Istoria, A Member of Design Hotels

Gorgeous rooms. Best hotel on the beach.

Everything was high class, comfortable, amazing staff, and overall a fabulous experience!

Had the best and most memorable stay here. The staff pay attention to detail and ensure you have everything you need. I have been impressed with the quality of the service. The rooms are fantastic. I like the model of fewer rooms but there’s no compromise on space. The pool and beach facilities are impeccable. Thank you for one of the best stays for me in Santorini!

Amazing stay, very kind and accommodating service, we will come back

The staff was amazing and so accommodating! Especially Despina and Rebecca. All of the receptionists were so patient and extremely helpful. Thank you for a wonderful stay in Santorini!

Istoria was magnificent. It was beautiful and classy. The room was quiet and so well decorated with gorgeous private pool. The hotel pool was also probably the best Ive ever seen, I never wanted to leave and actually preferred it to the ocean that was just outside the front doors. The staff were attentive and so friendly. If you're looking for a beach side stay in a more quiet area of Santorini, this is the choice for you. Its at least a 30min drive to more touristy areas like Oia where you can get your IG shots of stairs and sunsets. But the hotel will book you great tours of those areas as well. Finally, the spa was incredible and well priced. Overall, Id stay here again in a heartbeat.

We loved the hotel and the staff, especially Pavlos who helped us make many last minute bookings. The chat service was very convenient. Food was amazing, bed was very comfortable and toiletries were so good from Korres. If I could pick this hotel up and place it in a more remote location that would be amazing. From the pictures I imagined it would be very private and in a natural setting. But the hotel is in the middle of a town, surrounded by many beach resorts that don’t have the same vibe as Istoria.

Such a beautiful resort! The accommodations, food, spa services, amenities and staff were impeccable. The swimming pool design was like no other I've ever seen......just gorgeous! The hosts/manager Greg and Dimitra were very welcoming and helpful, as was all the staff!! I highly recommend this property if you're looking for a luxury vacation with 5 star service!!

Esattamente di fronte alla spiaggia, bellissimo. La piscina stupenda.

Great design and service! Highly recommend it

Very nice hotel, simple luxury, the storia suite has an amazing terrace and sea view but room was too expensive

I can't speak highly enough of my experience at the Istoria Hotel. I would recommend it to anyone I know. The staff went out of their way to not only meet our needs, but exceed them at every turn. The property itself is stunning and it's really the little extras that the staff does (i.e. a cold beverage waiting at your check in) that makes the say beyond wonderful. I'll certainly be back :)

We loved everything about this property. The facility is gorgeous. The location is perfect.
Mostly the staff is exceptional. They could not do anything more to give us the most perfect stay in Istoria.

Great location right in front of black sand beach. The hot tub in the spa was great and my pregnant wife had a delightful massage. The bartender Kostantinos was very nice by the pool area. We loved the view of the mountain in the morning. The staff was top notch! Only negative is the drink prices are high relative to the neighboring beach bars. Other than that we had a great stay for 2 nights.

It was amazing. My expectations were exceeded. Everyone was so welcoming and the hotel is beautiful. What a gorgeous location.

All new and very clean.
Staff were very welcoming and friendly!

Personnel prevenant, discret, attentionné
Hôtel et restauration au top

Die Freundlichkeit des Personals war hervorragend, wunderschöner Pool und Strand, ausgezeichnetes Frühstück, gerne wieder

Very nice and small hotel, with a such beautiful decoration . Staff is very good and the atmosphere is very cool !

Pros: Perfectly situated right off black beach. Staff very attentive and accomodating. Very comfortable environment in the southeast corner of Santorini. Rooms are very comfortable. Private jacuzzi is a nice bonus. Rural area, less populated than further north, Fira, Oui, etc.
Cons: No gym on site. Transfer to/fm airport cost extra. Spa services are good but not equivalent to cost. Hotel pool water is cold in September, should be heated. Private jacuzzi is heated, but residents cant adjust temperature to personal comfort levels.
