Great start to our honeymoon
Reviewed By Roslund29My wife and I began our honeymoon here at Charisma Suites and we could not have picked a better starting point for the trip. Everything was incredible and the entire staff made us feel at home the entire time. From the amazing breakfast every morning to the late night room service, all of the food was delicious. The staff were always friendly and accommodating. Last but not least, the hotel was in a perfect location. Easily walkable to anything that you would want to do with a perfect view of the water and the sunset in the evening. We felt like we did not even have to leave our balcony to experience the views! We would highly recommend Charisma Suites to anyone traveling to Santorini.

Reviewed By smithyWestMidlandsI have just returned from 4 nights at this hotel and I can't fault it . We had room 7 which had amazing views . Loved having breakfast delivered Every morning to our balcony All the staff we came into contact with were really helpful and friendly Santorini is stunning and has to be seen to be believed It is expensive though so bring plenty of spending money There are some nice restaurants nearby and I also managed to walk into fira and back which at 7 months pregnant was no mean feat .

Amazing Hotel and Staff
Reviewed By Graham WA quite exceptional hotel right on the beach at the end of the beach strip. From the warm welcome to the back up help on departure should the flight be delayed or cancelled the staff at this hotel were exceptional. On reception, Stathis, Thavos, Euily & Georgia plus Agapi, Kostas and the rest of the Restaurant team always checking how things were with a smile. The food was top quality, the breakfast so fresh with constant replenishing and as others have said staff who remembered your drinks order. We had the evening buffet @ €25 pp such good value with different hot choices each night. Food is never piping hot that is the style everywhere but always hot enough with warm plates. The buffet came with free bottled water. The restaurant was staffed so well there was never a wait for a table or dirty plates and every effort was made to find a table that suited it was run with great organisation. Room keeping was top notch with towels changed daily and linen every two days couldn't ask for more. Reception made a point of saying if a problem occured to advise them straight away and they would sort it and they were true to their word with a minor issue we had plus followed it up throughout the week. The grounds were immaculate with none stop cleaning everywhere was so well kept. As mentioned by others the airport flight path crosses the front of the hotel so there is some plane noise and they appear low but the planes are infrequent and can be quite an interesting sight. Certainly no guests seemed bothered with it. Lots of freshwater pools around the complex with sunbeds to use plus plenty of beach sunbeds and umbrellas. Plus if you feel lazy a beach refreshment service from the restaurant with a linked button on each umbrella table. The adjacent strip has a multitude of bars and restaurants with some entertainment. Getting around the bus stop to Fira was a 10 minute walk, frequent services and only €1-60 so easy to visit the main places. All in all a very enjoyable stay at the Costa Grand and certainly one to consider for returning to in the future. Thank you all at the Costa Grand.

Wonderful, clean and super friendly
Reviewed By TerraExploratorMe and my girlfriends enjoyed a few days in this hotel and we were really impressed! The check-in was smooth and very friendly. The rooms were extremely clean, good size and tidy. We really enjoyed our balcony and terrace as well, where we had breakfast with a view. We also had a jacuzzi, ut never had the time to try it, so instead we used the hotel pool, which was perfect! Location is jsut a 10 minute walk from restaurants and bay area, and the reception could organize us transfers to mykonos town or quad rentals in minutes. I really hope to come back again one day, and I definitely recommend this place!

Avoid this hotel at all costs -it’s a dump!
Reviewed By Seaside27551018420We booked in feb 2021 having viewed the enticing pictures on Expedia. On arrival we found they were far removed from reality. On arrival we were sat down for 15 minutes whilst the manager explained the Covid rules. This included the fact that our breakfasts would be brought to our room because of Covid. We were then shown to our room. This was like going back 40 years to the 1st time we went to Greece. To say it was basic was an understatement. Curtains barely hanging on rails, broken wardrobe doors, a tiny bathroom with a huge hole in the ceiling revealing the sky outside. There was an overriding smell of damp, or dirty mop bucket water, it was that bad. We explained that this was not as it said on the website and the manager apologised and urged us to take the room anyway. We refused and asked for another only to be shown another room that had not been used for a week but also had not been cleaned in that time, with unmade beds from the previous occupants and a terrible smell coming from the bathroom, despite the fact that the windows were open wide , it was very off putting. We declined and asked for our money back. The manager then added that the cleaners had not been working and that most of the rooms are not ready, but if we waited for them to return at 10pm the room would be cleaned. We declined and we’re shown a 3rd room adjacent to the pool. Which is when we discovered that the sea ‘views’ pictures from the pool are obscured by 30ft buildings immediately adjacent to it. To get to the pool you have to walk out of the hotel and along the street. The sun beds are old and manky, and there was only 4 of them. The room we were then shown was equally as squalid and again we declined the offer and asked for a refund. The manager said he would ask his boss and rang him while we deliberated in what to do. On deciding to leave we where told we could not have a refund (£175) and we’re so disgusted with the whole experience that we decided to pick up our bags and leave. There was no offer of alternative accommodation so we used the hotel WiFi to book another hotel in nearby Naoussa, a much bigger, better resort. The next day the manager emailed us to say we could have had a stay at their sister hotel, Mr & Mrs White, near Naoussa, with the same deposit. But it was too late by then. All in all a sour experience and I wouldn’t recommend this hotel one bit, steer clear.

