Expensive hotels in Santorini

0ool area was devine in the sun and at night with a glass of red wine I imagine night swim in warmer times

A hidden gem! Late booking for a night in Santorini before flying home and it was a great find. Quiet area in Kamari with supermarket and Captain’s Corner restaurant (fantastic) nearby. Great welcome at Chez Sophie and everyone without exception was friendly and keen to make sure we had a great stay. Room was well equipped, comfy beds, lovely pool, everywhere is spotlessly clean, super breakfast and...

The hotel was a wonderful stay! The location is perfect – just a two-minute walk from the beach and very close to restaurants and shops, yet quiet and relaxed. Our room was comfortable and had everything we needed. We also enjoyed the small pool area with sunbeds and chairs. The staff were kind and welcoming, and helped us with whatever we needed. Two small downsides for us were the thin blankets,...

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Chez Sophie a week or so ago. Fabulous hotel, the location was perfect and it was such a comfortable place to stay. Kamari is lovely and the people are so welcoming. The staff were all so helpful and friendly and you could really appreciate that it's a family run hotel. We were very well looked after by everyone and looking forward to visiting again. Tina, George...

Superb hotel in the heart of Kamari. Close to the beautiful beaches, lovely tavernas and local shops. Staff were extremely helpful, kind, welcoming and friendly, always on hand to help book trips and give advice. We highly recommend Chez Sophie for anyone travelling to Santorini 5 🌟

We stayed at the hotel with our four children and were amazed with the incredible hospitality, great communication, attention to detail, and wonderful location near the beach. We were able to walk to the beach in less than 5 minutes and loved exploring Ancient Thira (nearby). Nikos was very thoughtful, patient, and so helpful with all of our questions and requests throughout our stay. The pool is amazing...

We would stay at this resort again and again no matter the cost! This resort was close to the airport, so easy to get. Upon arriving, we were by Joanna whom was probably the greatest host I've ever interacted with in my entire life. She is so sweet, so informative and was sure to make sure that we enjoyed our time on the island. Any and every question I had she was there to answer almost immediately...

The coolest hotel I ever stayed in. We had the honeymoon cavalieri suite and it was unbelievable. We had our own heated infinity pool that overlooked the caldera and the views were spectacular. The room was nice, good king bed, plenty of space, functional AC. The food was exceptional. Every single thing we ordered was great. We had a little table next to the pool and enjoyed meals overlooking the caldera...

From the moment we arrived (at 1 a.m.!) Johanna greeted us with a huge smile and made us feel instantly welcome. She went above and beyond—helped us plan our itinerary, and even let us check out late on our last day free of charge. Every staff member we met was kind and genuine, and the hotel’s wine tasting was an absolute highlight. Breakfast each morning was outstanding, and the rooms, Wi-Fi, and...

We had a 2 night stay in the Cavalierus Honeymoon Villa. This villa was amazing, the terrace and the pool was huge, way bigger than anywhere else we stayed in Santorini. The privacy from this villa was superb and the sunset view was phenomenal. But what really made our stay was the hotel manager Joanna, she made us feel like we had known her forever. She was so polite and friendly and went above...

A magical place with breathtaking sea views, the perfect spot to admire the sunset. The hotel itself is beautiful and truly incredible. The staff are extremely kind and always helpful. Highly recommended!

We have chosen the celebrate our honeymoon at the white pearl cavalieri and it was the best decision to secure a lovely and most splendid vacation possible. We stayed for 4 nights, and every day was super. The crew is very welcoming and service is beyond premium level. Joanna (Guest manager) is one of the most welcoming and nicest you can ever imagine, she will take care of your stay with great...

On arrival we were met by friendly helpful staff and were made very welcome. Our luggage was taken down the hill to the hotel for us by the porter 👍 Cold guest towels were provided and a chilled glass of sparkling wine on check in ( great start ) When we got to our suite ( Avaton suite ) there was a complimentary bottle of Prosecco, chocolates and a basket of fresh fruit ( nice touch ) The warm...

