Aegean Sea Holidays from NZ$1,223

excellent breakfast and location.

Good hotel. Lovely cave styled rooms

Great hotel with a great location and right on the beach front, friendly & helpful staff, always kept clean and tidy which is much appreciated. The breakfast could be slightly better (a somewhat limited choice). It says that there's a gym and sauna, but there was no sign of it! It may be a case of they open up more as the season gets busier (as we went in April/early May). Also, there only seemed to be one restaurant but there's two listed on the page (again, this may have open when the summer season approaches).

George, the house manager, was extremely warm, welcoming and helpful. He really made the stay more memorable with his suggestions and information. I had the terrace room which had an unobstructed view of the caldera and stunning views of the sun setting behind Therasia Island. You'll want to walk down the stairs by the Kameni Bar (painted red) opposite the Metropolitan Church. From Fira bus stop, go up the cobbled street (5 min). Centrally located and yet isolated from the crowds because it's halfway down the caldera. Spacious cave rooms kept immaculately clean by George and the house staff.

The staff was friendly and very responsive to any requests. The views from the property are beautiful and the surrounding town has many dining and shopping options.
