The charming five * hotel is located in the village of Imerovigli, at the highest point of the caldera, right on the edge of the cliff surrounded by natural landscapes. The hotel is a 5-minute walk from the centre of Imerovigli, where guests will find, restaurants, a pharmacy, a few shops and a bus station. The centre of Fira, with its bars and varied nightlife, is 1.9 km from the hotel, while the airport is around 12 km away. the hotel is just 1km from the ancient fortress of Skaros.
The hotel is comprised of two wings, with 25 apartments in total. The Traditional Wing, located higher on the cliff of Caldera offering less stairs, includes seven studios/suites built into the rock, while the Petra Wing, located lower on the cliff and closer to the main facilities, offers 18 studios/suites built from the rocks of the volcanic mountains. Renovated in 2018, the air-conditioned establishment offers a 24-hour lobby, a 24-hour pool bar, an a la carte restaurant, wireless Internet, a parking lot, concierge department, room and laundry services.
All of our rooms offer a phenomenal view of the South side of the Caldera and the volcano.

Stunning views, but be prepared for the hills!
We had a lovely stay at Honeymoon Petra Villas in Santorini, and the views are honestly some of the most beautiful I have ever seen. The location is spectacular, with incredible views across the caldera, Fira and the Aegean Sea. We could see the cruise liners coming in and out, which was amazing to watch, and both the sunrises and sunsets were absolutely breathtaking.
The setting is truly what makes this place special, and it was wonderful to sit and take in the scenery throughout the day. If you're looking for somewhere with unforgettable Santorini views, this is definitely worth considering.
One thing to be aware of, however, is that the area is very hilly, with lots of steps and some slippery surfaces. We found it quite difficult to get around at times, so I would not recommend it for anyone with mobility issues or who may struggle with steep inclines and uneven surfaces.
We also found the restaurants nearby to be a bit hit and miss in terms of food quality. As a vegetarian, I found the options and quality varied quite a lot, so this is something to bear in mind when planning where to eat.
Overall, though, the incredible location and views were the highlight of our stay. Santorini is stunning, and waking up to those views every day was unforgettable.

World-class stay at gorgeous Honeymoon Petra Villas!!
We had an amazing stay at Honeymoon Petra Villas. The property had stunning views of the caldera and the town of Fira and also the gorgeous sunsets. The hotel was very nice; one of the very best hotels we’ve stayed at in all of our travels in the world. The service levels were outstanding and the staff was very friendly, engaging and courteous - all functions of the staff, dining, poolside bartender, cleaning staff and our luggage beasts! The food also was outstanding, including a pretty phenomenal breakfast buffet. We stayed for three nights after visiting Athens and Naxos and really, this hotel in Santorini was simply the best part of a great trip to Greece. We actually arrived on a Wednesday and were lucky enough to experience a live singer at the restaurant for dinner outdoors and overlooking the caldera with the lights of Fira in the background - she also played the flute and sax and it really added to the relaxing dining atmosphere. There was really no reason to leave the hotel, although we did enjoy a sunset dinner in Oia and also, to get the heart pumping, within view of the hotel, we hiked up and down to Skaros, which was very cool. It is also worth a second d mention to our luggage guys, who carried our luggage to and fro, up and down to the car drop - we were very grateful! All-in-all, this hotel from location, accommodation, culinary and service were simply world class. We would love to return again and highly recommend to others. Lastly, all pics included are views from the hotel, except for the church, which was in the sea side of the Skaros hill. Stunning!

Amazing stay
We had the most magical stay at Honeymoon Petra villas. We had a superior Petra suite with a gorgeous terrace with the most breathtaking view of the Caldera. The room was amazing - very spacious and all the amenities you could ask for. The pool area was stunning - a gorgeous infinity pool over looking the gorgeous Caldera. The restaurant also had the best view of the sunset where you can sit and enjoy a delicious cocktail. Very short walk to all the lovely restaurants in Imerovigli! The best thing about the hotel is the wonderful staff - they all went above & beyond to make our stay so special! Thanks again and we will definitely be back!

Amazing Hotel on Caldera in Imerovigli
I stayed at the Honeymoon Petra Villas with my husband and sister and her husband. I can say enough about the staff and their hospitality. From the moment we arrived to the day we left, they were friendly, accommodating and such hard workers. The view is amazing! The pool area and bar give you stunning views of the Caldera where you can have drinks and eat lunch or dinner. Breakfast comes with the room which was also wonderful with fresh yogurts, pastries, eggs etc. You can walk from the hotel in to Fira which is the capital. We also booked massages right at the hotel which were fantastic and not overly expensive. One thing to note, there are a lot of stairs. Santorini as a whole has a lot of stairs because you are on a cliff. Might not be a good choice for elderly or handicapped people. The hotel is in Imerovigli which is not as crowded as Fira or Oia. I highly recommend!
