PB hotel design editorial

Carved directly into the volcanic caldera cliff at Imerovigli — the highest point on Santorini's rim, known locally as the balcony of the Aegean — On The Rocks is one of the few properties on the island where the architecture feels genuinely determined by geology rather than merely inspired by it. The building cascades down the cliff face in a sequence of whitewashed terraces, domed cave rooms, and private plunge pools, the whole composition stepping toward the caldera in a rhythm that echoes the Cycladic vernacular without reproducing it as pastiche. The volcanic basalt of the cliff breaks through interior walls visibly, treated not as something to be concealed behind plaster but as a design element in its own right — raw grey stone left exposed alongside a bed frame, or rising behind a sofa, insisting on the geological drama beneath every room. The interiors pursue a deliberately restrained palette: white lime-rendered barrel-vault ceilings, polished concrete floors, and furniture finished in charcoal-stained oak and matte black steel. Bathrooms carry the same logic, with rough-hewn stone counters and open-plan layouts that dissolve the boundary between sleeping and bathing. The cliff-edge restaurant terrace, sheltered beneath a whitewashed pergola strung with filament bulbs, frames the submerged caldera and Nea Kameni island in a view that shifts from hard blue to amber at sunset. At night, the tiered massing glows warmly against a deep Aegean sky, the lit pool below reflecting arched stonework in turquoise.

On The Rocks Santorini Reviews

"Please make sure to lock up your valuables, including clothing, when you stay at this hotel. I had several pieces of my clothing stolen from my suitcase in our room at this hotel during our stay. I reported it to the front desk the day we departed and they said they could not find my items. I even contacted management who told me the same thing and we got no help to try to get to the bottom of this. They need to have a more secure system in place so this does not happen to guests. It's such ashame because the hotel views are stunning and we enjoyed our stay until this happened. They stole several of my favorite shirts and other items, which was so upsetting. We will not return to this hotel for a stay again."

"We stayed our last night in Santorini at On The Rocks. The room had a loft bedroom with a window view of the Aegean Sea. The cave pool was fun, and Linda had a facial that she described as the best she’s ever had. The staff was fantastic and accommodating. We had a 3:30 ferry to Crete and they allowed a late checkout and arranged for a taxi to the port. Expect to climb stairs and hills when visiting. Beautiful views and very relaxing."

"BREATHTAKING VIEWS, Perfect location near Fira and all shops, great staff! I wasn’t sure before booking because it wasn’t directly in Fira but upon arriving I was completely sold! The hotel is perched directly in front of the sea so our view each morning was absolutely stunning! We rewuested the caldera honeymoon suite but I think our room was much bigger thanks to the hotel - we had a separate bedroom, living room, kitchen area and our hot tub inside had a direct view of the Aegean Sea. It’s located in Imerovigli- which is just 5-10 minutes max from Fira but still has the same oceanic view!"

"One of the most stunning places to wake up to in the morning as you open your door and the staff are there with your breakfast. Very clean .all the staff are very respectful and polite. A special thanks to the staff that made the amazing creations on the bed. The only down side is that you must train for the many steps."

"Beautiful, romantic hotel with amazing views. We stayed for three nights in a deluxe room. Staff were amazing. They helped us book a restaurant for the sunset view. Breakfast can be served to your room, which is lovely."
