It was one of the most amazing hotels I’ve ever stayed at and trust me we have done our share of traveling.
Also, my brother had his wedding there and it was top notch service and so very elegant. It made my husband and I want to get married again !
I will recommend La Maltese to everyone going to Santorini! ❤️

It was one of the best stay for me. The room is clean, big comfortable and quiet, plus we had a little pool on our balcony just for us. The view from the restaurant is to die for. It is literally breathtaking spot and we just never got tired of having an amazing breakfast there five mornings in a row! The staff are very nice, friendly and competent. You can ask them any questions they are always willing to help. Definitely recommended

Reasonably priced stay for Santorini however we didn’t have the best stay
- the location wasn’t as close to Fira as anticipated so we’d have to take a bus to get to the larger terminal of buses. However some things were walking distance like good restaurants
- the service wasn’t great, the front desk man wasn’t helpful with recommendations at all
- the room wasn’t super comfy
- the toilet had a horrible smell on the second day like something in the plumbing was backing up
- the area overall didn’t have a great view and the pool wasn’t as noice as the pictures
- the one good thing was the restaurant attached had a 5 star breakfast with an amazing view!

We stayed here after getting a last minute deal and were so impressed with everything. Our room was upgraded, everything was modern, clean and new. The staff were friendly and super helpful. The location meant we were away from the crowds of Fira but close enough that we walked everywhere.

One of the best properties we have stayed not just in this trip but ever, and we have been travelling for many years. Brilliant location, amazing sunset, great facilities and amenities. Staff starting with the manager Costa and everyone that works there were simply brilliant! Lots of food options and things to see nearby. Pool and Buddha bar were terrific and so was the American/continental breakfast. We are so glad we decided to stay here rather that the busy terrible mess that is Oia. Highly recommend staying here, can’t wait to come back!

They need to be more specific on the type of room people is getting specially when they post pictures showing a nice view and you get to your room to a remote location and no view whatsoever ever.

Location is just perfect and the service was topnotch. The staff made us feel so special and well taken care of. The views from the restaurant is to die for, no wonder why a lot of tourists in the island actually go out of their way to visit the area and the bar for the sunset. Staying here gave
us the full Santorini fantasy. Highly recommended.

The room carried a heavy smell of smoke and was tucked back in a dark corner of the property. The check in desk is tucked away from the actually estate property itself. Only highlight is the Buddha Bar. We left after our first night and found other accommodations.

A bag was stolen from our room, when we went out for the whole day. So had a bad experience. Even reporting it did not make any difference to the management. Extreme apathy from them.

Not a 5 star hotel or experience
Our room was dark/dingy not what I was promised via email (2 times). We were shown another room but it was not large enough for 4. I specifically asked about views of the room via emails w the property and was assured we’d get the room w windows and views of the sea from a balcony. We didn’t get a room w a balcony. Our jetted tub was filled w debris and insects and we couldn’t even turn it on.
On Wed we woke up to a flooded room after a storm and our luggage and contents got wet. We also lost power for the remainder of our stay. There was no electricity, air conditioning, or hot water. Someone came to fix the electricity twice but we continued to have none. We relayed all of this to the manager who was understanding and who told us there were no other rooms available for us to move to. We had to look for a new hotel.
There were no amenities you’d expect in a 5 star hotel: no tissues, no telephone to call the front desk, and only one trash bin in the toilet room. We learned about the shared lobby only after letting the property manager know we were checking out early. When we saw the lobby, I noticed a much nicer suite that looked more like the room I booked online. At one point the restaurant manager I spoke w on Tues on arrival said that the photos I was sent via email reflect “a combination of many different rooms” which makes no sense for a link that specified and listed amenities along with images: https://www.lamaltese.com/la-maltese-estate/ (Suite w jetted tub).
