17 Jun Great hotel and lovely staff
I’ve just returned from a 3 night stay here on my own for a friends wedding on the island. Firstly, the staff, in particular Rania and Costos looked after me so well and are incredibly friendly! The room was clean, light and airy with a small balcony, fab bathroom, comfy bed and brilliant air con. Hanging space is plentiful and there’s a small fridge too. Breakfast looked gorgeous, however being gluten intolerant I could only have the eggs and the Greek yoghurt…. but these were yummy! Different eggs every day so some variety :)I didn’t get to use the pool area as I was out and about my entire trip, but it looks much bigger than nearby hotels!Travel is simple… a taxi from the airport was €20 each (I ended up sharing with 3 other travellers) but took 10 minutes. There’s a bus stop over the road to travel to Thira at €1.80…. however this is very busy so be prepared to stand! Costos will call you a taxi if required, I paid €15/20 to Thira. Also, there are many places to hire quad bikes near by… I wasn’t brave enough but maybe you will be!Local amenities… there are restaurants everywhere close by, along the beach front and on the streets back. You’ll pay around €6-8 for cocktails, and meals range from €8 upwards depending on what you fancy. As I’m gluten intolerant I thought I’d struggle, but found most local places to be helpful. Thank you Rania and Costos, I loved every second and you guys made it for me!Laura xx
