Santorini Hotels

The picturesque island of Santorini is a travellers paradise. Stunning sea views, dark volcanic sands and hotels built into the cliff side are just some of the Instagram-worthy sights you will find here.

Signature white-washed buildings, cobbled streets and blue-domed churches line this picture-perfect, cliff-side town. Team this with long hot summers, superb cuisine and not forgetting the fine wine of the region, and it’s no wonder travel-hungry holiday-makers flock to its shore year after year.

Beaches

Heavily influenced by the volcanic landscape, Santorini beaches are often black sand beaches or small red and black pebble beaches with crystal-clear waters. Kamari and Perissa Beaches offer a lively atmosphere with plenty of beachside bars and dining options available along the shoreline. For a truly unique experience, a visit to Red Beach is a must. Aptly names after its copper-toned sands this rustic beach is set in front of a stunning mountain backdrop with little else around.

Culture

Emblematic of Greece, Santorini’s Cycladic architecture with its blue domed churches has become synonymous with the island. For a taste of the true Santorini head to one of the five ancient castles or wander around the many churches and religious monuments the island has to offer.

Food & Drink

The cuisine in Santorini is unlike any other Greek island. Traditional Greek dishes are readily available but there is also a large number of signature dishes originating from this small island. We recommend trying the Santorini classic, Sfoungato – a variation on an omelette with courgette, tomato and potato. Fresh seafood is also very popular here, along with locally produced cheeses and a variety of sweet treats. As for drinks, Santorini produces some of the region’s best wine. A trip to a vineyard is always a great way to see this.

Nightlife

The capital of Santorini, Fira, boasts a lively nightlife with plenty of bars and clubs to keep you going all night. Coastal resorts such as Kamari and Perissa offer a blend of chic beachfront bars and lively atmospheric bars while Oia is the perfect place for a romantic getaway.
