アルタナ トラディショナル ハウジズ アンド スイーツ(Altana Heritage Suites)

Our family of five traveled to Santorini this past summer and stayed at Altana Heritage Suites based almost entirely on TripAdvisor reviews. Without a doubt, it was worth every penny and perhaps the best accommodations we have experienced throughout the world! Greece is busy in June, but our cave home was a true oasis with an authentic touch. Although the walking path between Oia and Fira was just up the stairs, we could sit on our patio with our plunge pool and just soak in the surroundings. Breakfast delivered to our home each morning was a special touch. The staff were INCREDIBLE! The welcome and introduction to the property and island was very helpful, and they were able to offer us a slightly later check-out due to our boat schedule. We were traveling lightly, so we took advantage of the laundry service, which had a quick turnaround and was delivered, folded in a darling basket. Our home was spacious, well-appointed, and quiet... just perfect! We walked into Fira twice, which was easy, and we visited Oia briefly, but it was very crowded with cruise ship tourists. Without a doubt, Imerovigli is the perfect location for a Santorini visit and Altana is an exceptional choice!

We didn't stay in the hotel but stumbled across the bar on our first day in imerovigli and can honestly say that in all our travels across the world this has got to be our favourite!! Traditional Greek Tavern, so pretty, great service and a great view. Would come back to Santorini just to visit this little place! If I could give 10 stars I would!

This is the most beautiful hotel we have ever stayed at. The hospitality is exceptional and the rooms are amazing. The hotel is in the town of Imerovigli, which is much less hectic than Oia, but it is near the town of Fira for shopping and dining. Can’t recommend this hotel any more highly.

This hotel defined the holiday! Staying in converted wine caves quickly transports you away from your normal routine enabling you to embrace the tranquillity and culture of the island. The caves were furnished for comfort and ease, whilst the terrace with pool provides an extra sense of luxury whilst you observe boats passing by on the most dramatic backdrop of the volcanic island. The staff were phenomenal and not only ensured that we were comfortable (2 adults + 2 kids) but took the time to ensure we could get the most from the island. This stemmed from describing the local cuisine and wine at the hotel to resteraunt to also making recommendations for key places to visit across the island that highlight the essence of the people of Santorini (e.g. archaeology, beaches and the tomato canning factory!). October may be the off season but with such great weather, people and surroundings its definitely worth a trip at this time of year.

I can't say enough about this hotel. Staff was super friendly and knowledgeable, room was clean and comfortable, breakfast was excellent and the views, WOW!! The location in Imerovigli was great as it was a reasonable walk to Fira without the crowds, and there were several fabulous restaurants close by.

Fabulous location and hospitality! We loved our little room but we wish we had booked a hot tub option - was off our budget though. View from here was still amazing and would stay in Imerovigli again. Hiked to Oia and glad we stayed at Altana as way quieter. Pool area was also great and pretty private. Also a good place to watch the photoshoots happening on the walkways. Breakfast served in the balcony daily was a highlight!

I would rarely leave feedback but on this occasion it felt it necessary if it would help others to have a break as amazing as we have. We stayed in the honeymoon suite and unlike most hotels in Santorini especially Caldera side we had privacy, most other hotels had jacuzzis/pools that were completely exposed to public and offered no privacy at all so not great for self conscious to even sunbath worth out being in everyone’s photos/selfies. Perfect town for us, it’s the highest point of the island with best view, next to Skaros rock that has a great story and short walk to the capital Fira, we went to Oia for one day while we were there and it was absolutely overwhelmed with tourists from multiple cruise ships. The service was great and the staff could not do enough for us, organised excursions and buggies for us at no extra cost to us. Breakfast had a large selection and at a time that suited us that we ate on the balcony overseeing the Caldera. On the last day the manager sat with us and gave up a couple of hours giving us his knowledge of the island so we can plan our wedding without being ripped off by wedding planners. To finish off the holiday we were unfortunately caught up in the UK air traffic control issues, whilst stuck in the runway we rang Altana and told them the situation and although they did not have a room that evening he rang a neighbouring hotel and arranged a room in case we got stuck that didn’t need to be paid for unless we need les it at a heavily discounted rate to give us peace of mind in the chaos of getting home in case we were stranded. Cannot wait to go back next year. Thank you to everyone at Altana especially Christos, see you soon.

Best view, private pool and terrace, breakfast in room, Helpful staff. It is 25 min to go to the Fira centre . Nice walk with magnificent view. The hotell offer transfer and advices for vacation. Dzacuzzi with hot water in the room. Hotel have a pool on the roof

This hotel is so beautiful! Romantic, secluded, private and charming. The view was majestic from every window in our room. We had opportunities to take so many beautiful photos with no crowds in the background. Front desk staff gave us amazing recommendations for dinner and beaches. We enjoyed some of our favorite meals in Greece thanks to their suggestions! I can’t say enough good things about this hotel.
