Rimida is a quaint and quiet accomodation close to Oia attractions. We had a short but lovely stay. The appointed amenities in
Villa 4 was perfect for us. Dimitri was very attentive to our needs.

Amazing location with great people !
We love The hotel location and their team. Although is not a 24 hrs reception but always there to answer our question or needs. You can’t beat the location and the views. You in the best area of Oia yet far away from crazy tourist traffics . Walk to the bus stop or shops and restaurants. We definitely would recommend this place to anyone !
Located perfectly 3 minutes from the center on town. The host, Dimitri, provided all in the information necessary and made arrangements for us as needed. The house was clean and well equipped. The villas are near mini markets and bus stops. Excellent experience for us.
My fiancé and I loved Rimida Villas! It was very clean, the view was amazing and the hot tub was great! The staff is very kind and courteous. They have great customer service. When we arrived and left the villa a gentleman assisted us with our luggage to and from the room. (You have to walk up and down stairs, so that was very much appreciated.) wish we knew his name! But we provided him a tip for his help. Another gentleman, Dimitri was also very kind to us. Very attentive and informational. Amazing service! Very hardworking! Everyone who works there is very nice. Breakfast is provided at your terrace every morning at your request. There are several restaurants near by and a small market less than a 5 min walk. Great location, quiet at night and throughout the day. Beautiful place, we highly recommend it!
Absolutely loved our stay!! Everything was lovely, the views, the rooms, definitely COVID friendly. The staff was very kind and courteous. Breakfast is served on the terrace, loved everything about our stay.
We celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary at Rimida Villas and certainly wish we can go back! Dimitry the property manager is an exceptional person, very helpful, friendly and always goes over and above our needs, we felt welcome, and his recommendations for tours and local places to visit made our short stay completed and fabulous. Starting the day with fresh breakfast at the terrace with the best view was one of those moments that we treasure the most!
My husband and I had an amazing experience at Rimida Villas! First, the room itself was incredible and the view was perfect. You get a view of the coast with one of Santorini's famous blue domed churches in the background -- perfect for sunset photos! Dimitri and the hotel staff were so friendly and accommodating. Dimitri helped us arrange airport transfers and Covid testing in Oia (which we needed to fly back to the US). The breakfast was a lovely start to the day and the mini pool was really enjoyable during our downtime. Plus, we were only a 15 minute walk to the main square in Oia!
Loved everything about the property. Dimitri was a GREAT host. The traditional cave rooms are huge, and all the rooms have the perfect view of the caldera. I will definitely want to go back again.

Good location. Was kinda hard to find. The wifi come and goes often in the room. The hot tub was nice.
I very much enjoyed my stay! Dimitri and the staff were all very helpful and nice. Loved breakfast on our private patio every day. Delivered with a smile and always yummy and fresh! Drawback…Having to keep requesting new towels and tP was frustrating I think it’s due to COVID a wanting less interaction but the towels take forever to dry and it’s icky using a damp one the next day . Location was perfect. 10 minute walk to Ammoudi. Nearby market and food. Very homey traditional feel. The only thing that would’ve made this stay any better would be having a pool on site for the dips in between all the fun and action in the burning Med Sun but The private jacuzzi was awesome and better than nothing. It definitely helped as it’s not “hot” but warm. With a little updating of the room decor this place is a gem! Thank you for everything Rimida
My husband and I loved the amazing views from our balcony, the spacious traditional cave room, and the excellent customer service. Dimitri helped with every step of our trip including booking a spectacular sunset cruise, transfers, and ATV rental. We enjoyed the bed & breakfast feel and sitting on our balcony every morning taking in the views. The location was perfect (only a 10 minute walk to great shops and restaurants) but away from the hustle and bustle of many Oia properties. Definitely recommend!
The room and view were amazing. It is close to everything in Oia. You can walk to all the sights. It is set just out of the main tourist area so there is privacy and very quiet in the evenings. Breakfast is served on your private terrace. This is the ultimate hotel for a relaxing and romantic getaway.
Our stay was incredible! A truly beautiful room with a spectacular view of caldera as welll as the Oia sunset. Breakfast was enjoyed daily on the balcony, and when we had a trip breakfast was served slightly earlier than usual to ensure we didn’t miss the transfer! Staff couldn’t be more helpful with questions and helped organise a wonderful day trip. Facilities were wonderful and clean! And the villas are just a short walk from restaurants and the centre of Oia (10 minutes max).
We couldn’t recommend Rimida villas more! Thank you for a wonderful stay!
Rimida Villas is amazing! The staff couldn’t be more helpful. The view is incredible and the room is lovely. It’s an easy walk to the shops in Oia but all I wanted to do was sit on my balcony and enjoy the view. The spa is also great. You will love this hotel!
From check in to check out Dimitris and team gave us excellent treatment and advice
Will highly recommend this property.
In room breakfast was excellent and location too
Rimida Villas are the quiet & private place to stay. We each had our own patios where a delicious breakfast was serviced every morning. The individual hot tubs were delightful! Softer pillows would be helpful, but everything else was wonderful. Wonderful staff.
The property is located at the eastern edge of Oia. This is perfect for creating a sense of privacy, even when the cruise ship crowds are heaviest. Walking into the more dense part of the town only takes five minutes at a leisurely stroll.
The view from the house is superb! The entire caldera is laid out in front of you, and the sun sets behind the silhouettes of the town and old castle with no obstruction or crowds. Breakfast was simple, but reliably delicious, and a convenient way to start the day with no agenda or restaurant to get to.
If you're looking for a great base for adventures in Oia on foot the Rimida is a great choice. Loved every minute of our time there!
Perfect location on the Caldera. We watched the sunset every night from our balcony. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Every recommendation we asked for was perfect. The traditional cave rooms were really cool to stay in (wouldn't have it any other way. It was a great experience overall. One issue: The bed was uncomfortable. A comfortable bed is highly sought after when traveling.
