This property was beautiful. It was on the quieter side of the island. The blooming, colorful flowers set the romantic tone for couples. Nestled in quaint little cafes literally across from the hotel. Great food with a very chilled vibe. Take a little walk and you will find salons, motor scootets snd buggy rentals, and of course delicious authentic greek offerings.

It was lovely staying here. The place was clean. It was good for my family of 5. My 3 kids had a very fun time in the pool. There’s a good restaurant in the hotel. There’s also a few others around the hotel. There about 3 souvenir shops and a mini market. It’s a peaceful and quaint place to stay at. It’s about a 20 minute drive to Fira. 10 minutes to black sand beaches. I recommend it and I would come back here.

Pool and hotel grounds were maintained well. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was good enough. Daily housekeeping was great to have. Hot water was also great. The main problem was the guest room; toilet was broken and even though was reported the same day of arrival it was never fixed. Safe inside room not attached to the ground or wall. Door to balcony was closed and not accesible. AC was didn’t keep up, Flying bugs in room constantly Bathroom was small and not comfortable Overall value for price was lacking. This property has a lot of potential but needs a lot of preventive maintenance in guestrooms

Gateway to Archeological Akritiri.
flying standby to attend the Santorini Film Festival and arrived a day early. Fortunately they had a room available for us and the location was very easy to find. A nice corner in the center of town with lots of fun things to see and walk around. Also not far from the lighthouse at the southern tip of the island which is a destination for sunset watchers. It is also the gateway to the Akritiri archeological site which is a MUST see. We had a delightful time. A nice breakfast and a visit to one of the more remote areas of the island. A very pleasant experience and a nice discovery.

We will stay here on every trip to Santorini!!!!!
Choosing to stay at this resort for our first trip to Santorini was perfect. I was a little hesitant before I decided just because I would see on the map that Akrotiri was on the opposite side of the island from the most popular Oia. But after going, we quickly realized how small the island is and this was actually a great thing because Oia and Fira are so packed with tourists and traffic that we enjoyed escaping back to Akrotiri after a long day of exploring. Plus, there are some SPECTACULAR views en route to the hotel. Views of the Caldera that everyone would pull over to take photos of and it's just minutes from the hotel. A nice little secret that those staying in Oia aren't aware of. We felt lucky. It's also very close to SantoWines where we enjoyed a beautiful sunset wine tasting of 18 different wines with a delicious cheese platter while overlooking the caldera (less than 50 euro total for two, make a reservation for 6:30 to catch the sunset!). About the hotel, this was honestly the most beautiful resort we saw on our entire trip to Santorini (with the exception of those extremely expensive infinite pool caldera view Oia hotels). If you're looking for that postcard view of the white buildings on the hill, you'll need to stay in Oia. We came to the realization quickly that those hotels are way over our budget so we were so happy to find Paradise Resort. Equally as beautiful but with a different charm.

Beautiful hotel, wonderful staff
When we first got to the hotel we were greeted with a drink and friendly staff. Check in was extremely easy and relaxing. The room was clean and bright, and everything was close by. The pool was amazing and you could order food/drinks from the restaurant to have by the pool. In the mornings there is a free breakfast/coffee bar which we had every morning. The staff was so wonderful, we were greeted every time we arrived back at the hotel and made to feel at home. It felt more like you were staying with family than at a hotel. Red beach is a 20 minute walk and from there they have water taxis that will take you to white beach and black beach. Over all we had a wonderful stay and didn't want to leave but will definitely be coming back next time we are in Santorini

Akrotiri best.
If you need to stay in this suburb and end of Santorini (Akrotiri ) this is a great clean and nice spot. Not recommended as a location otherwise. Great cafe / restaurants right across the road bus stop and red beach close by.

Staff Support
They have a nice pool area. However, front staff was not very friendly. When we got there in the afternoon our room was not ready. So, we waited in the lobby. The next day when the housekeeper knocked our door we were still in bed and asked her to give us a couple of minutes to get out of the room. When we came back from sight seeing the room was still not done. We asked someone on the front desk if they could do our room. We were told rudely that the room had already been done. I then calmly asked if we could have some fresh towels. A moment later while I was at the pool a woman stands in front of me and scorned me for asking to have my room clean so late in the day (4:00 pm). So, she left the towels in the room but they were dirty and rough.

Wedding stay in Santorini
I originally booked the hotel for 2 people which later a third member of our party added an additional request to stay with us, meaning we would have 2 rooms. When we arrived and unfortunately due to an earlier arrival of a large group and the unexpected additional volume of the group they gave one of our rooms to the group without our approval. This resulted in 3 of us sharing a room. The new room they gave us had a sofa bed and a king size bed. The room was comfortable and accommodating but I can't say the same for the sofa bed.
