Annio Flats, Santorini

Kimkim team favorite · Standard
11 traditional cave-style rooms with fully furnished kitchenettes and caldera views

Overview

The cliffside hotel of Annio Flats offers 11 simple studios that combine the charm of a Greek island aesthetic with magical caldera views in Imerovigli. All of the apartments are fully furnished with kitchenettes and while two are proper cave rooms, they all follow the cave style of the island. Some rooms have outdoor jacuzzis but beyond that, the hotel doesn't have other facilities. One apartment can accommodate a group of four and overall, this time capsule of traditional Greek life offers a sweet and simple stay that won't break the bank.

Kimkim's Take

Pros
  • All of the studios capture a traditional Greek island aesthetic with whitewashed walls and vintage furniture, which feels like a nice time capsule of the past rather than something dated.
  • Fully equipped kitchenettes give the opportunity to make a meal or coffee and enjoy it while soaking in the fantastic caldera views.
  • Those looking for a cave hotel experience can book one of the two cave studios, although all of the options follow that design.
Cons
  • As a standard hotel, there aren't any facilities outside of the reception area, so this is a better option for those looking for an affordable and self-sufficient experience in Santorini.

Authenticity

If you're looking for a traditional Greek island experience, the Annio Flats has exactly that. Its whitewashed curved walls frame vintage furniture that evokes an older era in Greece, one where you can imagine a group of white-haired folks sitting around drinking coffee, smoking cigarettes, and looking out over the caldera. In other words, it's decorated with a Greek grandmother's aesthetic but in a chic and charming way. The Annio Flats is a time capsule of an era and way of life that is getting lost in Santorini, which makes it unique among cave hotels.

Location

Situated on a cliffside of Imerovigli, the Annio Flats has access to paths that can bring you to Skaros Rock in just 10 minutes. Otherwise, hop in the car and drive to the black beach of Perissa in 25 minutes or the Red Beach in 30 minutes. Oia and its famous sunsets is just over 20 minutes away by car, while Thera and its myriad of restaurants, bars, and shops is 10 minutes away.

Rooms and Bathrooms

All 11 studios and apartments come with fully equipped kitchenettes, as well as a traditional style of whitewashed walls and antique wooden furniture juxtaposed with pops of color that helps bring this historic space into the modern era. Some rooms include outdoor jacuzzis and while most of them are doubles that can easily sleep two people, there is one apartment that accommodates four.
