Hotels with beach in Santorini

The private pool imho is overated in general, when you have a beach and water line 10 meters from the door you dont really need it, in addition to 5 pools around the hotel

Staff were amazing on reception and concierge - special mention to Georgia (I think her name was) who help make our short stay very memorable with her sage advice on how to fill our time. Would stay again.

Only good feedback, one of the rare places, you feel must come back there. Beach is little challenging for swimming, but still great experience

Breakfast was great - Michelle (or Melissa) was a star; she brought my partner honey ginger and lemon every morning to help with her sore throat. We had a great sea and beach view from our room

We really liked the hotel and our sea view room. A wonderful complex with swimming pools, a great breakfast and friendly staff. We were very happy to stay here! I recommend it!

We were staying for a friends wedding (around 50 guests), and the hotel accommodated us all very well and it was spaced out and easy to meet up without feeling overcrowded

The rooms are lovely and clean, slightly small with 2 large suitcases in there but manageable for a week! Its a short minute walk to the beach and beach front bars / strip

Superb vacation Wonderful view upon awakening and walking out on to the balcony the view is fabulous The room fresh clean and spacious The staff so friendly and polite and welcoming The only small downside for me is the breakfast not a great deal i would eat and some of the choices of items for breakfast is a bit bizarre like cheese pie 😅 Anyways amazing hotel

Excellent customer service from all staff. Cleanliness outstanding. Deluxe room stunning. Breakfast selection comprehensive and high quality. Relentless canned music in breakfast and pool areas annoying.

The rooms were in need of some TLC and lacked some basic necessities you’d expect from a beachside hotel with pool facilities—such as a clothes dryer on the balcony

Great location with private steps right down on the beach. One of the reasons we chose this hotel was for the complimentary sunbeds on the beach. Unfortunately the staff does not hold these for the guests

Also there are signs not to reserve beds, but people do, and the staff does not remove towels even after 2 hours of no shows. Even if the beach is full and people are getting frustrated

The hotel is very convenient and walkable to the black sand beach and many stores and dining options, love the location. Staff friendly and helpful... transportation thru hotel is very costly but dependable.

The staff at the property absolutely go above and beyond and truly make it feel like a home away from home. The rooms where super clean and love that staff was always willing to help

We absolutely loved our stay at the Radisson Blu Zaffron Resort in Kamari! The resort itself is stunning — beautifully designed, spotless, and only a 5-minute walk from the beach

A very beautiful place to stay in a very affordable village. The ONLY downside is the noise from the nearby airport, but it is a small price to pay for such an amazing hotel

Breakfast was awesome. Massage was equally epic. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our concierge, Hara, was an absolute joy to work with. We would return in a heartbeat!

Hotel was amazing. Would definitely stay again and recommend. The breakfast buffet was beyond expectations. Pool and service throughout the hotel was amazing.

Just got back from a fantastic 7 night stay at the Santo Miramare. Must say what a fantastic hotel this is. It’s situated right opposite the beach with sun beds and umbrellas available for hotel guests

When we arrived at the hotel we was greeted by the receptionist and concierge, our room was ready so once we check in our luggage was taken to our room, I had booked a standard double room and our room looked onto the pool area

Location of the hotel is great, walk out at the beach side and there is ample of restaurants, we are lunch mainly at taste of the beach just because lunch was beaut there but we ate evening meal at a different restaurant every night

The pool areas are lovely, no need to reserve a bed, don’t know if it was due to time of year but I was up around pool at 9ish and had pick of the beds

Room cleaned every day, fresh towels every day. The sun loungers are the best weve ever had. We had no problem getting a sunbed without the early morning panic

Wonderful hotel. Soundproof rooms. A delicious breakfast with plenty of variety. Free sunbeds on their beach. Spotlessly clean. Great staff.

Breakfast selection (something for everyone). Staff very helpful and friendly. Beach is right in front of the hotel across a promenade. Lots of shops/restaurants on your doorstep. Bus stop to Fira a 5 minute walk away

A wonderful experience at Aqua Blue! The service from everyone was top, and in particular, we would like to thank heartily Ms. Marilena who always helped us whenever we needed it. A wonderful place with fantastic people

We absolutely loved this hotel and cannot fault it. The room and the hotel generally was spotless and kept that way by an army of wonderful workers, big shout out to Ervis, who is an asset to the team

Marilena on Reception, who couldn’t have been more helpful and finally to Aris on the beach, who was an absolute delight and tended to us unfailingly! Throughly enjoyed our holiday and will definitely be back! Thank you all

Towels were changed every day and the pool area is peaceful and nice. Water in the pool is little chilly. The breakfast at the hotel restaurant was generous and varied

This is a nice hotel friendly staff, nice room, clean, right across from the beach

We stayed as part of a mother/daughter birthday trip, and my mom's favorite part was the private jacuzzi. Unfortunately, we only stayed 2 nights, so we didn't get to use the pool, but it looked fantastic

Vedema offers a luxury escape in the heart of the small Greek town of Megalochori with its 400 year old cave restaurant (Alati) and some of the best volcanic wines we tasted on the island

Upon arrival, we found out that the resort had upgraded us to a suite with private hot tub, which was a lovely surprise. The reception agent that checked us in gave us a property tour on the way to our room

