Exceptional stay, would highly recommend!
Pros:

All staff at the hotel were exceptional. Friendly, helpful, kind & always happy to help.
We felt so welcome and comfortable during our stay.
The location and services were brilliant.
If you’re looking for a perfect location & top service, then you can’t go wrong with Kivotos.
Of course the property & location are beautiful, but it’s the people who work within the hotel who really make it stand out.

Thank you to all who made our stay so perfect.

Great experience!
Pros:

All the staff working there were super helpful. They paid attention to the smallest details and gave us good recommendations and tips.
The sunset view was amazing! The room was big and had great amenities. A plus thing to be noted is that the toilet had a water spray!

Cons:

The windows were small and not enough light can enter through the windows but I guess that is the concept of the hotel- cave like experience.
The common swimming pool is quite small.

Pros:

This hotel is truly enchanting. Its beautifully conceived design offers guests an exceptional sense of space and privacy. Perched at the highest point of Imerovigli, it provides breathtaking views of the world-famous sunset, while the gentle sea breeze enhances the feeling of peace and well-being.
The staff are attentive, professional and genuinely friendly, making every interaction feel warm and effortless. This commitment to excellence is also reflected in the dining experience, where every dish is thoughtfully prepared with great care and attention to detail.
We returned home with wonderful memories of the time we spent there.

A truly unforgettable stay with stunning views, exceptional service, and a unique charm that made it feel extra special.
Pros:

We had an absolutely incredible stay at Kivotos Santorini. The property is unlike anywhere we've stayed before—quirky, unique, and full of character.

What really made the experience exceptional was the staff. They were so warm, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our stay perfect. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and the personal touch they brought to everything made us feel incredibly welcome.

The location was ideal. It's in a quieter town between Fira and Oia, so you get to escape the crowds while still having a fantastic choice of restaurants, cafés, and amenities within easy walking distance. It really is the best of both worlds.

And the view... simply breathtaking. Waking up to those stunning panoramic views every morning was unforgettable and one of the highlights of our trip.

We couldn't recommend Kivotos Santorini more highly and would return in a heartbeat.

Cons:

Nothing to fault.

Vienas iš nuostabiausių viesbučių kuriame lankėmės
Pros:

Nuostabi viešnagė, ypač vaizdas iš liukso kambario. Skanus net labai maistas, pusryčių pateikimas į kambarį. Ačiū personalui už rūpestį bet kokiais klausimas.
Labai rekomenduoju haiką iki miestelio Oia. Labai geras 7 km takas nuo viešbučio.
