Elysian Retreat

Really clean and friendly staff, made us feel very welcomed and was super helpful with any questions we had.

We had an amazing stay and were extremely satisfied with everything. The accommodation was exactly as beautiful as it looked in the photos. Everything was very clean, the room was cleaned regularly, and the pool was also spotless. The location is peaceful and beautiful, with a wonderful view, and Oia is easy to reach. The entire staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the very beginning until the end of our stay. A special thank you to Eman, who was always very kind, helpful, and attentive. Whenever we needed anything or wanted to order something, she responded very quickly and always gave us great support. The breakfast and lunch were absolutely delicious, very fresh, and of really high quality. It is a perfect place to relax, enjoy the beautiful surroundings, and simply switch off. Overall, it is a very beautiful accommodation and definitely worth a visit. We can highly recommend staying here when visiting Santorini. Thank you very much to Eman and the whole team for the wonderful stay. We were extremely happy and satisfied with everything 🤍

PERFECTO. Des de el primer momento estás en un paraíso, el personal te ayuda en todo (con las maletas, con los traslados, tienen opción de coger coche/buggy/moto,etc. en el mismo alojamiento sin tener que moverte) las instalaciones son perfectas y muy relajantes, no hay nada de ruido y hay tan pocos huéspedes que ni los ves. Todo el hotel está cuidado al detalle. El desayuno es a la carta y está riquísimo y puedes pedir que te lo lleven a la habitación es genial.

We had an amazing stay at Elysian Retreat. The private pool is beautiful, the hotel is incredibly peaceful, and the rooms are spacious and stunning. On site they are absolutely lovely, always available and happy to help with anything. Everything was perfect from start to finish. A well-deserved 10/10!

Nothing - it was an amazing experience !!

Отель полностью соответствует фото, чистый, новый, маленький с маленькими количеством людей , за счёт чего очень уединенный. Уютный и тихий, с шикарными видами . Очень хорошое соотношение цены и качества

Лучше брать отель без завтрака и завтракать в другом месте, завтраки были «бедные» и не вкусные, не было даже овощей либо лосося, сосисок. Так же на завтраке был маленький выбор напитков. Лучше потратить лишние деньги и поехать в другое место. Либо же самостоятельно перекусить в номере .

The staff, rooms, facilities and view were all amazing. The staff, particularly Eman, were superb. We will definitely be back!

La tranquillité

Le petit déjeuner, il n’y a pas de choix pour manger et les restaurants proposés sont pas super. La piscine commune est très froide. Il y a trop de lézards

הכל היה נקי , כל מה שביקשנו קיבלנו, יחס אישי מטורף דיברנו איתנו בווצאפ לכל דבר הכי קטן וסגרו לנו אטרקציות יותר משתלמות דרכם בלי לשבור את הראש

הכל היה מושלם אין משהו רע להגיד

Un endroit super, agréable, bien au calme par rapport à l’agitation d’Oia tout en restant à proximité. L’hôtel est propre et très bien entretenu. Le personnel était au petit soin pour nous donner des bonnes adresses, conseils.

Un petit manque d’intimité ressenti. Notamment lors du passage de la personne s’occupant des piscines a des horaires où nous étions sur place.

Muy linda y con mucho espacio la habitación con piscina.

Very good and quiet location.Good with a car a little bit of uphill when walking,close and quiet beach within walking distance.However more ideal with a car with other destinations such as the town centre. Very nice and friendly staff with clean and spacious rooms and bathroom.

Our stay at Elysian Retreat was absolutely outstanding from beginning to end. The hotel is simply breathtaking, with beautiful architecture, exceptional attention to detail, and luxurious finishes throughout. Everything feels premium and has been designed to perfection. The rooms are stunning, incredibly spacious, and the private terrace is perfect for relaxing. The heated private pool is a real highlight—the water is always at the perfect temperature, making it enjoyable at any time of the day. The shared pool is equally magnificent and creates a wonderful atmosphere. The breakfast was absolutely delicious with a great variety of fresh, high-quality options. One feature we especially loved was the possibility of having breakfast delivered directly to our room, which made our mornings even more relaxing. The food truck at the hotel is also excellent, offering a wide selection of delicious meals at very reasonable prices. The location is ideal. Oia is less than a two-minute quad ride away, making it incredibly easy to explore one of Santorini’s most beautiful villages. There is also a supermarket less than 200 meters from the hotel, which is very convenient. Fira is also just a short drive away, making it easy to visit different parts of the island. Communication with the hotel is seamless thanks to WhatsApp. It is a huge advantage, as the team responds incredibly quickly to every request, making everything effortless throughout the stay. A very special thank you to Eman, who was unbelievably kind and helpful. She was always available, gave us fantastic recommendations and advice, and genuinely cared about making our stay as enjoyable as possible. Her professionalism and kindness made a real difference. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend Elysian Retreat without any hesitation. If you’re looking for a beautiful, peaceful, and luxurious place to stay in Santorini, this is the perfect choice. We would happily return again.

