Guest Reviews

Location

Desiterra Resort is a stunning location with lovely sea views from all around the hotel and every suite. It's situated in a discreet area, away from the crowds, perfect for families and those seeking a calm, secluded resort. Although not beachfront as advertised and with no shops or restaurants nearby, it's well connected to the main roads and within walking distance to the beach. However, a car is recommended to access all the nearby amenities. The property is a bit far from the city Fira, but it's only 10/15 minutes from the airport and only 10 minutes from Fira with complementary hotel shuttle. The resort is in a unique white rock valley with a view to the sea, making it a beautiful and magical location. The rooms are nice and clean and the breakfast is great. The resort is a perfect starting point for exploring Santorini (better rent a car if you like to visit around). The panoramic view from the terrace for meals, facing the sea, is a highlight. A serene vacation spot, far from everything, but well placed to visit the island.

Breakfast

Desiterra Resort offers a delicious breakfast with high-quality and homemade ingredients, including local foods and a healthy approach. The breakfast menu includes four set options, although some guests preferred a buffet style. However, the exceptional vegan breakfast prepared by the chef received positive feedback. Guests also enjoyed ordering the 'floating breakfast' experience. The B?F was superb and the bartender awesome. Despite some limited options for breakfast and dinner, the food was fabulous, tasty and delicious. The staff was friendly and provided excellent recommendations for nearby restaurants. Unfortunately, some guests experienced long waiting times and subpar food quality with raw pancakes or cold eggs.
