カストロ マンション(Kastro Mansion)

I love Kastro Mansion! The service is wonderful and the location is optimal. Its located in the town of Prygos. We stayed here in 2017 and loved our experience. We knew we would love our stay again and we did. The staff was very helpful in providing detailed information about the island and things to do. They were just a text away. The rooms are so clean and comfortable. The view from the rooms is also wonderful. It's for sure our go to place to stay at when we are in Santorini.

Life changing experience! We stayed at the Calypso Premium Suite,which was absolutely heavenly!The suite was very spacious and clean and it also came with daily maid service.Also the aesthetics of the room and the view was to die for(we took like a million photos).The staff was very friendly too and always more than willing to recommend us all the must-see places of the island.I’m glad I picked kastro mansion for my very first visit to Santorini and I will be coming back next Summer, for sure.

Luxurious stay with all the amenities, amazing to step right out of the suite into the scenic streets, close proximity to restaurants and cafes. Beautiful interiors and decor, gorgeous views from the private terrace, very friendly and attentive host. Would recommend highly!!!

Great location in the heart of Pyrgos village. We really loved the character of the spacious suite, elegant, spotlessly clean and a nice homely feel. Walking distance to restaurants and coffee shops with lovely sunset views Breakfast was delicious and a great start to our day. From the moment we arrived, the host went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction, was super friendly and welcoming and gave us great recommendations for activities. Thank you so much for an amazing stay!!!

The room location is great. Couple of restaurants very close at the top of the hill and great little streets to wander. Also neat and tidy and well laid out. However, the property manager and the host like to play loose with the truth when asked about amenities listed on the travel sites, and are disingenuous about what there actually is on offer at the property. This is NOT a hotel - it is 3 ‘AirBNB’ apartments - and very few of the ‘facilities’ are on-site - the host and property manager simply tell you where on Santorini you can get things done. (“Oh, you thought the hotel had a spa? No, but there are facilities nearby you can use”) Amenities including: Spa: Facial treatments, waxing services, makeup services etc Or Dry Cleaning, Manicure, Body Treatments, Laundry, Canoeing, Room Service Or Fishing, Canoeing, Hiking, Diving, Horseback Riding are indeed available on SANTORINI - but NOT amenities of the apartment. “Oh, no, these are not at the property, but we can organise any of these features if you would like” Also, questions answered by the hotel say: There is a sunset view from the Premium Room. There is most definitely not. None of the photos of the sunset are from the Premium Room. The photo from the Premium Room is a carefully crafted photo showing a tiny bit of sea in the distance (south facing and not west for the sunset)through the courtyard entry door - which when closed (all the time one is in the property) has zero view at all. A Private Beach 7km away is mentioned as available to guests. This “Private Beach” is not Private with a capital P - it is a PUBLIC beach - it simply is secluded and some privacy (with a little p) can be found. We asked for laundry and we’re pointed to a laundromat in Kamari. Again, the room and location is very nice. But the way it is pitched is not genuine.

There cannot be a better place to stay in Santorini! The views are stunning and the space is amazing. Irene is so very welcoming and helpful in making sure we had a memorable trip to Santorini. Pyrgos is serene and the Kastro Mansion is almost at the top, giving you an expansive view of the island. The windows open to classic church views of blue and white but have blackout shutters that enable you to forget what time it is. Having a kitchenette, along with other creature comforts like a robe and slippers, helped us feel right at home.

Really cute spacious place in a quaint village.

This is a magical hotel in a magical place. With just 6 rooms, you get personal service and the privacy of your own space. Irene is AMAZING! She went out of her way to make our trip special. The views are incredible but the people of this town make it the unique and special place it is.

This property is located in the heart of Pyrgos Kallisti up a labrynth of white washed stone alleyways. You don't feel like a tourist but a local who lives in Pyrgos. I am glad that Irene showed us where it was because it would be easy to miss if you were looking for it on your own. If you rent a car like we did, ask to meet Irene at the airport, as it was a bit tough to meet Irene in Pyrgos. We got lost in the village because of all the beautiful but winding walkways. Asked a random lady and she helped up find Irene (walked with us until we found her - she knew Irene and called her on her phone). I can't believe how nice the people of Pyrgos were. We went about two months after Greece re-opened so it was very quiet and not many tourists were around. It was easy to get to restaurants and we never had to wait for tables. The small shops in the village have some great items and the shopkeepers are very nice and personable. The property was very roomy. We had the two bedroom unit with the kitchenette. The unit had two AC's which kept the room very cool at night and the morning. It was unusually warm this summer so I was very thankful for that. The room was clean and the beds were very comfy. It had a small living room and a dining room which made it easy for the two of us to stay in without feeling claustrophobic. It has a coffee maker and tea kettle. They stock the mini-fridge with water every day. Our room came with daily breakfast from Penelope's. That was a big breakfast and it was very appreciated. Penelope's is a great restaurant to go to for lunch as well. The hot tub is very big and so relaxing (it takes about 1 whole day to get hot so keep that in mind). The people in the village are so nice. We stayed for several days and even ran into an elderly woman who I would see every morning and would always say Kalimera (good morning). Irene is very nice and helpful. Our shower head came off and she got someone to fix it on the same day. Her assistant even lugged our two large suitcases up the stairs to the unit. The unit is about 1/4 mile up a lot of stairs, so keep that in mind if you have mobility issues. Pyrgos is about 10 minutes from Fira by car. There is decent parking in Pyrgos and driving in Santorini was easy (I didn't think they drove crazy at all - but I am from Texas and drivers in Texas don't follow any traffic rules, so I might be an exception). Oia is a bit confusing to drive around and finding parking there was bit more of a challenge than Fira. There are only a handful of major roads and the signage is really good. It is hard to get truly lost in Santorini. Really close to Kastro is the Santo Winery which is very nice. Also Cava Alta, Penelopes, and Rosemary are great restaurants in Pyrgos which were not very expensive either. Great food at fair prices all over the village. I would definitely recommend the Kastro Mansion.
