Anthonas Apartments

My wife and I rent an apartment at this location and spent 4 nights. I am a frequent business traveler person and stay at franchise hotels. This was one of the rare cases that I ended up in a family business place. When we got to the apartment, Chris the owner, welcome us. He did not only did the regular check in, but he went beyond that and gave us advise about what to visit or where to go in Santorini. He made some tour recommendations and provided his personal opinions about some of them. We decided to follow his advise and we don’t regret it. We did not spent much money and have a great time in Santorini. Besides this, every day Chris gave us a great breakfast. We felt like staying at a relative house and not at a hotel. It was so delicious and special. The pool, place and apartment was excellent. To be honest, I felt better than staying at 4 stars hotel in Athens that costed us 3 times more per night. I would rather spent more time at Chris’s apartment. On the last day, Chris asked us about breakfast. We did not want to bother him with it because we planned to leave the apartment around 4:00 a.m. Chris went beyond and prepared breakfast for us to take to the airport. He prepared some sandwiches that were perfectly fine next day of our departure. I wish that that the expensive hotels give you such great service. My experience at Chris apartment is changing my view of small hotels vs. franchise hotels. If you want to have a great experience while you are in Santorini, I strongly recommend staying at Chris, apartments. The location is not walking distance to Fira, but renting a car was the best way for us to move around Santorini anyway. This made easy for us to get in and out to and from the apartment. Also, the pace is quiet and it has a beautiful sunrise view, which you can watch it from the apartments windows. I saw some places close to Fira and Oia, but they were noise and crowded because they were in the heart of the tourist area. Chris’ apartments did not have these issues. Overall, price, location and service

This is a little gem of a place! Everything was clean, tidy, well appointed, safe and well maintained with daily 'maid service'. The pool has sufficient loungers and shades for everyone staying; no need to 'save' your lounger! The breakfasts were huge portions, freshly made and different every day. Chris and Lia (owners) couldn't do enough to help, including the taxis to and from airport, recommending restaurants etc. The main Fira-Oia caldera walk is very close (down the hill, and turn left). There is a taverna a short walk down the hill, open evenings and serving simple food. There is a Carrefour supermarket up the hill, selling everything you could want if you want to self-cater in the accommodation kitchenette. The only 'down side' that the accommodation cannot change, is you may need to bear in mind if you don't rent a car or use taxi, there is NO pavement to walk on, and the road the property is on is busy (it is only about 100m walk on the edge of the road to reach the caldera path, but for this reason, if you have young children/pram/wheelchair/infirm walkers, for safety you should consider either leaving the property by taxi, or hire a car.) We had a great stay at Anthonas Apartments and would definitely come again.

Amazing stay! Chris and his staff were excellent! From cleaning the rooms daily to the morning homemade breakfasts, we could not have asked for much more in a stay. Beautiful complex with a nice pool and balconies to enjoy the Santorini weather on. Chris assisted us with a variety of questions we had about the island which we really appreciated.

We had a great three-night stay at this wonderful hotel on Santorini. Chris greeted us with a warm welcome and provided an orientation to the hotel and area. We were treated to a homemade breakfast each morning. The first morning, Chris went out of his way to bring our breakfast early as we had a tour to catch. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and come with a small kitchenette for cooking. The pool was a beautiful place to gather after a long day exploring the island. We would stay again and highly recommend!
