5 nights in an Allure Suite ( Room #1) and no regrets !

Best points, the view, the staff, the breakfast ( too good.....) and the feeling about the place....

Bad points - none really..except minor quibbles about room fittings...

Oia is excellent and a stay at the Mystique will only make you like it more.

We had an outstanding experience at Mystique. The ladies that work the front desk bend over backwards to accomodate all of their guests and we witnessed this first hand during our entire stay.

The place is lovely and quiet. The view is simply spectacular. Often times, we had the pool and verandah's to ourselves! The breakfast, which is included in the cost of the stay, is unlimited. You can even drink champagne every day!

We are experienced travelers and relied on the Starwood Luxury name for this trip. We were not disappointed. This place has got it all and we will return there again when we plan another trip to the Greek Islands.

Also, you can't go wrong with Oia. It is top notch, and I wouldn't select Immerovigli or Thira over Oia, even for a 5 star hotel with an impeccable record.

The view is amazing, the service is doting, but luxury travellers may feel this property lacks something -- and for the money what's missing will only seem more glaring.

We stayed at Mystique as the last leg of our honeymoon which took us from Rome to Florence to Athens to Santorini. The hotel is nice, but please note that it is *completely* inaccessible to those in wheelchairs, crutches, etc. It was 64 steps from the street level to our "cabin," and 20 more to the included breakfast, pool and cabana area. Breakfast was included in our rate--otherwise it was a whopping 55 euros/person!!!

We were upgraded to an Allure suite from a vibrant suite. I can only imagine what a vibrant suite must have looked like. The allure suite was deep, but due to the hotel's design, natural light was lacking by the beds. Room decor is "minimalist island chic," which proved jarring after a honeymoon that had included stays at some opulent European hotels.

The pool was almost laughably small, there were no gym facilities to speak of (but there were those steps!), and because of the size of the hotel other resort like amenities (spa, sauna, restaurant choices) were very limited. The staff was very responsive to our every need and given how few rooms there are, you get to know the staff personally over all but the shortest stay.

Bottom-line: This is a unique property with few frills--yet still offered at top dollar. While it will please some, it's not for everyone and one would do well to be cautious before booking to avoid disappointment.

We are members of Andrew Harper and his Hideaway Report. We like to think we find the best hotels where ever we travel - as a result of reading his reports. This hotel was brand new and not listed yet and we were traveling at the last moment so we could not get into Katikies. (or any of the others listed in his report) so we booked here.

They gave us a room with a loft area when we arrived and I did not like it. The view was amazing - the service was outstanding, but for me the room felt too small.

They moved us to room 12 the next day - and boy was a difference (for me again) This was room was very spacious - and was all on one floor. The outside deck area for our room is very large and I am sitting there as I type this now - looking at the sea...

Service here is outstanding, never met nicer people who really care about what they do. They go out of their way to help, make suggestions for places to see etc. We have eaten at several places on the island now (even Ambrosia) and think the food here is the best (as well as the view).

This is the place on Santorini!
