Ikastikies Suites

Amazing staff and perfect location. Nice and close to all the activity of Fira, but not right in the middle, so still very quiet. Bus stop and parking lot right across the street too. Outstanding sunset view. And the included breakfast....wow.

Liked it all. My only very minor issue was that the water pressure for the shower was pretty low. But that didn't detract from my enjoyment of the hotel.

EVERYTHING! This place was in a prime location where you had nice restaurants, a private and perfect sunset location, and it was incredibly quiet compared to the busier neighboring spots like Fira. The hosts couldn’t have been kinder and more helpful, the room was clean, the bed comfy, and the breakfast was delicious every morning. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone considering staying here!

Nothing, it was perfect!

The owner Giorgios was exceptional! True hospitality with heart. We had a wonderful time, enjoyed sunsets in the perfect location near many walkable restaurants and town of Fira. Highly recommend the catamaran daytime cruise and Onar restaurant. Perfect vacay vibes.

This property was perfect for us a a couple. The hosts and staff were fantastic and so friendly and helpful. The property was cleaned daily to a very high standard, the breakfasts were excellent, we didn’t need to eat again until the evening.We will definately be returning next year!

There was nothing we didn’t like ?

Everything was perfect: location, service, cleanliness, staff. We don’t have enough superlatives to describe our stay.

This was the best hotel ever for our family of four! George and Alexandra treated us like family, the views were unforgettable!! The location was super convenient, in the heart of Firostefani yet so quiet and tranquil. It was hard to leave!

nothing. it was perfect!

This was the most fabulous stay. Alexandra and George were absolutely amazing. Breakfast was exceptional. If you’re still thinking about booking-stop this is where you need to be! Location for us was fabulous steps from delicious food, slower pace than both Oia and Fira. Perfect place to explore the island with magnificent caldera views. This is the best spot to see the sunset. Perfect.

The most awesome location…breathtaking views of the island, sunset, and easy transport to other parts of the island. Very very close walking distance to lots of shops and local delicious restaurants. The most awesome hosts-George, Linda, and Nicoletta…anything you need they will accommodate and will do so with a massive smile. They treated us like family. The most awesome breakfast…we often were able to skip lunch as the breakfast was so hearty and delicious. They also offer a generous portion of local wine free of charge to watch the sunset. The most awesome vacation…we can’t wait to stay here again. I really can not rave enough about this place. Don’t hesitate, book today! My family and I stayed in the Spila Suite with the private pool and had the best time ever. We will be back for sure. Thank you George.

Nothing could have been better outside of the fact that we wished we could have stayed longer.

Excellent view from our room and balcony. Pool was perfect to cool off after a walk in the hot sun. Breakfast was good.

We had to wait until 0830 for coffee. Only coffee in the room was instant coffee. Steep stairs to get to our room.

Exquisitely designed, perfectly located, sunset is right in front of the room. Staffs are friendly, helpful and prompt in replying. Highly recommended!

An authentic cave house perfectly located near cafes and restaurants but away from the hustle and bustle of ‘downtown’ Fira, with a front row seat to the stunning sunsets from our beautiful pool suite. Georgio and Nicoletta were perfect hosts with too many kindnesses to mention.

We loved everything!

We had a wonderful 3-night stay at the suites. From the start, Giorgio was a fantastic and helpful host, he greeted us at the nearby lot where we were dropped off, and helped us to our beautiful room. Each morning we had a great breakfast of pastries, eggs and amazing yogurt and fruits. When my mother fell ill our first night, Giorgio called us a taxi at 4am and came out to help us get medical aid! Afterwards, he ensured her comfort and even brought a room heater from his own home. He showed us the meaning of gracious hospitality and we thank him for such a wonderful trip. He gave us many recommendations for nearby restaurants and was always there for a quick hello or chat. We loved that the location is outside the main part of Fira and was much quieter than the busy parts of town. Each night we had a beautiful walk back from dinner, and would recommend staying here to get a fuller experience of Santorini.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay here for 3 days, in the offseason (late March). Giorgios and his staff were amazingly friendly and attentive. The breakfasts were delicious and plentiful. The cave villa was so well kept and cute and the views were spectacular. It was an easy walk up to Imerovigli or down to Fira so tons to see and do by foot. I highly recommend this place and will certainly stay here again if I ever return to Santorini.

I would say everything about this place was nice. The suite was beautiful and we could watch the Caldera sunset from our patio without having to go anywhere. We love the team of people who worked there from the manager (Nikoleta) to Nikos to the lady who made our awesome breakfast to the lady who did housekeeping. The hotel does not have it's own parking as it is literally on the side of the cliff but, in October, we had no issues with finding local FREE public parking by the church which is a few steps away. There are also numerous restaurant and shopping choices nearby.

There is absolutely nothing we would say was not nice.

Amazing location with great sunset views. Staff is very friendly and went the extra mile to help and make us feel welcomed. We stayed here for 3 days and this place is very central to Santorini. A lot of good resteraunts nearby. 10 min walk to Fira marketplace. Very yummy breakfast. Large parking area nearby.

Ikastikies Suites were faultless. From the minute we arrived and were greeted by Nicoletta and Giorgos to the final ‘yasou’ they could not have been more kind or welcoming. Nicoletta is a mine of information and efficiently booked restaurants (Aktaion is superb) sailing trips and taxis. All the staff are delightful, the rooms beautifully presented and immaculately clean and breakfast delicious! Firostefani is an ideal middle-ground for exploring to Oia or Fira while avoiding crowds. The suites are an oasis to relax in, with incredible views across to the islands and along the coastline. We loved our stay. Thank you.

The view, the room size, the room decor and design, the location, the friendly and helpful staff, the breakfast, and the general vibe were all just fantastic.

I cannot think of much that could have been better.

Wow, wow, wow, is the best description of Ikastakies Suites. We were blown away at the location, and room. The view from our private balcony was breathtaking. I can't say enough about the breakfast. It was made to order, and so much quality food. The cook made our favorite omelet of feta, tomato, and bell peppers for us as a request. This has been one of our all time favorite room we have stayed in throughout our travels.

Everything was topnotch. I can't even think of anything I didn't like.

We loved everything about our stay at Ikastitikes Suites! It is perfectly located between Fira and Imerovigili, within walking distance of both. Overlooking the caldera, the daytime, night time and especially sunset views are spectacular. The suites are lovely, comfortable and well equipped, and the hospitality is exceptional. You won't believe the amazing breakfasts! The owner Giorgos, and his delightful, patient and always helpful manager, Nicoletta, along the attentive staff, make you feel like the most important people on the planet!If you have the opportunity to stay at Ikastitikies jump at it! You will love it!

There was nothing we didn't like about Ikastitikes Suites. There are lots of stairs which some people may find challenging, but that is typical of Santorini!

The view from this hotel was beyond spectacular. Only 4 rooms in the complex made it nice for privacy. The staff was beyond helpful. We arrived late and they waited up for us, made sure we got dinner as well as helped get our bags up and down the stairs.

Everything was great, but be advised there are a lot of stairs.
