"El Greco is a beautiful property conveniently located outside of Fira. It was close enough, a 10-minute walk to the city center and the bus depot for connections to other parts of the island, and far away enough that you can enjoy peace and quiet. The included breakfast buffet was great to fuel up for the day. Thank you for a lovely stay!"

"The location of the property is so amazing- we had the only family suite they have . Total 3 bathrooms ( 2 full and one 1/2) . Oia has tons of stairs. Older area and stairs are of all sizes . But it’s beautiful. We had very clean bedrooms. You’re in a cave so expect to see maintenance as best possible in that setting. They have done well. Location was lovely. The staff… I can say they are all amazing - wonderful people who really care about their guests. No pool - but for us not a problem as we realy wouldn’t have time as we wanted to see everything! It was my parents ( in their 70’s healthy) and my husband and I"
