This property was top notch, excellent service and outstanding facility. The rooms were beautiful and well equipped. We had a room with a plunge pool. All rooms had view of Caldera, table for breakfast and lounge chairs. The staff was extremely attentive. The pool bar/restaurant was small but good food and drinks. We were picked up at the airport and all luggage transferred to our room. There's a lot of walking and steps so it was very appreciated. Absolutely beautiful stay. The room would be cleaned and stocked when we left during day and evening. The staff would leave ice, fresh water bottles and chocolates. Very unique "cave" like room with large bathroom and lovely sitting area. All white walls and decorations. Bathroom with all modern amenities. The breakfast everyday overseeing the Caldera was exquisite with fruits, fresh juices, coffee, eggs, waffles. Delicious. There is nothing negative I can say. Went on a trip with my teenage daughter and it was wonderful time. Walked to Fira and evening trip to Oia for sunset dinner. Perfect vacation. Stayed for three days after visiting Athens. Make sure to take the Catamaran trip one day--worth it.

A beautiful location with the most amazing views across the caldera. Everything here is organised and run with perfection and discreet efficiency. Every member of staff is charming, helpful and respectful - absolutely nothing is too much trouble. They are there to help and advise whenever you need but are quiet and unintrusive. The hotel is pretty, cleverly designed and spotlessly clean, bed linen and towels changed everyday (towels twice or more!). Breakfast is brought to you on your terrace - lots of choice and all delicious. The swimming pool is lovely and we never had to share it! We stayed in the lovely Caldera suite with the jetted plunge pool which was great fun. Our couples massages were the best I’ve ever had - thank you to our masseurs! Marialena was so helpful, before and during our stay, and willing to assist us with anything - as were all the staff there. I could go on and on! We loved our stay at the Iconic! Notes 1. The steps could be challenging to anyone not too fit! 2. From about 2.30/3 pm there is NO shade on the terrace!

The room was absolutely gorgeous, and as advertised. Be ready to climb a 100 stairs to your room though. We got a room with a jacuzzi, and the bartender would deliver our drinks to us there that was super helpful. The staff overall were exceptional, and welcoming! Please be aware when booking that the patio's and jacuzzi's are not blocked off from the rooms next door, or the people walking up And down the stairs.

Everything was wonderful. We had a room with hоt tube.

Perfect stay
Excellent stay. Would book again. Imerivigli is quieter than two big towns most stay in. Highest point on island (for lodging) and views are great. Service was excellent. Special call out to Georgia who was amazing. Place is spotless. We were upgraded without asking due to hotels.com status (the first time I think this ever happened). Breakfast included was very good. Would book room with outdoor jacuzzi if possible.