Beautiful boutique hotel, with room for improvement
Reviewed By WorldwidelostAfter check-in we went to our room above the reception. The looks of the room are good, stylish decorated. However the room itself is probably smaller than an average walk-in closet! No space to put your stuff away, therefore living from the suitcase all the time. The rainshower works perfect. The mattress is a bit dirty, (stains allover), probably as no protector has been used. Furthermore the mattress is way too soft and too small for above average height persons. Food in Esan restaurant is really good and tasty. Also the waiter, Gregory, who unfortunately quit, added to the positive vibe. Prices of restaurant food are fair. Prices of the (pool) bar are too high. Staff working during breakfast was very helpful and friendly. Unfortunately this can’t be said about the receptionist lady working during daytime. Every request seemed to be too much asked and resulted sometimes in useless discussions. Maybe she can be sent to a hospitality course, that might help. Overall location is good, nearby the center and plenty of restaurants around. Unfortunately at this moment a lot of noise from adjacent building activities.

Great stay but needs some improvements overall
Reviewed By izzieg2015Great stay but needs some slight improvements: We stayed for 5 nights on our honeymoon, it was our first visit to Mykonos. The hotel arranged pickup for us at the airport free of charge which was brilliant. The hotel manager was lovely and we got welcome drinks on arrival at the outside bar which is right on the beach! Our hotel room was across the road (we didn’t pay for a sea view room but a pool room) but is still part of the main hotel and nice and private. The room was very clean when we arrived although the pool could of done with a bit more of a clean. There are lots of mosquitos so keep the door closed and the aircon on - there are trees right outside so lots of flying bugs at night. Lovely room in general although at certain times there was no hot water. We also had a problem with the LED lights in the room as they kept tripping and flashing on and off in the middle of the night. Fresh bedding and towels every day and kept nice and clean by housekeeping. The breakfast isn’t great at all! No toaster! And not a lot of choice. Only really bread and pastries or undercooked bacon and beans. Eggs didn’t look appealing either. We didn’t eat in the hotel restaurant because of this. The toilets in the main part of the hotel are really dirty. 2 don’t have seats on and they don’t smell very nice! Definitely need improving as these are the toilets for the bar area. They have great music on all day which you can hear from the beach front! It does get quiet loud at night though although we couldn’t hear it from our room. Quite expensive for drinks but overall great service from the bar staff. Staff also attend to you if you use the beach sun beds for the day (first 3 rows from the back are free but right on the sea it’s 2 for €15!). We enjoyed our stay but some overall improvements need to be made in our opinion for it to really be a 5*

Excellent place to stay with small caveats
Reviewed By ZiNYC4.5/5 Excellent hotel. Great service. The town pyrgos is a bit far from the center of the town but the town has restaurants and markets. It’s also quite close to the ferry port. Would stay again but there’s some issues which prevented it from getting a 5 star. The suite we stayed at, the bathroom is teeny tiny, and I mean tiny. The shower room (separate from the bathroom) is amazing though. The couch cushion was a beanbag chair which wasn’t super comfortable. The private pool has jacuzzi but is not heated.

Poseidon Hotel & Apartments are the excellent accommodation choice while staying in Kos town. Ideally situated just a 10 minute walk from the center of town and near the Kos Marina, Poseidon offers fine facilities including air conditioned rooms, small gym and a wide range of summer entertainment. Look no further when it comes to choosing a Hotel in Kos !
Service unsurpassed, Not your aveage hotel
Reviewed By NonStopTravellerIf only all hotels had the culture of this one, holidays would be a much better experience. Ange and team offer a personal, differentiated service, where the default answer is "no problem, no worries ". Imagine a hotel where the Maitre D' takes the time to call each guest by their name , where the bar is closed when you arrive from airport at 2.45 am and they open the bar for you, where a young child needs hospital treatment and the hotel staff bring the child and parent to the hospital, where the Maitre D' checks you in for your flight and prints your boarding pass, where you check out at 12 noon but keep the room until 7.00 pm as you have an evening flight, where 2 members of staff make sure you get onto the right bus for the airport, where you can come in and they'll change the channel in the bar to watch the French Open if you wish, I saw all this and more last week . Thanks to all at Poseidon for an unforgettable holiday. Hope to be back one day with all the other repeat customers.

A little gem in Oia
Reviewed By laures368Our stay was absolutely delightful, the team and Dimitris in particular is extremely kind, genuine and helpful. Within 30 minutes of arriving, we were in our jacuzzi with a delicious local sparkling wine and a very generous fruit platter. They helped us organise our time here and had great recommendations. Location-wise this is perfect, a few minutes away from the center of Oia. Thank you so much again for this wonderful stay!
