A lovely older style hotel with stunning views of the caldera. The location between Fira and Oia made for a quieter stay without all the crowds. Plenty of lovely restaurants and a couple of small supermarkets. Would definitely stay again.

We enjoyed a fantastic week at Abelonas. What a great location for exploring the island and for views of the sunset from the room, without the premium price tag. It was a huge bonus having the swimming pool and sun deck area, which is a rare find in Imerovigli.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The location is wonderful. Tons of views and hiking. The hotel was ok. Needs a little upgrade. Plenty of nice restaurants around it. The hotel was clean and kind of cute. If you are driving, parking is horrible. The hotel says it has parking before you book, but it’s just street parking shared by the locals, business and tourist. When I arrived, I asked where could I park, and I was told “that’s not my problem”. I understood it was a joke, and I didn’t make a big deal out of it, but I purposely booked the hotel bc it said I had parking. Taxi is crazy expensive to go from there anywhere on the island. If you try to use uber, it doesn’t let you choose the cheap taxi option (which shows a price of $17). Only the expensive one that starts around $50.

Perfect location, beautiful property & views!

This was my second time and my family’s third time staying at this property. It is the only one I will stay in when I visit Santorini. It is just far enough away from the crowds of Oia, and in my opinion, has a better view anyways of the Caldera. It is right at the beginning of the path to Oia, and it’s a very convenient location. The service is really what makes the difference though. They treat you like family, they are very welcoming, and extremely helpful. If you need anything at all, they will help. I love this place and I will definitely be back again!

This property is in a wonderful location in Imeroviglia - a quieter option than Fira or Oia. It is right by the coastal path so easy to walk to both towns from there. The views over the caldera are stunning. The room was lovely; we liked the fact that breakfast was served on our terrace every morning. We would absolutely return to this property and have already recommended it to friends.
