Property is located in a prime location in Apia, facing the sunset. Limited food options but staff is wonderful in helping you book. Once in a lifetime opportunity to stay here, but my room I could hear the washing machine unfortunately. Additionally, very humid room so make sure air is on constantly. Near a lot of shopping, but the main area is about 10 min upstairs by foot. From parking spot also a 5-8 min walk.

Quiet and romantic hotel with picturesque views! Extremely unique hotel etched into the side of a cliff. There are a TON of steep stairs to access the property and rooms, this is not the hotel for you unless you are in shape. The staff were extremely eager to please and helpful. The food was also very very good. Would recommend in a heartbeat.

The receptionist told us that we would have to leave at 8:30 in the morning to catch our ferry and that they would have our breakfast ready by eight. Nothing was ready. We rushed out without having our breakfast very unorganized so me and some of the other guests had to rush out and the other receptionist was given an attitude saying that we should have left at seven and we told her that’s not what the receptionist told us the day before so they almost made us miss our ferry and left without breakfast

It was a very unique and pleasant experience, it started off wonderful as the Resort scheduled and booked the Taxi from the arrival at Santorini Airport (€50) one way. The driver was very kind and knowledgeable. The ride from the airport to the resort took about 20 minutes it was scenic but more village-like than expected. Upon arriving to the resort they had an additional person to carry our luggage’s to our room (which was very helpful since theirs a lot of stairs heading to the room). The receptionist was extremely polite and provided exceptional service 10/10. The resort was located in the romantic side of Oia (Sunset View) directly from the room. Breakfast was okay nothing too special but the servers were polite and served us well. Thank you Esperas for a wonderful stay.
