弗斯精品華麗飯店及別墅(Phos the Boutique)

It’s taken over a year for me to write this review but the Fantasic experience is still fresh in our memory. I chose this Hotel and location to propose to my now wife and it was simply fantastic. The first thing needs to be the world class service from Theodosia Stratakou. She made everything possible and nothing was too much trouble but yet professional enough to us the space and privacy we needed. The next thing has to be the room , facilities , the spectator view and the stunning sunsets. My now wife cried when we were entered our room for the first time. It was that impressive. The food is some of the best food if not the best I have ever eaten which is served on a platform the floats above the private pool. With the sun setting perfectly as the back drop it is possibly one of the best setting on the planet to pop the big question. We are now happily married and I am so happy that I chose this hotel to start an once journey. Thank you to all the staff especially Theo and hopefully we will return again someday. Ps the cocktails are awesome

Phos is an exquisite adult only hotel. The rooms and outdoor private pools are the ultimate in relaxation. The location is perfect, looking down over the cauldera, beautiful sea, and great sunsets. There is no restaurant on site, nor any near by, which we thought might be an issue, but absolutely wasn't. They have an incredible menu with room service, so you can dine outdoors on your dining room table under the stars. The staff is exceptional, and goes well out of their way to ensure every need is met. Breakfast is delivered every morning per your choices the night before, and was a feast of delights. We LOVED our stay at Phos, and can't wait to go back.

Quel séjour fabuleux !! Nous avons occupé la Honeymoon suite 105 pour 3 nuits. Un hotel luxueux en tout point. La localisation est parfaite, un endroit calme avec une magnifique vue sur Oia, Fira, l’Ile de Thirasia et vue imprenable sur le volcan. Le personnel a rendu notre séjour inoubliable, ils sont au petit soin, à n’importe quelle heure de la journée ou de la nuit ils sont la pour vous ! Ils ont parfaitement organisé et orchestré notre demande en mariage, merci tout particulièrement à Anna qui a contribué à ce jour mémorable. La nourriture est excellente, et les quantités sont copieuses, nos félicitations au chef ! Si vous avez envie de passer un séjour agréable, calme, luxueux et mémorable, je vous conseille vivement cet hotel dans le village de Akrotiri. Carla & Julien

Best holiday ever. My boyfriend surprised me with this trip for my 30th birthday and it also turned out to be a surprise proposal. From the moment we arrived at the hotel we had the best service. We were made to feel as if nothing was too much trouble and we instantly felt relaxed. We stayed in the honeymoon suite which was just amazing. I have never had a view like it and the sunset was like nothing I have seen before. The room had plenty of space and was immaculate. The pool area also had so much room and again was super clean. We had lunch and dinner in the hotel a couple of times and the food was lovely. Highly recommend the chicken tacos for lunch! I read some reviews to say that the staff come in unannounced. This never happened to us. The staff always knocked and then asked if it was ok for them to come in. The service was of the highest standard. My partner had been messaging Theo from the hotel to arrange the proposal beforehand. She was so helpful and made sure everything ran so smoothly for him on the evening. I cannot thank her and the rest of the staff enough for making that night a moment we will never forget. The location of the hotel was quite remote but that suited us - we rented a car one day and went to Fira and Oia. Both lovely areas but quite crowded with hotels and cars - so coming back to Phos made us appreciate just how relaxing it was. We have both said how much we would want to come back to the hotel. I would highly recommend!

I don't even know where to begin with this hotel, it was an absolute first class five star experience. The front desk lady Theo was the epitome of professionalism and helpfulness. She helped my family and I book a rental car, reservations for dinner in Fira and Oia, and booking spa appointments. Having breakfast delivered to our room in the mornings were something I have never experience and it was absolutely amazing and first class. Our infinity pool was a dream come true, the water was warm and the view was absolutely stunning. The only thing that was missing from this magical place was a fun bar and restaurant. We did also have some issues with loud construction next to our room, but when we told the front desk they right away took care of it. Overall the experience was absolutely incredible and I cannot wait to return.

The location is remote and away from the crowds. We rented a car to explore but enjoyed the peaceful setting at the resort. The room was very nice and the ocean view was amazing. Not a better place anywhere to watch the sunset. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful, really top notch. The included breakfast was great every day. All other meals that we ordered were above any that we had at other restaurants in town. I would highly recommend this hotel.

This hotel is a scam. Avoid it. I am used to go to very nice hotel and I have really no issues to pay for quality (I recommend by the way the excellent Liostasy in IOS). I recommend to go to SLH hotels where you have never bad surprises. I came here with my son and paid 1800 euros for 2 nights. I am discussed to see the poor quality of this hotel. It is not even worth 250 euros a night. The woman at the reception is very aggressive, the staff has never worked in a 5 star hotel. Everything is a shame. It is a trap for tourists. The quality of the materials is so so, there is no confort on the terrasse, my room had a view on the parking (yes I paid 900 euros for a room which had a view on the parking. Avoid it. The rooms are not cleaned when you leave the hotel in the afternoon, nobody really takes care of you. I am very angry to have been trapped in such an hotel for such a price (I have already been many times to santorini and I can recommend the princess hotel or the rica Bella). The manager will tell you that I wanted to be upgraded but that is not true. I was so mad when I arrived at the hotel, the woman at the reception said you have to pay first if you want to see the room. Do not listen to them, there are so many nicer hotels in santorini half the price. This a tourist trap.

Terrible

If you want to be in the center of the shopping and be close to many people, do not choose Hotel Phos. But if you are looking for man-made and natural beauty, calm, and some of the most exquisite views you can imagine, you choose Hotel Phos. Phos means light in Greek and the combination of beautiful breeze coming off the water and the abundant sunlight are ideal. The accommodations are elegant in their simplicity, and we chose a suite that had its own infinity pool. Amazing! The staff was attentive, kind, and professional, and certainly greatly enhanced the quality of the stay. Anna and Katerina took care of our every need and are a big part of what makes Phos special. And the views are just spectacular. Photos just don't do it justice. Two small potential challenges of note: First, there are low barriers between the individual rooms outside areas which could be a problem sound-wise if you have neighbors who don’t accommodate to the unique circumstance. Also, if you are traveling to the more populated areas that have shopping, or restaurants off-site, you are either spend a good amount of time and a small fortune on transportation, or you rent a car. Be aware, however, that the roads are narrow, and can feel a little treacherous. Overall, the experience at Phos hotel was the high point of our visit to Greece.
