The hotel was quiet and situated away from the busy tourist locations of Fira, imerovigli and Oia. All of these were easily accessible via taxi though. The only downside to this was the surrounding area was very limited, so the nearest shop was 20-25 min walk away. The hotel and rooms were very traditional and looked great. The hotel was clean and the staff were extremely helpful and attentive to anything we needed. The food at the restaurant was fantastic, serving authentic Greek dishes. Overall our stay was excellent and was well worth the price, especially when compared to the more expensive options in the busier locations on the island.

I had the best travel experience in Europe by staying at Artemios and Yvonne’s Hotel. Their place is very quiet and beautiful with a private blue-done Church. They started sharing all-need-to-know information even before my trip to Santorini. Their information is so practical and saved me much time to explore the area. Ask Artemios for his secret spot to watch sunset. You would love lit ;). It’s very sweet for them to invite me join lunch with their friends when they know I am a solo traveler. I felt so homey and safe in Santorini. They have wonderful friends, developing from their guests to frequent visitors. I wonder who will not love them, their place and their hospitality. Will definitely stay again when I am back to Santorini. Thank you, Artemios and Yvonne.

The location was so peaceful and quite. Hosts were genuinely helpful and considerate. Felt like family. Our flight out of Santorini was @ 11:45 pm. We were not only allowed to store our luggage but could also go back and freshen up before our flight. Everyone and everything about the place is perfect. I would happily go back there every year.

It is a beautiful hotel! It has traditional vaulted rooms and a 600-year old Blue dome roof private church. Love the serenity and special ambience there as it is tucked away uphill from the busy touristic areas. I could really relax there! It is also not far from the village - e.g. it is only 5 minutes drive to Fira. The food is good. The staff are wonderful. Special thanks to Jetta (I hope I spelled your name right:)!), the lady who took care of us during our stay. Learnt that both my sis and I don't drive, the owner of the hotel gave us lifts to the village multiple times and the airport too. He also gave us suggestions about nice places to visit. Very kind of him. Last but not the least, there are 3 lovely dogs and 8 cats in the compound. I enjoyed having them around. It felt like home:)! I would definitely recommend the hotel to others visiting Santorini. Hiring a car will be the best option to go to explore the beautiful island.

Beautiful Traditional Home Hotel
We arrived here on Greek Easter Sunday. This hotel is family owned and they were celebrating Easter. they were happy to welcome us in the midst of their celebration and in fact even invited us to join them. We freshened up and decided to join them. They served us the freshest of salads, lamb, fries, wine and fruits....all complimentary. Mr Artemios is a great help in suggesting 'things to do' in Santorini with interesting tips that you may not find anywhere. We wanted to live in a traditional house in Greece and this hotel more than met our expectations.

Our first stay in Santorini
We stopped in a junior suite at the Aghios Artemios traditional houses on our first visit to Santorini and were literally blown away by how beautiful this place is . Artemios and his family/staff made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble . They sorted us out with scooter hire which was very reasonable. It is very beneficial to hire transport at this resort as it is very quiet and remote( this is what makes it so fantastic ). The pool was the cleanest we have ever experienced at any resort with a view to die for . The cave suite we stopped in was one of the nicest places we've ever stopped in in Greece . The food offered was fantastic and very good value for money and if you requested something a bit different they were only too happy to oblige. The whole place had an air of calm about it which made it a lovely place to relax and read . It is well worth getting up just before 6 to see the sunrise as it is stunning to say the least . From what we saw of the other hotels/resorts I would highly recommend this place and will definitely be revisiting in the not too distant future .

Absolutely gorgeous to look at but secluded.
Beautiful hotel with a very "Santorini" look. Beautiful white exteriors with blue domes, blue doors, and pink flowers. There is a tennis court, pool, breakfast, food and drink options. The owner is very hands-on and welcomed us in. He called for a 4 wheeler rental person to come to the hotel to drop off a 4 wheeler for us (about 65 euros after insurance). We later found out that the price was a little more pricey than in town but it was convenient to have it brought to us. PLEASE NOTE: there is no wifi in the rooms. If you are attached to the internet, this is not the place for you. Internet and cell service is very shotty there but if you a honeymooner or a family, I could not recommend this more.

