I can't recommend Aliter Suites enough. The location is excellent. It's very central to the entire island, and there is really access to other destinations around Santorini. The drive to Oia is very simple (only two-three turns) and it takes about 25-30 minutes. The drive into Fira is a quick 6 minute drive in. We loved how accessible the entire island was, but the best part was that Aliter Suites is a little secluded and more peaceful away from the center city chaos and sunset crowds. It's very quiet and nice -- you can enjoy the privacy and seclusion when you want, and easily head into the towns when you needed. It's very peaceful and a short 10 minute walk (or a 3 minute drive) to a black beach at the end of the street. If you want to be in the crazy hustle and bustle downtown, this probably isn't the place for you -- you'll need an ATV or a car or scooter, as the suites are a bit secluded (which is what we loved about them --
to each their own). The actual space (we stayed in Medusa) is amazing -- it's HUGE! We had a jacuzzi (which unfortunately didn't get very hot), and a great private terrace and view. The cleaning staff comes everyday and does a really quick and neat job. Continental breakfast is served daily and it's a delicious spread -- pastries, yogurts, eggs, meats, coffees, juices, and more. Honestly, what made Aliter Suites 5-star for us was the staff, especially Elektra. Elektra goes above and beyond to make your time in Santorini as enjoyable and seamless as possible. She organized our ATVs for us (arranged for them to be dropped off and picked up at the front door), she organized our travel shuttles to and from the airport and port, and she gave us a great rundown of how to get around the island. She was very sweet and very helpful, and she alone is a good enough reason to stay here. She can organize your day trips, etc. and just really makes life easy for you on your vacation. If we're ever in Santorini again, we'll be staying here -- and I encourage you to too!
