For those wishing to combine peacefulness and entertainment Firostefani is the ideal destination, due to its proximity to the capital of Santorini, Fira. Firostefani is actually an extension of Fira. Its gifted location on the caldera, on the north part of the island, makes it a remarkable site.
There are some white-blue churches dispersed among the beautiful, typical houses that will grab your attention. In this traditional village, there are few cozy restaurants and cafés located on marvelous spots which will make you feel welcome. Some shops and mini markets also exist to provide you with the necessary stuff, most of them concentrated on the main shopping street.
The big advantage of Firostefani, as mentioned earlier, is its proximity to the capital of Santorini; only a step away from the crowded and lively Fira. As a result, it forms the perfect equation. You can combine serenity and relaxation with a vivid nightlife.

I stayed here with my daughters, and the view was absolutely stunning — we were in awe the moment we arrived. Due to the terrain, there are some steep stairs, but Louis kindly carried all of our luggage, so it wasn’t a problem at all. Renalda at the reception was so friendly and attentive, checking in to make sure everything was comfortable during our stay. Thank you, Renalda and Louis!
They gave me a junior suite even if I booked a superior one, but the staff promptly proposed me to swap rooms the second day! (In the end I preferred the view from the small one so I stayed there) The view is amazing, the position is pretty strategic to visit the whole island, the staff working there is great! I didn’t try the breakfast but looked good! I really appreciated the level noise isolation, in an area full of restaurants and people it’s a great plus. The only thing missing is a pool, but you can go to the hotel next to Manos for 20€. Recommended!!
We stayed at a hotel in Santorini and it was absolutely wonderful. The view was breathtaking and the staff were incredibly sweet and friendly. I will definitely want to visit again! The breakfast was also very satisfying and filling. The rooms were clean and well-maintained. What more could you ask for?
Had a small issue with the water draining away in the bathroom after a shower. But fantastic hotel. Great continental breakfast and Amazing views across the Caldera