Unique family-run guesthouses
This was a wonderfully charming experience. The clean, nicely furnished rooms are set in caves, dotted around a courtyard. Beautifully lit at night. There's a pool (cold), tennis court, table tennis, even a small gym. The chapel is 600 years old, and they've done weddings too. The owners are well-traveled, hugely accommodating and sociable. We were invited to their Easter lunch, which lasted much of the day, where we met their friends on the island and other guests. The lamb had been roasting nearby all morning. Stay here if you want an authentic Greek experience and to make new friends - Santorini was the highlight of our 2-week trip.

Wonderful Hideaway Away From the Crowds
My husband and I planned a 4 day getaway to Santorini—he hadn't been back in 30 years and I'd never been. Aghios Artemois was the perfect "home base" for us—a beautiful, historic structure renovated with love and well located away the overbearing summer crowds. The owner and staff are AMAZING, making you feel welcome and providing island insights and secrets to help you plan a wonderful, personalized stay. Although we choose to venture out to see the island, we could have just has happily spent our 4 days at the hotel enjoying the environment, pool and incredible local food.

Amazing! Favorite stay in Santorini
Everything about this place is amazing! Went here for our honeymoon and this was our favorite part of our trip. The views, the spacious rooms, robes, tennis courts, service...Artemis is super nice and helpful. Got great recommendations for walking trail from Fira to Imergovli. You'll need a car (it's safer than an ATV and can take those road curves) if you want to go to Fira, Oia or other places.

Picturesque 'Village'
Gorgeous place to stay! Absolutely picturesque, spotlessly clean, peaceful and very friendly. We arrived at the hotel knowing very little about the place and the area, and the one thing people need to know is that you really need a mode of transport if you want to get to local towns, restaurants, beaches etc as Aghios Artemios really is in the middle of nowhere! Definitely the prettiest accommodation I have stayed at, and perfect if you prefer a smaller, quieter place. Highly recommended!

Honeymoon stay was ok
We Stayed in the honeymoon suite and wish the outdoors and the suite would have been nicer- right in front of us there was an empty umbrella stand ( no umbrella) , one outdoor chair ( we're two!!) and facing the door were dead plants - not landscaped . This was disappointing for our honeymoon. The service however was impeccable - especially from Christos.

This was the most perfect place to stay on Santorini for peace and quiet. Out the way of the towns crowds with beautiful surroundings. Staff are extremely friendly, very kind and thoughtful. It was home from home. Artemios is a true gentleman, very wise and helped us way beyond our expectations, driving us into town daily and suggesting things for us to do and places to go. We will defiantly be returning!! It was just what perfect!

We had a very enjoyable stay. Staff were extremely helpful and attentive. Wi fi was accessible in communal areas and the swimming pool was idilic . The only disadvantage was the lack of Air conditioning in the standard room. We hired a quad bike for the duration of our stay as the hotel is situated away from the main town, which was a bonus for us. We would return again in the future but upgrade to a room with air con.

Welcoming, Beautiful, Warm People, Incredible!
My husband and I traveled here on our honeymoon. We fell in love with this place, the staff (shout out to Pericles and Anna in the kitchen and Giannis!), and of course Artemios himself. We were only there a week and yet I am homesick to return! Artemios picked us up from town because we were lost, and was so kind and welcoming from the first minute. He gave us fantastic recommendations and taught us about Greek culture and life throughout our visit. He is a sincere, generous, and incredible man. He treated us like we were family, and the hotel felt like home. Even if the staff hadn't been wonderful, which they were, the place really spoke for itself. The grounds are immaculate. The pictures online do not lie--it is as stunning at sunset as it looks. Also the amenities are unmatched by any place I saw in Greece: pool, gym, tennis and basketball courts, even a picturesque little church in the center. Artemios upgraded us (for free, and without pretense) to the honeymoon suite, which was literally a white washed cave in the cliff-side. It was private, quiet, huge, and so clean. We called it "the love cave." There are also sweet little kitties and two dogs who live on the grounds--they'll totally respect your space or play with you if you are nice to them. Ordinarily I am a rather cynical person, so you can imagine how great this place must be if it turns me into such a gushing fool.

Fantastic holiday. Truly Greek!
Our husband and I and three sons just came back from a wonderful weeks stay with Artemios. His hospitality is generous and the whole atmosphere is wonderful. It's quite and relaxing, but also not far from the main town- about 7 minutes by car. The pool is lovely and you really feel like your staying with a small Greek family. Nothing is too much trouble. There is a wonderful cook there who makes excellent food and the breakfast is great. We will be going back to this gem of a place very soon! Highly recommended. Melanie Marshall
