5 min walk to the center of Fira, but the place is quiet and calm. The receptionist is very welcoming and friendly. I recommend.

Our first choice was to book Pelican, Costa Marina's sister concern. But when we reached we were glad we booked Costa Marina (CM) instead as Pelican was full. CM is just a 2 minute walk from the main market square, has the most charming backdrop, clean white architecture, just the way I had pictured a typical Greek bed and breakfast. The staff is lovely - polite, helpful and very sweet. The only drawback is it has no sea view but then that is exactly what makes it affordable when one is travelling during peak season. I thought Greece was too hot in August - June might have been a better month to visit.

Santorini is no less than one is led to believe in reviews, blogs, books et all. It is the most romantic place I have ever been too. There is art and architecture all around and the natural setting of the island is awesome. I could sit for hours just looking the sea, the tourists, shop keepers selling wares and drinking coffee. An absolute must see for those who love travel and are romantics.

I stayed here a few nights with my girlfriends and found the hotel to be ok. The rooms are clean and comfortable. This is no five star hotel but it is in the heart of town and there is tons to do (nightlife, dinning, shopping) right in walking distance of the hotel. For the amount of time we spent in our hotel room which wasn’t much as there is tons to do I found the hotel to be acceptable.

This hotel was really wonderful. It was our favorite during our stay in Greece. Located off a side street in Fira, we would wake up to the sounds of birds and church bells. It is a short uphill walk to get to the shops, restaurants, and calderra. The staff is very friendly, the rooms are spacious and charming. The breakfast is also nice. I would highly recommend this hotel.
