Hotels near Santorini International Airport - JTR, Fira

Fira is awesome! I personally liked it better than Oia. Great shops, food, and things to do! Many lovelt restaurants are in walking distance, and this includes formal, sit-down places and also to-do, take away spots. It feels very safe! It is clean. Fun night life is you are looking for it but also easy to relax in your own place and not feel bothered by nightlife. Things to do include: Hiking to Oia (see note below), beaches (black sand is so cool!), horse riding on the beach, renting atv/scooter, shopping, cooking class, boat ride, Amoundi Bay & cliff jumping near Oia port (see note below). *Hiking to Oia: super cool!! Highlyt recommend if you liking hiking. Wear sneakers at a minimum (no sandals), terrain can be rocking at times, lots of dust, lots of ups and down hills. Go early in the day!! It gets hot fast and you feels it durig the walk. *Amoundi Bay & cliff jumping: you have to go down many steps to get to the port of Amnoubdi Bay...From the main area of Ammoudi Bay, continue walking past the seafood tavernas along a rocky dirt path. There is a gate up but people just walk around it. The beach is small and rocky. It gets busy quickly, Its easy to get into the water there however because it is quite shallow. The cliff jumping is fun! You have to swim out and climb up to get to the platform but easy enough for children to do! Favorite spots: coffe = coffee lab; quick food place = Yogi ; restaurant (greek food) = triana taverna

Hire a Car if You would like to visit the rest of Santorini... Taxis are expensive and You need to negotiate prices or You will be ripped off...no Bus to Vourvoulos but easy to park your Hire Car. Great Village Location!

Having travelled to all parts of the island, we thought Firostefani was the best location as it was relatively quiet, easy to walk to Firo bus station and had excellent views of the sunset. A nice selection of local restaurants.

This is a very special old house from the nineteen century which has been renovated with tremendous taste and respect for the original structure by Anna. The house features a very special cupole-cross-like structure to better resist to earthquakes. The ceiling in the middle of the bedroom is probably more than 4 meters high... The village Mesa Goniá still preserves some of the original atmosphere. With a 15 minutes walk from the house, mostly between vineyards, you can visit the magnificent Panagia Episcopi a beautiful small church dating back to the XI century. Anna drove us to a breakfast place nearby. The night before she insisted to drive us to the nearby restaurant (we eventually decided to walk)... She has been incredibly kind to us and all three of us found chatting with her very stimulating

A quiet area. Locals live here. Very friendly area. Local restaurants are very good and prices are low with huge portions. Definitely a change from Oia. A bit of a walk to bus stop and busses/stops are a bit tricky to navigate.
