Nicolas is very nice and welcoming us warmly. My husband tripped over on the slop, Nicolas helped us to lift our luggages from the hotel to the carpark.

Stunning sunset views! We loved our suite with the jacuzzi tub on the balcony that we used every night for sunset :). Breakfast was waiting for us every morning on the balcony as well which we really enjoyed! Staff were excellent! Quick to respond and provide any items we needed. Overall an amazing stay and experience! We hope to come back one day and will be recommending this place to our family and friends! The only thing that is important to know, which was not an issue for us, is the walk up to Oia. It isn’t far but it can be a challenge for many.

Great customer service. Nikos was really nice!

Very bad surroundings. The description was incorrect and deceptive. The area outside had dumped construction materials and old furniture. Our experience was terrible and our holiday was ruined staying at this property.

Our concierge Niko made things so easy for us. He was ready to help anytime.

Lovely apartment in the harbour area. 300 steps up to the town which would be a nightmare if you’re not fully fit. No local parking so suitcases up or down the steps are hard work. Well worth it for us

Excellent home away from home. Thank you to Chris for the easy airport transfer arrangements and a huge shoutout to Nik for his hospitality with the daily breakfast and local recommendations!

It’s close to OIA village and castle. One needs to have strong legs to walk but very clean, staff are helpful and friendly. Couple good restaurants close but anyways nothing is too far for a car in Santorini

The staff at Secret Gem Suites are incredibly kind, thoughtful, and helpful. They consistently reached out to see if we required anything, from ride transfers to breakfast preferences and more. We felt very spoiled and would definitely recommend anyone visiting Santorini to stay with them.

We loved our stay at the Secret Gem Suites. The location is great if you're okay staying in Amoudi Bay for Dinner, or willing to walk up the steps to Oia. The room was updated and the view is unbeatable. Hightly recommend!

Secret Gem was fantastic. we loved being near the water and having some restaurants with beautiful views just below our suite. We had a lovely deck to sit out and watch the sunset cruise boats go by. My only recommendation would be to put out a few umbrellas for shade as it was blisteringly hot. The host was beyond helpful and so friendly. Breakfast was delivered in cute baskets each morning and was plenty for two and then some. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

This property was absolutely incredible and unique. The property manager, Nick, was excellent and always available - great communication, delivered an abundance of breakfast daily (included in the cost!), delivered laundry service, replenished anything we needed in the villa, coordinated taxis for us etc. He was excellent! The property itself was stunning and better in person than the photos (when does that ever happen?!) - the rooms were so unique, the balcony/terrance was so spacious and just spectacular to sit out there right on the water in a private space. Very quiet and peaceful in Ammoudi Bay, incredible restaurant options. Sunset Ammoudi was our favorite, we went multiple times. The town of Oia is right above the area -- you can either call a taxi (the property will assist), or walk up the cliff steps. The walk has stunning views, and highly recommended doing so at least once. The only thing to note: Taxis cannot get to Ammoudi Bay within the hours close to sunset. It is very difficult for them to get down to the Bay due to traffic of people coming to Oia for sunset. Dinner in Oia for sunset (must make reservations) is not to be missed. But you will need to be in Oia hours before if you plan on a taxi and can return to the bay after 9pm. Not a big deal, just something to note! Once you go to Oia and see the crowds, you will be so thankful you are staying in peaceful Ammoudi Bay! Cannot recommend this stay enough - book now!!

WOW! WOW! WOW! Secret Gem's is amazing! Everything about it is magical. The location is breathtaking and so charming (despite the stairs down - don't let that stop you if you can walk stairs uphill) We stayed in both The Yard and The Evolution Suite both were fantastic. The majority of our family stayed in The Yard and it was perfect. We so enjoyed having a yummy breakfast outside nearly on top of the sea watching the boats and sipping our espresso. We even enjoyed the fun spa inside the unit. Each bed was clean, comfortable with beautiful views of the sea. The Evolution Suite was romantic and Wow! The view! The deck! Amazing! Relaxing in the hot tub with a glass of wine watching the sunset will never be matched. I cannot say enough for the hospitality of Nick and Chris. Nick was always there to help us with any small detail of our visit. We had a disruption in travel for my husband and daughter and Chris even offered to give them two complimentary catamaran trips because they missed time in Santorini! Both Nick and Chris were so thoughtful. Your search for an unforgettable hotel in Santorini just ended. Secret Gem's is it!

