Guest Reviews
- Lauren (10/5): - The staff was very friendly and helped us with some amazing activities and spots to explore. Breakfast was delicious and the room was very clean and comfortable.
- Arun (10/5): - The apartment was very spacious and the property was super clean. Very nice place and I would love to stay again. Breakfast was very fresh everyday from a local bakery. So it was very good..
It is 15minutes walk to Fira central uphill might be a problem for some.
- David (10/5): Vacances découverte santorin - Chris numéro 10 est vraiment un hôte très serviable, un grand merci à lui. Le service de nettoyage est très efficace et la dame très gentille et souriante.
Le p’tit déjeuner est amené à l’appartement en un éclair après la commande par téléphone.
La piscine est très agréable, le logement est grand. Je conseille pour les couples ou famille cherchant la relaxation.
Il est possible de rejoindre Fira à pied après une petite montée de 20min.
Juste petit bémol peu pratique pour se faire à manger et la literie est un peu raide.
- Sandra (8/5): - Room service daily, always clean towels. So close to Fira
- Kim (10/5): - Owner Chris was fantastic helpful and very welcoming. Breakfast was great delivered to the room each morning.
- Anaïs (10/5): - Séjour au Moonlight très agréable. Le personnel est serviable, arrangeant et à l'écoute de nos demandes. Il nous a organisé une location de scooter directement au pied de l'hôtel sans frais supplémentaires. Vraiment super séjour. Petit bémol sur la literie avec ressorts... Et la rue est très passante et bruyante. Cela n'enlève rien au cadre magique avec une vue sur la mer splendide avec un magnifique sunrise !
- Oscar (10/5): - The apartment was great and Chris did an exceptional job of me checking in late.
- Regnor (10/5): - Kris was very helpful.
- Dorte (8/5): Glimrende - God pool, hyggeligt med morgenmad serveret på værelset. Sød vært. Overvej at leje bil, da der er en pæn gåtur op ad bakke til centrum.
- Alex (10/5): Gentili e perfetti, ogni desiderio lo esaudiscono - Grazie al receptionist ogni desiderio viene esaudito, ci accoglie con un inglese perfetto e alle richieste di check out anticipato ci aiuta con una colazione al sacco senza problemi.
Per il quad chiama il noleggio e lo fa arrivare all'hotel senza nessun ricarico e prezzo nella norma.
Per la navetta aeroportuale 25€/ tratta. Meno che con il taxi che ne chiede 35€.
Direi tutto perfetto.
Piscina bellissima vista mare. Casa pulita e ampia. Niente di meglio da chiedere.
- Elena Daniela (10/5): Appartamenti a buon prezzo! - Consiglio questa struttura dotata di mini appartamenti comunque spaziosi. Con un bel soggiorno con un angolo cottura a induzione, un piccolo frigo già riempito di acqua, bevande birra, il costo è ragionevole, una lattina di Fanta costa 2,20€ (giugno 2024). La camera è di circa 18 mq dotata anche di cassaforte con chiave. Bagno abbastanza spazioso con doccia a soffione, ovviamente senza bidet. Dista da Fira a circa 5 min di auto o scooter.
- Jaynee (10/5): Our Favourite Hotel in Greece! - Absolutely amazing experience! We were greeted by the most incredible host! He gave us lots of recommendations and information of what to do in the area and how to walk into the centre of Fira. The room was excellent and had everything you could need.
- Jaynee (10/5): Our Favourite Hotel in Greece! - Absolutely amazing experience! We were greeted by the most bubbly and sweet guy ever! He gave us lots of recommendations and information of what to do in the area and how to walk into the centre of Fira. The room was excellent and had everything you could need, not to mention the delicious breakfasts every morning!
- Ruben (10/5): - The apartment was quite spacious. Chris was very welcoming and informative about the attractions in the whole island. The place is well kept, clean, and comfortable. The area around the property seem to be developing, and I guess the limiting transportation is a general issue in the island. If I've known better, I would have rented a car. That way you can visit more places at your convenience and spend less time dealing with public transport. Overall, I loved my stay at this place.
- Michail (10/5): - The property was excellent. Daily cleaning, a nice little breakfast with room-service, beautiful rooms.
Christos was a perfect host and made our stay really special and comfortable.
We would recommend this property! Thanks for everything!
- Isabelle (10/5): - Owner was very kind, and helped us make sure our stay went well! He accomadated us for our early arrival and assisted us with ATV rental and taxis and gave us good information about the island and best places to go and see. Breakfast was a room service included with our stay and was delicious! Would definitely come back.
