We just returned from spending 8 nights at the Hotel Mystique, overlooking the caldera in the town of Oia on the island of Santorini in Greece. It was one of the best places we have travelled to- food was wonderful at every restaurant and the people were wonderful with us foreigners. The wine, which is produced locally is excellent and the fish is caught fresh daily. The sail in the caldera with a swim in the sulphur hot springs is heavenly. We had room #38 at the Hotel and it was perfect. Do not bring or wear high heels and be prepared to walk up and down a lot of steps as the island is actually a volcano and the buildings are all built into the sides of cliffs, overlooking the caldera. Let the Hotel choose and book all of your restaurants as they reserve the best tables for the Mystique guests. If you like beautiful sunsets, ancient history, excellent shopping, and a place to escape from the maddening crowd (the hotel), this is the place for you. SBH is our preference because it is closer and Mallorca has a lot more diversity to the island than Santorini but Santorini was on our bucket list and we are very glad we went.
