40th Wedding Anniversary Celebrations.
Just returned from a fantastic stay at El Greco Resort. Al the staff from Check In, Housekeeping, Bar Service and Breakfast went out of their way to make us feel special. We celebrated our 40th Wedding Anniversary and couldn’t have enjoyed it more. We stayed in Room 320 which was spacious with a large bathroom and shower. The Balcony overlooked Swimming Pools either side and had wonderful views of the Sunrise over the Sea in the morning. We were lucky to see the volcano celebrations directly opposite the hotel on our wedding anniversary. The Sunset opposite the hotel in September and October is the best view on the Island according to a number of people we spoke to in Thira. Bus terminal is a 10 minute walk away, and a further 5 minutes you are in the heart of Thira. Would highly recommend hotel and location.

Felt like a large corporate hotel
Pros- Large room which was clean and comfortable with nice outside sitting area. Spa was reasonably priced and good massage. Good selection of drinks at pool restaurant. Check in staff takes you and luggage with a golf cart to your room. Convenient location to walk to Fira (5 min walk) and plenty of parking for rental cars. Cons- Very old bathroom needed remodeling. Mold and mildew around tub and shower curtain. Multiple pools but literally most of the sun beds were taken with "towels" by other guests by 7:30am and completely full by 8am except for the pool in the far back which we didn't discover until the last day. If you are expecting a leisurely day at the pool, this isn't happening if you aren't an early riser. No view of caldera from room, need to exit the resort and cross busy street to see it. Breakfast was ok but VERY crowded (again look for back pool area as there was a second breakfast area there that was better by the spa).

5 stars all round! Beautiful stay!😊
Amazing hotel! 5 Stars all round! Me and my friend had a 5 night stay here & we wasn't disappointed. From start to finish we had a great stay and experience. The hotel is very clean, rooms are spacious and cleaned daily. The sunloungers are so comfy but a heads up you may have to get up early to get the best beds. However, we didn't have any trouble getting one later as they do have spare loungers to pull out and place where you like. We stayed here bed & breakfast and the breakfast was lovely. It was the same variety daily however, just enough for what you need. The hotel is located about a short 10 minute walk into Fira. There are plenty of resteraunts and little shops in Fira. I'd definitely recommend going to these day & night. The bus stop is also a 10 minute walk and these come very regulary to visit the different towns. We used this every day and only cost us 2 euro each way. All in all this was a beautiful stay😊

Lovely hotel
We have just spent 5 nights at El Greco and we have been really happy with our stay. The hotel is immaculate, always clean and smells amazing! The staff are lovely and attentive. We were bed & breakfast and the breakfast met our needs. Lots of choice for what you need first thing. Rooms were spacious and always cleaned to a high standard. Fira is only a short 10/15 minute walk away. Bus station is the same distance with buses to different towns such as Oia, Kamari & Perissa every 10-30mins or so which are usually only around €2 each trip. I would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in the Fira area.
