9.6/10 Exceptional! (27 reviews)
Amazing beachfront property. New boutique hotel with only seven rooms all facing the beach. There was an absolute attention to detail and the staff was extraordinary. The beach was the best on the island and the restaurant one of the best. We had room number one which you could dive straight into the pool!

Highly recommend the Fira-Oia walk - long with climbs but worth it

Get the caldera/sea view-it is priceless.

having a hotel/apartment room along the caldera makes for amazing sunsets.. however, be prepared for the hike that comes with being there.
