We had a wonderful stay at Alizea Villa because of Tijana’s service. Being summer in Santorini most accommodations increased their prices but Alizea remained affordable. Our flight arrived very early at 3:00am in the morning and Airbnb only showed availability for the next 2 nights so I booked them through Airbnb. I messaged the hotel asking for recommendation on where to stay the night before since checkin is usually 15:00. Tijana said we can stay an extra night at the hotel and arranged for a driver to pick us up at the airport (both for a reasonable fee). We were grateful that Georgia was waiting for us and let us checkin at 4:00 am! They thoughtfully provided us with a free bottle of water since they knew it’ll be hard to find water at the time we landed. Santorini’s tap water is not drinkable.
In the morning I met Tijana in the reception office and she gave me an overview of the island, what to see, and tips on where to eat with moderate prices. She also treated me to yogurt and tea in their breakfast room. I hear they serve continental breakfast for 6 euros but didn’t try it.
Alizea is located within a 10 minute walk to Fira or 15 minutes to Firostefani. We enjoyed the caldera walk from Fira to Firostefani.
Our double room included a side day bed and overlooked the pool. The room was comfortable except the shower area was small. The whole bathroom floor is tiled with a drain so it’s normal to get water outside of the shower area.
