Santorini Sky is the most stunning place my husband and I’ve ever stayed! (We have been to many luxury hotels and resorts around the world). Stop your search, this place will exceed your expectation in all ways!
We were lucky to be upgraded to villa 8, wow that was mind blowing moment when we stepped inside the villa! You have the sweeping views from almost every angle of the suite! And the sunset, you will forever remember!

This hotel was absolutely one of the stunning places I have ever stayed. The staff were amazing, service was out of this world. The room was overwhelming beautiful and the views the best on the island. So glad we decided to stay in Imergivili, so much quieter and nicer than Fira or Oia. We were treated like royalty from the moment we turned up.. our flight was late, they had welcome drinks, food for us as the restaurants in the area were closed… If I could give them more stars I would.

Our stay at Oia Spirit Boutique Residences was an absolute dream!
First of all, the location is fantastic. It’s right next to the three famous blue domes so every time you step out from your room, they’re there! While hoards of tourists line up to take a photo with these domes, you’re able to admire them up close away from the crowds. Staff were wonderful humans - they took such good care of us.

The villa was clean. complimentary snacks and wine.
Good views. The Manager was helpful.
The check in process was a problem. Eventhough the Manager had sent an email enquiring about our arrival and meeting at the post office, his email came via hotels.com. I replied to hotels.com missing the fine print that I needed to send the reply to the Property Manager instead.
This led to a major miscommunication wherein there was no one to pick us up. I tried calling the phone number from my booking...

We stayed at the Diamond Suite for 3 nights and had an amazing experience here.
Our suite was super clean and very spacious.
The bathroom was large and beautiful.
Breakfast was fantastic and was served on our private balcony with a stunning view.
I don't have words to describe how helpful, lovely and professional the staff were. They did everything they could to make our stay comfortable.
We highly recommend staying here and hope to be back soon.

The cleaning, breakfast staff and of course Ameli are all amazing. Ameli genuinely makes Cilon what it is.
Standouts;
-Rooms were clean
- Beautiful views of the caldera. The location is a 25min walk to the main town Thira.
-Breakfast was enjoyable. We were able to order online and select a specific time where the beautiful staff would come and set up a whole spread outside facing the Caldera.
I had some unfortunate dealings with the General Manager which I found very upsetting. I somehow ended...

What a lovely place. Nothing can surpass that view! It’s fabulous.
We received a warm welcome and help with our bags but it is easy to get down to the next level with a path to the side of the steps to wheel luggage down. Our room was small but we did only pay for a standard double. The bed was comfortable, WiFi good and the water hot. We also had tea and coffee making facilities. The other rooms seemed to be bigger with balconies. Our room had a terrace directly outside which was...

We had the best stay at dreams. The staff are a 10/10, room facilities 10/10, value for money 10/10, location 10/10. We were lucky enough o stay at one of the 6 boutique rooms, it was the best holiday ever and the staff at Dreams made our stay even better, always recommending places for us to go to.

Great central location on the island. Only a 10min ride into Thira. Beautiful property and house keeping is excellent. Breakfast is delicious. Car, ATV, Vespa rentals are all available and a great way to explore the island.

Highly recommend Meroviglia Boutique Hotel! The staff were incredibly helpful and very knowledgeable of the area, activities and food options, the pool was perfect to relax in after a day of exploring, Fico restaurant had the most divine food and wine, and great service, and the location of Imerovigli was absolutely perfect, tucked away from the maddening crowds of Oia and Fira. We loved our stay here and highly recommend to others. Thank you to all the staff at Meroviglia for making our stay so...

This is a fairly new hotel and therefore in great condition. It has a rural aspect and is therefore quiet, but a bit of a walk uphill to Fira. The pool is great, breakfast was adequate, the room comfortable and spotlessly clean. The staff are what makes this hotel and the receptionist, Tijana, is exceptional - nothing was too much trouble and she even offered her out of hours number if we needed anything.

What is a historic hotel like in Santorini?
Historic hotels give guests the chance to stay in a place that's been recognised with an official historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world can be castles, palaces or even pubs or old police stations — as long as it's of special interest. These types of hotels in Santorini often retain original qualities like traditional architecture and period features in their public spaces or guestrooms.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
The two are similar. The term “historic hotel” is more common in the U.S., while you'll often hear "heritage hotel" in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to place more significance on the architecture and actual building. A heritage hotel draws meaning mainly from the cultural value that the place has and how it inspired the community.
Do historic hotels in Santorini have modern facilities?
Yes. Every effort is made to preserve the historic aspects and traditions, but interiors include modern conveniences and safety features. Guests can expect the amenities you'd find in a hotel such as private rooms with updated bathroom facilities, heating and air conditioning, and free and fast Internet. In Santorini, booking a historic hotel doesn't mean you're choosing a place that's uncomfortable for guests or simply rundown.
