Our stay at Abelonas was excellent! They staff were so nice and the breakfast was excellent. Our room was spacious and clean. The view from our caldera view was amazing. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you to Pavlos and the two lovely ladies who took care of us.

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.

Beautiful and quiet, luxurious having made to order breakfast brought to the room. A little hard to reach the front desk prior to check in and with limited hours/staffing. Imerovigli is lovely, but less of a hub for public transport so something to consider for those travelling without renting private transportation.

The staff was quite kind and accommodating and the location was nice with good value for cost. Unfortunately the bathroom floor drain had an issue that caused puddles to form overnight/throughout the day from back flow. The balcony breakfast was quaint and relaxing though not overly appetizing.

Pretty basic hotel

We had booked a studio with sea view, not realising that it wasn't the same side as the caldera view. Unfortunately the room looked nothing like the pictures and was quite dated and dark, so not inviting at all. We raised this with the owner and weren't able to change rooms, so left a bit disappointed. Breakfast was nothing special in our view and got boring very quickly. Overall an okay stay and reasonable price considering Santorini prices, but wouldn't stay again

Good location

Good location . Very helpful manager . Property seemed a little tired and not as luxurious as made out to be ,assume that the better rooms are those with the Caldera view .Great views of the sunrise but the balcony had seen better days ,needed some TLC . Breakfast was OK ,again we had expected something a little better such as freshly squeezed juice however bringing it to each room was a nice touch . Santorini is very expensive however we felt that this property didn't offer the same value for money as others we have stayed in .
