The cliff villages of Santorini are the most popular locations for a stay.

Hotels in Oia

Renowned for its romantic sunset views, Oia is the most photogenic village of Santorini but maybe also of the entire Cycladic group.
Oia attracts numerous visitors every day and is one of the best places for your hotel since it emits an authentic aura. Its narrow alleys are full of whitewashed houses, blue-domed churches, and windmills, making the landscape look like a postcard.
The village’s location on the caldera is ideal, allowing you to have excellent views of the sea and the volcano.
Oia is also one of the liveliest places at any time of the day - especially around dusk when hundreds of people gather to watch the sun setting above the Aegean Sea.
Strolling around the village allows you to discover several little cafes, shops, and restaurants.

Built on one of the caldera’s highest points and overlooking the Aegean Sea, the village of Imerovigli in Santorini guarantees breathtaking views of the volcanic landscape.

BEACH HOTELS

Staying at a seafront location is highly recommended to easily access the beach any time of your vacation in Santorini.
The volcanic beaches are one of a kind, and finding beach hotels near one of them is totally worth it!

Hotels in Kamari

At the seafront village of Kamari, you will find one of the most beautiful beaches of Santorini.
The grey-sand beach of Kamari boasts both organized and non-organized sections, offering all types of tourist facilities within a short walking distance from the seashore, including bars, cafes, and restaurants.
The village is full of shops and other kinds of facilities without being overcrowded, which makes it a great place for your hotel.
Several options can be found in the area or just a few meters away from the shore, in a wonderful setting that will allow you to spend your days relaxing on the beach.
Kamari is great for travelers who would rather avoid the bustling villages on the caldera.

Hotels in Perissa

The small settlement known as Perissa is situated right by one of Santorini’s most popular beaches.
Volcanic sand covers the seemingly endless seashore of Perissa beach. The sea has clear blue waters, and the beach is fully organized, with sunbeds and umbrellas you can rent.
Several restaurants, taverns, cafes, and bars lie along the coastline, only a few steps away from the sea.
Perissa is the perfect location for your hotel if you seek easy access to the beach during your stay.

By choosing Perivolos, you will have the chance to stay near one of the longest and loveliest beaches.
The beach of Perivolos is famous for its black sand - a result of the island’s volcanic background.
Numerous beach hotels are available along the coast. The beach is organized for the most part, with sun umbrellas and sun loungers to rent.
Restaurants, taverns, bars, and water sports facilities with a friendly atmosphere, as well as resorts, including rooms and studios among others, lie in the area.

HOTELS IN SANTORINI BY CATEGORY

An increasing number of hotels in Santorini have been emerging on one of the world’s most famous calderas. Several types are currently available in Santorini, especially for those who appreciate the traditional Cycladic design.
You will discover various kinds of hotels and accommodations in Santorini, for different budgets, with modern facilities and, in many cases, luxurious features.

LUXURY HOTELS

Santorini has become synonymous with luxury hotels. The island radiates a very romantic atmosphere and the vast majority of units pursue offering opulent stays and 5-star services. Some of them also provide spa services.
This is one of the reasons why honeymooners choose it as their destination. Even if you are not that type of traveler, spending some extra money is strongly recommended when visiting Santorini. Pampering yourself with infinite sea views in a comfortable and relaxing environment is the best way to experience this one-of-a-kind volcanic island.
Most of the luxury hotels in Santorini are located in the villages across the caldera (Oia, Imerovigli, and Firostefani) and are mainly small boutique hotels with no more than ten suites. Most of the suites boast terraces with splendid views of the Aegean sea and the volcano, as well as private pools, jetted tubs, or jacuzzis.
An estimated price range for a luxury room starts from €400 and can reach a few thousand euros per day. It depends on the location, views, services, and private amenities such as swimming pools and jetted tubs.

Best luxury hotels:
Grace, Chromata and Cavo Tagoo in Imerovigli, and Canaves Oia in Oia

AFFORDABLE LUXURY

Affordable luxury options lie both in the caldera villages (Oia, Fira, Imerovigli, and Firostefani) and the settlements close to the beach.
Sometimes luxury options in Santorini offer some of their rooms at more approachable prices. The reason for that usually falls under categories of size (may be smaller than the other rooms), more simple and minimal amenities, or even because of a less privileged sea view.
Also, there are options that focus exclusively on travelers wanting to experience a luxury lifestyle but at a more reasonable price. Those Santorini hotels have almost the same characteristics as luxury units, with small details on private amenities, interior design, location, and services that slightly lower the price.
An estimated price range is €220- €350/night. Lastly, another factor that might affect pricing is the season.
Note that accommodation during lower seasons, such as spring and autumn, is cheaper than during the summer.

