The hotel is not as fancy as those in Fira or Oia. However, this is a great place to stay if you 1) drive yourself 2) want to be close to beach 3) avoid crowds of tourists.
Ritsa is great at providing information and give you tips on where to go.
Black beach (privolos beach) is awesome and much better than red beach or Kamari beach! It’s 5 min by foot. We watched a beautiful sun rise there!
