Akrotiri, Astarte Suites

Dear All,

first of all I would like to say thank you to George and his family for their exceptional hospitality, spirit and passion. You are a lovely family and you have built a paradise that is hidden from the outside world. On September 18th 2010 I got married at the Astarte Suites, Santorini and it was just perfection. From the moment we contacted the Astarte Suites through emails they were so so helpful.

George became our wedding planner - he did everything and was always on the end of an email for questions. He organised flowers, wedding cake, food, decoration, my family, friends and a lot lot more. We planned the wedding blindfolded, we had never seen the Astarte Suites in person, only on the internet. The night we arrived in Santorini we were obviously nervous but we drove over to Astarte Suites. The sun was just setting and we cautiously opened the blue door into the Astarte Suites - straight away it was perfect. George greeted us and all my fears just disappeared. The place is stunning and no amount of pictures can really give you an idea of this place until you see it with your own eyes. The suites, the infinity pool, the view and the family are all spectacular.

George and his family made my wedding day what it should be - perfect. George even stepped in when the DJ we had booked cancelled at 12pm on the wedding day! and found a new one!!! Words can not fully describe the experience we had at the Astarte. I have lived in the UK, New Zealand and America and visited some amazing places but nothing even comes close to the Astarte. Not only do George and his family offer excellent service they also offer kindness and a passion to make everything the best it can be. We didnt get a chance to say thank you to George's mum but THANK YOU!! We had little children at the hotel/wedding and we also stayed for two nights and they were safe and happy.

What more can I say other than if you are reading this and wanting to find the most idyllic, peaceful, beautiful place for your wedding (or even just a hotel stay) this is the place! Once again thank you to everyone at the Astarte - I could not have asked for more
