    An Unforgettable Stay
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Villa Euphoria with Pool and Sea view
    • Stayed 3 nights

    From the moment we arrived we were greeted by smiling faces and brilliant service from every member of staff. The room was stunning, and beds comfy, with the standout feature of the hotel being the private pool in each room. There is also a large communal pool with a van serving drinks,snacks and meals throughout the day. Its a small hotel with only 10 rooms I believe so every interaction feels personal. On that note, the staff are at hand basically 24/7 via WhatsApp and can handle any queries or even organise transport and activities on your behalf. Breakfast was worth the value that you paid, 2 courses from each option on a set menu with juice and coffee was more than enough to satisfy. It can also be ordered to your room to be enjoyed in private. The only thing would be we recommend hiring a car as the walk into the famous Oia town with other forms of transport (buses/taxi ranks) is all uphill and on the road. We only stayed 3 nights but wish we had the time to stay longer!

    Beautiful location and amazing property. We stayed in one of the private pool rooms and the view was beautiful. The hospitality was great. We were welcomed by Paros and were also accommodated well during checkin. Very staff were very hospitable! They had great recommendations and were very welcoming.

    I can’t think of anything that I didn’t like!

    We had an amazing stay here! The staff were super friendly and made us feel so welcome and at home. They helped us with anything that we would possibly need, setting up reservations and taxis for us, giving us recommendations for food and things to do. I enjoyed coming back to the retreat every time just for the warm welcome! The breakfast was amazing (very filling). The view was great, could see the sunrise and sunset just from our room, which also had a private pool! 10/10 stay, would recommend :)

    Eleni and Nico were amazing hosts. They totally went above and beyond, very attentive and happy to sort out all sorts of arrangements. The hotel was gorgeous, just close enough to Oia to make it easy to get aroudn, but far enough away form the throngs of tourists. A total oasis and with an amazing view and sunsets every night. The rooms were immacutalte and beautifully designed. Honestly, i could not ask for a more relaxing and convenient holiday.

    Nothing apart from the pool being a little cold.

    Eleni and Panos were very helpful to us. Eleni sat down with us upon checking in to give us lots of reccomendations on areas to visit and excellent restaurants. It really helped to guide us for our few days in santorini. The villa was very clean and spacious. The views were also very beautiful. We would defintely come here again!

    Nothing. The stay was amazing. The location on a hill so steep walk to Oia centre but doable for the agile. Alternatively you can get taxi or transport

    Room amazing, staff amazing, pool amazing .. can’t rate highly enough. The staff continually ask how they can help further.. arranging transport, communicating quickly via Whattsapp.. nothing was too much. They are even slick enough to note when you leave or have breakfast and clean your room when appropriate discreetly