We just stayed 4 nights here and really enjoyed the stay. There were 3 of us in Nest suite. It was tight but definitely manageable. It was clean and comfortable and the AC worked well. What really made the stay was Nikos. He is such a nice guy. He was always available to be reached via text and was quick to respond and very informative and helpful. Breakfast was delivered every morning about 9 and it was surprisingly good. Parking here in my opinion is really not possible except early in the day or scooters. All of the boats pick up and drop off here so it’s completely jammed and impassible in the late afternoon until after sunset when everything clears out. There are steps to walk up to Oia. They say 278, however they are kind of numbered and it was about 230 according to these numbers. I’m not in great shape at all and I only had to stop twice. There are also donkey rides for 10 euros each. The other option is transfer coordinated through Nikos for about 20-25 euros to Oia. We usually went up in the mid morning, ate lunch and sometimes dinner in Oia and then came back down. Make sure your phone is charged for the light so as to be able navigate the steps and avoid the donkey poo after dark. We also had friends staying up in Oia. It was nice to be able to come down and get away from the village in the evenings and being so close to the water was nice. There are 3 or 4 restaurants to choose from and there is an ice cream shop as well that sells water, beer, wine and snacks.

There were water outages more than twice in one night two days and I sometimes couldn’t take shower and enjoy the bathtub due to that :/ The hotel said they heavily depend on the public water facilities in the area and I had to do nothing but waiting. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful which was great but you should know you might not always have water or have only limited amount of water or water pressure…

The manager onsite Nikolas was superb. He presented us a map and explained the entire island hotspots that we may be interested in and why. He was always there to help and answer questions and the place itself has an amazing view from the residence. You are in the culture of the bay and this staff goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome.

The place was very nice. We dealt with Nick from the staff while we were there. Nick was an amazing wealth of information as well as assisting us. The sunsets were amazing from our room. Was great location just had to climb the stairs to get up to Oia. The privacy was great. Highly recommend this place.

We absolutely loved our stay at Secret Gem!! The location and scenery couldn’t be better. Nick, the property manager was absolutely amazing with everything from giving recommendations to his kindness! The walk up to Oia, was our favorite cardio activity! Breakfast delivered in the basket every morning will be greatly missed! Thank you Chris & Nick, we will be back!!!

Room that we booked was not given to us and no compensation was provided. Also no communication surrounding the lack of amenities unless we climbed steep stairs. Very inaccessible for one of our travellers.

Chris was so helpful and The Nest was such a fun place to stay! Secret Gems is just that, a gem of a place.

Awesome location and service

Our overall experience was excellent. The sunset from our patio was unparalleled. Chris and his wife were really helpful in helping us navigate our activities around the island.

Amazing view!

Everything was amazing, Host was very helpful, cleaning lady and gentlemen were so nice, the view for the sunset is breathtaking, highly recommended place

The host were supper accommodating and always available. The breakfast they provided were amazing. There isn’t a better place to watch the sun set. The sun beams literally hit the porch.

Chris was such an amazing host ! Very understanding, attentive, and very eager to help us around the island. Will be recommending his place

highly recommend this place, the owner Chris is amazing, the location is magical (if you don't mind the walk up to the village) We stayed in the detached 3bdrm villa that was plenty big for our family of 2 adults 2 children

Great view!! Great place to stay! Located on the bottom of oia cliff next to sea and next to great restaurants Has a great top terrace to watch the best sunsets!!!

The property owners were wonderful and helped us plan a lot into our short stay. They made us feel like family and have us an insiders guide to the best of the island. They were immediately available when needed and extremely accommodating and helpful. The apartment was super cute and in a terrific little fishing village- it made us feel as if we were on a movie set. Would definitely recommend

The owner Chris and his wife are AMAZING hosts. They make sure all of your needs are met and give you the best tips for places to go on the island and coordinate catamaran rides & attractions for you. The basket of breakfast is so tasty and so nice to get every morning. Even the housekeepers are great. There is no place on the island with a more BEAUTIFUL view from your deck than the Secret Gems Suites. I highly recommend this place and will be back again!!

Loved this beautiful gem!! This was our favorite stop! This property overlooks the beautiful bay and walking distance to the cliff jumping, restaurants as well as Oia town above! Breakfast is delivered daily in a basket outside your window! The owners are the sweetest and will help you with anything you need!! Loved it!!

This place is absolutely wonderful, very relaxing, with excellent location.
