Lotza Studios
Oia Santorini

I couldn't imagine there could be such a charming little place to stay on over-touristic (yet beautiful) Santorini. Lotza Studios consists of 5 big beautifully decorated studios in the middle of THE most charming, traditional & peaceful village of Santorini, Finikia (1km from Oia, really within walking distance). From your terrace you see the local life pass by, old men walking around on their donkeys (and not for tourist purposes!), children playing in the small cobbled streets. We stayed in one of the two studios on the lower level, wich I think were more private than the ones around the pool. The studios are really cosy and at a bargain price (60€/2p for the end of august) considering the incredible high rates for a decent room on Santorini. There's even a (small)…

The breakfast was absolutely amazing!! Definitely worth being included for the price of the stay. And, the location was great, only a 15 min walk to the main area of Oia. It was very cozy and quiet and had an amazing pool and hot tub, plus a private hot tub in your own villa. Also, the service with reception was fantastic. Everyone there was so sweet and accommodating to our needs, including transfers, tours, directions, recommendations, etc. Absolutely would stay here again!

Very authentic and romantic place to stay. It is in a quiet place not surrounded by tourists. It is away from Oia only 15 minutes walking. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable in unique local style. Very clean. Cristina was very helpful and kind and gave us some amassing restaurants and beach recommendations. You will enjoy the place and fall in love wishing to come again. Thank you Cristina for your kindness.

The hosts were amazing and gave us tips for a very good restaurant at Oia called Karma. The location was also good - not far from Oia and very quiet. The rooms were cleaned daily and the towels were changed. In the bathroom the toiletries were everything you need - even hair conditioner. The breakfast was brought to us on a big tray every morning. The two bedroom apartment exceeded our expectations. I definitely recommend it.

Μείναμε 5 βραδιές στην Lotza.. Η lotza βρίσκεται στην Φοινικιά ενα παραδοσιακό χωριουδάκι.. είναι περίπου 10 λεπτα με τα πόδια να πας στο κέντρο της Οιας.. καθαριότητα άψογη.. Η κυρία Νατάσα ( η κοπελα της reception ) με ενα χαμόγελο συνεχώς πρόθυμη να μας λύσει κάθε μας απορία και να μας εξυπηρετήσει με το καλύτερο δυνατό.. ερχόμαστε καθε χρονο Ελλάδα και αν ξανα παμε σαντορινη σιγουρα θα ξανα μείνουμε εκεί..

Easy check-in, great communication (Chris is very responsive and always available), nice 15-20mins walk to Oia. We also enjoyed the hot tub. Bathroom facilities were very good. Staying in a cave apartment is a unique experience and it's fun for a short stay. I suggest hiring a car if you want to truly enjoy the island. Sunset views are much better & less crowded in Fira than in Oia, but Oia is more charming to walk around.

So the place is only 5 minutes by bike or car to the Oia center. It’s better this way because we still have the charm of Oia without all the tourists. The hotel is 3 minutes walk from the parking but it’s a very lovely walk through the beautiful houses, restaurants and the view ! Our receptionist guy is the sweetest guy, he take care of everything and even go to extra length to give you your favorite food. Our Appartrment have a jacuzzi in the cave house, and they clean the room everyday. The bed was so comfortable, that all the other bed in Greece is nothing compare to this hotel now.

Μείναμε, τρεις ενήλικες και ένα παιδί, στο Lotza τον Οκτώβριο του 2012! Τα διαμερίσματα Λότζα βρίσκονται στη Φοινικιά, ένα παλιό αυθεντικό χωριό κοντά στην Οία. Κάθε πρωί περπατούσαμε περίπου 10 λεπτά ως την Οία. Η Φοινικιά είναι ένα πολύ παλιό χωριό μ' ένα μικρό, πολύ καλό εστιατόριο. Το Λότζα είναι πανέμορφο. Μείναμε στα διαμερίσματα 1 και 2. Μετά από μια ζεστή μέρα κολυμπούσαμε στην πισίνα και ξαπλώναμε στις ξαπλώστρες κοντά στην πισίνα. Τα δωμάτια καθαρίζονταν καθημερινά και υπήρχαν καθαρές πετσέτες. Σίγουρα θα ξαναπάμε! Μας άρεσε πολύ το Λότζα. Οι ιδιοκτήτες είναι πολύ φιλικοί!

Was within easy walking distance to Oia and some lovely local restaurants. Unique stay in cave apartments. Pool was lovely & warm. Breakfast was delicious and served to us outside our room & by the pool. Staff were great especially Chris who was available always. Transport was organised to the port for us which was great. I don’t think we would have found it otherwise.

Everything great! Strongly recommendable!