We had such a good week at Avaton. The staff were so helpful - thankyou so much Efthimis Eleftheria and Bilal for helping us have a fabulous holiday - from your recommendations, arranging boat trips, car hire etc and not forgetting the wonderful breakfast brought to our room every morning. The hotel is in a lovely quiet location with very easy access onto the caldera coastal path to walk to Fira (...

No need to go to Oia for sunset! Staff was very attentive and courteous.

Our 5 night stay at The Avaton was wonderful! The staff did everything they could to make it as amazing as possible for us from the moment we arrived. We had an upgraded room and excellent service throughout our stay. They organised restaurant bookings for us and the couples massage was the best treatment we have ever had! Convenient location for strolling into Fira of an evening, when it was cooler...

Lovely peaceful hotel with the most stunning views. Staff were delightful, especially Eleftheria!

I highly recommend staying at Avaton. First the location is excellent, the hotel is right on the rim of the Caldera with the best views. We actually chose to watch the sunsets from the balcony of our Avaton instead of the famed Oia. The location is also close to some very good restaurants, but also away from the hoards of cruise tourists. Next the service at the hotel is outstanding. They arranged...

Staff are polite and respectful. The location of this resort is beautiful. Mesmerizing sunset! Calm and peaceful environment. Really enjoyed it.

Quiet hotel with very clean rooms and friendly staff. Breakfast is a set menu, not suitable for diabetics, and the blanket was uncomfortable. Overall, a pleasant stay in a peaceful location.

The property had everything we wanted. It was tucked away but you can get to the action on a short walk

Romantic Getaway Loved the resort, especially the peace and quiet being an adult only hotel. The walk up to Oia is a bit of a workout, but we didn’t mind. We walked it up and back at least twice a day to get to restaurants, shopping and to see the beautiful sunsets.

The staff were really friendly and helpful especially George on the front desk. They took care of all our needs and allowed us to have a fully relaxing holiday!

Absolutely fantastic accommodation, one of the best I have ever stayed in. Staff helpful and friendly.

Was even better in person than we could have imagined! The highlight was how attentive the staff was, especially Maria! She is an absolute gem of a human and took care of all of our needs. She gave suggestions for things to do and places to visit and was able to book everything for us. True luxury! The food was also amazing and the room was spotless. Can’t wait to return!

Fantastic little gem. Fabulous staff, excellent service and meals and a very private suite with my own pool with breathtaking views. Perfect location for those who seek privacy away from the crowds. There’s a road but it’s not very busy so didn’t bother me. Get a rental car though to explore the island. I’ll happily return here. It hit the spot. Thanks for everything.

Wow, what a place! Built on the highest elevation in Santorini, offers beautiful, majestic vistas of most of the island, tranquility, privacy and relaxation. The wonderful staff (Maria, Vaggelis, Chrisa and Andreas) as well as the owners (Stephanos and Michelle) made sure that we (I and my wife) had the best experience from our stay in Santorini. Vaggelis cooked to order delicious breakfasts (free...

This property is so serene and the manager went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our trip was taken care of. Since this property is away from the main town transportation was always easy to arrange and when we can back to our place it felt like we are retreating back into our sanctuary. Our private plunge pool and our spectacular views were in matched.

The whole Team are very friendly and helped us by finding the right places and beaches to visit.

Santorini Heights provides stunning views, quality accommodation and excellent service. We felt truly spoilt from the moment we arrived. Maria took care of our car hire from the ferry she provided recommendations for a sunset cruise which she sorted for us and even found a place for us to visit to watch the Europa Cup !!! She could not have done more. On our final day we were given the use of a...

Yes room was cleaned every day The staff were excellent well looked after The breakfast was amazing over looking the sea it was a continental one

Brilliant stay - we enjoyed it greatly. Breakfast could use a bit of variety but it is served in such magnificent setting that it’s easily overlooked. Highly recommended

This hotel was a very clean and beautiful hotel to stay in Santorini. The location directly opposite the Caldera was breathtaking 😍 Waking up to a delicious breakfast delivered to our balcony every morning was a wonderful way to start our day. The sunsets were spectacular and all the staff were so lovely and accommodating. The hotel was very close to Fira town with many restaurants., bars and cafes...