Obsługa na najwyższym poziomie. Śniadania na 6 gwiazdek. Piękne zachody słońca pomimo że nie na kalderę. Lokalizacja blisko Oia, na piechotę 15 min. pod górę.

Todo increible, súper limpio, no le falta nada, la atencion exquisita, súper atentos y agradables, repetiriamos sin duda.

Nada

Son emplacement, sa taille humaine, la qualité du service, le personnel, la restauration. Tout était parfait!

Rien

Ett helt fantastiskt paradis om man vill varva ner och ha lugn och ro. Personalen var så trevlig och gav jättebra service. Eman var väldigt vänlig och hjälpte oss med både rekommendationer & bokningar

Inget var dåligt

Beautiful hotel set in tranquil surroundings, modern, clean.

Personally I thought the location wasn’t great, have to walk up quite a steep hill to reach nearest shop and restaurants, a car is advisable

Ons verblijf bij Elysian Retreat was in één woord fantastisch. De rustige ligging is echt een enorme troef: midden tussen de akkers en wijngaarden, met op de achtergrond zicht op de zee. De ideale plek om volledig tot rust te komen en te genieten van de prachtige zonsondergangen van Santorini, weg van de drukte. Wij verbleven in Villa Grace, een smaakvol ingerichte villa met alle comfort. Het bed sliep heerlijk, alles was kraaknet onderhouden en het gigantische terras was absoluut een hoogtepunt: Je kan er gezellig ontspannen in je loungezetels rond de gashaard of genieten van de zonsondergang vanuit je verwarmde privézwembad — pure luxe. Elke ochtend werd een heerlijk à-la-carteontbijt op ons terras geserveerd, wat zorgde voor een extra ontspannen start van de dag. Ook het wellnessmoment was top: we hoefden onze villa niet eens te verlaten, want de massage werd gewoon in onze kamer gegeven. Een bijkomend pluspunt is de parkeermogelijkheid op het domein, wat op Santorini zeker handig is. Daarnaast verdient het personeel een speciale vermelding: receptie, kamermeisje en roomservice waren stuk voor stuk ontzettend vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Ook de restauranttip die we kregen om in de buurt te gaan eten was een schot in de roos. Via het verblijf boekten we bovendien een boottocht bij Caldera Yachting, en ook dat was een absolute aanrader. Kortom: een luxueuze, rustige en warme plek waar werkelijk aan alles gedacht wordt. Wij keren met heel mooie herinneringen terug naar huis.

Frigo maakte een licht zoemend geluid, een heel5 klein minpuntje voor wie geen vaste slaper is. Tip: Badjassen ter beschikking zou ook fijn zijn.

We had the most wonderful experience at Elysian Retreat . Eman has been extremely helpful, before our arrival , during our stay and Even after! She recommanded great addresses to us and Even took care of the bookings. We were in Santorini for our honeymoon and we could not have dreamt of anything better. The suite was incredible, we had never had such an experience : 500% clean, beddings really comfortable. The heated swimming pool was definetely a huge plus, especially in May. Breakfast was really good and they took my dietary restrictions very seriously . All in all, I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Free parking and calm are also huge bonuses after the agitation of the centre of the village. Thank you again so much Eman for making our stay so special.

Vriendelijke personeel wat een hele snelle reactie had via de app

De ligging was ietsjes verder van Oia af maar dat is een persoonlijke keuze

The villas are beautiful and staff are super attentive and friendly. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be coming back. Only thing to note would be the pools are quite cold so if you are going in May, it’s not ideal temperature for a dip.

Vraiment parfait ! Un grand merci ! La piscine dans la chambre chauffée, ultra agréable, l’équipe super ! Les conseils pour les visites … Tout !

super

The staff were amazing and very helpful I would highly recommend

All good

Tutto perfetto

De kamer en het personeel waren zeer vriendelijk, ook de locatie dichtbij oia. En heel rustig.

