Apanemo Hotel & Suites

Apanemo is the perfect place for those who want to discover Santorini and at the same time have the opportunity to relax. It is located away from the noise and lots of people of Oia and Fira. The staff are all very friendly and attentive. Dimitra is a very attentive person and available to guests. She recommended a boat trip for us, and we simply loved it! The hotel has a beautiful view, the rooms are spacious and very comfortable. Varied breakfast.

The staff were exceptional- very helpful- carried bags to room while we had a complimentary drink and "meet and greet" with staff who gave us a map and several excellent recommendations of where to go. The room was beautiful and the views were literally beyond words. Parking was easy and on site! We would definitely recommend this place! We would also recommend this town OVER OIA. The reason is the lighthouse sunset view was truly inspiring! The town and beaches are beautiful- the food and people were amazing. There were no ridiculous crowds and you can enjoy the experience. OIA is beautiful, as is, the entire island. The bigger cities like Oia and Fira were pretty and fun to walk, however, we didn't really spend much time OIA as it was too crowded with a steady stream buses arriving. We travelled in late October so, I can't even imagine what the summer would look like- definitely not our style of travel. We had a car, so drove the island- it is a beautiful place to visit and well worth the ferry ride (which was also beautiful).

I had the absolute joy of staying for a while at Apanemo in Akrotiri, and honestly, I can’t recommend it enough. From the moment I arrived, I felt more like I was visiting old friends than checking into a hotel. The staff are some of the kindest, most helpful people I’ve ever met, always smiling, always ready to assist with anything. Nothing ever felt like too much for them. Apanemo is like a tiny village, and really doesn't feel like a hotel, it's quite awesome what the owners did there. And the view… where do I even begin? The Caldera stretched out before me like a painting. I spent quiet afternoons just sitting outside with a glass of wine, soaking it all in. It’s the kind of place that slows time down in the best way. Apanemo is tucked away on the calmer side of Santorini, in the village of Akrotiri, which I personally loved. It’s peaceful, serene, and feels more like real island life. That said, I’d definitely recommend having a car if you’re planning to explore the island easily. I really want to emphasise that Akrotiri is not Fira or Oia. This is a much more relaxed side of the island. To the entire team at Apanemo: thank you from the bottom of my heart. You made me feel completely at home, and this stay is something I’ll never forget. I look forward to seeing you all again.

The view from our room was breathtaking. The staff is exceptional—truly outstanding. They are incredibly nice and go above and beyond to ensure your stay is comfortable. A thoughtful touch was the takeaway breakfast bag they provided us since we needed to check out early. The pool looked nice (and the view is out of this world), though we couldn't use it due to high winds and not-so-great weather. The location was convenient; we rented a car and easily explored the southern part of the island, which we found to be the best area of Santorini. Driving made it simple to reach Fira and nearby beaches (reachable in 5 to 15 min) . The breakfast was excellent; they give you a menu the day before so you can choose what you'd like. The room was very comfortable. They have a bar with a beautiful view where you can Get drinks and coffee from (also lunch, although we did not try it). Thank you to Heleni, Isabel, and Irias for the warm welcome!

Property is a gem. Extremely beautiful views, kind and friendly staff ready any time to answer to your needs and wants. The breakfast is also very tasty and plenty of choices to choose from… The fresh orange juice made our day and the espresso coffee pods will offer you a restaurant like experience.
