Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
Really relaxing ambient atmosphere. The junior suite was exquisite; housekeeping came discreetly whilst I was at breakfast. I hadn't noticed the umbrella shade was broken however, a member of staff apologised and fixed it immediately. A healthy, delicious breakfast was served and varied daily. Each room has it's own whirlpool and you are concealed from your neighbours. The view is out of this world and to see the sunset at the end of the day from my room is something I will not forget. The staff are absolutely fantastic and cater to your needs.
A wonderful place!
Everywhere was pristine and the staff were friendly and welcoming! It was the perfect place for rest and relaxation! About a 10 min walk to the local food/drinks but we enjoyed it. The killer hill outside the hotel isn’t for the faint hearted.
Breakfast was gorgeous each morning and we tried lots of new Greek cuisine!
Accommodation is perfect. Rooms are amazing. Private pool was excellent. Excellent spot on the centre of the island. Bus stop only 10 minute walk away and you can walk around the massive hill so don’t rely on google maps for that. Highly recommend for romantic getaway.
Lovely staff , stunning location nice and quite but a short walk around the corner to Pygros bars and restaurants.
Highly recommend and will be looking to book this venue in the future
It was an amazing trip with great hospitality and views. They could work on making stairs for the guests so that they can climb up safely and walk to the town, and provide a good working iron instead. Breakfast could have been better with more options.