Niets.

- schöne Anlage - hilfsbereites und freundliches Personal - privater Pool

- Sauberkeit: Fremde Haare auf dem Boden und im Bett. Unter dem Bett lagen Krümel und Dreck. Selbst nach mehrmaligem Putzen blieben die Haare an der gleichen Stelle auf dem Boden liegen. Schlieren auf mehreren Oberflächen. - Leider wurden an fast allen Tagen stundenlang direkt neben unserer Terrasse Polster und Teppiche gereinigt. Das Prozedere war sehr laut, sodass man sich auf der eigenen Terrasse leider wenig entspannen konnte. Hierfür sollte definitiv ein anderer Ort als unmittelbar neben den Gästen gewählt werden! - sehr lange Wartezeit beim Frühstück

The service was great! And the hotel was very quiet and peaceful.

Nothing!

Klidné prostředí,vyhřívaný soukromý bazén, široká postel.

Málo úložného prostoru a věšáků, nevhodné osvíceni u nočních stolků, znečištěnená sedačka venku.

The receptionist was very nice and accommodating. Room and breakfast was excellent.

The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, the room was spacious and comfortable with a great view. The breakfast was tasty and freshly made, and there were various options.

Good hotel, nice rooms, excellent staff

the fridge is about two meters from the bed, and at night I woke up several times when it turned on

Nous avons passé 3 nuits dans cet établissement proche d’Oia (15 minutes à pied). Situé à l’abri de la foule, bénéficiant une vue exceptionnelle, cet hôtel porte très bien son nom ! La chambre 4 est magnifique, très grande et dispose d’une piscine privative de très bonne taille et d’une très grande terrasse. L’accueil est efficace et discret. Les petits déjeuners sont délicieux.

Rien !

Wat beviel niet haha. Dit is 1 van de mooiste hotels waar ik ooit ben geweest. De kamer, de super grote douche, elke dag nieuwe koffie cups en water, het grote bed met prachtige lakens. De buitenruimte met royaal ligbed, 2 stoelen en een tafel, een eigen zwembad....... Het uitzicht!

スタッフが親切で、ホテルだけでなく観光地の分からないことを全て教えてくれた！ いつでも連絡してきてねっとWhatsappの連絡先をもらった！ 部屋にプールが付いていたので、朝起きてすぐにプールに入ることができて特別な時間だった！

The accommodation was lovely and spacious. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Both private pool and main pool were lovely and clean. Sunset was stunning and so special to watch it in a private setting without crowds.

Be prepared that the walk to Oia is not far but is up a steep hill.

Our bedroom was excellent, amazing views, every room for what I understand has a private pool and then there’s a bigger public pool where you can stay if your checking in or out

Restaurant at the Elysian was expensive in comparison to other restaurants in the area… when I say in the area I mean at least 10 min walk to the nearest restaurant

We had a lovely room with a private pool. The hotel is close to Finikia village which is a very quiet and traditional place with a handful of really good tavernas. The service was good, Eman was friendly, helpful and made us feel very welcome. The other staff were great, especially the young woman who served breakfast and ran the hippy van by the pool.

The property is close to the road so you can hear cars and vehicles passing, however this didn’t bother us too much.

Nice clean room

The staff and service is very limited. No restaurant, no gym, no 24hours staff service - the hotel next door does have better services. We had an emergency to go to the hospital at night and there wasn’t really no one to help us. Terrible experience. As we had to run to the hospital right before checkout, we left sunglasses at the room and disappeared. They can be a bit rude and demanding regarding their service limitations (i.e. no lunch orders after 12:00 - no staff after sunset - no restaurant). They also provided wrong information regarding Caldera Yacht Cruises tours payment, so is better to ask directly to the tour providers.

The property is excellent excellent- great location, quiet and a true retreat!

The property had some lizards and I have phobia, so it made me constant paranoid. But at least they were not inside the property and once you’re inside the room it’s literally heaven!

The location was absolutely ideal — peaceful and quiet. The entire accommodation was spacious, beautifully designed, and perfectly clean.

Eman and the team were very kind and helpful with everything we needed. The rooms are very luxurious and highly maintained.

Accommodation is so beautiful, by far the best place we have stayed in, in Europe. Wish we stayed there longer. Owners had an arrival surprise for us which was a lovely touch to the stay. Owners are extremely helpful and only want the best for your stay. We got a quad bike for 24 hours and we went around the whole island. Was the most fun we had and worth every penny. Also saved you getting taxis around.

