Fodor's Expert Review Aigialos Luxury Traditional Settlement

A former convent from the 18th century has been converted into the most comfortable and discreetly luxurious—as well as the most poetic and serenely quiet—place to stay in Fira. This is an aristocratic haven of heavenly pastels, marble floors, beautiful antique furniture, 19th-century engravings, and sublime terraces and balconies overlooking the caldera. There's maid service twice daily, impeccable 24-hour service, fresh flowers, and a gourmet Mediterranean restaurant that will serve you on your private terrace or in a deep, charmingly decorated cave house.
