All I can say is wow! The hotel was beautiful, the staff was super friendly, & the drinks & food were amazing. My boyfriend and I absolutely loved our room, hanging by the pool, and going to the beach lounge that the hotel partners with. We will definitely be returning & can’t imagine staying anywhere else!

The property is beautiful but the terracotta/ orange sand that blew in from the desert was all over the floor in our room. Our luggage being wheeled in, also carried the orange sand into our room, so our socks and feet turned orange. When I went to use a very white towel, there was a dark “something” folded into it. I thought it was a bug. Thankfully when my husband checked, it turned out to be granola that wasn’t cleaned in their wash.

This hotel is a great choice for anyone that wants to relax in a luxurious space. All of their staff are very friendly and professional especially Margarita who gave us a lovely welcome on arrival to the property. Their food is also very delicious and freshly prepared. Another beautiful experience we had here was the sunset, its gorgeous. We will definitely come back here when next we visit Santorini. Love

On Santorini, everyone wants to see the sunset but all the places in Oia are so crowdy. Katharos Lounge is a quiet place where the locals can enjoy a veggie meal with a view on the sea. They also have a lot of cocktails... So just relax...
Tip: get there one hour before the sunset or make a reservation.
