This is a must do place to stay! You are staying in a private villa, breakfast delivered to your patio each morning! This place is INSANELY BEAUTIFUL. The staff are the best! So warm and friendly, informative and accommodating. I have never been treated so well. I will 100% return here. Don’t miss out on this gem.

The room's design was very attractive, and comforts were enhanced by kitchen essentials and refridgerator. All staff, from reception to porter and those who brought us breakfast baskets and coffee each morning, were friendly and helpful. Views of caldera and surrounding villas were outstanding. Room was quiet and privacy was ensured despite central location. We highly recommend this fine establishment.

We stayed in the traditional villa for five nights. The view and location were absolutely stunning, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was acceptable for a short stay—perhaps one night—but for longer stays like ours, it lacked variety. It was very basic and repetitive, and having more options would have made a big difference. One thing we missed during our stay was a small microwave oven, which would have been very convenient. We mentioned this to the reception staff, and they kindly acknowledged the suggestion, saying they would consider adding one in the future. I hope they follow through on that—it would definitely enhance the experience. Overall, it was a good stay and a memorable experience. However, it's important to be aware in advance that reaching the villa requires going down (and up) 84 steps. This could be a challenge for some guests, especially with age or mobility concerns.

The property is unique and quaint. The villas have beautiful views of the caldera. While the villa was comfortable, it was like going back in time. There is no television in the room. The shower had no shower curtain nor glass so I was cold while showering and water got all over the bathroom floor. The breakfast was included with our room and delivered to our patio every morning. In order to get to our villa we had to go up and down several flights of steps. The good thing is the porter will carry your bags when you check in and when you check out from your room all the way to where you will be picked up by your taxi or transfer. The location is close to restaurants and shops. Overall it was a good experience.

Amazing service and views of Santorini

The stay was lovely. I was so impressed by the customer service. They reached out to me via Whatsapp a day or two before to offer transportation services (at a cost). I came right after my destination wedding so it was a nice relief to have this taken care of before arrival. The only slight negative or warning I have is to be careful with leaving food out in the kitchen. The hotel kindly delivered a plate of cheese, etc. Within an hour (maybe even just half an hour), there were already ants swarming our platter. It's not a big deal to my overall great experience, but I just would've eaten my platter way quicker if I had known.

Chelidonia Traditional Villas has an amazing view and if I find myself on Santorini again I'd re-book it. The staff were superb -- very friendly and helpful and even made restaurant bookings for us. You need to be reasonably fit to stay here -- it was 88 steps down to the villa from the main street in Oia, and of course Oia itself requires a bit of climbing to walk around on anything but the main street, as it's built on a cliff. Parking is an issue here. Now I've been, I'd recommend renting a car by the day as the car rental lot is on the edge of town and you could easily walk there to get/return the car.

It was a short stay, but a very pleasant and memorable stay. The hotel staff was excellent. I suggest booking airport transfer with them instead of taking a cab. If you book airport transport with them, they will have somebody waiting to help with bags upon arrival. Otherwise there might be an adventure of trying to find the check-in desk since transportation can only drop you off at the bottom of the hill which is a short walk to the check-in desk. Anyway, Irinia (hopefully I remembered her name correctly) was excellent. All her restaurant recommendations were excellent. She was very helpful. The breakfast at the balcony overlooking the sea was unbelievable. Would definitely come back to this hotel when in Santorini.

Perfect in every way!

I had a wonderful stay here. My ‘cave’ room was adorable and the view to die for. Location was great and close to everything you could want. The staff were helpful and friendly. Just be aware that there are lots of steps but that’s Oia! The only thing I would do differently next time was choose a pool room because it was super hot in September.