Room patio overlooked the caldera, staff was great and very helpful breakfast was cooked to order and served on the patio

Excellent customer service, hotel manager made sure everything was perfect for us. Helped with booking taxi and food and everything else we needed. Would definitely stay here again.

Bathroom was huge and impressive. Room was nice and decent but only disappointment was the hotel had many honeymoon suites and assigned me with the room which did not have a sunset view. Even upon requesting for a better room, they declined saying rooms are full but online I could still see there was honeymoon suites available for booking. My advise is to check and get pictures from this hotel to confirm...

Lovely beautiful care we received from Irene and some amazing views of the sea rooms are lovely glazed stone and have pretty lights inside. Great location would highly recommend 👌 :)

We stayed in the 2 bedroom house, and it was pretty good. It had a large living area and the 2 bedrooms were also spacious. There was only a microwave, sandwich press and kettle and not many utensils or cutlery. There was a full fridge. Bathroom was good and roomy. The host was very friendly. Chairs for the table were broken and some things were a little dated. But it was good for 3 nights. Good location...

This was a last minute booking after our previous stay didn’t work out! We needed a room and booked late, however, the staff at Hotel Hellas was incredibly understanding and even stayed there late in order to accommodate our check in. The room fit 3 comfortably and was exactly what we needed. Great stay with amazing service.

Don't believe any bad reviews about this place. We were like many others relocated here after booking with ag suites. I'm glad we were. This is a beautiful little hotel. Bit old style, but really clean and comfortable and the pool is lovely!

The owners were lovely, our room was very clean and it was in a great location. The owners went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. There are nice restaurants close by and it's close to lots of the main attractions in Fira. We really enjoyed our stay.

We had a great stay in Hotel Hellas. The room was very clean. They gave us extra pillows when we asked for comfort. They upgraded our room. We had a really nice balcony and nice view. They had a nice pool. The owners were lovely and couldn’t do enough for us.

nice small hotel in a quiet and safe environment

The stay was absolutely exceptional, far surpassing all expectations. The family’s service goes well beyond ordinary hospitality, making you feel truly cared for. Thira’s Dolphin offers breathtaking views of an ancient fortress, the sea, and the caldera, creating the perfect setting to unwind. Within walking distance, you’ll find beautiful beaches and a charming town center with fantastic restaurants...

Perfect Lovely quiet location, Akrotiri is a fantastic place to stay! Hotel is family owned and run! Nothing is too much trouble for them We loved every moment of our stay, and hope to return soon!

Great location in Akrotiri, this property is equipped with a swimming pool. The room was very spacious and clean with a nice terrace overlooking the Caldera. The staff is super and very helpful to suggest the best option to enjoy the Island.

Perfect location for what we'd planned, seeing the island by car - ample free parking. We were received very warmly, well looked after, and the facilities were excellent.

Best holiday ever, enjoyed the Villa and Pool. Can't wait to go back. Very relaxing, sunny weather. Service with a smile. Beds were so comfortable and clean. Worth every penny, would have happily paid more to stay here. Villa was spotless. See you soon.

The resort is well maintained and absolutely stunning. Stelios, the property manager, was extremely welcoming and helpful. He was available 24/7 via WhatsApp and in person for any questions or assistance. He gave us great recommendations for sightseeing and made us feel like home. Stelios is definitely the best host ever. The property is located 15-25 minutes to all major attractions and with easy...

Villa was amazing. Great condition. And special note for Stelios. Great person. Super helpful with everything. Always a available! Fantastic!!

