The Ducato di Oia Boutique Hotel in Santorini had some beautiful aspects, like the lovely patio and the plunge pool, which provided great relaxation. However, the room had some dangerous steps that were not well-marked, making it hard to navigate. We also had an unpleasant experience due to cigarette smoke seeping into our room from the staff break room nearby and garbage bags stacked right outside our door, which was odd. Despite these issues, the location was undeniably beautiful.

Sweet Home Hotel in Athens was my favorite accommodation during the trip. It had so much charm, and the people there were incredibly welcoming. The room offered a marvelous view of the Acropolis, which was spectacular. The only downside was that it was a bit on the small side, but overall, the experience was delightful with a great neighborhood to explore.

The Evening Neighborhood Food Walk was an excellent experience. We had the guide all to ourselves, allowing for a personalized tour of the local cuisine. It was a delightful way to end the day.

The Knossos Palace Experience was enjoyable, especially with the cultural and historical significance. However, it was a bit disappointing to learn that many of the best art treasures were moved to a museum. A visit to the museum would have complemented the experience nicely.

The Delos & Rhenia Sailing Cruise & Lunch was a terrific experience. It provided a unique way to explore the areas, with lunch being particularly good on this cruise. It was a highlight of our cultural experiences on the trip.

I really enjoyed the Ancient Athens Acropolis & Mythology Walk despite a little bit of rain. It was a great way to be immersed in the rich history of Athens, and the guide was knowledgeable and engaging.

An absolutely beautiful hotel!! The views and breakfast served to our room made our stay so very special!! We enjoyed the suite concept as it gave us more room for the 2 of us ( loved that there was 2 baths and 2 bedrooms!) The staff was extremely friendly and assisted us with taxi rides and directions for getting into Fira for shopping and dinner. We we totally recommend this hotel!

We were only at this hotel for one night. It was convenient for shopping and for walking to the Monastiraki Market. But the hotel services were nothing special. When we arrived around 11am our room was not ready and we were told that we would be contacted via email when our room was ready. We were NEVER contacted so we had to check back with the hotel several times to check when our room would be ready. The hotel does not have Whats App which was a negative.

Extremely friendly staff at this hotel - they were able to assist us with car services (taxi) to several of our excursion meeting points. Our room was clean with plenty of space. The one negative was the fact that it was not explained to us how to change the temperature on the AC unit so the first couple nights were very hot in our room. We suggest that the staff review the AC room unit mechanics to all guests when they check into their room.

Good airport hotel.

This is such a pretty property! It’s a big place with lots of variety, but still personal in its service. Shout out to the front desk team including Kristina who welcomed and oriented us to Paros. The room was looking out at the pool, clean, on the small side, but with good amenities including a fabulous heavy duty clothing steamer which we loved for our linen! We used the pool and the beach, both with comfortable lounge chairs that are light enough to move around. The sea is warm this time of year) so swimming was nice, and there was beverage/food service at both. Yamis and his team at both restaurants made us feel at home, starting with our welcome drink. Breakfast was absolutely amazing - you order small plates off a huge menu, and get as many items as you want. Terrific coffee. Dinner at their restaurant called Rada exceeded our expectations. Our two servers, both named Katarina, took great care of us. The food was outstanding.

Location is in Imerovigli which is a good alternative to Oia. You can cab or bus to Oia for one day, but here you can walk to 2 villages. The front desk was always available and helpful. We had the Cave Suite with hot tub, used the tub once. This room doesn’t overlook the caldera, so upgrade if you want that. The room is clean, there’s a good size refrigerator and hot water kettle.. The bed was comfortable, A/C strong, shower good, robes and slippers provided - which is nice. There is no separate hair conditioner, so bring your own if you use it. They only provide 2 water bottles when you check in, and it would be great if they provided 2 per-day. The pool is decent size and right next to the bar. Breakfast was terrific, and we had dinner in the hotel restaurant which was quite good with fabulous sunset views.

We hung out at the beach hotel. Didn’t do this, didn’t have the time.

We had ideas from KimKim but did our own thing based on the hotel recommendations. We only were out for 4 hours.

We didn’t do this.

We had some guidance from KimKim, but the hotel took care of the car rental, gave us a map, and walked us though the options.

This was cancelled due to high winds. But they called the day before to let us know, which we appreciated.

This was terrific. We made 3 snorkel stops. There were only 24 of us on the catamaran, plenty of space to find a spot you like. The beverages were limited to wine, beer, soda. The food was terrific and plentiful. The captain and the crew were attentive, professional, and fun.

Alex picked up us and since we were the only people on the “caravan” tour that day, we went all over Santorini with Alex in his jeep. We covered a lot of the island, had a nice beach break, a very light dinner at an authentic restaurant but one that had absolutely no ambience, and a beautiful sunset view before we went back to town.

We just used this time to walk to the next town and relax. The self guided instructions weren’t especially helpful.

This was one of the best food tours we’ve ever been on! Lena was fabulous, we went to 7 places, we ate and drank for 4 hours. The food choices and venues were so good! It as my birthday, so Lena surprised me with candles in the Loukoumades (fried dough balls with honey syrup, served with ice cream!). Highly recommend this.
