I stayed for 5 days in the Katerina Caldera View Studio which overlooked the beautiful Aegean Sea with the sunset directly in front of the property. It was quiet and peaceful compared to the tourist packed Fira which was 15-20min walk away. The owners treated us like family and welcomed us. The property provided free breakfast and free mini bar. I enjoyed the sunset from the balcony with a beer. Highly recommended place!

Amazing views and excellent service! They went above and beyond with their services. Far enough from the main areas of Fira that you get your own spot but also close enough to walk there.

Beautiful hotel with lovely staff and an amazing location. It was our honeymoon and they left a complimentary bottle of wine in our room along with some snacks, which we enjoyed whilst watching the sunset from our balcony. Eating breakfast (which was brought to our room every morning!) from our balcony, also was beautiful. Thank you!

Everything about this studio was absolutely amazing, the space itself, the incredibly attentive staff, and the breathtaking view. The studio was clean, spacious, and offered a peaceful and calm retreat. It was the perfect way to end our European tour. I sincerely hope to return soon!

The views are spectacular and being a short walk from the pulse of great shops and restaurants was advantageous. Smaro provides a very calming atmosphere.