Great place to stay fab location looking over the ocean and islands clean everything we needed and more beautiful private pool with our villa the staff were absolutely brilliant especially stallios nothing was too much trouble breakfast fab and brought to us every day 😀 😊 😄 😍

We actually ended up in this place when a booking in Kamari fell through because of a computer glitch but we had a very nice experience here. As noted in other reviews, it's not in the middle of major tourist hubs though that has advantages. It's quiet and private and a nice break from the louder beach scene into the night. Stelios (the manager) is so good-natured and helpful and made several good...

A great little oasis away from the busy- ness of Fira! A 20 minute walk to Fira but we ended up asking the manager Stelios to book us a car rental. He was so informative and helpful to all of us. Would stay again!

Stayed here for 3 nights in October — room was big, clean, and the sunset view was amazing! Lots of good restaurants around, and Fira is only a 10-min walk. If you’ve got big luggage, better get a porter.

Very nice hotel, big room, very nice people 💙 and incredible view. The breakfast on the terrasse with this view is amazing! I definitely recommend it. Add blue touches to the room and everything's perfect 🙂 Mind the steps through, I don't recommend it to elderly people.

Room with a view! Good breakfast for extra fee, delivered to the outdoor table by the room door. Dining in front of the caldera view is just priceless 😍 Room was just alright, nothing to complain. Good air conditioning. Lot's of restaurants nearby. Nice and friendly staff. Thank you!

They welcomed us with drinks, and the manager at the reception was very accommodating. She explained everything about the island, offered us tours to the caldera, and even gave tips on places to visit by car along with other attractions around the island. Also they have the best view of sunset and the caldera.

We stayed 4 nights at Manos Small World in August 2025 and had an amazing experience. Having stayed in Oia in 2023, this time I wanted to be in the other main area of Santorini — and this hotel was the perfect choice. The views are incredible. Every room looks directly over the Caldera with unobstructed sunset and sunrise views. Each morning we woke up to the entire water spread out before us, even...

I stayed here with my daughters, and the view was absolutely stunning — we were in awe the moment we arrived. Due to the terrain, there are some steep stairs, but Louis kindly carried all of our luggage, so it wasn’t a problem at all. Renalda at the reception was so friendly and attentive, checking in to make sure everything was comfortable during our stay. Thank you, Renalda and Louis!

We absolutely loved our stay here. It felt safe and quiet and was a neat hideaway. Took some time to get use to walking to it and getting around but our host was great and very responsive.

It was a wonderful place and a very valuable experience.

Super nice place. Very good service. They can help you arrange taxi etc.

We had a great stay in the white cave villas and the staff were very helpful and pleasant and made me a lovely surprise for my birthday, decorating the room with balloons, a nice touch. Jonmel helped us with carrying our bags from and to the car park as Finikia is a lovely and authentic Greek village, 10 minutes from Oia and has no car access. We loved our stay.

Such a beautiful place with amazing staff, willing to accommodate whatever you require. They are uber friendly, courteous and professional. The rooms are large and fully equipped with everything you need and all a short walk to the Oia sights

Loved our stay! The host was very nice and helped us with our luggage and settled us in. They even provide a shuttle service from the airport and to the ferry for a cost but it was better then getting a taxi. The room was spacious and clean. We had issues with the door but that was quickly resolved. The breakfast was so good and quick! Defs recommend!

Host Kostas’ attention to details was excellent from pre and during the visit. Room was clean and comfortable. Restaurant recommendations were great. Location was convenient for some key scenic points. I would happily recommend staying at this place.

The rooftop jacuzzi had wonderful views!! The staff was vert accommodating and lovely. A gem of a place.

Room was very clean and the host was lovely and extremely helpful. Also could not beat the location

The stay was great, the owner provided a list of food/bar suggestions. The house keeper was also very friendly and helped show us our room and amenities

The boss is very nice. The location and environment of the house are very good. It's only a dozen meters walk to the tourist street.

This hotel is in a good location and closes to the public bus stop. Also, it can easily get to shops and restaurants. Facilities are good. Staff are very friendly.