Walk to main town is a steep hill but you get used to it.

This property is beautifully designed, and the staff at reception, Eleni and Panos, are incredibly friendly and helpful.

The room was so comfortable, the design is perfect. The staff was super nice. We also chose to have breakfast and it was so delicious.

Location was great! Close to Oia restaurants & shopping and the ocean views we wanted. A little further out from Fira, but we were okay with that as we didn’t spend much time there. Staff was amazing. Eleni was welcoming, very responsive & attentive to all our needs. We felt well taken care of & welcomed. Order an Espresso Martini (or anything) from Alex…delicious! Chris was an amazing host for our wine tasting & made the experience a highlight of our stay.

Beautifully designed, a little off from the main tourist area which we wanted, great service from staff

Dark and small roads like most areas in Santorini so would not recommend to walk to and from the hotel at night.

Amazing hotel, cozy and clean rooms there is everything for a comfortable stay, welcoming and friendly staff. Will definitely be here again

We recently stayed at Elysian, a boutique hotel in Santorini, hosted by the amazing Eleni and Panos, and I can't express how extraordinary the experience was! From the moment I arrived, they made me feel at home with their warm hospitality and personal touches. The room was incredibly well thought out—every detail was carefully crafted, and it showed. From the design to the amenities, everything was perfect and made for a luxurious and comfortable stay. Eleni and Panos went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect, offering excellent recommendations and being readily available for any needs. Their kindness and attention to detail truly made this trip unforgettable.The chef Dēmḗtrios makes amazing croissants and knew to adjust the menu to my seafood allergies which made my stay so much better If you're looking for a unique and exceptional experience, this is it.

Very beautiful rooms. The staff were just amazing. Best experience we had while In Santorini. We tried to stay longer but they were fully booked. No surprise there, it’s a great spot and I would recommend.

The gas heater outside didn’t work and they said it would cost 60 euro to have a gas bottle replaced. That part confused me Other than that our stay was faultless.

From the moment you arrive you know you’re in a very high end establishment. The staff at Elysian Retreat go above and beyond to introduce to not only the retreat, but Santorini itself; making sure to help you organize your travel plans and assist with booking any outings. The retreat itself is gorgeous, with amazing views of the north east side of Santorini. Our room had an amazing picturesque private pool which was a real highlight of our trip. The daily breakfast is actually really good; unlike most hotel breakfasts I can actually recommend this one - we had the hearty breakfast and the vegan option. Thank you again team at the Elysian, you really made our visit to Santorini special!

Everything.Perfect in every way .Exceptional .

Could not think of one thing we did not like .

I cannot fault this accommodation! We absolutely loved our stay here and wished that we could stay longer. I believe it is the perfect location because you get to enjoy peaceful views, without having so many tourists around. It is about a 20 minute walk into the main town of Oia (about 5-10mins up a very steep hill, but manageable). You are much better off staying here and walking into Oia to enjoy the views and get good photos, rather than stay in Oia, as there are just too many people, and I don’t think it would be very peaceful. The room itself, was top quality and we lovedddd the design features! Stunning! We chose to enjoy breakfast in our room which was delicious and it was so special to enjoy it by our private pool. The bed was extremely comfortable, the shower was beautiful, and the room had all the amenities that we needed. Finally, the staff were just a delight. Thank you so much, we loved our stay here.

We booked the Hotel for only one night Initially as we were planning to try different hotels and experience the different vibes in Santorini Elysian Retreat was our first choice for the first night .. we went to another hotel the second night and then we decided that we will go back for our 3rd night and won’t try anything else! Our Villa was beyond beautiful, comfortable and clean Heated pool was the main reason for us going back! Location is really good! With a car you will be in Oia in 10 mins, 19 mins in Fira and 30 mins to Akrotiri Elena and Paños were beyond welcoming and happy to have us back! They gifted us a bottle of White Wine as a beautiful gesture for their appreciation for coming back We would definitely go back again and again! Lovely lovely place and hospitality!

Nothing

The Hotel is new, clean, our villa was very spacious and the best part that the pool is always heated! The hotel is located very close to the centre of Oia (less than 10 mins) so when we wanted the crowd we drove there The Hotel gives you the serenity you would need for sure! The staff are beyond welcoming.. they care so much to make you feel their hospitality :) Don’t hesitate to book it if you are looking for luxury, quietness, serenity and contemplating :) it is the place to go to!

