Frati Santorini beach — Restaurant in Municipality of Thira

literally the best beach bar on the whole stretch.

service 11/10. staff was so attentive, nice and friendly. someone came by and checked us on frequently, i felt like we never had to wait to ask for anything, and we literally stayed for 6 hours lol.

for example, from the moment we sat down and started fiddling with the umbrella, someone noticed us immediately and helped us. we ordered the oysters and it took a while for them to come out - turns out they wanted to get us fresh ones which explained the wait. they gave us free drinks to make up for it :) and the oysters were huge! and so tasty

food was 10/10. people can complain about the price but let’s be real you’re at a tourist location on a beautiful beach. the other bars down the stretch are priced similarly, and at this one at least the food was incredibly worth it.

music 10/10. they played fred again..! speaks for itself.

misc - they have shisha for 40 euros at the basic price. pretty standard tbh.

last but not least my girlfriend and i are a lesbian couple and we’ve been turned away at some pretentious places.. bars claiming they’re full when they’re not.. but we felt so welcomed here, like any other customer.

can’t recommend...

There are places you visit—and then there are places that leave a mark on your senses.

I Frati Santorini is not merely a restaurant. It is an experience—crafted with the precision of fine Italian culinary artistry, wrapped in the unmistakable elegance of the island’s volcanic soul.

From the very first step into its serene courtyard, there’s an almost monastic calm—refined, intentional, intimate. The ambiance whispers exclusivity, while remaining deeply soulful.

The menu? A masterclass in balance. Each dish pays homage to traditional Italian roots, while embracing the freshness and clarity of local ingredients. The handmade pasta is delicate, nuanced, and al dente perfection. The seafood—crystalline in flavor, kissed by the Aegean. And the wine list? Curated with reverence, showcasing both Italian depth and Santorinian brightness.

Service is gracious yet discreet. The kind of attentiveness that anticipates without intruding. Here, hospitality isn’t trained—it’s felt.

I Frati is the kind of place that reminds you: true luxury isn’t loud. It’s in the detail. The silence between courses. The quality of conversation it invites.

A sanctuary of taste in one of the world’s most evocative...

I want to single out Mikaela, who was incredibly helpful with everything and truly made our experience special.

The accommodations were perfect.You can take amazing photos out the room there are incredible places.The room was not only nice but also exceptionally clean, providing a comfortable and relaxing environment. The food was amazing, with a wide variety of delicious options to choose from.

And the beach? Simply fantastic. The pristine sands and crystal-clear waters made it the ideal spot to unwind and enjoy the natural beauty of the location.