Understand that this hotel has an awesome view to the east sea, not towards Caldera. Also, its in an island area where you can walk to nothing. Its not near the main areas of the island with bars, restaurants, etc. If you understand this, its fine. Also, many rooms have a loft bed meaning a staircase up so to use the restroom its down and then back up.

We cannot fault this hotel, the staff are outstanding cannot do enough for you, from arrival Jesse, and Andreas welcoming us to Asad serving our beautiful breakfast each morning with a smile. It’s the best breakfast we have ever had and we have travelled a lot over the years. Ezmarela was our housemaid for our room always smiling and extremely helpful the best cleaner we have ever had going the extra...

Great staff. We really enjoyed our stay at the property.

Very kind ja friendly staff. Peaceful and beautiful place. Will definetly visit the place again. It was perfect way to start a day watching a sunrise at your balcony and have a breakfast there. We spend our honeymoon there. 11 days. ❤️

very clean rooms, we had a private pool in our backyard. the staff was very friendly and accommodating. great location, easy to drive to the main spots on the island. very family friendly.

Overall, it wasn't bad, but the room requires more thorough cleaning. The internet was weak, and the hotel isn't in Imerovigli, but nearby.

The concierge service was excellent. The property manager was communicative, helpful, friendly and was excellent at finding resources available for our family.

The staff at Archipel Mansion went above and beyond to make our trip memorable. Constantinos handled all the van arrangements to and from restaurants, towns, and dinner. He made himself available to us for the entire stay to help arrange cars and tours. It truly made the trip much more incredible to have him assist. Being familiar with our mobility and accessibility needs, he communicated to all the...

beautiful views, super accommodating staff and the breakfast was delicious.

Great place! Very friendly staff! Panos and Maria were always available. Very good communication via WhatsApp! Will definitely come back!

Very nice accommodation in Imerovigli. We stayed there for a few days and the experience was mesmerising. Rooms are very comfortable and stylish and also includes jacuzzi. Breakfast was also quite good Its very close from the centre and there is super market and gas station nearby We met the owner (Charalambos) and was very friendly and polite and he gave us important information about the island and...

I stayed there for two nights in August. I really liked the location, I had everything available. Excellent location, panoramic view of the sea with the possibility of seeing the sunrise. I'd go back. Very friendly staff.

We spent 5 wonderful nights at Athiri and had an amazing experience. Every morning started with a rich and tasty breakfast, and the daily cleaning — including fresh towels and bathroom essentials — made everything feel fresh and comfortable. The outdoor jacuzzi was a lovely bonus, perfect for relaxing, while the private terrace offered beautiful views: we got to enjoy both sunrise and sunset from...

Exceptional Hospitality & Perfect Family Stay Our family of five stayed at Athiri Santorini Family Friendly Hotel and had an amazing experience. Harry and Panos were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to fix a reservation issue, treating us like family from the start. The room setup was perfect—two bedrooms, a kids’ room with toys and bunk beds, a deck with a jacuzzi, and a fully equipped...

The service shined here. Lefty took amazing care of us despite some hiccups (broken showerhead and cold spa). He made sure we were happy every step of the way and the personalized breakfast is a great touch. I'd recommend renting a car with the location but you can't beat the size of the units for the price. A perfect place to bring your kids on a not very kid friendly island.

The place was very nice and spacious. The hot tub outside was nice too but there is a restaurant right out front, not much privacy, this was not shown at all in the advertisement of the place. The shower water was also not running smoothly, so you would be showering in a pool of water.

Ok experience, warm bedroom caused by hot pool inside. Could be everyday housekeeping, not every second.

We have just returned from a spectacular weeks holiday in Callia Caves during the first week of November 2023. We stayed in the smaller of the 2 Caves suites(both suites are next to each other) for 7 nights. The apartment is perfect for a couple and well laid out, the balcony and outdoor hot tub are perfect for those sunset moments. The location is perfect for all touring of the island and has easy...

