We did some research to decide which area to stay. Bottom line... Oia, too many people roaming around at sunset, and far from Thira. Thira, too loud due to crowds and nightclubs. Imerviglia, 20 minute walk from Thira, quiet, nice sunset, great compromise. This is the place to stay unless you ate of the party crowd.
The hotel is quite unique. It is about a 5 minute walk from the main drop off square. The rooms are spread out on several levels and built into the rock face. Be prepared to do lots of stairs. Many are cave like. They are clean and well appointed , although our bathroom was small. We were on the lowest level with no foot traffic. We had two loungers with a serene view of imerviglia, thera, the sea and caldera.
The infinite pool was heaven. One could perched their arms on the edge and hang in the water forever. Many very comfortable loungers. The bar is always open. Large variety at delicious buffet breakfast.
Possibly the best views in Santorini.
The staff were amazing. Very special shout out to the concierge, Konstantin.
Very stylish hotel.
Parking available on site.
Strongly recommend renting a car if you want to explore the island.... sunbird in the square was great.
Visit skaros rock.... which you see from the hotel.
Stay here. We would like to return.
