Beautiful suite overlooking the bay. Staff onsite were absolutely amazing and always on hand to answer questions and help if needed. Would 100% recommend the Avant Garde Suites. Nice little town with 5 min walk which has a nice selection of restaurants. Has a real authentic feel in this area and not as crowded as the main towns.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Avant Garde Suites, the view was amazing and the room was spacious having a lounge and bedroom area separate. Alexandra was a fabulous host, providing help for interesting sites to visit, dining options etc. We wish we had had the time to have stayed longer in Akrotiri and at Avant Garde to have enjoyed the lovely pool whilst soaking in the views!

The hotel and staff are absolutely amazing! Eve was fantastic and made our stay truly memorable with her suggestions and arrangements. The hotel is out of the main areas of Oia and Fira so if you’re looking for quiet room with great views this is your place.

Love this place

Lovely views uninterrupted. Great service from the front desk for anything we needed. Rent a car for flexibility and check out the local town and beaches for decent restaurants. Cheaper than Fira and Oia by a long way and the view is just as good over the Caldera - maybe better (the islands are closer).

The suites are in a quiet part of Santorini, 35 min away from busy Oía. The room I stayed had an amazing view to the sea and an outdoor hot tub. The room’s outdoor space also felt quite private in comparison to many other outdoor areas I saw in most parts of Santorini so I was very pleased about it. Friendly staff and breakfast in the room was provided every morning. These suites are an excellent option in this price range.

She recommended nice activities and booked our transportation to the harbour and our cruise tour that she helped us choose. She also recommended us a great place to eat crepes or burgers on our last day. We truly felt in good hands while staying in this property. Would definitely return if we stay in Akrothiri.

A hotel with incredible views and great staff!

A very nice place with spectacular views to the bay of Santorini. The rooms on the ground floor have joint terrace with the neighbours separated by a wall. If you want more privacy during your bath in the jacuzzi then a room on the first floor is better. We enjoyed it anyway and very much! The staff (Eleni and Vanos) are very kind and helpful with everything. The breakfast is at your room while you enjoy the views! Parking the car is easy and for free. The only minor “problem” was that during the night you hear the traffic of some “crazy Greek drivers” with loads of music and tuned motors (it’s best you take a room further away from the road) This was by far the best of all hotels we booked during our visits to Athens, Naxos, Santorini and Mykonos. Thank you Eleni and Vanos!

2/10 Terrible

this has been the greatest disappointment in all my hotel experiences. The advertising and pictures on Expedia were misleading. Upon arrival, we quickly realized that the noise from the street was extremely loud. I brought this to the staff's attention, and they informed us that there would be another room available the next day that we could upgrade to. However, we were simply looking for peace and quiet, and the images suggested we would find that here. Unfortunately, the hotel is situated directly on a busy street, and only rooms located further back on the property might offer some relief from the noise.We attempted to discuss the situation with the hotel team, who made efforts to help us by contacting their service and involving Expedia. However, the next day, we were informed that the room they had planned to offer us had been booked overnight, and there were no other options available. We express our desire not to stay at the hotel anymore. We explained that we have a large family and that this was our only holiday, making peace and quiet crucial for us.We where made believed that the hotels customer service team would resolve the issue and secure a refund for us. However, after we left on the second day, we were informed that the hotel's customer service team decided not to issue a refund. We ended up losing a significant amount of money, and I cannot recommend this hotel. I truly don't understand why Expedia promotes it.
