When we planned our short sidetrip to Santorini, we probably went through more than a dozen or so places to stay looking for the perfect one which was also a good value for our money. We finally decided on Earino Suites and Villa and weren’t disappointed!
This was my second time in Santorini. During my first, I stayed in Fira which had easy and convenient access to everywhere else in the island. My problem with that was it was just too touristy. For my second time, I wanted to experience the touristy places but also have the opportunity to find seclusion after a long day. This was the most perfect place!
Penelope and Paul were very gracious hosts who ensured we had the best stay — going over and beyond to provide us with all the information we would need while on the island. Our suite was gorgeous and very stylish with the best panoramic view of Caldera. The breakfast was divine and filling and we enjoyed it while on the balcony. The nights were quiet which was what we hoped for and the days packed with adventure.
The villa is very close to the Akrotiri lighthouse (which in our opinion was a more romantic sunset experience than Oia) and the better beaches are only a few minutes away. You will also never run out of food places to try close by.
Since Earino is on the south end of the island, we would very much recommend renting a car, scooter, or an ATV (we rented an ATV) just to save time going to other parts of the island. Paul and Penelope can help you with this as well. With the ATV, we were able to get up before sunrise and experience Oia (Only 35 minutes away) and a gorgeous sunrise all to ourselves.
We had the best time in Santorini made even special because we stayed at Earino Suites and Villa! We will definitely be back.
