Pros +
- Everyone is so friendly! This is a great place if you are looking for a hotel a bit off the beaten path.
- The breakfast was amazing!! I couldn't believe the size of our room! We did lose power for a bit after we arrived, but it all worked out.
- We got water included. Breakfast was ok. We got it delivered to our room. Orange juice was fake. Staff responded quickly.
Cons -
- The pillows on the bed were very uncomfortable.
- I picked this place specifically bc of 3 beds. We were 3 people. We got 2 beds and Harris, the staff said only in summer they give 3 beds. We should get some of the money back. Also no shampoo. We wished the jacuzzi was warm. We couldn’t use it in October. My twin bed was very hard and i couldn’t sleep. I asked for a foam or comforter to make it better.
- - its a hike to reach the hotel, it gets tiring especially by the end of the day- theres no parking designated to their visitors visitors of the hotel its a hustle finding a spot every day- the room needs deep cleaning, dust everywhere - the mattress is so stiff just like sleeping on the floor- the towels need to be changed, they’re so scratchy - the bathroom got mold on the walls, shower floor paint were chipped and it smelled like sewer (they tried fixing it by putting air refresher) but then it got worse mixed with the smell - tv so old you cant connect your phone- Jacuzzi wasn’t not working and leaking water everywhere - breakfast, less then basic and doesn’t have any flavor

I liked the jacuzzi
It wasn’t clean enough The location wasn’t convenient especially if you carry luggage You can’t go with a car you need to walk upscale The bathroom didn’t have any certain so all the water after shower was all over the bathroom and roomThe ceiling very short
Suites are located in a quiet and authentic Greek village, where the sunsets are amazing. Breakfast included was a plus! We also enjoyed the staff’s genuine kindness.
Walking from the parking to the suites may not be appropriate for families with little ones or in general people with reduced mobility.
The air conditioning is really good also we had a lot of space we also liked the tv
You walk a lot of stairs to get up there yellow water came out of the sink and breakfast was the same and no options every single day
Our stay at Fava Eco Suites was amazing! The accommodations are a walk up a hill. They arrange a porter to help bring luggage up which was essential for heavy suitcases as the walk up is on uneven pavement. It is about a 15-20 min walk to Oia, but we found the walk pretty easy even with our 4 kids ages 9-17. (You could also get a taxi to take you there if you wanted.) Harris at the front desk was helpful, kind, friendly, and very quick to help. We loved the outdoor jacuzzi tub and enjoyed lounging in that on our one afternoon we were there in the room. Wifi worked great as did air conditioning. We arranged a private tour guide (Stavros Afentoulidis [email protected] for anyone interested) to take us around Santorini for a full day which we found highly worth the expense since we "saw it all". This accommodation FYI is a distance from Fira so one could drive it if you had a car, taxi may be costly, and there may be a bus but we did not take one. The breakfast here was filling and plentiful, and they even dropped off breakfast the night before our departure day since we had an early departure. Though we only spent 2 nights here, we very much enjoyed the stay and would happily stay here again!
Nothing!
Perfect accomodation, very welcoming and attentive staff, very clean, delicious breakfast. Lovely pedestrian area.
A delicious continental breakfast was brought to my door every morning. Nice touch! The property manager, Harris, was exceptionally accommodating and helpful.
Not applicable.
Close to Oia but not so noisy as Oia. Nice hot tub with jacuzzi. Nice manager and helper with heavy luggage.
Kitchen facility is a bit old.
My family and I had a wonderful experience. The manager, Harris, treated us with such kindness by arranging transportation and introducing us to the best sight seeing spots. The entire staff were incredibly friendly and a delight to converse with. We were upgraded to bigger room which was incredible and extremely cleanly. I highly recommend this place for all families and couples!
I have a pleasant stay.Everything was amazing, the traditional village with the picturesque alleys.The distance from Finikia to Oia by feet is about 10-15 minutes it depends how fast you walk.
My recent stay to Santorini and the traditional village in Finikia was nothing short of magical.The accommodation were spectacular thoughtfully designed to reflect the traditional Cycladic architecture.The staff is very attentive.
We had an amazing time at Fava Suites during our recent stay. The room was comfortable and well-appointed, and we enjoyed exploring many beautiful places nearby. Its proximity to Oia, within walking distance, makes it a fantastic choice for travelers who want convenience without the overwhelming crowds. Highly recommend this spot for a peaceful and memorable experience.
We had a wonderful stay! The place was beautiful, spotless, and full of traditional Cycladic charm. The location was perfect—close to Oia but away from the crowds. A special mention to our host, Haris, who was incredibly welcoming and helpful. He provided great recommendations and made our stay even more enjoyable.
Excellent! The room was incredible. The view was breathtaking. Great location. The staff was polite and helpfull. Photos and description are accurate. Highly recommended!
We had a great time! The place was suite was spacious and clean, and the location very peaceful. The staff was friendly, and the location was perfect for exploring Finikia and Oai.
