Above Blue Suites, Santorini

This hotel offered a picture postcard view from the private balcony. The room itself was spacious and comfortable. The bathroom was beautiful and spacious, if lacking in hooks for towels, robes, etc.

I'm a kimkim staff member, and I recently stayed here during a work trip. It's a charming boutique hotel in Imerovigli with stunning caldera views and a quiet, convenient location. The Cycladic-style rooms are bright and cozy, featuring private balconies and standout blue-tiled bathrooms, although some furnishings show signs of wear. The small pool area feels private, and service is warm and personal. Breakfast is served on the balcony, and while amenities are limited, the hotel offers a peaceful, authentic Santorini experience.

It’s important to note that the "hot tubs" are not heated past 80°F, so it’s best to adjust expectations for local standards.

This hotel is a DUMP. Do not be fooled by the website. It may have been nice serval years ago, but it is not only completely broken-down, but many of the items touted on their website are lies:

1. Their description said “Bathrooms… come equipped with bathrobes and slippers.” This is not true. No bathrobes or slippers are provided. In fact, we were only allowed one towel every two days, and only one pool towel for our entire stay.
2. Their description said, “an indulgent Champagne breakfast is included”. This is not true. Champaign was not provided, and the selection was very basic, including options like a 1-egg “omelet” with nothing in it or corn flakes with milk.
3. The website shows breakfast being served on outdoor tables with cushioned chairs and white tablecloths. Instead, the tables were rickety and badly peeling, and the chairs were both broken and without cushions.
4. Their website states that is “a pool bar that serves drinks throughout the day.” This is also not true. No bar. No drinks. No service.
5. The website advertises the Moonlit Suite as having an “outdoor private HOT tub”. While there is an outdoor “tub”, the water was ice cold, it was dirty and the jets did not work.
6. The website says there is a Porter. This is also not true.
7. The room material noted that we should not drink the water but stated that two bottles of water would be delivered daily. That was not true. When we asked about water, we were told we could buy some at a store across the street.
8. The room material noted that each room has a mini bar. Again, this is a lie.
9. The website shows a small but clean luxury resort. Instead, we arrived to find loose wiring, broken tables and chairs, missing or stained and torn cushions, haphazard painting, rusted fixtures, mostly dead plants, an abundance of BLACK MOLD in the bathrooms and overall lack of maintenance.
10. The pool was full of algae.
I could go on and on but you get the idea. DON'T STAY HERE and SHAME ON THEM!!!

Gorgeous hotel with caldera view, very friendly and helpful staff

Highest point on caldera. Did not have to go anywhere to experience gorgeous sunsets.
All could be seen from terrace.

Nice little gem that is in a rock style, facing the sea and at a high point. The balcony has a jacuzzi and best sunset view.

Room was convenient though AC didn’t seem powerful enough to cool the whole room.

Ample space and very convenient. Staff is friendly and courteous.

But if stairs to climb up and down to room but the bell boys were happy to lug the suitcases for us.

Spectacular view and a great staff. Beautiful clean suite. The balcony was very nice but a bit dated. Overall, and amazing location and a great choice. We would love to return

Absolutely spectacular views. Be prepared for lots of steps but worth it. Great location.

Alex was very helpful and Paul from front desk

This hotel and the location are breathtaking! The views from the hotel were beautiful! The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious with so many options. So many walking trails and things to do in the area.
