Secret Gem Suites

My wife and I have had the most wonderful experience in this hotel. Everything just perfectly prepared, clean and beautiful. Nikolas the hotel supervisor was very helpful and gentle, he did all he could to make sure we were comfortable. I extremely recommend this hotel, for sure.

The owner Chris and his wife are AMAZING hosts. They make sure all of your needs are met and give you the best tips for places to go on the island and coordinate catamaran rides & attractions for you. The basket of breakfast is so tasty and so nice to get every morning. Even the housekeepers are great. There is no place on the island with a more BEAUTIFUL view from your deck than the Secret Gems Suites. I highly recommend this place and will be back again!!

We stayed one night in Yard suite, which is a little (but beautiful) house on the port - painted in pastel green. The place is really amazing, you are literally on the port, just a few steps away from the caldeira. The suite is very comfortable, super well renovated and decorated with good taste, with a tiny indoor pool which we found very relaxing and original. There is a terrace where you can sit and have your drinks and meals. This is an awesome place, near the stairs, but sufficiently private and just two steps from the fish restaurants. We stayed there with our two kids, aged 2.5 and 4.5. We have arranged their bed with some additional pillows for a 100% safe night. Chris and his wife were warm hosts. There welcomed us in a very professional manner, helped with the booking of a table for dinner and of a private boat tour. The breakfast was included and very generous. We recommend without any hesitation.

The hotel would not answer two phone calls prior to my arrival, treated me as if I was a burden when I called to discuss the airline's cancelation, and refused to refund any of my stay for a fault not my own.

My partner and myself stayed here for 7 nights in April 2023 (after taking the Blue Star Ferry from Piraeus near Athens to Santorini). Great location indeed, being located right in the beautiful Amoudi Bay. The actually quite small apartment was just OK (most of the space inside being taken up by the big bed and jacuzzi) , the breakfast which was brought to our apartment each morning by the supervisor was really amazing but the highlight for me was actually walking the 300 steps from Amoudi Bay below all the way up to Oia✌✌✌

We Stayed for our honeymoon , it was a different experience , never stayed in anything like that. The suites are embedded in the rocky mountain of ammoudy bay. You open your door and the sea and the bay is literally underneath you. Whats more magical is the 300 steps above the suites that lead to Oia village, the central santorini spot. Down the Stairs from our suite was an incredibly delicious fish restaurant Sunset Ammoudi, by far the best sea food pasta i ever had. Every Morning Nikos, the caretaker/hotel representative would leave a brekfeast basket in our little balcony. Nikos was helpful and very welcoming to our needs. Because the suites are up in the bay, sometimes the water supply is low or cut at times from the goverment. Yet, with the help of Nikos and the maintenance team, they would fix it immediately.

Absolutely terrible owner Chris. Consistently rude to all of us and blamed us for his own mistakes. We went on a sunset cruise that we booked through him. So little information was given we almost missed our boat to which he said was our fault. Upon chatting with others on the same cruise they said their hotel had arranged and communicated everything well ahead of time. The pictures on the website might as well have been CGI. The location is very enticing but the experience is beyond awful. No matter what, avoid staying here. If there are no other rooms anywhere, rent a car and sleep in it. The pictures attached are actual images 7/2023. I forgot to get inside pictures but they are about the same. Compare these to the website photos…talk about being catfished!!!

Such a special place. Do not miss if you are visiting Oia, Santorini. They were so, so hospitable, the breakfast each morning was charming, Nick was so sweet and helped at any moment with anything. The rooms were beautiful and view was indescribable. Thank you, thank you for the visit of a lifetime!

The owner simply doesn’t care about his customers. He was very rude and condescending to myself and fiancé. They offered to schedule transfers that either didn’t show up or were significantly late. They refused to communicate or provide relevant information via messaging and interrupted our last day by having us meet at suite only to be 30 min late. They also provided little to no info on sunset cruise they arranged and we almost missed it due to inaccurate info and time provided. When this feedback was shared the owner simply said we were wrong, he was the owner, and he didn’t care.
