Ursa Major Suites

This is a great place to use as a base for exploring all of the small towns of Tinos. The place is relatively new and the staff is just getting the hang of working in hospitality. All are charming and attentive. Stephanie saw that we wanted to walk from town to town and she found us a great guide in Manithos, with Tinos Outdoor Adventures. It was great to walk around with him because he spent his childhood in Tinos and returned to live there as an adult with three children. She also found a good taxi service to take us to some other towns and to drop us off and pick us up at a lovely beach. (We did not rent a car and we did not really need one.) Back to the hotel - the breakfasts were great--you can order from a long list of offerings. The rooms very nicely furnished and the views from all of the terraces are excellent.Each room has a hot tub, which is kept exceedingly clean and offers a nice respite after a day of walking or going to the beach. We were here three nights and there is still more to explore and so many taverns - each village has its own - to eat in. The restaurant at the hotel is very good and so is the tavern in the town square.

The quality of the rooms and outdoor areas including gardens and grounds was very high. It offers an excellent breakfast. The staff were all lovely to deal with and added a friendly aspect to the stay. We were also able to obtain a late check out in the same room which was very helpful and gave us some added quality time at the room. Kolimvithra beach is amazing