Best Affordable luxury hotels:
Ilioperato, Xenones Filotera in Imerovigli and Agali House in Firostefani

HONEYMOON SUITES

With its spectacular sunsets and picturesque landscape, Santorini is one of the top romantic destinations in Greece, ideal for romantic getaways, honeymoons, anniversaries, and engagements!
Most hotels in Santorini offer honeymoon suites specially designed for couples, with the best ones located in Imerovigli and Oia. Such ones combine great caldera views with excellent facilities, including private infinity pools, hot tubs, fine dining restaurants for candlelit dinners, and other features in the perfect setting. Many options also offer cave suites with a warm and minimal design for a unique experience.
The majority of the suites are luxurious, although booking soon enough increases the chances of finding more affordable options. Early booking is a necessity, especially for honeymoons. If you are traveling during the high season, keep in mind that due to the huge demand, you should book around nine months in advance in order to reserve your dream house in time. Last but not least, don’t forget to inform the hotel you will be visiting on your honeymoon so they can take extra care of you!

Best honeymoon suites:
Grace and Cavo Tagoo in Imerovigli and Katikies and Canaves Oia Suites in Oia

VALUE FOR MONEY

Santorini has several options that, even though they may not be in the lavish spectrum, also avoid being categorized as budget options. The aspect that mostly defines this category is that they lack the volcano and sea view or the 5-star services and top-notch private amenities.
A few of them are located on the caldera but do not possess the undisturbed sea views of others. The vast majority of value-for-money hotels in Santorini lie away from the tourist crowds, in places like Pyrgos and Megalochori, or closer to the beaches of Kamari and Perissa. Their location is the key factor that has kept their pricing at moderate levels. They are in excellent condition, featuring lovely, comfortable rooms and ample outdoor spaces with a shared swimming pool. The setting is that of a cozy, more casual hotel of most Greek islands.
The price range is approximately €120 - €220/night.

Best value for money hotels:
Casa Florina and Meli Meli in Imerovigli, Aqua Blue in Perissa, and Dream Island in Fira

VILLAS

There are numerous villas built on Santorini, in many locations. Some are parts of an upscale complex, while others are individual buildings.
In terms of price, although it might cost more than a room or suite for two, it is reasonable when you are traveling and splitting the expenses with more than four people in a group arrangement.
Villas can usually accommodate a minimum of four individuals. Most of them consist of many comfortable bedrooms, a sitting room often separated from the dining room, a roomy kitchen, a swimming pool, and a terrace. Occasionally they may feature a serene garden and parking space.
Depending on the location, they can also be graced with beautiful sea views. Lastly, due to their considerable size, they are regarded as the fitting holiday option for travelers who want to spend time relaxing at home.

DESIGN-FOCUSED

If you are a design enthusiast, thrilled for places with a particular style to host your vacation, this island should have a place on your bucket list!
You will encounter some of the finest examples of Cycladic architecture blending harmoniously with the island's volcanic origins and the Aegean sea that surrounds it. The cubic-shaped whitewashed houses and the cave houses crafted in the cliffs place Santorini’s villages among the most interesting architectural regions in Europe.
The Cycladic building principles dictate white and simple lines, while strict laws preserve its traditional architecture and heritage.
On this island, you can admire minimalism at its finest. Discrete modern touches from prestigious and acclaimed interior designers and architects underline the uniqueness of a setting and turn it into a masterpiece.
Most of the hotels in Santorini adhere to the Cycladic architecture principles. Some comprise old structures that got restored and repurposed into luxury lodgings, while others were built from scratch.

Best design hotels:
Kamini in Pyrgos, Villa 520 in Oia, Tholos Resort in Imerovigli, and Anemolia in Megalochori

HOTELS WITH INFINITY POOLS

Infinity pools are considered the modern signature structures of Santorini. They are mainly located in the caldera settlements - Oia, Imerovigli, and Fira.
Their characteristic is that they create the illusion that they are on the same level as the sea. This optical trick derives from their architecture and placement at the edge of the cliff overlooking the Aegean sea. They are very photogenic and create a peaceful atmosphere.
Some have larger pools or more appealing views than others.
It is strongly recommended to book a hotel with an infinity pool since Santorini is primarily known for its enchanting sea views.
Hardly anything outshines the feeling of serenity and freedom created by swimming in a private balcony-shaped pool and savoring a fine wine while the phenomenal sunset takes place in front of you like a live work of art.

