The staff at Istoria are incredible! so friendly and accomodating, we couldn't thank them enough. Amazing room and pool!

Had a constant noise transmitted from above to our room (#7), probably from pump of hot tub above. Ran out of water one morning without warning. Warning would have been helpful. Could not read the labels on the bottles (shampoo, conditioner, body wash) in the shower. Figured it out and kept them in same location during stay.

Excellent breakfast options and great staff. Pool was serene and relaxing.

Staff tried to give us a lower room than what we booked and we had a very frustrating time having to argue with them to get what we reserved.

Location, style/decor, and the black sand beachfront.

Salty water running from the shower and the taps. Looks like some other hotels figured out how to deal with this.

The property was clean, tidy, fancy, stylish, and comfy. Breakfasts were great - we were ordering new meals and drinks from the menu every time. Kudos to the chef! Personnel were really helpful and caring. Spa personnel were pros. Facilities around the hotel. e.g. the pool and the restaurant were also very convenient. Location was perfect and right on the beach. I also enjoyed the pool at the backyard of our room - the water was always warm and clean. Small presents from time to time were also very pleasant to receive!

Ticked every single box. Staff went above and beyond. Slept 12 hours on the most comfortable hotel bed of my life. The breakfast is al a carte & was included (I only wish we stayed longer so I could have tried all the dishes)

Private pool in the room is actually a jacuzzi which doesn’t cool so not ideal for the middle of summer! Room stylish, but very basic for the price.

Amazing staff incredibly helpful, friendly and attentive. Great restaurant for breakfast and dinner. Private beach across the street, one of the best on the island. Pool area beautiful and a lovely spa.

nice staff but a bit non professional, we were often disturbed in our room despite a clear sign on the door, employees were very loud around the pool, the diner experience was underwhelming to say the least ( not so tasty food, pricy and we didn’t get to order desert, the chef had already left…). the location is not that great and the surroundings are lacking and unfortunately you see them from your terrasse

thé design creating a really cocoon atmosphere, the pool is one of the most beautiful I ever saw the breakfast was very very good and so nice not to have a buffet very helpful staff with the reservations

Cocktails a bit too expensive compared to the rest of the island.

Front desk services was absolutely amazing. The rooms was stylish, yet comfortable. The pool and beach area was excellent. Isabella at the front desk made us feel so welcome and taken care off. She ensured that our stay in Santorini was just perfect and that we had such a great experience.

Everyone was extremely genuinely friendly, which seems to be the way in the Cyclades. Of course, the breakfast was amazing, and it was in an open-air space protected from the sun. Actually, much of the hotel was open-air, including the reception desk. It was also just across the small road from the beach, and the hotel owns a stretch of beach just for the guests. It is well located to catch the sunrise, which can be spectacular, and even just walking around the neighborhood is interesting as there are a number of small farms and the like. Some ways down the beach are some excellent restaurants. You don't need a car at all if you are just coming to relax. The masseuse at the hotel did an excellent job on me. She could really dig in and get the knots out of my muscles. After my session, I didn't have any aches or pains at night as I otherwise so often do.

The food and experience were great! This was the last leg of our trip and it was nice to wind down with a massage and relaxation/drinks by the pool! We loved all the staff, especially the bartenders!! The drink and food menu had plenty to pick from. The hotel made several accommodations for us, which was very helpful, including taxi rides to and from Oia. Would highly recommend this hotel!

The pool, spa, breakfast, employees, rooms… all were outstanding! The beach property is beautiful with delectable cushions and service for your every need, but with the lovely saltwater pool, I scarcely wanted to leave the pool to go to the beach side of the property! Our plunge pool was perfect for an evening dip after a long day, and the staff took excellent care of us from the time we stepped out of our car. Going above and beyond they were friendly and kind and very responsive. 15/10 !
