Cori Rigas Suites

We went to Cori Rigas in 1999 on our honeymoon and spent our 25 year anniversary there in April. Amar and the staff are amazing, and having breakfast on the balcony overlooking the sea is almost unbelievable. In 25 years, Santorini has changed a lot, but the rooms are still the same (and great). I'm tempted to write a horrible review so it doesn't get crowded, but that isn't fair to these guys.

This hotel was absolutely incredible !!! The view was hands down the best in all of Santorini and the staff were so kind and generous ! They were so attentive and helpful it honestly was one of the best vacations of my life! We stayed in room 11 and it was huge! So much space and private balcony and hot tub! I could go on and on and on about this amazing place but honestly book for yourself and see! You won’t be disappointed !!!

Exceeded all expectations! The view from the hotel was incredible, our room had everything we needed, and the staff of the hotel went above and beyond to accommodate us and make our stay enjoyable.

The property is dated.. the bathroom is really really tiny. Apart from that pretty spacious room and outdoor area. Mind it that we took a senior suite so the smaller rooms I’m not sure. If this is your first time in santorini.. please know this is a walk down 3 levels and quite difficult for people with any breathing issues. Staff was awesome breakfast pretty avg.

A fantastic boutique hotel consisting of 17 suites, all perched on the edge of the Caldera rim below the Hotel Atlantis at Fira/Santorini. Getting to it is a hike up the barricaded approach road and down a winding set of walkways and steep stairs. The hotel provides porter service to carry luggage down and up - the porter performs yeoman service, it is extremely strenuous with the heat and the weight of the luggage. He cheerfully hails the luggage even at early or late hours! Sincere thanks to him for the help provided. The hotel suites all have been lovingly restored from their original set up as a sea captain’s accommodations. The suites are reminiscent of old colonial bungalow rooms - they are tastefully decorated with antique wooden furniture and art pieces from the owner’s personal collection - beautiful autographed (by the owner’s relative) paintings hang on the walls. Our suite was large and accommodated all four of us in three separate areas, including a loft. The rooms were all beautifully appointed and had modern conveniences. The suite overlooked the Caldera, offering fantastic picture postcard views of the sea - sitting in the front or in the balcony, we were able to rake in spectacular sunsets! Breakfast could be ordered each day and was served in front of the suite by friendly and dedicated waitstaff. The spread was elaborate/substantial, consisting of breads/croissants/pastries, cereals, cheese and meat platters, eggs cooked several ways, fruit platter, juices, and coffees! Art Cafe in the reception area one level up, offered drinks and snacks. Service provided by the hotel was 7-star!! Fantastic staff all the way round, eager to satisfy every want and need. They truly spoiled us during our 4-day stay! We were sad to leave and look forward to returning soon. Cori Rigas is a superb spot; highly recommend not just for the location and amenities, but more so for the superb care that the staff takes to ensure a magical stay! Wow! Kudos to the owner and staff!

Lovely property with fabulous views and helpful friendly staff. Just a short walk from the main area of Thira.

Lots of stairs to go up and down. Small bathroom and cause water gathering on the floor. Too noisy at night because of the area with lots of tourists.

Just an amazing family hotel that truly has a soul

Easy access to all tourist sight seeing places
