We stayed at this hotel, the day before our wedding and for the rest of our stay as our honeymoon treat. The hotel was absolutely amazing with the most spectacular view, including and infinity pool looking out onto the caldera and the sunset. The view could also be seen from our apartment and the balcony.

The service was fantastic, they looked after us really well. They welcomed us when we walked from Fira to the Hotel (which isn't recommended on a hot day during midday sun, as it's a bit too hot). They showed us around the hotel and let us use their facilities, which we needed to after the long hot walk.

We also had an opportunity to use the jacuzzi for an hour, which is placed on a veranda. You get the whole area to yourselves for an hour and get to admire the view whilst sitting in the bubbles.

This is definitely recommended for a relaxing romantic break, and we didn't spend enough time there relaxing.

I don't know what happen to my original review which I wrote in 2006. But it still has not appeared. So here goes.
My wife and I have traveled much of the world, stayed in a few 5 star hotels and enjoyed most all of it.
BUT, for us nothing beats the Anastasis Apartments, the views of the sea, the exceptionally well kept property and rooms, the GREAT hospitality of Despina and her husband. Everything, but everything was perfect!
Since our three week stay in May 2006 we have taken cruises, stayed in many other beautiful places in Europe, Asia, Hawaii, South Pacific, Canada and the USA.
BUT our evenings having a drink and simple dinner on our Anastasis Apartments' balcony and watching the sunset over the caldera still tops our list. To Despina and all the employees at Anastasis Apartments, efharisto!! We WILL see you again.

Based on Trip Advisor I booked this gem for 6 days in May 2008. I believe that my wife summed it up as we walked through the doors and saw the blue Aegean beyond the infinity pool - " I think I have died and gone to heaven." The staff is the best I have ever encountered at any hotel or resort - always there, but never intrusive. Stick your head outside in the morning and minutes later your breakfast is there. I have a bad knee and when I needed a little help getting out of the pool there was Victor with a helping hand. Where he came from I will never know. Spotlessly clean! Always fresh flowers in the rooms. And the Jacuzzi at sunset with complimentary wine and mezes was wonderful. There is no food service other than breakfast, but a "snack" of Greek salad and a plate of mezes along with a bottle of the local wine is more than enough for a light meal. If you wish to go out Katerina and Despina are always available to make recommendations and reservations at a great restaurant, even arrange transportation if you need it.

There are some things that Anastasis is not. It is not noisy, even planes leaving the airport seem an intrusion on the serenity. It is not a place to spend alot of time in the room watching TV, but then who would want to. There is no "action", but it is a place where you can enjoy being with your spouse or significant other in a beautiful location with a friendly, attentive staff. A great place for a honeymoon.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!

Stayed 3 nights June 3-5,2008 and don't bother looking anywhere else in Santorini as this place is the best.The view is to die for,the rooms are spotless,the staff fantastic,free internet.We ventured away from the infinity pool with reluctance to walk to Oia on the path that is below the apartments.As has been said numerous times this really is the best place to stay on the island.Book early as we wanted to stay for 5 nights but they were booked.To be in the infinity pool looking down on the caldera is an experience not to be missed.The photos don't lie ,it really does look like this.
