Our stay at La Perla was pleasant, the staff working at the reception were responsive and nice. They had a gentleman help us with our luggage at check-in and check-out which was great. Breakfast is lovely and they have a bar you can order drinks at with a nice view. We stayed in a honeymoon villa, but unfortunately it was not very private. The pool was in front/below our villa and the umbrella blocked some of the caldera view and there were people frequenting the pool. At one point someone was smoking underneath of us and playing loud music on their phone as we were trying to enjoy our wine in our hot tub so that was a bit annoying. The hot tub is really nice but you do have to ask them to turn on the hot water. You can enjoy a beautiful sunrise from this hotel but not a sunset as it’s East facing and be prepared to walk to go into Oia; when booking I didn’t realize the location was on the out skirts. Lastly, the transport out of Oia is quiet expensive, but the driver that took us to our excursion was amazing, he told us stories and gave us recommendations on dinning (Melitini and Pita Gyros) and sightseeing. Side note - I would not recommend excursions far away, it takes away time and is pricey (cost us over a 100 Euros for a ride there and back. There are several you can book in Oia itself and stay in Fira it’s more centralized if you plan on booking far excursions. Also, if you want a hole in the wall type of place for a quick bite definitely check out Pito Gyros!
