Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 26 September 2026 · How we review hotels
Aelia Luxury Suites is best for travellers looking for an authentic stay in Karterados village with self-catering convenience. Guests score this hotel exceptionally well on Booking.com and speak highly of it on Google. Guests enjoy suites with functional private kitchenettes and an elevated pool with an expansive sun terrace. Wellness facilities are also available on-site. Note, however, that the property is situated at a distance from the caldera cliffside and requires a significant walk to reach the nearest beach.
Guests score it 9.0 out of 10 — the average across the 17 hotels we list on Santorini is 9.4.
What Guests Loved
- The pool area serves as the property's focal point, providing a quiet alternative to the crowded Oia overlooks. Its sun terrace and garden surroundings create a private atmosphere for guests looking to unwind away from the island's busiest hubs.
- Situated in the traditional village of Karterados, the hotel offers a grounded perspective of local life while remaining close to the airport. This location allows for easier navigation of the island compared to the congested pedestrian zones of Fira.
Things to Consider
- While Karterados is centrally located, those seeking the classic cliff-edge sunset views of Oia or Fira will need to travel by vehicle. The property offers a serene inland setting rather than a direct caldera-rim orientation.
- Reaching Karterados Beach requires a short drive or a walk of approximately 1.4 miles. Guests who prioritize immediate seaside access might find the inland location requires more logistical planning for daily swimming or beach activities.
Should you book it?
