Nice Hotel with Beach across the Street

30 Jun 2025
Superb private rooms with an own hot tub—very nice pool too. The beach across the street was delightful, and food (tuna and caviar) and specialty drinks served there too. Many delicious restaurants close by—highly recommend.

Fantastic Hotel

30 Jun 2025
This was our first visit to a Greek island and our seven night stay at Istoria was truly unforgettable. Istoria is a boutique and very personable hotel with only 12 suites, giving it a peaceful and exclusive feel. The pool area was beautifully designed and incredibly relaxing - perfect for chilled out days. The staff were great - always helpful and full of excellent recommendations for dining out, ranging from high end restaurants to charming local tavernas. They also gave us great tips for excursions and must-see spots around the island. A special shoutout to Stellios at the bar - he created a fantastic atmosphere and genuinely went out of his way to make sure every guest felt welcome and well taken care of. Overall, an exceptional stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to go back!

Istoria is magical!

30 Jun 2025
Istoria hotel is a very stylish yet relaxed, it has a peaceful chill vibe from the moment you walk in. The suites are gorgeous, the pool is so serene and the black beach is breathtaking. The food was also great, especially the breakfast. However, the best part of the hotel is the warm and friendly staff! They went out of their way to make sure that our stay was perfect. I have never felt more at home at a resort than I have at Istoria. A special shout out to Stelios. He is an amazing bartender whose cocktails were great and his company even better. We left feeling like we had made real connections and memories to last a lifetime. Can’t wait to return!

Deserves 5 Stars

31 Oct 2024
Our second visit and still a winner. Lovely setting, with stunning views of the mountain and only few steps from the beach. Immaculate and spacious rooms with top quality linen. Beautiful dining room with one of the best and varied breakfast menus I have experienced. The service is undoubtedly the winning feature, charming, warm, thoughtful and utterly professional. A tribute to the management of Vagelis. A special thanks to Vagelis, Florensia, Michaelis, Altin, Alexandros, Leonados and Costas. Memorable and impeccable service. With thanks S & K

Great!

Great atmosphere. Nice ambiance. Nice interior. Great staff and wonderful food. Close to a nice beach. Good beach club with really nice staff. The area around the hotel is not very interesting. So if you are staying many days you might need a car.

Tripadvisor Overview

At the sublime junction where the black volcanic sand of Perivolos Beach meets the midnight blue waters of the Aegean Sea, one finds Istoria, a 12-suite retreat, where a unique blend of classic and contemporary aesthetics animates a next-generation social hub, while embracing all the needs of modern and sophisticated travelers, for an experience that is wholly and authentically Greek. As if sculpted from the hand of some chthonic deity and bathed in bright Cycladic sunshine, Istoria’s 12 idyllic suites are impressively arched towards the privacy of verdant terraces, crowned, in most cases, with private outdoor hot tubs or pools, offering an additional layer of refuge to this resplendent haven.
