    I am so glad I chance upon your video. It's so helpful. What are your thoughts on either Theodora Suites Oia or Horizon Aeifos Suites. I am staying for 5 nights in early Oct. Want to be able to get both the sunset and caldera view. Do I need to book a accommodation at higher elevation to get a better caldera view?

    Hello Sebastian. I am from Singapore and we'd like to visit Santorini for our honeymoon. I've watched many videos of yours on TH-cam and I find them very helpful. however, I still am so nervous and don't know where to start and not sure how to plan our honeymoon. It'll be a great help if you could give a few pointers on what we should start first before we travel to Santorini. We're looking at mid April 2024, and we're keen in staying Oia, so low for choices, not sure which hotel to choose from. We're not looking for too luxury, from affordable to mid tier, and accessible and close to the local convenience and with a good view of course. Thank you so much

      Hi Evelyn. K&K doesnt have a great reputation, I've had met quite a few people who weren't all that happy with their experience with them. Athina Hotel is located in the center of Fira. In my video of the Best Caldera View Hotels, I explain why I don't think staying on the cliffside of Fira is a good idea : th-cam.com/video/TZpr0XbG1fI/w-d-xo.html

    Hello, I recently came across your videos and am starting to explore your suggestions. Thank you for all the valuable information! I have done some of research into the many places we plan to visit on our trip to Greece in early to late November and Santorini is our last stop. I have looked into Ode Villas Luxury Suites among some others. Do you have any experience with Ode? I am learning many places are closed for the season during the time we are there but have found places that are still going strong. I will continue searching your posts for other locations we will be stopping at on the mainland.

    Sebastian,
    My missus and I have watched about 20 of your videos and think they are all great! We will be landing in Santorini on July 4th. A few questions for you that I’d greatly appreciate if you’d answer:
    1) We are staying at Charisma Suites in Oia. Do you recommend?
    2) Is there a sunset to be seen from there?
    3) We like wine and plan on going to a winery on the island. What do you believe is the best for wine and ambiance/view?
    4) We will be in Chania after Santorini. I know you don’t have any content on Crete but by chance do you have any restaurant, olive oil, or vineyard recommendations?

    • @GreeceExplained

      Suites of the Gods. Their swimming pool (with caldera view) is available for everyone, not only the hotel guests. Its around 60€ for a set of 2 long chairs I believe. You need to reserve ahead of time though, it tends to sell out.
