If you are visiting Santorini, Oia is must to see and this hotel is at the heart of Oia. Beautiful view and very clean suite inside. The staff are super friendly and caring. Eliza have been in contact with us before our arrival and she has been a great help to guide us.

Amazing stay
Apartments in quieter area of Oia with 10min walking distance to bus station and supermarket. Big and spacious room and bathroom, large patio with jacuzzi. Rooms has a desk so you can work remotely. Very relaxing stay altrought we were very active. We have no complaints, just ideal. Rooms and patio are very private and quiet. Good breakfast.

Absolutely amazing property in the heart of Oia, right next to Canaves Oia. The listing is just as beautiful as on the pictures, staying there will be a memory for a lifetime with this gorgeous view. Iveta (our host) exceeded all expectations - she helped with everything we needed; from restaurant recommendations & bookings (we always got the best tables:)), through massage appointments, to beach recommendations. Would definitely come back to this suite when in Oia.

very good location as it is in the beginning of the main Oia street on one side and right at the beginning of the famous Oia-Fira hiking trail on the other side, good privacy, amazing view from the balcony, good breakfast, it would be nice if the earlier times for breakfast were available as we usually wake up very early (the earliest time at this hotel was 8:30am), hostess Iveta was super friendly (so very friendly that at times it didn't quiet feel truly sincere), the shower didn't drain properly (for this type of property and for how much they charge I would expect it to be perfect), the hot tub is really tiny (it looks a lot bigger on the photos)

Greek hospitality at its finest! Host Ivetta made our stay an easy and special one with her charming personality, and willingness to problem solve with us. Complimentary pick-up from anywhere on the island is a bonus that influenced our decision to book with Ambition Suites. Like many hotels, it's a good trek down many steps to the hotel but the porters are always ready to help you with your bags up and down. With that, you also get a good deal of privacy unlike some other hotels. It's literally just you and your neighbors whom you won't see or hear much of once you are settled into your own space. Overall, staying in a "traditional cave room" is such an experience, it looks much better than the photos! We absolutely adored the circular King-sized bed and it was oh so comfortable. The glorious patio has a pair of comfortable loungers and an amazing hot tub (we went for a lukewarm temperature as it was blazing hot in Greece but you could always request for it to be hotter if that's your thing). It is also where the breakfast was served with incredible views of the Aegean sea. The only slight down side is the sunset view is not the greatest from the room or the hotel as the location of the place is not west enough to feel the full glory of the Santorini sunset. That said, you can easily skip and hop to some of the good viewing spots in 15-20 minutes. Otherwise the location is also perfect being at the "start" of the Oia walking path, and near the bus stop. :)

This was an excellent find! Ambition Suites has a gorgeous caldara view and located just before the start of the pedestrian-only street in Oia. Iveta runs this 4 suites accommodation with a very lean team like clockwork. I appreciate the attention to detail and helpfulness with recommendations and booking.

5 Star Experience! Our flight was delyed, so we had a late check in(9pm). Evetta the property manager(awesome!!!!), had a driver meet us at the airport to drive us in. Once at the property,she was there to greet us and check us in. Her lovely smile and great personality made our stay! She was totally attentive to our needs and helpful with anything we needed. The view of the Caldera from our room was breathtaking! The bed was super comfy, and the shower was hot and strong. Also enjoyed the hot tub right outside our door looking at the Sea. Lovely place to stay!

Having a private deck and hot tub were fantastic! Really the best part of our stay was to have a private area to relax and enjoy the amazing views. The other perfect part of our stay was the staff at this property. They were very helpful with any of our questions and available to help with any bookings or reservations but also gave you lots of privacy. There is no restaurant at this property which I was initially concerned about but after staying here I realize that it is not something we would have even used as there are tons of places to eat within a few minutes stroll. We loved our stay and will stay here again if we return to Santorini.

Fantastic holiday that we couldn't fault. Iveta was brilliant and helped us out whenever we needed it. The room was clean and large and had a free coffee and mini-bar plus daily maid service. The hot tub truly was hot (40 degrees) and overlooked the volcano plus was very private. A lot of hotels in Oia can be viewed from above but not this one. Would definitely book again if we came back.

