We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel and enjoyed every moment of our vacation. We stayed in a room with a private pool, and the view was simply breathtaking. The room itself was exceptionally clean, beautifully designed, and stylish, with a modern and elegant atmosphere. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the bathroom was modern, spacious, and very well equipped. The room service was excellent throughout our stay — always fast, attentive, and thorough. Our room was cleaned to a very high standard every time. The breakfast was another highlight. There was a fantastic variety of delicious options to suit every taste, and we especially appreciated being able to order à la carte in addition to the generous buffet selection. Everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. The staff truly made our stay even more special. Everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful, always going above and beyond whenever we needed assistance. They were happy to answer any questions we had and gave us great recommendations for local restaurants, activities, and sightseeing. We enjoyed our vacation immensely and thought the hotel was absolutely fabulous. We would wholeheartedly recommend it to all our friends and would be very happy to return ourselves. An unforgettable stay!

Such a friendly and helpful staff. This was the best travel experience and hotel stay we have ever had. If you want to have staff that can recommend great authentic palces to eat and the spots you can go without a lot of tourists, this is it. Also there is an amazing view from your room. Just beautiful no matter the time of day.

My husband and I chose this hotel for our honeymoon in Greece. We both left with our expectations met and exceeded! This hotel is in a more peaceful location compared to the business of Oia or Fira, but still close enough to drive to most locations on the island in 15-25 minutes. The hotel itself is very clean, modern, and tastefully decorated. We enjoyed using our heated private pool and eating the free breakfast every morning. Staff here are very friendly and accommodating. Our flight didn’t leave until 9 p.m. The staff allowed us to leave our baggage with them in a secure location and use the facilities even after our checkout time! Overall, it was a very relaxing and pleasant trip. If we are ever on the Island of Santorini, we will certainly book here again!

Where do I even begin? Staying at this hotel was an absolute dream come true and one of the highlights of our time in Santorini. I cannot speak highly enough of the entire team. Nathalie, Bruna and Maria at reception were exceptional from the moment we arrived. They were warm, kind, welcoming and attentive throughout our entire stay. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and they were always available whenever we needed anything. You genuinely feel their love for Santorini and their passion for sharing their beautiful home with their guests. The restaurant and grounds staff were equally wonderful. Everyone we encountered was accommodating, thoughtful and committed to making our stay special. The property itself is breathtaking. We were fortunate enough to receive upgrades for both of our rooms, and they were incredible. The facilities, attention to detail and setting exceeded our expectations. The location is perfect if you are looking for a quieter, more private side of Santorini, away from the crowds. And the reward is one of the most spectacular views on the island. Waking up to the Santorini landscape from your bed, enjoying the view from your tub, or relaxing in the infinity pool overlooking the island is something we will never forget. Thank you to the entire team for such a fantastic stay and making us feel so welcome. After travelling extensively, stays like this are the ones you remember. We left wishing we had more time, and there is no doubt we will be back

Elessa hotel in Santorini Greece is an amazing place for relaxing and exploring the island. It is located in the center and within 15 minutes car ride to see the island. The hotel staffs as well as the owners whom we met at the property were very friendly and helpful. Food at the restaurant and breakfast were excellent and healthy. The facility is maintained well and private pool in each of our rooms was well secluded and clean. Overall amazing experience and looking forward to coming back