- Candida (10/5): A wonderful find - A wonderful experience. The staff is very accommodating and helpful. They made our ferry camcellation and additional delay easier by having everything ready and communicating with us all along the way.
They provided amazing customer service, the rooms were spotless and refreshed daily. It was the way they served us that was so wonderful - like they were truly happy to make our stay better. There was not a single thing about our stay that was difficult once we finally arrived at the hotel.
It is about a 15 min walk into Fira from the hotel. Which meant the nights were peaceful and relaxing. I would absolutely return here anytime I'm on the island.
- David (8/5): - Acn satt i vardagsrummet, men borde varit placerad i sovrummet istället då det blev väldigt varmt.
ACn vad sönder, men den snälla personalen ordnade så att det kom dit folk och lagade den.
Annars var rummet och servicen helt enastående med frukost på rummet osv.
- Graeme (10/5): - Fabulous property in a beautiful location. Owners were amazingly friendly, welcoming and helpful. Bed was comfy and property was very spacious.
- Michele (10/5): - The owner was a unique kindness. Hotel in a good & strategic position.
- joanne (10/5): - Chris was a fantastic host nothing to much trouble. Property was lovely and clean free air con. Only 10 minute walk into centre of Fira
- Amelie (10/5): - Wir haben zwei Nächte hier verbracht und hatten eine wunderschöne Zeit. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hat uns viele hilfreiche Informationen gegeben.
Das Apartment ist sehr groß und sauber. Es ist ruhig gelegen, aber dennoch kommt man schnell in die Stadt.
- Lisa (10/5): Parfait :-) - C’était mon premier voyage seule, et tout était parfait. L’hôte Chris a été extrêmement disponible, serviable et arrangeant pour m’aider à organiser mes journées selon mes envies. Quant à l’appartement : très confortable il dispose de tout le nécessaire, très propre, et la localisation à 15min à pieds du centre est parfaite pour profiter d’un peu de calme, et surtout pour apprécier la beauté somptueuse du village où ne croise quasi personne lors de la montée vers Fira.
- Adam (10/5): - A very nice apartment complex about 20 to 25 minutes walk from Fira. Plenty of parking on site. The pool and pool area were never busy and we always got a sun bed when we wanted.
The rooms are large and well appointed, but lack a TV in the living area (there is one in the bedroom). A little more storage for clothes would be good. There's a large wardrobe but no draws. We ended up living out of our suitcases.
Chris on reception is helpful and friendly.
- Robert (6/5): Prima voor kort verblijf - Complex ligt een beetje uit de slag in Fira, dus houdt rekening met een 20 minuten wandeling, na X uren slenteren door Fira. Onze kamer was groot, en gedeeltelijk gerenoveerd. Jammer dat het matras een harde bodem had en we met pijn in de rug wakker werden. Achteraf blijkt dat de eigenaar ook top matrassen heeft echter dat hoorden we de dag erna pas. Eigenaar is zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Ontbijt was prima en werd op de kamer gebracht
- Verified traveler (8/5): Quiet, clean, overall good value - Super-friendly staff, and the place is spotless. The pool is gorgeous, and you won’t find much at this price point in Santorini that feels clean, comfortable, safe, and QUIET.
Downsides are mentioned in the other reviews — the beds are really hard, but we weren’t staying long.
Also it’s close enough to Fira town but just far enough that if you have anyone with limited mobility, small children, etc it’s a bit too far (20 minutes at a slow pace and includes a couple climbs) … and you’ll be pressured to take the hotel-provided car service (not a legal taxi) that’s €15 to go one way to the main square of Fira (a five-minute drive).
That will add up quickly, but If you’re renting a car maybe that’s not an issue.
There aren’t any shops within a quick walk, but to make up for that there is an inexpensive mini bar with some drinks and snacks (about €2.20 for soft drinks).
We did feel a little pushed to book activities or order food through the hotel, but that’s Santorini.
There was coffee in the room and a coffee maker, but no breakfast was provided… unless it was some pre-packaged, convenience-store type croissants we saw, but assumed they were part of the mini bar offerings.
Again, not a big deal to us, but to some, getting breakfast in Santorini is a big thing.
Overall clean, safe, quiet value for a very expensive island. We’d return if in Santorini again.
- Paola (10/5): - The host was very pleasant and helpful. The property was clean and in a convenient location.
