We wait all year for our vacation and our greatest wish is to have an epic time. We want to experience exceptional luxury and personalized service during our stay. This is why our choice of hotel is extremely important. I personally do extensive research on location of hotel; amenities offered and of course review of the resort. I was so elated when I arrived to Astro Palace and Elpida showed me to my room. The room exceeded my expectations. It was absolutely gorgeous, spacious and the view OMG. I had a balcony and a breathtaking view of the ocean and the gorgeous pool. The next factor to an impressive and memorable vakay is the staff at the hotel. This team works tirelessly to create a haven where the guests can relax and thoroughly enjoy themselves. It really helps knowing that there is an onsite restaurant and oh yes room service. I want to personally thank the team of hospitality people at the hotel for adding that extra special everything resulting in unforgettable memories during my stay. Kostas, Dimitri and Ahmet food and beverage team could not be nicer. Facts. Thanks you guys for outstanding service and the best cocktails on the island of Santorini. When you go to this magical place, be sure to meet Kostas. He is superlative in describing all the food on the menu as well as the delish and incredible breakfast the hotel serves each morning. And yes it can be included in the room rate. It just doesn’t get any better than this. Also Kostas is extremely knowledgeable on restaurant recommendations. He is amazing and we were so happy and lucky to have met him. My room was situated on the first floor . The bathroom was so cool in design with all these sweet features. You can take a bath, rain shower or handheld shower. So very cool. Thank you Tatiana for making my room sparkle. If there was an Oscar for cleanliness, she wud receive a lifetime award. OMG. so deep clean. The pool and the atmosphere of Astro Palace is perfection in itself. However it is the staff that contributes makes this place so amazing and magical. Now the jewels of this hotel are the girls at reception. They will not stop until all guests are completely satisfied and all smiles. They will enhance your experience with all that they do. I didn’t want to leave these girls are all amazing. Elpida, Katerina and Marilena thank you for being so nice and accommodating. They are so super special. I will have to say that Elpida made my stay at the Astor Palace every bit of specialness. Thank you Elpida you are truly a princess of everything good. And the other greatness of this hotel is the location. A sweet short walk to the center of Fira, yet far enough not to hear all the hustle and bustle of the night life. We love that sound but sometimes you need a teeny bit of quiet. I can’t say enough of the hotel, beautiful and a 5 star staff.
