Séjour parfait
Pros:

Super hôtel, le personnel est extremement gentil, ils nous ont aidé à monter nos valises sur leurs épaules au haut de la colline et des nombreuses marches (hôtel non accessible en voiture). Nous avons eu de la difficulté à trouver l’hôtel mais nous avons adoré l’emplacement. Petit déjeuner succulent avec vue magnifique. Chambre propre et personnel très accueillant et accomodant.

Pros:

One of the best parts of our stay was the staff. Faye and her staff were absolutely amazing and always so helpful and courteous. All went out of their way to make sure we were having a good time, feeling safe, and enjoying our stay. They went out of their way to help my husband who has peripheral neuropathy and for this, we are more than grateful. I don't think we have ever had this much service. I will say however, I wish I had known how hilly and difficult the walking was, which was not the fault of the staff. The view was breathtaking.

Pros:

We loved our stay In Imerovigli. It is a quiet, gorgeous, quaint town right on the absolutely gorgeous high up oceanfront caldera views walking path to the other busier towns. We got upgraded to the sister hotel Avaton, which was gorgeous! Kostas, the hotel manager, was amazing as was the porter, breakfast staff, and housekeeping staff. Such nice, warm, helpful, welcoming folks in Greece! 5 star in EVERY way!!! The breakfast was huge and fantastic served each morning on our balcony with out of this world views of the ocean and Caldera. The restaurants within walking distance a block or two away are all wonderful including White, 4 Seasons, Dear Miss Ellie, & Fish. The staff were wonderful too! The BIG highlight of the trip was a catamaran dinner/sunset cruise! Such a different amazing view from below! 5 star trip in EVERY single way! Santorini is wonderful and there’s a ferry available to adventure to the other islands as well. We did a quick day trip to Athens to immerse ourselves in history and culture. It’s HUGE! Have a plan! We had a taxi pick us up at the airport and shuttle us around all day long! Well worth the expense. Have Fun!!! Thanks Kostas, and all your crew!! Such a memorable stay!!! ❤️

Fabulous views, but a bit hard to find
Pros:

Definitely stay here! BUT... call first.

The "hotel" is a collection of rooms in the warren of beautiful white buildings stuck to the cliff above the sea in the caldera, and some of the rooms are separated from the reception office (which you probably won't find anyway). The rooms and office are on the maze of footpaths that even Google can't decipher. If you have a car, you will need to park it on the road above the cliff and walk to the room. Call ahead, and someone will meet you.

Once you find it, the rooms are great, with breathtaking views. A feast of a breakfast was brought to our balcony each morning. There are postcard views in every direction, and restaurants and shopping are within walking distance.

We were in the "Maria" room which had a kitchenette and a 2-person sized, private balcony with the view you're going to Santorini to get.

A definite YES!

Great hotel with awesome views
Pros:

Great hote, nice size rooms and comfortable bed. Great views of the caldera. They also offer pick up service from the airport for 30 euro and the bellhop will meet you to assist you with your luggage to the hotel which is great. Santorini is very hilly and the assistance is great! I would highly recommend this hotel.

Pros:

Great location, friendly stuff and excellent customer service. The improvements I can suggest is to find a way to get rid of the strong smell in the bathroom sewer and fishy smell in the kitchen sewer; and perhaps a sturdy/quieter bed. :)

Pros:

It was great for the most part and the workers are so amazing. Breakfast was awesome as well. However it lacks certain factors that make it stand out. Stray cats and I saw a roach and a huge rat. But then again we were staying on a cliff

Pros:

Awesome views. Service was great. The suite we got was large enough for 5 of us, but the bathroom was a little tight and needed updating. Need to have good mobility to get to room, but they will help you with luggage. Would recommend this hotel.

Incredible stay with amazing staff!
Pros:

I can’t even begin to describe how pleased my husband and I were with our stay at Krokos Villas. The accommodations were amazing and the staff really went the extra mile to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. Our trip started with an upgrade to a nicer room, and finished with a significant upgrade to their 5 star sister hotel, Avaton Resort and Spa. In both places, the staff went out of their way to ensure we had everything we could ever want. My husband and I usually travel on a tight budget, so the 5 star service we received from start to finish made us feel like we were royalty on the trip of a lifetime. Both places had delicious breakfast served on a terrace with breathtaking views. The terrace was exceptional for watching the sunset as well! I would like to add a special thanks to George, Kostas, Emilius, and Georgina (I’m sorry if I have misspelled anyone’s name) for making bookings, arranging transportation, carrying luggage, giving all sorts of tips and advice, and generally making our trip incredible.

Pros:

We were put in a cave room the first night. It was possibly one of the worst nights of my life. I felt like I was in a dungeon/prison. You had to climb up steps to reach the bedroom, and the AC could not reach the bedroom upstairs. The room was disgusting and smelled of mold. There was barely any light in the room. The worst part was the bathroom, which was was a dark cement square, with no windows, and no shower. The "shower" consisted of a shower hose on the wall directly next to the toilet. There was a leak from the toilet, and water dripped out of it. The entire room smelled like sewage. It was not what I expected when I booked a the room. I would have never booked the hotel if I saw pictures of that room. I cried myself to sleep that night. Fortunately they changed us to a newer room for the rest of our stay, but my husband and I are still traumatized from our night in the cave. I should not have stayed a single night in that awful dungeon. I would not recommend the hotel to anyone. The only positives of the trip were the staff and the views.
