The hype
Guests are obsessed with the host (Juan/Pavlos) who acts like a personal concierge, and the breakfast spreads are legendary.
Earino Suites And Villas
$150-350/ noche
Reserva esto si You want the 'Santorini private pool' fantasy without the Oia crowds or the $1,000/night price tag—and you're willing to rent a car to get it.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Massive private plunge pools that are actually heated (rare for this price point)
- Cooked-to-order breakfast served on your private terrace every morning
- The silence—Akrotiri is a ghost town compared to the cruise ship crush of Fira
Resumen rápido: A high-value hideaway on the 'wrong' side of the island that feels like a secret upgrade.
Reseñado por @amandasparkles: I stayed in this suite and honestly, opening that door to the Aegean never got old. The private pool was my favorite spot to just float and watch the boats go by. It felt so private and peaceful compared to the busy towns. Totally worth the splurge.

Antes de reservar
Es bueno saberlo

- The 'heated' pools are typically kept around 26-28°C (79-82°F), which is warm but not 'hot tub' hot.
- Reception is not 24/7; let them know your arrival time in advance.
Qué llevar
- International driving permit (mandatory for renting cars/ATVs)
- sturdy walking shoes (Akrotiri's paths are rougher than Fira's)
- A portable speaker for your pool terrace (just keep it low)

“I'd love a suite with the most secluded terrace possible—ideally one of the upper-level units with a heated plunge pool facing the caldera.”
Preguntas frecuentes y consejos ocultos
Todo lo que realmente quieres saber antes de reservar.
Is the pool actually private?
Yes, most suites have their own plunge pool. However, 'private' in Santorini often means 'exclusive use' but not 'invisible'—neighbors on higher terraces might see you.
How far is the walk to the beach?
Caldera Beach is a steep 15-minute walk down. Red Beach is about a 20-minute walk or 2-minute drive.
Is breakfast included?
Yes, and it's excellent. You order from a menu the night before, and it's delivered to your room/terrace at your chosen time.
Can I get by without a car?
Technically yes, but you'll be miserable waiting for the infrequent bus or paying €30-40 for taxis to Fira. Rent the car.
Is it adults-only?
No, it's family-friendly, but the vibe is very quiet and adult-centric. Kids are welcome but there's no 'kids club'.
Is there an elevator?
No. There are stairs to access most rooms. Porters will help with luggage, but you need to be mobile.
Consejos de Insiders
- ✨
Ask for the 'Greek Omelet' at breakfast—it's not always on the main list but the kitchen makes it.
- ✨
Walk to the nearby 'Theotokaki Art Gallery' for a unique souvenir that isn't a mass-produced magnet.
- ✨
The mini-market nearby closes early; stock up on water and wine before 8pm.
5 cosas que debes saber antes de ir
💡The wind in Akrotiri can be fierce compared to Fira; bring a light jacket even in summer.
💡You can see the Akrotiri Lighthouse light sweeping at night from some terraces.
💡The 'room service' is often just the host picking up food from a local taverna for you (which is actually charming).
💡The wifi is surprisingly fast for the location (Starlink is becoming common, though not guaranteed here).
💡You are a 5-minute walk from the Akrotiri Venetian Castle, which has the best free sunset view on the island.
