Select Italy comprises a large range of accommodation, from simple residences to luxury hotels. The official ratings are based on certain facilities or services being available and they do not take into account the size of the bedrooms or public rooms, nor the preferred décor of the owner, which may be at odds with your taste. Hotels in the same category, even in the same resort, can vary considerably in character, ambience, service and facilities and may not offer the same staffing levels and facilities, or be as well maintained. it must be bourne in mind that cost is a good indication of standards, particulary when comparing hotels in the same star rating.
As well as the hotel's official star rating, we have also given our own special rating, based on our personal opinion. This rating should be taken into consideration, especially when comparing hotels of the same official star rating. By all means browse our website to get an idea of what we offer. However, if like many of our repeat customers, you would like the reassurance of speaking to someone with first hand knowledge of a particular property or area, then do call us.

About the hotel
Istoria, a member of Design Hotels, located in Santorini, Perivolos; Thira Airport is approx. 30 minutes transfer.
SETTING & STYLE
Istoria, a Member of Design Hotels, is a 12 suite retreat and located on Santorini’s paradisiac eastern half, right on the seafront of the renowned black sand beach of Perivolos, a 3km stretch of volcanic black sand in the pristine eastern side of the island that is still left undisturbed by the visiting crowds.
The spaces in the hotel are intended to make guests feel as if they are living in an authentic Santorinian mansion, reminiscing the estate that once stood in its place. The premises included 5 stables where the former owner used to keep her beloved horses.The building elements of the original estate are incorporated in the interiors of the suites, creating a spectacular combination of original and contemporary features. Every corner is imbued with a sense of intimacy, relaxation, and most importantly, comfort, for a prevailing atmosphere that feels like a home from home. This vision is brought to life by the Athens-based firm Interior Design Laboratorium, who have replicated the experience of a Santorini mansion via a fusion of traditional island architecture and a stripped-down contemporary aesthetic that pervades all areas.
Guests over 14 years of age welcome
RESTAURANTS & BARS
Open to the elements beneath canvas sails with stylishly rustic wooden tables and chairs set on the black sand, Istoria’s Mr. E Restaurant, led by the celebrated Chef Alexandros Tsiotinis, is home to Greek gastronomy reimagined.
