Santo Pure Oia Suites and Villas

We arrived at the beautiful Santo Pure Oia Suites & Villas for our 10 night honeymoon and was pleasantly greeted with a cool towel and welcome drink. Check in was nice and easy and everyone at reception was very nice and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for them. We were taken to our suite (603) by Kris on a buggy and on the way he gave us a tour of where everything was such as the main pool, spa and footpath to Oia. The suite was lovely and had a sea view and private pool. We had a honeymoon note for us. There is plenty of towels in the room with separate ones for the pool. There is air con, a fridge, hair dryer, iron and ironing board, kettle, coffee machine and a safe available in the room along. We also had fresh fruit, prosecco and water for us on our arrival. Water was restocked twice a day and housekeeping came everyday. There was also a turn down service and little treats were left every evening for us including homemade chocolates, herbal tea and snack bars. The surroundings are stunning and the sunset views are spectacular. There is a main pool but all the neighbourhoods within the complex also have a communal pool which are equally stunning. We went to our communal pool and generally we had it to ourselves. The sunbeds are comfortable with plenty of parasols available and even the offering of a mini shoulder massage whilst sat around the pool. Breakfast is a buffet and options are plentiful ranging from continental to hot selections, pancakes and pastries with even further options available. All the food was delicious but the spinach pie and fresh orange juice was amazing! We also had a floating breakfast one morning which was exquisite. Concierge is available and they are very helpful and arranged our floating breakfast, wine tour and private dinner for us. All of the staff are caring, friendly and very helpful. A special thank you to Konstantinos and Eleutheria (apologies if I have spelt those wrong) for making our evenings in the bar fun and special! There are no views of the caldera from the suites, but that means you get to enjoy the sunsets away from the crowds and the main town area is a short 5-10 min walk along the pathway. It is slightly uphill so wear comfy shoes! Slip on sandals were fine but I wouldn't recommend it wearing heels. There is a vast selection of restaurants in the town that offer beautiful views of the caldera but you may want to make a reservation when it is peak season (this was not an issue for us travelling 10th - 20th September). Sunset was approximately 19.30hrs and Oia gets very busy as it offers spectacular views. Overall I cannot recommend Santo Pure Oia Suites & Villas highly enough, it really is the place of calmness, serenity and tranquility and is simply amazing with the best staff and I cannot wait to return.
