Senses Boutique Hotel

What a beutiful hotel and view to the, amazing, crater and to the beautiful white buildings of the island! Amazing service and breakfast served to the room! With a great varieaty of food served fresh and with amazing timing! And a special thanks to the amazing host Naiana, very helpfull and kind going out of her way to ensure everything was to our liking!

The room was on the small size but would be typical for Santorini. The breakfasts delivered to the room each morning were delightful. Lots of variety and more food than you can eat. The pool is very nice and appears to be larger than most. Staff were very friendly and accommodating.

I arrived at the hotel a few hours before check in - The chef a lovely lady welcomed me but there was no manager to check me in. She called someone and then I called Tamas I think the manager who said I was early. I said I'm extremely tired and hungry (as I left after work and meal on the Aegean was terrible) I need a room to shower and some food. He said he will look into it. Staff member Vangelis arrived about 30 mins after who gave me the purple room (2), n said I would get a breakfast (not full) however will not get a breakfast on last day. Had a shower (dodgy) had bfast 2 fried eggs on bacon bowl of fruit of coffee Greek pastry with n a jar of orange juice. All great. The two ladies working there are very very hard working and fantastic 5*. Downside no kettle in room (if you don't give kettle don't leave teabags, cos we can't get hot water out of the nespresso machine (which I tried) had to go down to the reception if you need hot water. Tap water is salty so no chance that making a cuppa😂. Unlike most I'm not a coffee drinker as it gives me palpitations!!! therfore missed having a cuppa. Take a universal socket hotel don't provide. 7 days was too long. Felt the entire island was exhausted and fed up of serving tourists. They didn't like being asked questions n assumed we knew everything. Some very rude and some not bothered either way. It left a bad taste. Won't be going back to that island. Not all what's its cracked up to be. Been there done that! Ticked the box.

We had a very relaxed and chilled time in the Green Room - which met all of our needs. Only downsides were the constant noise from the jacuzzi at night (kept us awake for 2 nights) - the heat of it is very intermittent and only hot 70% of the time. The day staff are not always about if required and generally can be found chatting to the owner of the local shop (Jimmys). It’s only a 2 min walk away but can be an issue if you need anything. When found, they are always very helpful and sort all of your needs. Highlights are location, views, breakfast and the pool. We would go back but after looking around realised there was slightly better for the money maybe.
