Reviews4.6/ 5
(from 168 reviews)

Good match for:

  • Caldera Hikers: Steps from the Fira–Oia trailhead—ideal for sunrise and sunset photography on your own pace.
  • Serene Retreat Seekers: Small guesthouse vibe with just 13 rooms and a quiet terrace overlooking the caldera.
  • Independent Explorers: Concierge and tour desk can arrange solo boat trips, volcano hikes and car rentals.

Things to keep in mind:

  • Beach Lovers: Kamari and Perissa beaches require a 15-minute drive; not within walking distance.
  • Nightlife Enthusiasts: Imerovigli is a tranquil village with few bars after dark—Fira’s nightlife is a 10-min drive away.

What a beautiful little gem! Pablos, the hotel manager, was such a gracious host! He gave us suggestions for activities, circled areas on a local map that we should see, and he had our amazing breakfast delivered right to our little front porch sitting area. We had a beautiful view of the Caldera and 3 restaurants right across our little walkway! It was such a wonderful experience, we will be back...

Absolutely charming resort with an unbelievable view of the entire island. We reserved a room that had both an outdoor balcony and a rooftop you can access for panoramic view of the entire island. Since it’s near the top of Imerovigli, it’s definitely one of the best views on the entire island. There are countless great restaurants nearby, and the walking trail to Oia and Fira goes right by the fr...

Lovely Stay at Abelonas Retreat Golden East moved my booking here, and I was pleasantly surprised. The room was spacious, and I could see both the sunrise and sunset – absolutely beautiful views. The staff was friendly, and the breakfast was really good. Even though the weather wasn’t great during my stay, the overall experience at Abelonas Retreat was very nice.

We stayed in the room with the loft. The views were stunning. The front desk guy was very informative about the area. It is the perfect place as home base while exploring. 30 min walk to Fira. The bus stop close by is a hard walk. Downhill to the stop. Uphill back. Very difficult walk. Consider taking a taxi back instead of bus to avoid walking up the hill. The in room breakfast was very plentiful...
