Top service and great villa!
We stayed at Rock Villas from July 3-7. We had a wonderful stay! The host team and Katerina were really helpful and of great service! 5 star customer service ;)
Katerina facilitated renting cars for our whole family (11!). Great recommendations on activities, restaurants and views. When we we had a question, it was answered in a speedy and efficient manner. WoW! Villa was very clean. Great view from the rooftop and good refreshing pool. Perfect for big family. We recommend it!!!

Excellent!
The property is amazing and very nice decorated with luxurious elements. The Villa is really comfortable and clean.
We enjoyed some moments in the two yards. The one had a small pool and the other with the jacuzzi, a very nice outdoor dining area with view of the beautiful village of Emporio and very close the medieval castle!
We will definitely visit you again in the near future.
Thank you
Despina and family 💙

Paradise
Rock Villa is an incredibly beautiful accommodation. It is in Emporio which is a location for residents of Santorini and the food and produce is very cheap. The beach is very close and the seafood at Perissa Beach is amazing and also very cheap.
Our time at the Rock Villa was unforgettable!

Amazing Hidden Gem
Rock Villas is an excellent place to stay in Santorini . The Villa and it's grounds are beautiful and well kept. I highly recommend Rock Villas, if you are looking for a beautiful quiet retreat, it is an hidden gem.
Vera provided a very comfortable stay. Vera was amazing. I feel like we gained a friend. She greeted us with a warm welcome and a variety of meats, cheeses, fresh fruit, juices and a carafe of wine, which was a much need treat after a long day of traveling. Vera was very sweet, attentive, and always available to provide info about places to go.
Other Villa's and places could learn a lesson in hospitality from Rock Villas and Vera.
Rock Villas is Very relaxing with all amenities available.

Charming Villa in Santorini
We were a group of 4 couples ans we had an amazing stay in the Rock Villa. Verra our host, was very nice and friendly. The villa is very charming and beauthifully decorated, we has a blast in the yard with the pool and nice views. The villa is well located, 20 -25 minutes from everywhere. The only negative was the house below, it had no windows and smelled of humudity.
I recommand this villa to any type of group, adults or family...truly a special place!
Thanks Verra for your geat hospitality :)

Havre de paix
Très bon séjour entre amis nous étions 10
Au calme en total sécurité au point de laisser nos portables dehors toute la nuit !
Proche de tout en scoot
Seul soucis une salle de douche avec WC pour la grande chambre de plusieurs couchages et pas assez de intimité mais pour le reste impeccable
