Firostefani Vacations from $740

This hotel was top-notch! We had a family trip planned for 8 people and stayed for 4 nights. When we arrived there was a big hiccup due to Expedia's platform, and the owner, Dimitris, was very understanding and made sure we got it worked out before he did anything, like have to charge us extra. It's tucked away from the overly tourist-filled spots like Fira and Oia. Exactly what the doctor ordered if you're looking for a quiet place to come back home to in Santorini. With that said, the rooms with private pools are spectacular, it feels like home. We had the best time having Aval as our homebase while exploring Santorini and other islands. Along with that, Dimitris helped us make reservations and have seats at restaurants that made unforgettable moments for our family -- everyone with a view. Even still, the food at Aval is delicious and feels homemade. I can't say enough good things about Aval and I can't wait to return to stay and see the folks there again.

Beautiful hotel with an amazing view. Hotel staff was always helpful and friendly. Service, drinks and food were all top notch. Would definitely recommend Rocabella.

Thank you George and your wonderful team for the great support in making this a memorable holiday in every way. Rooms and all the facilities are very clean and the hospitality is second to none.

This is a great hotel on the south side of the island, away from the crazy busy streets of Fira and Oia. It’s really well kept, staff are incredibly friendly (especially Markella on the front desk!) and the view is just spectacular, make sure you wake up to see sunrise. There isn’t a sunset view from the hotel but you could easily find a local viewing spot… Fira is about a 20min drive, we hired a car through the hotel (€55 per day) for two days which allowed us to see most of the island. There’s some great beaches in the south, would highly recommend Theros Wave Bar for a nice beach day where the vibe is relaxed and food is good (€20 for a for two beds), we also hiked from Fira to Oia at sunrise one day which was great.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay. Room was clean with a great view. Staff was helpful with recommendations as well as helping to arrange transportation too. Huge thanks to Chris who even woke up early to help us manage our bags for our early flight. Thank you!
