Orabel Suites Santorini (Adults Only)

We can’t recommend this hotel highly enough for a holiday in Santorini! Firstly, we had difficulties with our flight on the way to Santorini and arrived very late at night. Despite the late hour, the hotel staff were all so accommodating and helpful, in arranging an airport transfer for us, offering us food on arrival, being so welcoming when we arrived. The owner Jannis is so accommodating that it feels like staying at a friends house. The suite that we stayed in was absolutely beautiful, and was maintained by the wonderful staff to be absolutely spotlessly clean throughout our stay. All of the suites have a private hot tub and terrace area, which we loved. There’s not many rooms at the hotel which means that it’s lovely, relaxing and quiet, just what we needed. The pool is beautiful, well maintained and lovely to swim in. The whole design of the poolside area and bar is beautiful and it’s lovely to look at whilst you’re relaxing in the sun. The bar has a great range of drinks and food and the bartender Christopher is so friendly and makes excellent drinks. Breakfast at the hotel is absolutely amazing and far surpassed our expectations, both in terms of quality and quantity. Every day there was made to order coffee, fresh orange juice, fruits, breads, pastries, the most amazing Greek yogurt and homemade granola that I’ve ever had, followed by a wonderful cooked breakfast and then a dessert. It was all absolutely delicious. Also, one of us is vegan, and they were wonderfully accommodating and provided out of this world breakfasts for him. It was far beyond what we expected. We loved the location of this hotel. It’s so peaceful in this part of the island and we were so grateful to be away from the crowds. It’s just a short walk down to a lovely black sand beach and there’s many fantastic restaurants within walking distance. We also absolutely couldn’t have made our holiday as good without the recommendations from Sofia. We were just there for a short time and she was really invested in making sure we had a great time. She’s very knowledgeable about restaurants and excursions, and was always so accessible if we had questions. We found that arranging things such as car hire through the hotel was a) so easy, the car was dropped to us at the hotel and then picked up 24 hours later and b) so reasonably priced that we were pleasantly shocked. Everything that she recommended to us was brilliant and we felt like we’d had a custom made holiday. We planned this trip fairly last minute and booked Orabel on the basis of their excellent reviews. We can now say that those reviews are thoroughly deserved. We both travel a lot and feel that the Orabel suites was the best hotel we’ve ever stayed in. Thank you to all of the wonderful staff who really go above and beyond to make it a dream holiday.

This was our 3rd visit to Orabel. As we only manage to have one week abroad per year, we returned to Orabel as we know just how beautiful it is and how much we are looked after by Jannis; Sophia; Lina; Chris and the team. The service they provide is second to none and Lina makes easily the best breakfast in Santorini, simply homemade delicious 3 course breakfast. The rooms are throughly cleaned on a daily basis and they are spotless. Sophia knows all the best places; restaurants; bars on the whole island, ask her for ideas, she will deliver and always with a smile. Chris at the pool bar loves to share a joke and a laugh whilst making delicious cocktails. Yamas see you in 2024!!!

Lovely place. We enjoyed our private hot tub and the room was very nice. Extremely delicious and creative breakfast each morning. Very helpful owner and manager. The owner did a very informative orientation of Santorini for us when we arrived. Free parking lot which was so nice since we rented a car. Highly recommend. Enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful hotel, very warm and helpful staff. The breakfasts on your own terrace were one of the best we've ever had. It is a short walk to many great restaurants, beachfront bars and a great beach. The hotel has an agreement with one of the restaurants to get umbrellas and chaise lounges on the beach.

If you're looking for a quiet place to relax and unwind, away from the hubbub of tourists and traffic in Fira and Oia, you'll have a wonderful time at Orabel Suites. On first impression, the location may seem isolated, but the property is only about a five minute walk to a quiet portion of Perivolos, the famous Black Beach, where you'll find excellent local restaurants just around the corner. If you like to walk, there's a stretch of three miles along the Mediterranean Sea. Orabel Suites is small, contemporary but comfortable, thoughtfully designed, and impeccably maintained, with separate entrances for each room facing a sizeable pool and soothing water feature. The lounge chairs are roomy and comfortable. We chose to upgrade our room to one with a private jacuzzi, which we thoroughly enjoyed. A complimentary, made-to-order, three-course breakfast is served each morning in your room or poolside, and lunch items may be purchased during the day. The staff could not be nicer or more accommodating. Cleaning service was consistent and efficient. The staff answered all of our questions, arranged transportation for us from the ferry, and can also assist with guided tour reservations and excursions. My husband, who loves resorts, raved about this one, and even I, not as focused on accommodations, will remember my stay here.

Wonderful team of staff that were very helpful during our stay. The beach and restaraunts 10-15 min walk away. Hotel facilities were great too!

This place is amazing. Arrived early evening on a Sunday and was greeted by a friendly helpful gentleman who ran the poolside bar. We waited with a drink for Sofia who within a few minutes came over to greet us and check us in. We were brought into a very welcoming reception room where the lovely Sofia quickly checked us in and gave us local information, tips and advice and explained the excursions and car hire etc. We booked the superior suite which was absolutely spotless and very beautiful, we were delighted with our room. I won’t list everything but the bath sheets were very welcome compared to the usual bath towels and the dressing gowns and slippers were very useful for the hot tub! The breakfast, oh my Lord! The team put together a course of three dishes which is either delivered to your room or you can have at the poolside terrace. I have never enjoyed breakfast so much anywhere in the world! it was a pure delight every morning. The pool - this is a lovely area, soft music plays daily, the sun beds are of excellent quality, oak bases with adjustable head rests and thick mattresses, towels are placed on the beds every morning and there is absolutely no need to get up at silly o’clock to reserve one. The location is great, within a two minute walk you can find a mini supermarket and within five minutes you can be at the beach where there are an abundance of restaurants and bars to choose from during the day into the night. The suites are about 20 minutes from Thira and 45 into Oia. We had a car for the full seven days but I honestly don’t think this is needed unless you want to explore the island fully, three days will get you to the main attractions and Sofia would be able to organise car hire for you. The team - housekeeping did an amazing job, not only was our room immaculate, the outside areas were also tended to throughout the day. Yannis the owner, a lovely guy came to meet us on our first morning to check everything was in order, Sofia could not have been more welcoming, helpful and friendly and the lady who cooked the breakfast and the bartender are all wonderful, they all mucked in to make sure the Orabel ran as smoothly as possible. I cannot praise The Orabel Suites enough, I’m so glad that all my research paid off and I have absolutely no hesitation in making a recommendation. Thank you all for making mine and my husband’s stay in Santorini so memorable. This is a very special place indeed, I have to go back and soon to collect the piece of my heart which I left there ❤️
