We had a wonderful stay at Ursa Major Suites ! We have never experienced customer service like we did here! The employees were friendly, they were always smiling, very human and so dedicated to making our time there memorable. The suites are beautiful, the rooms are spacious and very clean. The food and the breakfast are excellent. Our favorite part was sitting at night at the bar, drinking cocktails and then having a nice bath in our balcony’s jacuzzi. We can't wait to come back!!! Thank you URSA!

Stayed here for 4 nights whilst visiting the island for a wedding. The suite was perfect and was great to have the hot tub outside. The staff were all amazing, in particular Stefania, who was extremely helpful. Cannot recommend this place highly enough!

This place is absolutely breathtaking. The views are incredible and the room is well appointed with more than enough room. We really found this place relaxing and the perfect place for a getaway.I would recommend making reservations at nearby restaurants in advance because we were unable to get in to some on our four day stay. The nearby mini market is well appointed and you can get beer, wine and snacks.The breakfast is the only thing we would say wasn’t perfect, (some bread/croissants seemed to get stale and the OJ was freshly squeezed on day one and two but not the last two. Some choices were frozen and would take too long to make) but the service from Joseph more than made up for it. He is so friendly and helpful. Excellent hotel manager. Would recommend this place if staying in Tinos.
