Wonderful location, beautiful views
We didn’t get the opportunity to meet Brigitta as she was away while we were there but she was always very responsive to questions and requests. We would like to say a very big thank you to Marianna who assisted us with checking in and out and also provided other information as necessary. The location was just amazing , beautiful views and so close to everything. As it was extremely hot, air conditioning would have made the stay much more comfortable.

Caldera view, but far from the madding crowd.
Brigitta, our hostess, came to meet us on the road and guide us along the narrow walkways to Briga Villas. There are the classic views of the caldera and the cruise ships far below. No need to go anywhere else for a sunset view. Our one bedroom studio is cool, cavernous, comfortable and well furnished, with everything we need. Public parking is located nearby and a hire car is sensible if one wants to see parts of the island not on the main bus routes, for example Akrotiri and Ancient Thira. Brigitta was happy to help us with arrangements for a hire car and our other requests. The centre of Thira is within walking distance, with shops, restaurants and museums, but far enough away for our accommodation to be quiet and peaceful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay: conversations with Brigitta and Leon were always entertaining.

Wonderful stay in Santorini
Briga villas was a wonderful choice. The view of the crater is exactly as shown - just beautiful. Firostefani is a great location, near the major town of Fira, but less crowded. Great choices for restaurants. The unit was very clean and nicely outfitted. Brigitta was an excellent host who made us feel very welcome. The airport transfer and check in arrangements were smooth. If we are lucky enough to return to Santorini we would definitely stay here and wholeheartedly recommend Briga villas.

First time in Greece!
Fantastic location! Very short walk to amazing restaurants!! View of balcony is to die for!! Host/owner Briga is wonderful. She is extremely thoughtful and does everything to support you having a splendid stay. She makes it feel like you’re in your home away from home!! Quiet location as well. Would highly recommend coming to Santorini and staying at one of Briga’s units!!

Lovely and Picturesque
This darling little studio apt had stunning views and an amazing location, close to restaurants, shops and activities like hiking. The owners were very helpful and supportive during my stay, ensured I got the low down on local amenities and eateries as well as arranged for transport back to the airport and someone to help me haul my heavy luggage. Very pleasant and enjoyable stay and the communication was always timely and helpful Feeling very full and very blessed.

The Best Santorini Vrbo
My cousin and I recently stayed at Brigitta's, where we stayed for around 6 nights. We were amazed by the wonderful views, the perfect room, and Brigitta herself. Prior to our vacation, we knew little about 'the best areas' to stay, but can safely say that we chose the perfect spot - 'Thira'. With less than a 2 minute walk to local restaurants, we found that Brigitta's place was a perfect location with a minimal amount of tourist. Brigitta was amazing as well, she was so welcoming and even allowed us to check in a bit early and leave a few hours later (because of our flight times) which helped us out greatly. I could not recommend this place more and hope to be back!!

We had a wonderful 5 day stay at Brigette’s villa. The location was perfect and Brigitte arranged for a pick up at the ferry and met us at the steps of her neighbourhood. She is a lovely host and we enjoyed the shared deck with her and Leon. I would definitely s recommend her spot in Santorini!

A Special Find in a Special Place
Staying at Brigga Suites was such a delightful experience for many reasons.; the host Brigga felt like an old friend who warmly welcomed us and gave us local suggestions for restaurants and beaches. The setting overlooking the Caldera is absolutely breathtaking and the location is very convenient and accessible to the Ancient Thera Museum, Fira, the hike to Oia and many other Santorini activities. If you want an authentic Santorini experience, with a sweet, cool host, then this is the place for you.

Unglaubliche Aussicht
Die Unterkunft ist perfekt gelegen. Fira bietet alles was das Herz begehrt und ist trotzdem nicht (wie Oia) von Touristen überlaufen. Ausserdem bietet die Unterkunft den schönsten Ausblick auf den atemberaubenden Sonnenuntergang. Ferien-Feeling pur! Auch die Anbieterin Birgitta ist eine unglaublich sympathische und zuverlässige Persönlichkeit. Wir waren sehr zufrienden dort! Tipp: Es lohnt sich ein Fahrzeug (Roller) zu mieten, um an die Strände zu gelangen.

Amazing place to call home during your visit!
The place was the perfect place to stay during our time on the island. The place is exactly as listed - cosy and in a great neighbourhood! Brigitta was so lovely and we enjoyed an evening watching the sunset with a bottle of wine with her on our first night. Bonus tip: the staff at the villas up the road with the pool are very nice, we bought a couple of drinks and they let us enjoy the pool a couple of afternoons on a hot day!

A lovely place to stay in an excellent location with great hosts!
My boyfriend and I spent 5 nights in the studio and loved every minute of it. The night we got in, I sent the wrong arrival time for our flight so Brigitta stayed up late to receive us and get us checked in. With any question we had, we either asked Brigitta or got a quick response from Markus. It was a pleasure to stay here and we’d love to return again!

Perfect Location!
The studio apartment we rented offers a stunning view from the sun-drenched patio it shares with the main unit. It is located steps off the very busy main pathway, which makes it a quiet yet convenient retreat. There are excellent restaurants nearby, and it is a 10-minute scenic stroll to Fira, which is the crowded action-packed capital. The unit is a traditional white cave dwelling without windows or A/C, but a tower fan and new louvered front door kept us comfortable in September. The queen mattress was comfortably supportive. We did not cook on the hot plate because we ate out, but the mini-fridge was convenient. (Tip: the afternoons were hot. If we had stayed longer we would have gone to the small hotel up the hill and ordered drinks from their poolside bar, and maybe they would have let us dip in their pool? The Greeks are very generous.) Watching the sunset over a glass of wine with the owner Brigitta, who was in residence, was a highlight of our stay, as she is charming. This was a dream vacation and this was the perfect place for the perfect price!

Best spot on Santorini!
Briga Villas is a true gem located just a short walk from the main town of Fira. We loved that it was removed from all the tourists but just close enough to great restaurants, a convenience store, etc. Brigitta is super sweet and her and Marianna made our stay wonderful; Brigitta even invited us to drink wine and watch the sunset with her and her friends one of the evenings. Thank you, Brigitta for making our honeymoon extra special. We will definitely be back!

Perfect 5 Night Stay
Our entire experience at BrigaVillas was spectacular. Briga and Marianna booked our transfers to and from the property for check in/out which made the process very convenient and stress free. The property itself was traditional, clean, quiet and the balcony has the most amazing view we have ever seen. We couldn’t be happier with our stay and have already recommended it to friends and family. Thank you very much Briga and Marianna!
