Pros +
- A delightful room with a patio porch. Could make tea and eat a quiet meal in. Halfway between the charming upper village and intensely populated lower Thira. Easy walk to fresh fruit and small small shops. A great introduction to Santorini.
- My wife and I were prepared to stay in Fira or Imerovigli until someone online suggested Firostefani. Great choice. Walk to Fira is 10 scenic minutes. Quiet when you want to sleep and the nightlife is close to Fira if you want that. Maria very helpful with questions. I research the heck about places/areas to stay when we travel and I would do Villa Fotini again in a heartbeat. Queen bed, private bath/shower, balcony, air conditioning, space for dealing with luggage. Perfect. If you need a sitting room, fancy lobby, robes, private pool, then go somewhere else. $325 for 3 nights in late September.
- The property was in a great location. Close to the main road, bus stops, restaurants and bars. Maria gave some great recommendations when we checked in. I felt the service was very genuine and helpful. It was good to know your house for being at the office if we had any issues.
Cons -
- The bed was very hard. Staff not present most of the time, tho they were helpful when there.
- Very clean, super kind staff, very helpful
- Everything good

Perfect location, central, close to places we liked to visit
Very clean, super kind staff, very helpful
View ,location and cleanliness
Everything good
I will definitely start with the hostess Maria. What a nice person, full of positivity and energy. She will make sure that you have all that you need. My second point is the cleanliness and standards of the place. Everything looked and felt like new. This is a family business (ask Maria) and you can see the love that has been placed on every detail. It is very very clean, really a 10.Third is location. Right next to the church in Firostefani, 15 min walk to Fira and 15 to Imerovigli. Close to mini markets and coffee places, very convenient away from busy Fira centre.
I liked everything but maybe keep in mind that the property is next to a street, so there will be some traffic in the morning. Not a deal breaker because it compensates with the convenient location to the path to Fira just around the corner.
Beautiful place with a stunning view of the caldera at the back. Just 5/10 minutes walk from the shopping area in Fira. Maria was great, so helpful, couldn't do enough to help. TOP NOTCH.
Absolutely perfect stay! The location is fantastic, just a 3 minute walk to the famous Three Bells of Fira iconic viewpoint and the Church of Agios Gerasimos, and only about 10 minutes along the cliffside path to Fira town. Super convenient! Maria is truly the sweetest and best host ever. The room was spotless, the bed super comfy, and the balcony had a gorgeous sea view. The bathroom was small but very nicely designed, with strong and hot water at all times. There was even heating in the room! After a long day of traveling, it was just the perfect place to relax, take a hot shower, and feel completely at home. Would highly recommend!
Nothing!
Excellent location! I loved how clean everything was, thank you to the cleaning staff for that! I loved having a water heater, tea and coffee at my disposal. I loved the kindness and availability of María, the receptionist, to answer all my questions and requirements. Finally, Bravo! for airport service.
lovely and tidy...friendly staff...
smallish room..
It was kind of in the middle between Imerovigli and Fira. And both are within 15-20 minutes walking distance. If you missed Asian food, you could have them at the Fira Main Square. There’s splendid views of the caldera as you walk along the footpath facing the sea. There’s a mini market just 200 m away where you could buy water, fruits, eggs, milk, etc. Maria who helped us to check in was a smiley and helpful lady. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.
There’s a “cave-like” toilet without doors. Some water might splash out during shower. Other than this, it was a pleasant stay.
The location is near center, convenient to vitsit to famous places. Villa has very nice balcon. The room is very clean and nice. The villa owner is quite enthusiastic. 10/10
Great location, good facilities.
Wifi was a bit scratchy. That could have been related to our apartment location.
Friendly staff and very very clean! The location was brilliant also!
There isn’t anything that I didn’t like, the only thing I can think of that would have been a bonus is having a pool! But not really an issue for myself.
Very clean and cosy rooms with a perfect location - just outside of Fira at the start of Firostefani. Still close to everything while being away from the noise and crowds, with great restaurants nearby and sea views (onto both sides).
The fridge in the room was a tiny bit loud, but that may be just our room.
The room was perfect with the best shower I had my entire trip to the islands! There was a small balcony with chairs where I watched the sunrise. I traveled to Santorini with a big group of friends who stayed at a large resort nearby. By the second day some wished they had booked Villa Fotini! Very friendly staff and great communication regarding check-in. The room was spotless and had all the amenities that you needed. I highly recommend Villa Fotini and would definitely stay there again if I returned to Santorini!
Nothing - everything was perfect.
Our flight was diverted due to crosswinds. Maria was brilliant and Whatsapping us to give us access at any time and to reschedule the taxiA beautiful clean room with a balcony for dinner. Ideally situated a 15 minute walk from Fira and on the mountain path that runs to the north of the islandLots of restaurants in walking distance and Maria gave us brilliant recommendations. Local mini market
No dislikes but it is hilly. You can walk or bus anywhere but need to be fit
Great apartment! Everything was brand new, the air con was great, the apartment was clean and the communication with Maria was perfect, we checked in at 11:30 am. Very well located, close to shops, bars e restaurants.
There was no box/curtains in the shower, so after every shower the entire toilet was getting wet. Apart from that everything was fantastic.
Everything - host, location, apartment. It' only few steps from caldera. From balcony (double superior room) we could see both see sides. Beautiful sunrise and sunsets. Near the apartments is small market, nice restaurants, big public parking. We were delighted with the room, cleanliness, comfort, balcony and terrace in front of the entrance. Thank you for the slippers and beach towels. Very very nice service. thank you again for the possibility of early check-in. If I return to Santorini someday, I would definitely go to Villa Fotini. Firostefani is a beautiful town and much less crowded than Fira or Oia. It stole my heart.
it's just a little thing - a socket by the bed and additional hooks in the bathroom
Very clean, great view, beautiful setup. Loved the appliances, coffee, location, staff, and vibe! Thank you!! We will definitely recommend it!
