    Pros +

    • It's hard to capture in words the experience we had staying at this bespoke and beautiful hotel. The location is fantastic and we would, without hesitation, highly recommend staying at Kivotos Santorini Hotel in Imerovigli. The architecture and unique design of the hotel, pool, restaurant, and rooms are unbelievable. The pictures on their website are very accurate but still can't do it justice - you just have to experience this hotel!The hotel and rooms are kept spotless. The food and views at the restaurant were exceptional, and the staff who served breakfast, room service, and dinner were true professionals. We also indulged in massages with the therapist, Laoura Gini... she is highly experienced and excellent! Try the sound therapy/Chakra balance- very, very cool :)!The views from every room are just out of this world. Again, pictures just can't do it justice... Every morning, I could not wait to wake up and greet the day from our room's terrace with my coffee... overlooking some of the most panoramic, breathtaking views we have ever seen.All that being said, it was the people who truly make this hotel world class and an experience that we were so very lucky to have had. Every single person made this exceptional, one of a kind hotel something truly special and hard to capture with words ... i.e. Kivotos's General Manager greeting us when we arrived; the personal interactions with the concierges/Reservation team (thank you again ladies for all of your exceptional, personal assistance while we were in Santorini !); the housekeeping team that left our room spotless every day and the lady who did turn down service at night and left us special chocolates and treats... caring, sincere, exceptional, warm and welcoming...What can I say, don't hesitate to book your stay at this unique, elegant hotel.
    • Beautiful modern design hotel. Excellent view. Close to the parking lot. Cave swimming pool. Food is also delicious. The staff are very responsive and friendly.
    • We came from Crete to Santorini and were greeted with a perfect island and accommodation experience at this hotel. We were lucky, because we couldn't have found a better place to experience a perfect sunset with a great dinner. The hotel is beautiful, the staff is always approachable and nice. The breakfast is also excellent with a surreal view. The apartment is special, it also had a nice jacuzzi inside. Unfortunately, we didn't get to use the outdoor pool, but next time we will stay longer, that's for sure. Top!

    • Nothing. I can, without hesitation, highly recommend Kivotos Santorini Hotel.

    Beautiful views, helpful and friendly staff, great location.

    10NikolaosPosted on: 4-28-2025

    Everything was amazing. spotlessly clean. The staff was very helpful. Antonis upgraded our room and at the same price gave us the largest suite in the hotel and they allowed us to check out late on the day of departure. I highly recommend it.

    10IsaPosted on: 11-6-2024

    The hospitality from all the employees. Me and my partner got engaged during our trip. The hotel staff did everything to make sure we had an even more memorable trip. From a special table in the hotel restaurant Mavro with a beautiful dinner, to a boat trip to celebrate our engagement. Apostolia, Thanasis, Kostantinos & Aris thank you very much for everything! Regarding the room everything was amazing! From our private jacuzzi with sunset view, a state of the art sound system.

    We had to leave

    10AmitPosted on: 10-30-2024

    The service and staff are top notch. They helped us a lot as my wife was unwell and even provided the check in earlier. They were available 24/7 Kudos to the management and entire team.The room we booked was deluxe suite with sunset views and hot tub, i must say it was divine and huge in size. The amenities are perfect and the quality of everything is worth the money. Also the lighting are super cool!

    That its too dark for my taste ?

    10makisPosted on: 10-30-2024

    One of the best places I've ever stayed. Staff exceptionall, food delicious, views jaw-dropping. Highly recommended!

    10RozhPosted on: 10-23-2024

    The hotel is in a prefect location and has fantastic views and the fact that you don't need to walk down and up much to reach it,it makes it more comfortable.The staff are great and VERY helpful and kind.they will do everything to help you make the most out of your trip.I would like to specifically thank Vasiliki for being such an awesome host.In total it's simply perfect.

    10SebastianPosted on: 10-7-2024

    Since we arrived, we were so taken in by the unbelievable beauty of the hotel and how attentive, welcoming and professional the staff were. Apostolia by the front desk, Thanasis by the restaurant and of course Aris for having such a team are absolutely worth a mention. Breakfast was full of Mediterranean taste and super matching the ambience of the insane caldera view. As it comes to the room we were so surprised with the state of the art sound system, the size of the bed, the cleanliness of the room and the lovely jacuzzi! We definitely recommend the hotel for anyone travelling to Santorini. Through whatsapp they arranged anything we asked for and we couldn’t be happier. Transfer to the airport and back was arranged by the hotel, restaurant reservations, wine tours, boat tours and although we didn’t rent a car, we could through the hotel. So easy and possible. Overall, this is what hospitality should be like! Thank you!

    That we had to leave

    10AntonisPosted on: 9-24-2024

    Our stay at Kivotos was impeccable, though it's too bad we only stayed one night. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind, especially the guys at the front desk, who provided us with valuable information and activity recommendations that made our stay even more enjoyable. The food at Mavro restaurant was outstanding. The location is unique, offering breathtaking sunsets that are unmatched. We will definitely be back!

    10JoePosted on: 9-8-2024

    Everything - the location, the cave suite, the service and the lighting in the cave was exceptional

    10YiotaPosted on: 9-4-2024

    When reality exceeds all expectations. The only way I can describe my KIVOTOS SANTORINI experience. The location, the facilities, Mavro restaurant, my room No10 ❤️ the view! KIVOTOS Santorini offers a uniquely curated experience having taken care of all details that make the final difference in the end.

    Everything was perfect!

    9JudithPosted on: 8-20-2024

    Amazing views

    Pedestrians kept walking through restaurant entrance and wandering around terrace to take photos so security could be better

    10AdriennePosted on: 8-18-2024

    Our stay at Kivotos Santorini was excellent! The view was incredible from our hideaway suite and the whole hotel. We had a delicious breakfast every morning that you could choose from multiple options - all very good. The service was second to none. Everything was easy - the front desk arranged private transfers for us throughout our stay and we had communication with them via whatsapp for instant service. When we arrived, we received a very warm welcome and complimentary chilled bottle of wine in our room with other items, and everyone was so friendly throughout our stay. The room was also excellent and was tidied every morning while we were at breakfast. They had an evening service if you wished with a complimentary dessert, too. We really enjoyed our time there and didn't want to leave our suite hardly with the incredible view! I would recommend Kivotos to anyone!

    8DragosPosted on: 8-11-2024

    An original, worth-having experience, with a spectacular view and a cave-like lodging.One of the best options to capture the spirit of the caldera side of the island.

    The pool needs refurbishing.The sun umbrellas at the pool were not opened exactly when the sun burned most. They mentioned wind reasons, however the wind was really soft, so anyway a better solution must be found.

    9HoangPosted on: 6-16-2024

    The property is on the top of Imerovigli, with a great view from the Restaurant or even from the Suite.The design of the suite was special, we had a great view, yet high level of privacyEveryone was nice and helpful.It‘s harder to find a parking place in front of the property, but the staff would park the car for you

    9ElenaPosted on: 6-15-2024

    Great location amazing views

    No spa

    9JohnPosted on: 5-16-2024

    Incredible location. Staff very accommodating, friendly and hard working, despite weather challenges in April. There were gale force winds that made everything difficult, but staff always came through.

    Excellent location very modern

    Not well maintained, coffee not good, not so much privacy
