this has been the greatest disappointment in all my hotel experiences. The advertising and pictures on Expedia were misleading. Upon arrival, we quickly realized that the noise from the street was extremely loud. I brought this to the staff's attention, and they informed us that there would be another room available the next day that we could upgrade to. However, we were simply looking for peace and quiet, and the images suggested we would find that here. Unfortunately, the hotel is situated directly on a busy street, and only rooms located further back on the property might offer some relief from the noise.We attempted to discuss the situation with the hotel team, who made efforts to help us by contacting their service and involving Expedia. However, the next day, we were informed that the room they had planned to offer us had been booked overnight, and there were no other options available. We express our desire not to stay at the hotel anymore. We explained that we have a large family and that this was our only holiday, making peace and quiet crucial for us.We where made believed that the hotels customer service team would resolve the issue and secure a refund for us. However, after we left on the second day, we were informed that the hotel's customer service team decided not to issue a refund. We ended up losing a significant amount of money, and I cannot recommend this hotel. I truly don't understand why Expedia promotes it.

We truly enjoyed our stay here. The cleanliness and the breakfast served in our room were a nice touch. We loved interacting with Eleni. She was super sweet and helpful. She recommended nice activities and booked our transportation to the harbour and our cruise tour that she helped us choose. She also recommended us a great place to eat crepes or burgers on our last day. We truly felt in good hands while staying in this property. Would definitely return if we stay in Akrothiri.

Love this place

Lovely views uninterrupted. Great service from the front desk for anything we needed. Rent a car for flexibility and check out the local town and beaches for decent restaurants. Cheaper than Fira and Oia by a long way and the view is just as good over the Caldera - maybe better (the islands are closer).

The hotel and staff are absolutely amazing! Eve was fantastic and made our stay truly memorable with her suggestions and arrangements. The hotel is out of the main areas of Oia and Fira so if you’re looking for quiet room with great views this is your place.

The suites are in a quiet part of Santorini, 35 min away from busy Oía. The room I stayed had an amazing view to the sea and an outdoor hot tub. The room’s outdoor space also felt quite private in comparison to many other outdoor areas I saw in most parts of Santorini so I was very pleased about it. Friendly staff and breakfast in the room was provided every morning. These suites are an excellent option in this price range.

The view from our terrace was spectacular! The caldera is an incredible sight to see. The 2 infinity pools were nice. Staff was friendly and helpful. It was unfortunate that the hotel did not have a restaurant on site. The snack bar was limited and pricey. We ordered breakfast 2 out of 3 mornings anf both times we were missing things from the order. Despite this it was noce to have it delivered to our terrace at the desired time. Overall it was not bad though.
