The property was amazing. The staff was on target and the room was so comfortable. This is a great place to stay if you want to see the best sunset and be close to everything Oia.
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!
This property gave us the ultimate santorini experience. Loved the views from our room and the pool area.

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.
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.
The staff was absolutely lovely. This hotel is exceptional. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful. I tried their pizza for lunch and it was so fresh and cheesy
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!
We had a fantastic stay with the hotel. The sunset view was beautiful, the staff were helpful and the location was great, so we walked everywhere and enjoyed the view of Oia in the morning and evening.
This stay was the most incredible experience. The view alone is worth every penny. The staff is extremely friendly, attentive and helpful. The room was great, the location is convenient. If I had to pick one complaint, it’s that the shower has about 30 seconds of hot water before it turns colder. But who wants to be in the shower longer than that anyway when you could be in your private plunge pool overlooking the sea and sunset!
