This apart-hotel was fantastic! We arrived earlier than the stated check-in, and because our room was clean earlier, Chris and his team allowed us to settle in several hours earlier than scheduled. The pool was incredibly well-maintained and peaceful. The location was only a ~10 minute walk from downtown Fira, both well-located but also provided a serene, secluded feel. The breakfast was fantastic, offering a wide selection of savory and sweet pastries, eggs, cereal, and juice. The staff's hospitality was wonderful from start to end, and we will definitely be returning here whenever we next visit Santorini.

It is 15minutes walk to Fira central uphill might be a problem for some.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

L’hôtel est magnifique, propre et très bien situé, à seulement 15 minutes à pied du centre-ville. La femme de ménage est également très gentille.

Nous avons aussi été accueillis par la petite Roxy, adorable et toujours en demande de caresses, ce qui apporte une touche encore plus chaleureuse au séjour !

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.

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.
