Avaton Resort and Spa — Hotel in Municipality of Thira

We stayed at the hotel in August 2023. It was our honeymoon, and we were graciously upgraded to a suite. The suite was spacious and featured a balcony with an amazing view overlooking the sea and the islands' coast. The room was equipped with everything we needed, from towels to disposable toothbrushes and shaving blades - and more. The bed was large with a very comfortable mattress. We also had bathrobes and cozy fleece blankets for outdoor seating in the evening. In the room, there was a safety box with a digital code, a fan, a small coffee machine, an electric tea pot, tea, sugar, cups, and more. A lovely touch included a welcoming bottle of wine, small chocolates, and a regular supply of fresh fruits, which were added to our fruit basket throughout our stay. Additionally, we received two complimentary small bottles of water every day.

Breakfast in the room was a fantastic option, allowing us to start our day in the comfort of our own space. The service was personalized, with the time and options chosen the day before, making it very convenient. Besides, the breakfast was very tasty!

The room service was flawless, leaving us with nothing to complain about, and the room was consistently well-maintained.

Although the swimming pool at the hotel wasn't very large, it was sufficient for relaxation. The limited number of guests at the hotel prevented overcrowding, allowing us the luxury of sometimes having the pool entirely to ourselves. The pleasant chill-out music in common areas contributed to a relaxing ambiance, further enhancing our overall enjoyment of the stay.

The hotel itself, while small, was clean. They also offer spa and massage services, which need to be booked in advance. In essence, they provide everything for a comfortable and relaxing stay.

Throughout our stay, the manager and staff were exceptionally helpful, making us feel well taken care of.

Furthermore, the manager remained easily accessible via WhatsApp and provided substantial assistance with transfers to different places on the island. This considerate gesture significantly added to the overall convenience of our trip.

The location of the hotel is also superb! It's close to many supermarkets and small grocery stores. The bus stop is also nearby. It is within walking distance to Fira (maybe 30-40 minutes) with fascinating views!

We had a wonderful experience and enjoyed our time at the hotel and on the island, never regretting the...

A quiet, small hotel in the most beautiful location, the views were breathtaking. We stayed in a superior room and it was lovely, it had tea /coffee making facilities, a smart tv (bring a fire stick etc.. as the limited English channels worked very sporadically) air conditioning and fresh fruit & a bottle of local wine on arrival, much appreciated. The pool area was right on the cliff path so even though it was really tranquil there were constantly people walking past you while you soaked up the sun. The staff in the hotel were super helpful and friendly and the breakfast to order was wonderful. I would have loved the music around the pool to have been more varied, it was the same 20 songs on repeat all day, every day for 7 days although I did appreciate that it was only background music, non intrusive. The cliff walk takes around 45 minutes to Fira (great shopping!) with scenic stops & over 2 hours in the opposite direction to Oia, be warned though that you will need good walking shoes/boots especially on the Oia route as it is extremely rough in parts with steep inclines, if you do walk it you will never forget the magnificent views in all directions. There was a lovely breeze a lot of the time so bring a wrap for the evenings. The only critique I have is that the drinks in the hotel were too expensive, the bar was unmanned so you had to locate someone if you wanted to order something. It would have been better as an honesty bar with more reasonable prices and then we would have used it and enjoyed it. Imerovigli has enough restaurants without needing to walk far, I would say that it wasn’t a gastronomic holiday, the food in all the restaurants we tried was just ok and as expected in Santorini was also expensive. We really enjoyed our holiday mainly due to the lovely people in the hotel, the beautiful weather and...