One of the best views in Oia and very quiet. Perhaps the best place to watch the sunset and dine in your own private balcony. Our host Iveta was amazing. She made us feel right at home from the minute we arrived. She offers us complimentary glasses of wine and even went out of her way to deliver a bottle of red wine to our suite. There was also complimentary sodas, beer and water in the mini fridge. She also arrange for our transfer back to the airport and provided great information about the area. We had a wonderful time at Ambition Suites and we would recommend this location to anyone looking for that picture perfect view, stay and the feeling of being pampered. The suite was beautiful and watching the sunset in the jacuzzi made it extra special. Waking up to breakfast on the balcony was also breathtaking. We felt like time stood still. We took some amazing images of iconic Santorini from our suite. Thank you Iveta for making our wedding anniversary very special. We look forward to visiting soon.

Beautiful hotel, beautiful view
Iveta the manager was very kind and welcoming. She brought is drinks to welcome us, explained the amenities of the hotel, and suggested amazing restaurants and excursions. The room was very comfortable. The shower was spacious. The fridge was stocked with complimentary pop and beer and water, which was an unexpected nice touch. Breakfast was very good, and the view during breakfast was breathtaking. We placed our breakfast order the day before, so breakfast was to our specifications. We used the outdoor jacuzzi tub every evening, so they turned the temperature up for us to be comfy (note: jets do not turn on after 10 pm, so as not to disturb other guests at night). The only small drawback, which affects almost all hotels is the long climb up and down the stairs of the mountain. The staff carried luggage, which was a great relief! Overall, this hotel was wonderful and made our experience in Santorini special!

When traveling so far away in such a lovely but expensive place we were vary worried that our hotel would fall short and we would feel slighted and unhappy. This hotel while expensive (Oia tends to be) was amazing, out of the main tourist area by only a few hundred feet it was an oasis that we would would recommend. The service was great and the recommendations were all terrific. Travel to Santorini was a little hectic by by air and sea but they did a great job to provide a terrific room and private porch and hot tub that left us very happy. Also, with the included pick up and drop off and complimentary mini bar the price included many items that would have been additional costs elsewhere. If planning on a trip to Oia, stay here and be sure to go swimming at the spot near the bottom of the large stair, a great spot work the effort and fun to jump of the rocks for a little thrill.

The best service we've ever had
This place is incredible. I think the service might be the best we've ever had. They start by giving you a cold beverage and giving you a personalized introduction to the room and Santorini. Ivetta handled everything for us, including every dinner reservation and every car/taxi. And anything we needed, we could just call her and she would take care of us. It's almost like having a butler. And she was so friendly every time I talked to her. Her service is what propelled the stay from great to fantastic. The cleaning staff was great too - they come in twice a day. Obviously the view and the room are amazing (you can see that from the pictures), but we were also very pleased with the location. It's right at the end of the main pedestrian road in Oia; not too far from anywhere you want to go, but far enough away from the massive crowds to be comfortable. Can't say enough great things about Ambition Suites.

The BEST hotel on the island! The staff there is amazingly friendly and so helpful to give you advice about the island. The views from the hotel room are beautiful and it makes it hard to leave to go and check out the rest of Santorini. It's a great location because it's right on the path that takes you into town to do shopping/check out the sunsets as well as super close to the start of the hiking path which we also did a day. This hotel and it's staff was the highlight of our time there and we are still talking about our fabulous experience at Ambition Suites. If we came back to Santorini again, this would be our top choice.

Honestly words and pictures cannot describe the beauty of this location and property. It is a must stay when coming to oia because it’s one of the only hotels off the caldera that has privacy! The staff is impeccable and really go the extra mile to make you feel at home. We will definitely be back to this stunning suite!

Perfect Stay in a Perfect Place
Gorgeous stay in Oia! From before the vacation Ambition Suites helping us to make numerous reservations, to picking us up at the airport, daily breakfast delivered to the room, checking on us throughout our stay, and all the way to dropping us back to the airport. It was almost like we were the only guests and we had the whole hotel staff serving us. AMAZING! And let's not forget the private hot tub on your balcony overlooking the caldera. It's hard not to love the island of Santorini and most certainly Oia, but Ambitious Suites was the proverbial icing on the cake and cherry on the top!

The hotel with the best reception ever
the hotel staff was super friendly and helpful to book the rental car and cruise for us. She is extremely patient with very clear logic and always stands in the customer's shoes to make the proposals. In addition, the sea view and room settings are absolutely wonderful. The location is at the end of the Oia walking street, so it's more quiet but still convenient. My wife and I really love this one!