- Michele (10/5): - We liked everything. The apartments are comfortable and nice. The breakfast was different every day. Chris, the owner, is a reliable person, very kind and always available for you. The city center is 10min far if you decide to walk, otherwise it’s less then 5 minutes with a car or a scooter or similar.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Had a generally good stay - I had a good stay at Moonlight Apartment its about 12-15 walking distance to Fira town center and about 15mins drive to OIA Village. Chris (the host) was very accommodating, friendly and nice, he provides guidance and help where necessary and required..
Breakfast was good but its a continental breakfast. No hot meal aside the tea and coffee which you will make by yourself. Breakfast comes with a sandwich toast.
Would have preferred a bit of mixture of breakfast on different days. More hot food and some fruits.
The mattress was old spring type, and hard on the body not comfortable to sleep in at all, same as the Sofa in the living room. both were not comfortable at all. it was a holiday anyway so we managed the mattresses.
The hotel is safe, cleanliness is 100% top notch but the hotel can do some upgrade to the sofa, Mattress and pillows.
The Swimming pool is amazing and the view is lovely
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great Property - Very nice host, great breakfast, the only downside is the walk to Fira is about 20 minutes uphill.
- Antonello (10/5): - Tutto perfetto !
- Harry (10/5): Perfect! - Perfect!
I couldn’t fault this stay. A family run business that was perfect start to finish.
- Leslie (10/5): Séjour en famille à Fira. - Chris et sa Maman sont des hôtes très accueillants toujours la pour vous aider.
L’hôtel est propre et le petit déjeuner est copieux.
La piscine est agréable quand il fait très chaud dehors.
Situé à 15 minutes à pied du centre de Fira, permet d’éviter l’effervescence du centre. Après la montée sous le soleil la vue sur Fira vaut l’effort. Personnellement nous avons fini par louer un véhicule. Je recommande cet hôtel niveau rapport qualité/prix
- Folashade (6/5): Nice - Great stay...could do with extra touches to bring it up to 4*
- Maria F. (10/5): Fantastic - This stay was amazing! The staff and amenities are incredible! Definitely rent a scooter or arc to get around. The taxis don’t like to pick you up because you are too close to town.
- Richard (8/5): Nice place, helpful staff. - Good stay and very helpful owners. The place was very clean and staff are willing to help you plan your visit. The only issue we had was that the end was very uncomfortable and led to bad nights sleep. It is also an uphill walk to the town which can be frustrating after 3/4 times of doing it.
- Katya&Marcello (10/5): - It was close to everything, very spacious, very clean, it was very convenient that had a pool. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
- Verified traveler (10/5): an amazing spot, with an amazing host! - Chris (the host) is amazing, the rooms are big and comfortable.the swimming pool is always clean, if you go don't miss the breakfast deal, its worth every penny. highly recommended
- Pratheep Kumar (8/5): My stay - Manager was very helpful. No heater/Ac in hall which is bit difficult to manage with kids.
Otherwise ok.
- Humberto (8/5): A good choice - Spacious, clean and comfortable apartment. Newly built or renovated. Nice pool and pool area. 15 min walk to centre of Thera. Kitchen with stove and filter coffee machine available for anyone wanting to self cater, but no microwave oven, kettle, cookware or cutlery was provided. In-room safe too small for a notebook, tablet or camera. Iron and ironing board was not available in the room, had to request shared use of one from reception. Good and adequate continental breakfast was served in our apartment daily. Wi-fi connectivity was good.
- Sarah (10/5): Family getaway - We had a great time staying at moonlight apartments. They brought breakfast to us every morning and it was always different, which we really enjoyed. It was quiet but still a short walk into the busy streets of Fira. The staff were super friendly and the cleanest hotel we have stayed at in all of Greece. I would defiantly recommend this hotel for anyone with a family that wants to explore Santorini. And I forgot to mention It’s a 20min drive to Oia.
- janice (8/5): Away from the crowds! - Our host was wonderful and this was a nice option to staying in either Fira or Oia where the crowds are oppressive even off season. Clean, well maintained, attentive host, ample parking & quiet. Nice pool for an early morning dip. Would definitely recommend a car if you choose these accommodations.
- Timothy (4/5): - the reception guy is very nice and friendly, but the house keeping forgot to refill shower gel and shampoo when we get back at night!!
The apartment location is terrible! The reception told us only 5 minutes walk to Fira city center, but actually it took us more than fifteen minutes walk, uphills, through construction site, crossing high way under 35 degree at noon! Thanks god we walk pass by Fira clinic and they give us free ice water.
