We liked everything but very special was the receptionist Alexandra We thank her very much for her customer service skills A very special girl Thank you very much
Fantastic location and views. Spacious rooms and excellent parking area. Only disappointment was the ´hot tub’ being air temperature and too cool to use.
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.
VERY FRIENDLY STAFF
PEOPLE ARE VERY POLITE
THE VIEW IS EXELLENT FOR PICTURES FROM THE CALDERA BEACH .
FOOD IS REALLY GOOD TASTE AND FAIR PRICE THE BREAKFAST IN AVANT GARDE ARE SO GOOD
We had a perfect stay in Avant garde suite. Perfect view and of caldera, a large suite with nice decoration and terrasse.
The reception was very very kind and helpful and ready to give us the good suggestion for visiting.
Very good Break fast with lots of choice , served at our balcony and near the jacuzzi gave us very good feeling of joy and satisfaction in this hotel 😇
The hotel have beautiful view form inside and outside very organised and clean customer service friendly I definitely recommend this place specially the young lady Eleni that works there I would like to thank her, I think she deserve a raise !! She’s awesome person. I would like to thank her and thank to everybody that works there Great hotel 👍 10/10
We truly enjoyed our stay here. The cleanliness and the breakfast served in our room were a nice touch. We loved interacting with Eleni. She was super sweet and helpful. 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 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!
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!
My daughter and I had a wonderful vacation at this property. Alexandra is knowledgeable, helpful, and truly kind, always smiling!!
Alexandra, I'm crazy about you, you're amazing!
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).
Workers at this establishment were super friendly and would go above and beyond to accommodate my family. The daily breakfast was delicious! Only issue was the hot tub after an hour the jet wouldn’t turn back on.
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.
Simply amazing. The staff was on point from arrival till our departure. Such a friendly and warming staff. Def made our stay in Santorini a must remember experience. They went above and beyond helping us with booking tours as well as recommending some of the best places I’ve seen.
Thank you again. And wish to be back

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.
L’hôtel était propre en général et le staff gentil. Par contre, lors de notre séjour le jacuzzi n’était pas fonctionnel et le frigo non plus. La salle de bain n’avait pas de ventilation.
Vista magnifica, belle camere, personale super gentile ed un rapporto qualità prezzo eccellente, siamo stati super soddisfatti della vacanza.
p.s. munitevi di macchina per muovervi sull'isola
Hôtel exceptionnel avec une vue incroyable. Petit déjeuner très bien garni servi en chambre ou au bord de la piscine avec vue sur les falaises. Personnel d'une gentillesse incroyable qui rendent le séjour encore plus agréable.
