We had a wonderful stay at this resort and would highly recommend it. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and always willing to help with anything we needed, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The location is absolutely beautiful, with a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere throughout the resort. Each villa has its own private pool and is thoughtfully spaced apart, creating a sense of privacy and tranquillity that made it easy to completely unwind. The restaurant served excellent food, with high-quality dishes and plenty of choice. The resort also provided a driver who was always available to help us travel wherever we wanted to go, which made exploring the area effortless. One of the highlights of our stay was the spa, which was truly blissful and the perfect place to relax and recharge. Overall, this resort exceeded our expectations in every way. Between the outstanding service, stunning setting, delicious food, and luxurious facilities, it was an unforgettable experience. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend it to others.

We enjoyed our stay and the staff was amazing. Everyone was so helpful and accommodating, and had great suggestions on things to do in the area. Our flight arrived very early and the resort provided transportation and a complementary breakfast while we were waiting for the room to be ready. From the moment we stepped onto the property the staff made us feel comfortable and welcome. We traveled as a family, and the two bedroom villas were nice and spacious – plenty of room for a family of five. This resort is definitely outside of town, so figuring out transportation is a must- which the staff will help with if needed.

The front office staff ( Harpreet & Michael) were very curtious, prompt and customer focused. The Restaurant staff (Sandesh & Sandeep) were very friendly and welcoming. Some suggestions for improvement at the property. Outside Window shutters rattled all night long and need to be better secured Ensure there is hot water in the shower at all times which was lacking. No complimentary shuttle to the port for pickup nor drop off . Door to the bathroom/shower did not lock in the master bedroom

This was our second visit to Desiterra, the site is excellent just as they were last year, staff are fantastic and the spa was bloody lovely! We had a couples massage and it was well worth it. Superb service from everyone and bloody lovely part of the island because it’s quiet and you can enjoy a beautiful sunrise! The man who runs the restaurant and bar Sandesh is bloody excellent. Breakfast has a great selection on the menu for everyone. Lunch and dinner options are also great, but we explored a lot more of the island this time round so ate out most days. Room was clean, tidy, and well kitted out. 100% recommend and we will probably go back again!

We had the most incredible stay at the Desiterra hotel. The hotel was beautifully presented and clean. As a family of 4 we hired the family villa which was lovely with our own pool and fairly spacious. The staff are absolutely wonderful at the property and made our stay so worthwhile. They took care of everything we could ask for. We used all the facilities: the spa was great and we had a wonderful massage, the gym which was a little small but has what you need, the pool which has lovely views, and the restaurant had exquisite food - highly recommend the lamb chops and beef tagliata! All in all we couldn’t recommend the hotel more. We would certainly go back.

Beef tagliata was exceptional

A beautiful hotel on Santorini. Quiet, clean with great accommodations. Stayed in a villa with a family of 5. Off the beaten path from Fira. On-site restaurant is great. Walking distance to fantastic beach and restaurant. Road to the hotel is an adventure, and prices are on the high end for Greece.
