El Greco Resort And Spa

For travellers who do not wish—or are unable—to pay the high prices of the charming and romantic hotels in Oia, El Greco Resort seems to be one of the best alternatives in Santorini. The location is excellent, facing the caldera and offering beautiful views. It is even possible to watch the sunset just across from the hotel. Fira is also within a comfortable walking distance. The rooms are somewhat dated, but comfortable and very clean. As it was our daughter’s birthday, we were kindly given an upgrade, and our room included a pleasant private terrace where we could relax. The resort has several swimming pools, which is a major advantage, particularly for families. Breakfast was satisfactory, although nothing particularly special. The front desk staff were polite, kind and helpful. The breakfast team were professional, but sometimes appeared impatient, possibly because they were clearly overloaded. The concierge was courteous, but unfortunately seemed poorly prepared to provide useful guidance or assistance. Overall, El Greco Resort is a comfortable, well-located and practical choice for families or groups visiting Santorini.

The hotel is beautiful, clean and the staff are just incredible. We did half board with breakfast and dinner. But next time we would do self catering as the restaurants in Fira square are incredible and the views just breathtaking. If you can get somewhere close in waking distance to the main square then it’s perfect as you will have everything on your door step. The best Italian voted in Santorini and it did not disappoint, it’s called Cacio Pepe. Santorini is the most beautifulest place I’ve ever visited and I can’t wait to go back

Staying here currently and booked on a whim through TUI holidays and my goodness what a hidden gem in the heart of FIRA. Not sure how this is an official rated 3* by TUI, however, it's one of the cleanest, spread out hotel with impeccable grounds and hotel rooms. Hotel reception also smells amazing and staff are so attentive. Drinks in hotel are typically much higher in price, but there is a huge supermarket a short 5-10 minute stroll from hotel. This hotel is also part of the same family and they also own ORAMA, this was also a contender but came in over a thousand pound more, so pleased we trusted out for and saved that on holiday spends, book it, you won't regret it. We stayed in rooms 20+ which o overlooks it's only pool with access to its own breakfast offering, which is lovely and peaceful ☺️
