A hidden gem
Hara could not be more helpful from our checkin whereby we were given a free upgrade and the help and information she gave us.
Room and our view was fantastic.
Only regret was we only stayed for 3 nights.
Will definitely be back again.

The villa was beautiful and very clean. Hara was very helpful and friendly. We were able to store our bags at reception before our room was ready which was very helpful. Our room was ready 2 hours before regular check in time which was amazing. The only small complaint is that the property description said there was laundry in the building which was not the case. We were told that the closest laundry place was in Fira so not ideal if you can’t rent a car.

Quiet well maintained Villa
Imerovigil is about 2 miles north of Santorini. The hotel is older but has a nice view and the rooms are quiet, well maintained and clean. Due to the ferry schedule I arrived after the office had closed at five pm. I called Hara and she arrived promptly to check me in. The bed is quite firm but acceptable. There is a small refrigerator and safe. Compared to Santorini or Oia, Imerovigli is smaller, quiet with much less tourist traffic. There is a bus stop a few blocks from the hotel for access to Oia or Santorini. Hara is very helpful with local attractions and helped arrange an airport transport at 6 am. I enjoyed avoiding the crowds and the party crowd. I would stay there again if I travel to Greece.

Property was fantastic and in a great location, and Hara was wonderful. She answered our many questions and helped with our requests. We wish we had access to a do not disturb sign to turn down housekeeping and a controllable hot tub temperature, but otherwise everything was great.

We arrived really late on but Hara was really helpful, she sorted out our transfers when we landed in Santorini and she sent me instructions for the room we was staying in so we didn’t disturb anyone.
Great help Hara, Thankyou very much!!

First time in Santorini
Had a nice stay at Villa Happening in Imarovigli. Easy walk to Fira, Skaros rock, but to Oia, etc. It's much quieter than Fira or Oia. But no beach nearby. The rooms are cute but small, esp the bathroom. Service is good, Hara is very helpful. We had nice view of sunrise from the balcony.

Hara was very friendly and helpful, she helped us organize a boat tour to the volcano as well as our transfer to the port. The room was very clean and spacious, a great value for the price. We loved hanging out on our balcony in the mornings, watching the sea and the hens foraging in the back lot. It was very quiet and peaceful which can be hard to find in Santorini during high season. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Happening Is Happening!
Villa Happening couldn't offer a full voucher for next year for my brother and his wife to stay when we try our wedding again in Greece. Haven't been yet but it's an excellent value to be on the caldera and is traditional Greek looking, which I'm anxious for my brother to see when he visits for our wedding.

Great location in Imerovigli
Our stay was very comfortable. Hara went out of her way to help us with all the questions we had. The villa is steps away from the Caldera in a very convenient location. Our room was a bit small, but comfortable and offered all the amenities we needed. We were even given beach towels for a grip to the beach. Overall, a very pleasant stay. Thank you!
