About the location
Balanced at the highest point on the caldera, Imerovigli could be the best vantage point on Santorini – and that’s saying something. The island is world-famous for its views, and Imerovigli has earned the nickname ‘the balcony of the Aegean’ for its stunning vistas. Sugar-cube houses and whitewashed churches fill the hillside, finished with their signature blue domes. Sightseers, enjoy – you’ve got plenty to soak up here, with a cluster of local tavernas and pavement cafes where you can stop for a rest and a cold drink. If you fancy a breather on the beach, you can be on the island’s black-sand stretches in around 20 minutes.

My husband and I were looking for a place to spend a relaxed peaceful vacation and celebrate our wedding anniversary. We couldn???t have chosen better. From the moment we stepped in the hotel till we stepped out, it was simply amazing. The staff and service were outstanding, the cleanliness of the rooms of the highest standards. And the views... oh the views... breathtaking... I simply did not want to go back home... but reality calls... highly highly recommended. Hoping to go back again some day, maybe with the kids this time.

My husband and I stayed at the San Antonio in July for 4 nights and had a wonderful stay. We were greeted by Toula who showed us to our room straight away even though we arrived quite early and before the due check in time. Our senior suite was spacious and incredibly clean with a gorgeous little private terrace leading onto a big communal terrace with sunbeds. The best part was that amazing view! Stunning and we spent most of our time lying out on the terrace over the next few days. Some other reviewers mentioned lack of sunbeds around the pool but we didn't have a problem with that bcause of the sunbeds outside our room - a 30 sec walk to the pool. The hotel is small but so lovely with really helpful and friendly staff- special thanks to Martha on the concierge desk who recommended some fantastic restaurants and made all the bookings and Nicholas in the restaurant. Breakfast was delicious and a mix of local delicacies ( the home made pastries are fantastic!) and the usual eggs, bacon etc, with fruit and salads too. Oh and the view! We don't normally like to eat in hotel restaurants but you should try dinner in the hotel - amazing food and the chef is very talented. We had a lovely evening and ended up chatting to a few of the other guests. The hotel is a bit remote and you don't have any shops or restaurants on your doorstep but we liked the peace and quiet and the hotel organised cabs for us to get in and back from Oia and Imerovigli v easily. It wasn't expensive and much more relaxing than braving driving on those roads! The drivers were all very nice and chatty too. The infinity pool is just beautiful- cold in the morning though as it is not heated. We were completely chilled after just one day and are planning to return next year with our ( teenage) son. It's not a place for young children. We can't wait to return.

My daughter and I have just returned from the most amazing week staying at this beautiful hotel. Even before our arrival the staff couldn???t have been more helpful.... many thanks to Chrissi for sorting so much for us before our arrival. We were lucky enough to be upgraded to a lovely room complete with large patio, hot tub and, of course, the stunning view. All the staff were incredibly kind and helpful. The food was always delicious, breakfasts, lunches and dinners - along with excellent cocktails! We couldn???t have wished for a more peaceful, tranquil place to stay. Thank you to everyone :-))

My husband and I stayed in Santorini for 6 days, as part of our 20th anniversary celebration. We chose to stay at the San Antonio, which proved to be a great decision. The hotel was located in Imerovogli on the road toward Oia. We had a beautiful view of the caldera and chose to stay in a private villa with a private sundeck and hot tub. Each morning we had breakfast at the hotel restaurant. They worked hard to provide us with local traditional greek fare, as well as continental fair such as omelets, toasts, eggs & bacon, etc. The greek treats were delicious. We chose to eat at the restaurant one night for a tasting menu. The food was not only delicious, but beautifully presented - so much so, that my husband sent photos of each course to my brother-in-law who is a chef. The retstaurant's chef and his staff took great care with food that rivaled high end restaurants on the island. The concierge worked hard, before our trip, to help us arrange many activities on the island, including all our restaurant reservations, as well as a day long private boat tour of Santorini. Each day they would bring treats to the room -- cookies, greek treats, a bottle of wine, only to name a few. The night before our final day, I asked for an early breakfast, as we had to leave by 7am for the airport. at 6:30 a man from the restaurant showed up with enough food for breakfast lunch and dinner -- greek pastries, fruits, meats and cheeses , as well as a pot of coffee and a pot of tea. Needless to say, we were not able to eat it all. Overall, this was a great choice of hotels -- for the view, the service and the quality of the staff and the food.
