We really enjoyed the food and warm hospitality. Everyone was very pleasant and welcoming. The staff was attentive to our needs and knowledgeable of the history of Santorini/Greece. Esperas had the best Greek salad hands down! The views were amazing!

Had a wonderful stay at Esperas in Oia. The views of the Santorini Caldera are amazing and we were very spoiled by the sunset views. Our room was very clean and perfect for what we needed and we looked forward to our breakfasts every morning with that incredible view. The front desk/concierge was very helpful and and bell hops made our lives easier bringing our luggage through the tough hike up and down. Fair warning though, there are a good amount of steps so not great for those who are immobile. Overall, incredible time at Esperas and would love to come back next time we're in Santorini.

Our stay here was lovely! We felt so spoiled!! We were met at the hotel by a very strong “Georgian” man who carried allll of our luggage down many walkways and dozens of stairs to the hotel reception and ultimately our room (dozens of stairs more) then greeted with cool beverages and treats as we checked in. All the staff were so polite and eager to assist in any way necessary to make out stay the best. The views from the restaurant, which is also where breakfast is served are breathtaking and something we never tired of. If sunset views are a priority to you, you will get no better viewing than here and you won’t have to fight the crowds for them either. The location was not as crowded which made for a more relaxing/ quiet feel. If you are looking to be in the middle of the masses and see all the stereotypical white cave like structures all around you, this might not be the place for you. It is the end of the “strip” in Oia near the castle ruins and so you see a good bit of the rugged cliff, not as much of all the white structures. For us it was perfect! So many people vacation to this beautiful island and it was nice to feel a little secluded from the chaos and yet close to great dining options. The facilities and service were top notch!! We would definitely go back. Highly recommend Esperas!

The property has beautiful views however there are some drawbacks. There are a LOT of steps to climb to go anywhere and there is no elevator. The breakfast is delicious but the things you order may show up or not on various days. The restaurant staff and reception desk are very polite, especially the breakfast servers . The pool tends to get dirty and they will not or do not have the staff to clean it for you other than early in the morning so you will be fishing bugs out yourself. (They did let us use the neighboring empty room’s pool upon request which was nice. We also wanted to do an excursion, however they were able to find a car to rent for us so probably a good idea to book your own. Toiletries are not replaced everyday so be prepared to buy your own or ask every day. Having said this, the views are fabulous!

Views were incredible. Right in the heart of everything and a private sunset viewing spot. Staff were excellent (except not very flexible with breakfast times and gave us a hard time about packing a breakfast five minutes early so that we could make an excursion). Staying in a “cave” for a couple of days was a great experience.

The view of the sunset from this hotel is excellent and it is located in a quiet area. As for our stay, for a 4-star property, with good online reviews - we were incredibly disappointed. The staff is "friendly and helpful" on the surface, but very pushy. I asked them to make a reservation at an external restaurant for 5pm, they insisted on 5:30pm - not because the restaurant was booked - but because they thought it was better... I requested corn flakes for breakfast (a listed option), they insisted on granola... Everything we asked for, we were met with resistance for no reason and it was so odd... (another couple we met had this exact same experience). Our room had NO hot water, no matter what time of day... (the other couple also experienced this and told the staff and they insisted they were wrong). Next, breakfast is included, but there was a 20 euro charge to deliver it to your room, which we were not informed of until the food was delivered (note that the first hotel we stayed at in Santorini also delivered breakfast to your room, free of charge). At Esparas, the kitchen was 10 steps away from our room and yet somehow, the food was completely cold. We decided to just eat it in the restaurant the next 2 days - the breakfast was also freezing cold the next 2 days (another 2 couples we met there had the same experience as us). The onsite "fine dining" restaurant is awful - the worst meal we ate on our entire almost 3 week honeymoon. Overall, worst hotel experience.

Dear Elisa,Thank you for sharing your experience at Esperas Santorini.We would like to remark that our staff is doing their best to accommodate all the requests of our guests. We suppose the restaurant you asked for, had availability only for 5.30 so this is the reason our colleague advised you that time. Regarding our breakfast, each guest is given a list upon arrival where they have to select on their own the items they would like to have the next morning so the staff is not selecting for the guests what they would like to have for breakfast. On the list, it is clearly mentioned the option of having breakfast at the restaurant (free of charge) or delivered to the room for a charge of 20 euros which you have selected. Also, we had no remarks from you or other guests regarding the cold food. Last but not least, our Ombra Restaurant is one of the best on the island however we are sad that it did not meet your expectations.

We love this property and it is close to all Oia major attractions. We can view sunset from our room without dealing with all the crowds. The staff are friendly. The only thing we were a little annoyed was the check in process. You have to select breakfast options when you checking in. we were a bit tired from travelling at that time.

This hotel spoiled us! My husband and I had the best experience at the Esperas Santorini. We booked the Honeymoon Suite with a plunge pool - BEST SUNSET VIEW IN OIA! The room was absolutely perfect and the hotel staff was so kind. Stella at reception was so sweet and accomodating, we looked forward to seeing her! Also the food was just spectacular. Some of the best we had in Oia. I can't say enough good things about this hotel. If you're celebrating a special occasion or just want the best caldera/sunset views, I highly recommend booking at Esperas!

Excellent location for a visit to see the famous Oia sunset. Generous breakfast and very good restaurant for dinner with very professional and polite staff. Our suite was spacious and had a lovely balcony from which we could watch the sunset. If there was anything I would suggest for improvement, it would be to improve the ventilation / scent in the rooms and to make the reception experience more personal & attentive / less commercial. But these should not detract from the overall positive stay we had at this hotel. Thank you for the lovely stay.
