Smaro studios is a beautiful property with private suites facing the caldera. It's worth noting that it is a 10-15 minute walk downhill to Fira, although the bus stop is close and viable, and that each evening you'll fight the uphill on a full stomach. The manager/owner is helpful and the suites are kept cleaned daily. Ultimately a very nice getaway and would rebook again.

The property was in a perfect location. We found that our sunset view of the caldera was best from our hotel balcony and private hot tub. The only things we would request be improved are the temperature on the hot tub as it was more of a “cool tub” and the simple addition of a “Do Not Disturb” sign for the housekeeper. The owner and son were wonderful and very delightful to work with. Unfortunately, the housekeeper would come without fail every time we would take a shower which placed unnecessary pressure on us. All can be solved with the addition of a DND sign. Overall phenomenal stay with minor improvements. We loved Smaro Studios.

Great room great views great staff
The stay at Smaro Suites was excellent. The room was very spacious and clean. It had all the amenities you needed and the location was great. The team there is also great. They went above and beyond in helping to make all requests and accomodations. Whatever we needed we asked and they made it happen. They are very nice and allowed us to stay on the property and even use a Jacuzzi after we checked out and waited until our flight in the evening. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone searching for a great place to stay with good views and a very friendly staff!

Stunning view of the caldera!
What an absolutely breathtaking location! You cannot beat the view of the Luxury Suite. Every morning, we had our incredible breakfast while sitting on our deck looking out. Wow. That view will stay with me forever. Loved the location, Fira was great and the sunset from my deck was just as great as the one in Oia. If you are on the fence, this place is 100% worth it. Just a note, if you need to communicate prior to your reservation, send an email if you dont speak Greek! I called multiple times and the nice lady simply couldn't understand me, nor I her. Email was the best way to get answers.

We loved staying at Smaro. Everyone was really nice and friendly. Maria and son Mike (owners) were awesome as were the cleaning lady and the man who brought breakfast to our balcony each morning (didn’t get their names) and the view is fantastic. Room nicely clean each day. Loved having a private balcony even though we had a courtyard room. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Views are fantastic. We spent a couple of nights just sitting on the balcony to watch sunset because it’s as good as anywhere. Don’t get why people think Oia is so great and it’s a gong show at sunset, good luck escaping after lol. The area is quiet in the evening compared to Fira but Fira only 10-15 minutes walk, uphill on way back. There’s a gyro place a minute away that serves a variety of to go meals and some nights we just got a 6 euro gyro and ate it on the balcony with drinks watching sunset. It was actually better than the 75 euro dinner with a view we had in Fira. The view wasn’t better there, just different. You don’t need to go broke on Santorini if you don’t want to. Maria helped us with finding a caldera cruise and we did the King Thira ship that goes to the volcanos in middle and lunch/swim on Thirassia. It’s all you need and cheap. Walk to Oia is cool too and bus back cheap. Also rented an ATV at Tonys (Maria suggestion). It’s nearby and cheap, awesome fun way to see the island. At end, walked to bus stop and got to airport for 1.6 euro each. Highly recommend Smaro.