Best hotels with infinity pools:
Grace in Imerovigli, Homeric poems in Firostefani and, Cosmopolitan suites in Fira

HOTELS WITH PRIVATE POOLS

Known as one of the top luxury destinations in Greece, the island is full of hotels that offer excellent facilities for the best experience! One of the signature features is the pools, which come in different shapes and sizes and may be shared or, in many cases, private. The most popular pool styles include infinity pools that seem to merge into the sea for a view with no boundaries and cave pools with a design inspired by cave house architecture and the volcanic landscape, as well as outdoor hot tubs that overlook the sea.

Best hotels for private pools:
Cavo Tagoo and Divine Cave Experience in Imerovigli, Andronis Boutique and Canaves Oia suites in Oia

HOTELS WITH CAVE POOLS

In the last few years, this novelty has bloomed and continues to attract thousands of travelers every summer; and justifiably so.
That new design trend on Santorini is a favorite among honeymooners, travel bloggers, and Instagrammers, known as cave pools.
Those pools are mostly located in villages such as Oia, Imerovigli, and Fira. One part is crafted on the cliff, creating an atmosphere of a cave-built-in pool, while the other is outdoors overlooking the famous caldera.
It is a very photogenic and aesthetically satisfying structure, adding a refreshing and unique feature.

Best hotels for cave pools:
Pegasus in Imerovigli and, Sun Rocks and Dana in Firostefani

FAMILY HOTELS

Although Santorini is not considered a family destination, that has not prevented many couples from visiting with their kids and experiencing this volcanic island rich in history and sea activities.
Most hotels in Santorini are specially designed for couples and honeymooners, while some strictly accept only adults. In the most romantic parts like Oia and Imerovigli, the number of places open to accommodating families is limited. So, if you want to travel with your family and stay at a hotel with a world-famous caldera and sunset view, it is strongly advised to book early in advance.
More family hotels are available away from the caldera part and closer to the beach and the eastern part of Santorini. Rooms are more spacious and outdoor spaces with big swimming pools are part of the premises.
Furthermore, the beach is nearby and is the perfect playground for children.
Lastly, a widespread option for holidays with the kids on Santorini is renting a villa. It provides privacy and a comfortable home to share quality and fun times with your loved ones.

Best family hotels:
Santo Miramare in Perivolos and Bellonias in Kamari

BUDGET HOTELS

Although Santorini is not considered a cheap destination compared to other islands, it offers some budget hotels too. You will need to compromise regarding the location and sea views, but you will find lovely neat rooms for your stay.
The interior decoration may be a bit oldy, but if you only want a nice room to sleep in and spend more time outdoors exploring the island instead, an average budget hotel can perfectly meet your needs.
The price ranges from €70 - €120/night.
Most budget hotels in Santorini are located in Karterados, Perissa and around Fira.

Best budget hotels:
Costa Marina Villas in Fira and Anna in Kamari

• Will I find last-minute offers?

It is highly unlikely to find last-minute availabilities during the high season.

• How many days should I book?

It is not a huge island and things to do are specific. Also, there are not many beaches to spend your day by the sea. Three to four days are considered a good amount of time to spend in Santorini.

• What types of lodgings are available?

It mainly boasts small luxury & boutique hotels, villas, and suites. There are also some rooms to let and BnB on the island, which are considered a relatively cheaper option.

• Is accommodation expensive?

Yes. Santorini pursues a luxury lifestyle; consequently, accommodation is expensive. Nevertheless, except for the popular luxury options, there are some budget facilities, affordable luxury, and value-for-money options too.

• Where are the most luxurious options located?

The villages perched on the caldera (Oia, Imerovigli, Fira, Firostefani) are mainly where the luxury options are located. The parts with better sea and volcano views in these villages are the most privileged locations and where some of the most expensive ones are found.

• How much does it cost?

That depends on the type and location. Luxury accommodation and villas can cost from 500-1000 euros/per night during the high season, especially the ones that offer private pools or a plunge pool on a private terrace. Budget options cost 70-120 euros/night, while affordable luxury options are around 300 euros/night.

• Which is the best location if you are traveling on a budget?

You can find cheap options if you compromise with the location and the sea view. The villages of Karterados and Perissa are where most budget lodgings are found.

• Is it a family/kids-friendly destination?

It is mostly a honeymoon/couples-oriented destination. Many lodging options are adult-only, so many room types are frequently only for two persons. But this has not prevented many families from paying a visit to the marvelous island.

• Which is the best location for easy and quick access to the beach?

The beaches are natural and raw, adorned with black or red lava sand. They are not considered the most popular of the Greek islands but are clean and worth visiting. The beach and the village of Perissa and Kamari are two very good options if you want to seek a location by the beach.
