I can’t recommend this place enough and I’ll definitely be back one day!

    Cold swimming pools in beginning of April. Terrible cheap and used for a long pillows. Repetitive breakfast during 6 days. A little bit noisy from the road, we stayed in junior suite 207, it’s second row.

    Looks new. Junior suite 207 big, fresh furniture. Well kept territory. Friendly stuff. Good gym. Both restaurants are very nice.

    Hotel was closing for the winter on the day I left and there were no facilities available after breakfast other than luggage room and showers. It would have been nice to have had sun loungers and pool available at least until early afternoon. Room was too bright at night with exit light over door and another light, but this issue was resolved as soon as I raised it with reception staff.

    Very friendly and helpful staff and Maria, the concierge, was brilliant with recommendations for local restaurants and tours. Beautiful, spotlessly clean pools. Big, bright and airy room and balcony, cleaned daily. Excellent bar food and room service. I understood there was a la carte restaurant in the evenings, but this wasn't available when I asked.

    What a fantastic resort. It is within a 10 minute walk into Fira. We had an enormous room. The room was regularly cleaned.The resort had great amenities. Many pools to chose from and a bar. The buffet breakfast was fabulous with a great variety of food. We also ordered room service which was very prompt and of a high standard. The bar was great. The staff with no exception were all helpful, knowledgable and polite.
