Aura Suites

The property was absolutely stunning. I have recommended this hotel to several of my friends and family since being home. From arrival the staff are extremely welcoming and friendly - check you in, offer you a glass of wine, give you plently of information about the island, and take you to the room. The rooms are very modern and luxary vibe, clean, smells fresh when you enter them. The hot tub was lovely - I've seen a couple of comments about the hot tub not being HOT but who wants a really hot tub in hot weather? I seen it more as a warm pool It was around 17degrees when I was there end of April, with abit of wind and with really hot times of the day and it was lovely to get into. On the odd occasion whilst having a day in the hotel the reception girls would come and offer a glass of wine. Fantastic service They is no shop or food and drink on the hotel premises. However the staff will organise breakfast to be delivered for you to enjoy at your balcony. They will even organise takeaways in the evening to be delivered to you. They did also offer transfer service - however we used booking.com for our transfers as they were around half the price. The hotel is in good location. You can walk left out of the gate and find a little shop with snacks & drinks. And also a place for gyros Or you could walk right out of the hotel gate to lots of restaurants, amazing views, bars, souvenir shops & breakfast locations. The actual hotel itself is located in the middle of Santorini island - which was perfect - we hired a quad bike for 3 days and managed to travel to different points up and down the island several times. We seen everything. & They wasn't anything that we didn't like. It generally was a beautiful hotel. My ONLY suggestion - is to perhaps put a few sun loungers in the empty space on the top floor next to reception. This is only because we had to check out at 11am - however wasn't getting picked up till 4pm. © And whilst the hotel offered to held our luggage for us, they wasn't really anything for us to do for 5 hours unless we wanted to walk around shops for 5 hours... Would of been perfect with a few sun loungers / chill area that we could use after check out (they do have a big empty space for it) and I don't mean anything extravagant- just 4 sun loungers or something! However - this isn't fault of the hotel, I was already fully aware we had to check out at 11am when booking this hotel.