The second day we ask the apartment to help us call a taxi to Fira town, the recription saud it will be around EUR8 (for 2 person) since very short driving distance within 2 minutes. It a meter taxi but they don't start the meter, the reception guy told is to agree a price with the driver. When the taxi cane, the driver told us it should be EUR10 (for 2 person), but the driver pick up along a couple along with a baby. I have to sit at front and my wife separate sit at back. Don't expected the taxi is on your own! Even the pick up more passengers, they won't charge you less!! The taxi and shuttle driver just maximum their income without concerning the tourists feeling! I won't goto Santorini ever again in my life time!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great stay - We loved our stay. Room was spacious and clean and fantastic pool.
- breege (8/5): Modern apartment near Fira. - The Moonlight apartments are ideally located for exploring Fira and with the use of a car the rest of the island. The complex is small just
seven apartments. The apartments are modern, very clean and serviced everyday. Chris ar reception was very helpful in advising on the local area, with car rental and excursions. The daily breakfast brought to the apartment was great although enormous. The apartments are 10/15 minute walk into the center of Fira long a rough area of waste land. The alternative was 30 minutes by road.
On the negative side the air conditioning in the bedroom only was not sifficient to cover the living area. The bed settee in the living room was very uncomfortable for my 16 year daughter resulting on her sleeping on the floor most nights. By way of improvement I would recommend more comfortable setteesand chairs in the living room and more storage in bedroom or living area for clothes.
- Wayne (10/5): Great hotel with great service staff - This 3-star hotel deserves high marks for its hospitality, cleanliness, and comfort. I concur with all other reviewers that Chris is an excellent manager. He does everything to accommodate hotel guests, and never gets impatient with our long list of questions. The room we booked is very roomy, with good decoration as shown on their display photos. If you are visiting Santorini on a budget, Moonlight is a no-brainer.
- Michelle (8/5): Convenient and friendly - The pool was great! Room was very nice but mattresses were too hard so sleep didn't come easy. Walls were thin and we heard other people in other rooms. Staff were wonderfully helpful and happy. Saw small ants on floor when we woke up. Would recommend this hotel as a three star.
- Daniel (10/5): - This was really an amazing place. The concrete work and tile throughout is meticulous. Definitely worth the price. Free nice breakfast to boot. Chris was friendly and willing to do anything for us. My biggest mistake was only booking 2 nights here.
- valeen (10/5): Close to downtown and very clean. - Very nice place, excellent people and service, room was spotless and thira downtown was only 15 minutes walk, definitely recommend it.
- Altaf (10/5): - We enjoyed our stay. Chris was very nice and accommodating!
- Mike (8/5): Good Value, excellent space - Good Value place to stay. Apartments are spacious and the pool is a must for hot days.
It's a little out of town, which can be nice, but it's not the easiest to reach on foot along a busy highway. If you're renting transportation, that should be no problem.
Staff were very helpful.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Friendly, Quiet Place - We were able to arrange a pick up from the port with Moonlight apartments, this definitely was helpful to us. We were greeted upon arrival and were provided with some available tours. We were able to get a ATV rented by suggestion, which is great to tour around the island. He had also helped us book a tour to the Volcano. The breakfast in the morning was very filling and brought right to your door. This service allowed us to relax in the morning. The only downfall of this place was the ability to cook; the kitchen had a sink and a cook top, however, you had to call the front desk to get pots, pans, plates, and cutlery. I am sure they would be quick to bring these items, however I would think the whole point of renting a place with a kitchen would be to have all amenities at your finger tips. Otherwise, the location was very good, it is walkable, but easier to rent something to get around.
- James (8/5): Fantastic - A lovely hotel close enough but away from the hustle and bustle. Great rooms.
- Meg (10/5): Excellent apartment close to Fira - We had a fabulous holiday in Santorini and loved staying at Moonlight Apartments. We hired a car which met us at the ferry so we could drive to the apartment and get around on the island. We loved the food, bars and shops. We found plenty to do each day. The apartment was close to Fira where there is lots of shopping and plenty of bars and restaurants. The sunsets are amazing. The walk is very steep and you can expect lots of steps. You can drive but parking can be out of town anyway.
- Jason (8/5): Quiet Hotel Near Central Fira - We have 2 small kids and this place was ideal for us. It is in the middle of the island so we could drive easily in either direction. Swimming Pool had a kiddie pool attached and my daughter loved it. They had a crib already set up and an additional small bed for by 2.5 yr old.
- alex (10/5): Amazing experience ! - Moonlight apartments exceeded all my expectations. The apartments were beautiful and beyond clean. Service is amazing and the staff is SO helpful. Only a 10 minute walk to Fira town and with a scooter or atv it is a 2 minute drive. It is in a quiet location. I wouldn't have stayed anywhere else and would definitely go back !
