+: What we enjoyed: 1. Location - the highest point of the island and much quieter than Fira where the cruise ships come in. The view from the room and pool area were completely unobstructed of the Caldera, approximately 1000 feet above see level. 2. The staff greeted us very warmly and were expecting us. Since this is a small boutique hotel, you become friends with the staff. Sharef and Cornelia were just a few that went above and beyond. 3. Small restaurant bargrill near the pool was so convenient. We stayed one day on property due to view and service. 4. They suggested a 5 hour Catamaran Tour of the sunset at ~160 Euros per person, which included transportation and dinner. Swam in thermal core of volcano and other interesting spots. The greek food cooked by the staff was excellent! Highly recommend! If not a great swimmer, they have noodles for floating. We met very nice guests from all over the world! 5. The included breakfast is very good and ample, especially when eating on your own deck.
-: Not a complaint but a reality to stay at a cliffside hotel in Santorini, just expect to walk a lot of steps. I don't mind because I can eat more fried Feta with glazed honey. Our room on very bottom, was 123 steps to the top. I don't think I can add a photo to describe this view thus so worth it!
