La Maltese Estate

Pros +

• Excellent condition, clean and cozy. Felt at home.
• The Estate is extremely stylish and clean. Perfect location to everything! Highly recommend - would definitely come back
• At first, I wasnt sure to stay here due to the previous reviews and ratings but when I gave it a go and spend my first night, I didnt want to leave and requested to extend my stay. I had to change rooms as they were fully booked but OMG this property is incredible! I honestly didnt understand why La Maltese got such rating but the manager mentioned that they opened up while part of the property was under construction a year ago but luckily for me, its all done to a perfection. Room was so nice, spacious and had everything extravagant traveler might need. The quality of bed, shower and appliances were impeccable. Great wifi speed, I could do video calls with friends and family, USB ports next to bed to charge the phone and so much more. It was also amazing to have lounge area, when I wanted to rest or to work, I had a separate cozy space. The view from the hotel is on the other side of the island, not on caldera. However, it was rather plus for me that no groups of tourists constantly passing by, staring at me in the pool or taking photos. Its perfect for those who also like privacy and quietness while staying at the top touristic spot. During my previous trip to Santorini, I experienced famous caldera view few years ago at the other hotel close by, it was lots of the noise from people walking by and music from restaurants. It was terrible as I couldnt sleep and next day felt exhausted. That why, I loved La Maltese as its extremely quite yet next to everything. In the room, I had a Nespresso machine, it was so beautiful to wake up, make a cup of coffee and sit on a lovely terrace with sea view watching sunrise after a great sleep. Then to have a wonderful breakfast at their restaurant with another magnificent view and plenty of touristic attractions around. Also, the property provides shuttle service from/to the airport which is amazing as in Santorini no uber services. My rides arranged by La Maltese were flawless and on time.

Cons -

• N/A
• If I could add something to my magnificent stay, that would be a minibar. However, the supermarket in 1 min walk so not sure if that really a big deal.
