10/10 Exceptional

The rooms are beautiful with a gorgeous view. The walk and climbing the stairs up to the resort was a little tricky as I just had knee surgery but definitely worth it for the view and accommodation. The beds are extremely firm if you are used to a softer bed.

Great experience. Scenic views. Warm environment. Vicki in the office was amazing. Responsive to emails prior to our trip and she was very helpful the whole time.

DO NOT STAY!!

Never once in the description of the hotel, does it give any warning that people with any disability or mobility issues should not and will not be able to stay at this property. It was utterly ridiculous. (I would like to point out, however, that Vickie was extremely helpful.)
Alice, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hotel is truly beautiful and has a unique view. Be prepared to climb a lot of stairs, but it's worth it!
Melissa, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful location but have to be able to do stairs to get around. Seafood dining close, other restaurants up the stairs in Oia. Very convenient for a catamaran tour. Will stay here again, just to look over the water when you get up and go to bed

Amazing property! Beautiful view and in a location that’s perfect if you want peace and quiet. Vicki at the reception was SUPER helpful with organizing transportation and excursions while on the island - she alone made my trip 10x easier. Highly recommend!

This place was amazing and in a beautiful location right where the nice restaurants are and most of the boat tours leave from which was great! I’m truly greatful for the late check-in where reception was ready to great us and check-in after midnight, she was friendly and welcoming. You can’t ask for more for definitely worth the price!
Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The place was nice and was in a very cool location on the water however it was not clear where to go when dropped by the taxi and there were at least 50 stairs (no elevator) that had to be maneuvered with luggage. The stairs are not all the same sizes and woupd be terrible for elderly Transfers from the airport or port are expenses. This location is at the bottom of Oia. And it’s f yiu need to go tot he top yiu have to take the cobblestone stairs that are in ver 200 stairs going one way. I’m r walk on the street for about 20-30 min We did like the catamaran tour of the black red and white sand beach although it did say you got to sit in the hot springs there was no time for that The host was very helpful

Hannah, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a wonderful one night stay at Lava Stone. We chose Ammoudi Bay over the main town Oia for the quiet setting and beautiful view, away from the overrun main town. All catamarans etc come into this bay for the sunset and we were able to watch it from the privacy of our own terrace. The hike up the big cobblestone steps to the main town is a bit exhausting - you can ride a mule up the hill instead if you wish… Do take advantage of them organizing a pick up for you from the port / airport. Not cheap, but very pleasant ride. Be aware that the car cannot reach the property and you have to carry your luggage up several flights of stairs. We only had a backpack, so that was no issue for us.

10/10 Exceptional

Even though we had to lug our luggage up the steps to the hotel, we loved it! No complaints here. Vicky in reception reached out to me a week before to arrange transportation from the airport to the hotel as well as our transfer to the ferry. She also arrange to have our luggage brought down to the shuttle on our departure. The restaurants below the hotel were wonderful. Wish we had more time to spend at Lava Stone to enjoy the sunrise. Walking the 250 steps up to take pictures by the blue domes were well worth it. Loved everything about Greece. Recommendation, do your shopping in Athens because it’s so much cheaper than the islands.
