Booked my hotels - Thanks for everyones help!

Mother/Daughter Graduation trip June 2019. I have just finished booking my hotel reservations based on the many great suggestions on this site and others. Thank you everyone for your input. All reservations are refundable and include breakfast, and still within my budget. Here is what I have -

4 Nights in Napflio - Ornofi Poli Twin room with balcony
3 Nights in Santorini - Sunset Hotel - I booked the triple room for extra room, secure two beds and view
4 Nights in Naxos - Kymata - Booked twin beds with Sea View
4 Nights in Athlens - Booked twin beds with Acropolis View

So glad flights and room are booked. Next step are the domestic flights, car rental and tours, so I am going to take a break for a few months before I do that.

Thank you again I am so excited!!!

It has been a long time since I was in Greece, but I think these days you might save some money by getting the plane tickets as early as you can. Of course, that is risky, because those will be non-refundable.

Just a little forewarning: Unless you've specifically been assured that your room at the Sunset Hotel is larger than a 2-bed room, be prepared just in case they've squeezed a 3rd bed in a room that wasn't originally designed to have the extra space you expect. Sometimes the lower budget hotels do this to make more money, leaving the guests to deal with cramped quarters. I'm not saying this is what you'll be experiencing. I'm just telling you to not be too disappointed if it turns out to be the case.

In response to the questions, joe32F yes the order is my choice. We have a layover in London and an early flight to Athens. I decided I would rather hop in a car and drive to Napflio and spend 4 days then drive back early and take a plane to Santorini, then stress about my connection being delayed. Just my choice. Acraven, thanks, I will look into domestic flights next, your probably right best to book now....will do. Lee, yes I did check, I was mostly concerned with sharing a double or queen bed with my daughter, which happens all the time when they give you a double/twin option. So to be safe I booked the tripple, it does look like a separate size room.

Js, in that triple, if there's a 3rd bed & it seems crowded you probably can get them to move the xtra bed out during your stay. And BTW, you have obtained some well-located places at good value, and since you appear to llike to have things settled well in advance, you can relax and do your research & browsing for activities at a slower pace.