Beautiful apartment with all the comfort. All the rooms are very spacious and equipped, very complete toiletries and good linens. It has a big hot tub in one bedroom and a balcony with a beautiful sea view in the other bedroom. Even the interior design and furnishing are really nice, comfortable and beautiful. Our apartment is perfectly suitable for four people. It has a nice patio with a table and...

Matthia was outstanding! She greeted us and talked to us about everything Santorini and kept in contact throughout. The unit is great for a couple and very Santorini! Great courtyard and even better the balcony through the windows from the bedroom. Views, well simply stunning! Italian restaurant across from the unit was amazing so pls go here one of the nights as sunsets and food, service awesome and...

Such a lovely time at Callia. Beautiful, spacious suites with plunge pools and very close walking distance to Fira. Breakfast very good! Christos was an amazing host and treated us like family. We would certainly recommend staying here to anyone wanting to stay in a less hectic area of Fira but close enough to enjoy all that Santorini has to offer.

This was one of our best vacations by far. This was all about the people that made our stay awesome. Thank you!

Amazing hotel and staff Room was spotless, pool was so clean and the overall hotel was lovely. The best bit, the staff. So friendly and could not do enough. We will be back one day.

Pool area was fantastic and the staff could not of been more gracious. The entire hotel inside and out was extremely clean. Would come back to this hotel.

Beautiful hotel in a lovely location. Fantastic views. Super comfortable bed. Everything was spot on and staff super friendly and helpful. Excellent receptionist- professional and going extra mile to ensure we enjoyed and make the most of our stay. Would highly recommend Acroterra Rosa. We didn't want to leave.

Staff very attentive, quiet location, nice pool, ideal if you want total relax for a few days.

This is truly a 5 star hotel. The staff was professional, friendly, attentive and helpful. The room was clean, and the bed comfortable. Good and quiet air con. Quiet environment all around. The view was amazing. We didn't use the pool, but it looked nice and clean as well. We had a jacuzzi on our balcony, which was warm and clean with strong jets. Breakfast was very good, and there was oat milk available...

We stayed here on our honeymoon. There happened to be a staff member who spoke Japanese, and he was very helpful! The place was generally clean, but some small areas (such as the edges) were not properly cleaned, and there was a lot of dust, which bothered me a bit. Also, on our last day, we had an early flight and missed breakfast, so we ordered room service, but it was terrible. The breakfast buffet...

Hotel and location is excellent the views are absolutely stunning breakfast is good, some days the service was a bit slow, however would Absolutely recommend and definitely would come back

This cute Greek villa has a pool and a jacuzzi on the balcony, so you can relax in a private, clean, and relaxing atmosphere. The sunsets from the restaurant are amazing, and I highly recommend it. They even delivered freshly baked sweets and lavender sachets to us. It was my first time in Santorini, and I'm so glad I stayed there.

The room was amazing, the service was prompt and attentive, the view of the ocean and sunset was perfect, the large, comfortable bed was perfect for a good night's sleep, and the pool was truly amazing...everything was fantastic! I'd definitely come back for more!

The hotel staff is very friendly and polite! There is a small path leading to Oia from the hotel, which is about a 10-minute walk. The only drawback is that if you have just got off the plane with a lot of luggage and choose to take the local public bus to the hotel, it will be inconvenient because you have to walk a long slope or stairs beside the road after getting off the bus.

Very nice hotel, the food is also great! The family enjoyed their vacation very much

Lovely place and leitica from the front desk was extremely friendly. Totally enjoyed our stay here!

Upon our arrival, we were given a very welcome upgrade. Very nice room; bus stop a few meters away. Average breakfast. It's a shame the pool is difficult to use due to the strong winds.

Very nice, but our room lacked blackout curtains, and in the morning we were woken up by the light coming in! The reception staff were very friendly!

Unbelievable place! Everything was so easy and Pleasant. The staff were Amazing and value for money was exceptional. They organised everything including moped rental and the food was Amazing!!!!

Nice hotel with excellent views, bar music outdoor pool was great, only the spa facilities were not available 

Perfect hotel for a comfortable stay. I like the view and the room.
