Wow - where do I start? From check in to check out, we had the absolute best time in Oia with Hotel Esperas. The views were breathtaking, the location was perfect to shop & eat in Oia, the staff were incredibly kind and the rooms were absolutely adorable with white washed walls and Santorini blue accents. 10/10 stay. We were so sad to leave.

The property is on the south-west cliff side of Oia which means you can see the sunset absolutely perfectly and with no obstructions. Other than that, the staff were extremely nice and helpful, and can also provide amazing recommendations for day/evening activities, such as boat cruises, wine tours, etc. Could not have asked for a better experience in Santorini.

Esperas delivers breathtaking, front-row sunset views completely free from the Oia crowds. The cave rooms are pristine, flawlessly clean, and full of Cycladic charm. What truly sets the property apart, though, is the exceptional hospitality, the staff goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome, and the morning team is incredibly warm and friendly as they serve a fantastic breakfast

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable stay at Esperas Hotel We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Esperas Hotel in Santorini. From the moment we arrived, everything felt special, and the location and views were simply breathtaking. A huge thank you to the restaurant team — the waitresses and manager were truly amazing. They were so warm, attentive, friendly and professional, and went above and beyond to make every meal such a lovely experience. Their genuine hospitality really made a difference. And of course, the food was exceptional. Every dish was beautifully prepared, full of flavour and clearly made with great care. A special thank you to the chef and the whole kitchen team — we enjoyed every meal! The reception team were also fantastic — welcoming, helpful and always happy to assist with anything we needed. Esperas is more than just a beautiful hotel; it is the wonderful people who work there who make the experience truly memorable. We felt so well looked after throughout our stay and would happily return. Thank you to the entire Esperas team for making our time in Santorini so special. ❤️🇬🇷

We took Esperas transfer service and it was worry free. Maria at the recption helped us to plan for our day trip in Santorini and was very accomodating with our requests.....Nothing can beat the experience....would love to stay here again in our next trip.

Our stay at Esperas was absolutely unforgettable! My husband and I came to Santorini to celebrate our anniversary, and Esperas made it even more beautiful and special than we could have imagined. The hotel is breathtaking, with incredible caldera views and the perfect romantic atmosphere. What truly made our experience exceptional, however, was the wonderful staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, attentive, welcoming, and genuinely kind. A very special thank you to Maria, who went above and beyond to arrange all of our accommodations and transfers, making everything so easy and stress-free. And a special shout-out to Faani, who always greeted us on the stairs with the biggest smile and such a warm, friendly, and positive attitude. Those little moments meant so much to us! The breakfast was also exquisite and absolutely delicious, and we looked forward to it every morning. Most importantly, we are incredibly grateful to Esperas for the very kind upgrade of our room. This thoughtful gesture made our anniversary stay even more memorable, and we will never forget it. Thank you, Esperas, from the bottom of our hearts, for your incredible hospitality and for making us feel so special. Oia and Esperas will always have a very special place in our hearts. We absolutely cannot wait to come back! ❤️

This place was absolutely stunning and one of the highlights of our trip. All the rooms are unique and thoughtfully designed. We traveled with friends, and one of their rooms was especially memorable, built into a cave-like style with beautiful décor. Our room had a balcony with breathtaking sunset views, making every evening unforgettable. The location is also a major advantage—you are truly in the middle of everything. We visited during low season, so it was quiet and easy to get around, but even then we were just steps from the famous windmills and blue-domed landmarks, making it a perfect base for exploring. The only area that could be improved was the breakfast. It was decent but fairly simple, with eggs, omelets, croissants, and toast. It would have been nice to have more variety such as pancakes, waffles, crêpes, or French toast. Overall, this is an unforgettable stay thanks to the views, unique rooms, and prime location.