Nothing

Everything was perfect. The staff was very friendly and helped us with all our wishes. From renting a car to giving us extra free coffee capsules. Breakfast is served at any time of your choosing and delivered to the room. Total relaxation is guaranteed.

nothing. if we could give 11/10, we would. They really go above and beyond to make your experience a perfect memory.

It's hard to find negative things to say about the retreat. Be it the spacious rooms with the private pool, the amazing staff or the perfect location (close to oia but far enough from the city noise), our stay was beyond expectations. Eleni & Panos are extremely nice people and ensured a home-like feeling for us throughout the entire stay. They went well and beyond with boat excursion reservation and car rental and general tips for the island. The common pool area was also a spoiling edition, swimming in an infinity pool with a volcano view and a bar to meet our cocktail needs. An experience to stay with us for years to come. Highly recommended place!

We had to leave :)

We booked villa Grace, i think with heated infinity pool and it was the ticket. Its an outstanding place to spend your holidays. The views are lovely. Place is extreamly quiet, you will not be distrupted. The paid breakfast was really nice, however perhaps for a slightly higher price, it could be included in the booking. Snacks we have tried were lovely too and the drinks were well made, the way they should be. Theres also a shareing pool with is nice. The room is well equipped, you get all u need. If im ever back in santorini it is very likely i will return to Elysian Retreat. Finally, you will be very well looked after and the hosts will go out of their way to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Greetings to everyone @ Elysian Retreat Santorini .

All was good

We loved the location and private pool the peacefulness and romance of the place was perfect.

The kitchen open times could be later.

We loved the retreat like property. Our personal plunge pool was beautiful as was our room. The staff were super friendly and helpful and made our stay extra special. They really made us feel like rockstars and didn’t let us lift a finger. The food and bar was great too. As was the additional laundry service for an additional 20 euros they washed, dried and folded our clothes which meant we didn’t have to search for a laundromat Highly recommend this place.

Nothing. The property is away from the centre of Pia and a decent 25-30min walk but we actually loved being away from the hustle and bustle and returning to our quiet retreat after a busy day of exploring.

We had the pleasure to stay at this stunning property for 2 nights, our only disappointment was that it was not longer. From initial booking through to check-in the amazing staff including Panos & Eleni, were efficient and helpful with our questions regarding dining options, transport etc. We stayed in the magnificent Villa Harmony Sea View (Villa 10) with an enormous private swimming pool and an outdoor seating area bigger than most people's apartments! We arrived hours before planned 15.00 check-in time however Panos facilitated a quick housekeeping turnaround of our villa so that we could unpack and start enjoying our private sanctuary. Likewise, the delightful Eleni graciously allowed us a late check out of 14.00pm which was amazing, we were so thrilled to have those extra few hours to savour this magnificent retreat. Oia is a 15-20min walk from the resort, close enough to see the sights however far enough away from the chaos of Oia, it was heaven to arrive back to our Villa to enjoy our sea view, catch the breeze and sip on a cocktail prepared by the beautiful Konstantina What a delightful young lady she is, nothing is too much trouble and she is there 12 hours every day always with a smile and wonderful welcome. Thank you to the team for providing us with a perfect two days to end what has been an incredible month long vacation in Europe. Santorini has been on our bucket list for so many years and choosing this resort was the smartest thing we could do. We have stayed in many, many hotels/resorts over the years, Elysian Retreat, Oia is our number one! We intend to return same time next year and can't wait to experience this little piece of paradise again!

Absolutely nothing. This place is perfection, managed by an incredible team.

Our experience in Elysian Retreat was just amazing! The stuff was just kind and super helpful with all our needs(car and boat rentals, recommendations about restaurants and attractions in the island) weeks before our arrival! The facilities of the room are wonderful - the private pool with amazing view and the big and comfortable room. It's very close to Oia but still quiet and relaxing. Super recommend! Thanks

The room was lovely and spacious. The reception staff were incredibly accommodating. Lovely breakfast options.

Nothing comes to mind!

The property was amazing! Every villa has a private pool and there is a really good main pool. Cocktails and food were excellent!

Nothing

The property is amazing! The rooms are beautiful and spacious. The outdoor area and private pool were our favourite part.

The view from the room and private pool towards the sea, watching the sun go down. The hospitality of the full team and the lovely breakfast in the morning which was served onto the room. We had a lot of help choosing several activities.

We don't have anything to complain.
