My Family and I traveled to Santorini for 8 days in August. I have 6 year twins and We had the most wonderful time there. This was our first time not booking through our travel agent and booking directly with the hotel. I was a little nervous at first. Markos the owner met us late at night to greet us once the Taxi arrived. I can not begin to tell you how wonderful the hospitality of Markos and his family was. We felt like we were staying at their home. He made sure every one of our needs were met. To top it all they love children... I am use to staying at 5 star hotels like Four Seasons around the world and this one tops it all. I highly highly Hotel Kallisto. The hotel has only 9 rooms and the pictures on their web sight don't do it justice .....The rooms are amazing with a lot of charm and original antiques. We Loved it ........We want to go back next year.

Even though we live on the island of Rhodes throughout the summer, my wife and I fancied somewhere within striking distance in which to spend our 2nd wedding anniversary. A search of the Internet turned up the Kallisto in Imerovigli. We arranged flights ourselves via 'Air Express' and the Hotel arranged for our collection from the airport.

The standard of accommodation and service were second to none. Our room/suite was beautifully furnished with antiques and every mod con we could wish for. Our outside terrace had stunning views across the Caldera, it was a wonderful place in which to enjoy our sumptious breakfasts. The Hotel is family owned and operated and it certainly shows. Marcos, the son of the owners and Manager of the Kallisto, provided a friendly and attentive service with which we were very pleased. Nothing was too much trouble for either him or his small team of staff.

Everything about the Hotel is very well thought out and immaculately presented. The pool area, with private access directly from our room, was spacious and comfortable. We were lucky enough to have the whole thing to ourselves one day, with only the barman from the pool bar up there with us, but discretely keeping out of the way until otherwise needed. It really was a luxurious and relaxing place in which to while away the afternoon.

Imerovigli itself is very quite. No real town centre as such, just a few shops and the odd bar or two. It's a good 15-20 minute walk down to Thira, a journey by Taxi takes only a very few minutes and costs around 5E. Plenty to see and do in Thira, a good contrast to the peace and quite of the Hotel.

Overall I would be more than happy to recommend the Kallisto. It's not the cheapest place to stay on Santorini, I think we paid 300E per night for bed and breakfast, but I feel that you really do get what you paid for. Enjoy!!

If you are ever thinking of visiting the wonderful Island of Santorini, you must, I repeat, YOU MUST check into the Hotel Kallisto. This is a hidden gem, and you will NOT be dissapointed. This small hotel, with it's unbelievable views, offers service that the big hotels have seem to forgotten to offer. Marcos and Ellias and family are just remarkable, and the best thing about them is that they treat you more like a member of their own family, than a guest. They are very special people, and their hotel is, well to put it plainly...IT"S PARADISE. Check out there site at [-], and believe me,you will really enjoy yourselves. My wife and I will be going back again and again. We spent our honeymoon there, and we couldn't have be happier.

This hotel is a little known gem at the peak of the small town of Imergovigli in Santorini. It has sweeping views of the villages below and of the volcano in the middle of the sea. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly, eager to make your experience a good one. I wasn't going to write a review, but the other hotels that are recommended deserve a good competitor. It also has a fantastic pool with a great view and enough room to actually swim around. Above all that... the rooms are amazing with marble floors and antinques in some. This place is worth checking out!
