There is a lot of negative publicity about prices and inflation in Mykonos lately, both internationally and also in Greece. But the surveys confirm that it rightly claims the title of the absolute premium tourist destination, since prices on the island may be hitting red, whether it concerns hotels or catering, but nevertheless 90% of its visitors say they are satisfied.
Research
The satisfaction survey data of INSETE’s latest bulletin comparing how satisfied tourists were in Mykonos, Santorini St. Tropez, Ibiza and Sardinia, is revealing.
The general satisfaction index (GRI®) as well as individual hotel customer satisfaction indicators are calculated by ReviewPro, a company that specializes in measuring the online reputation of hotels. This index is calculated for each hotel by analyzing the variables associated with customer feedback posts on hundreds of social networking platforms, hotel review websites and online travel agents-OTA websites. Indicators above 80% indicate a positive experience. The indicators are qualitative and can be used to evaluate the evolution of the quality of the services provided. The data presented are based on customer reviews of Greek hotels and hotels in competing destinations subject to availability. Therefore, the indicators reflect the competitive level of the Greek hotel product, as well as that of the competing countries.
