We had a wonderful stay at Esperas Santorini. The property was well maintained and in a great location. The staff was welcoming and extremely helpful. This location is away from the crowds but still close to all of the scenic attractions and shops and restaurants. The sunset views were wonderful. Overall a great combination of elements for a fantastic stay.

Beautiful views, clean rooms and great location. Scores 10 on all points. Breakfast in the morning was divine on the terrace overlooking the Bay. We celebrated our elder daughter’s birthday and the hotel arranged for decorations and champagne. Highly recommend to stay here.

Staff was so helpful. Views from the room were breathtaking and the breakfast was delicious! Well worth splurging on a room at Esperas as you have your own private (not crowded) view of the famous Oia sunset!

The best place to view the Santorini sunset is from the comfort of your own hotel balcony. The convenient location just past the crazy crowds was fantastic. Hotel breakfast was also very good and a ton of food. It should be noted that the room under the pool is a bit noisy.

This place was great but a little bit of a walk to get anywhere (about 15 mins up hill and then down). I also wish they would’ve had a few more breakfast options, but their scrambled eggs were really good. Staff was great too! We would stay again.

While the walking around the property is for Billy Goats or very fit people, it was an excellent stay! From the porters that carried our begs effortlessly, to Maria who checked us in and gave excellent advice for dinners and tours, we enjoyed every minute!

The staff was amazing, the food and rooms were just what we hoped for. It was on the edge of "town" so it didn't feel busy at all. It had an amazing view of the sunset.
There are a lot of stairs. The staff helped carry luggage, etc.