Choosing this resort was the perfect way to end our first parents-only getaway. Megalochori’s quiet streets, local vibes, and wonderful people made our stay feel truly relaxing after the busy days in Oia

If you are looking for a 5-star property that is removed from the crowds and located in a much more authentic area than Fira and Oia, look no further. We arranged airport transfers through the hotel

Low level buildings with privacy for all. Limited choice of restaurants in October for alternative dining experiences. We hired a car which allowed us to explore the island which we would recommend

The staff are fantastic - so helpful and welcoming. The hotel has its own private beach and sunloungers, which is where we spent most of our time

The rooms and facilities were brilliant. To be so close to the beach too was a massive bonus. We spent most days at the beach as there was nice breeze. Rocky beach but smooth pebbles. A handy jetty to help get futhsr out

I think if you're staying on the east side of the island, you have to expect some air traffic noise. That being said its a small airport, so it's not like there's planes taking off or landing every 30 seconds

We stayed here in August 2023 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The rooms were clean, well furnished and equipped. The breakfast was pretty standard, but it did change every day with what was on offer

It's about a 20 minute walk into Kamari, or about 5 minutes and €20 in a taxi, that the hotel reception will organise for you. It is near the airport so there is a bit of airport noise

A little bit out of the way if you want the bustles of a busy village, but close enough that you can be in Kamari in minutes if you want to be. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Thanks for the services and there is a public bus stop just right infront of the hotel and also very near the caldera beach

We stayed at Hotel Goulielmos for 10 days - which I thoroughly recommend so you can really see all of Santorini and enjoy what the country has to offer without rushing about, plus have time to relax

Hotel Goulielmos is honestly one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed. It’s tucked into the cliffs of Akrotiri, not crowded at all, and has that peaceful, away-from-it-all feeling

I enjoy the most with the volcanic view, the room services and the food! The room is a bit small but the balcony is quite big with volcanic view with a free rose wine

There are a couple of little mini markets just up the road, and you can walk to the village where you’ll find Theofanis Greek Experience – an amazing restaurant with incredible live music, dancing, and yes… plate smashing

The best hotel I’ve been to in a long long time. The rooms were clean and accessorised, we had a private balcony with a view to the sea and the volcano. The staff was so kind and thoughtful, always eager to help

It was nessesary to write review on this hotel. Hospitality and team of Kamari beach is absolutely amazing. To be honest, i never has such a beautiful experience as this. All staff is kind, respectful and communicative

I was in this hotel for one week. I would like to tell you that it was wonderful experience. Beautiful place, nice beach, beautiful pools. All employees was absolutely amazing. Specially barthenders and waiters

Perfectly located for the beach, with lots of restaurants, bars & shops within easy walking distance

Loved our stay at RK Beach Hotel. Perfect beachfront location near all the action. The staff, including Petros, Anastasia, and the wonderful Alex, were incredibly friendly and efficient

Perfectly located for the beach, responsive & friendly staff who efficiently responded to room requests sent via email in advance

There are very lot of things to do. Very nice beach, close restaurant and sports what can you do

A stone throw from the beach and beach front restaurants and bars

Along with a safety deposit box (at no extra charge), large bottle of water and a bottle of local wine. Also fresh flowers were set in the room for our arrival. Breakfast was beautiful and a good variety

Local bus stop at the bottom of the street and only 2€ into fira leaving every 20mins We had an evening flight and staff were so accommodating in allowing us to keep the room until 7

Amazing location (close to Kamari beach, bus stop, etc), pool is fantastic, staff is incredibly helpful, they give you a welcome drink upon arrival and have lockers to store your luggage (and changing rooms/showers) if you arrive early, the rooms are spacious and immaculate-- I would live here if I could!

Just back from a 4 night stay at this fantastic hotel. The staff from the moment we arrived were outstanding. Greeting us at the front door to giving us a choice of 2 rooms

Ideal location 5 minutes walk from the beach. We added a 5th person to our booking at short notice and they were so accommodating, offering us a choice of beautiful rooms. Staff so helpful and friendly

Very clean and great service rooms are big and great space! Breakfast is great! Lovely and quiet place! Many different dinning options, beach has black sand but is amazing clear! Seaview hotel was awesome we will stay here again!

The hotel is kept very clean and the rooms are cleaned everyday with fresh sheets and towels!! Every morning there is fresh breakfast with fruit, cereal, eggs, tuna, feta cheese, bread and all sorts of great food

The beach accessed from the front of the hotel is stunning, padded lounges and waiter service. Sand is like lava so be aware. So many restaurants and bars either side of the hotel and only a short walk

Hotel located directly on the beach, small, clean and friendly. Hotel rooms could do with a slight uplift but offer plenty of room. Plenty of choice at breakfast and great views while eating

The pool is small but given the size of the hotel it never feels busy. Big shout out to George who serves on the beach, always has a smile on his face and is very polite

I do not know everyone's name so please forgive me for not mentioning you by name. Spiro, whom is her assistant is the most friendliest, sweetest man I have ever met. Ana, the receptionist is also very helpful

Super relaxing spot, the management are really friendly and the staff bring beers and food out to the private beach

A wonderful beachside stay! We had a fantastic time at Nostos Beach Bar and Hotel

The service was excellent from start to finish, and the location is unbeatable—right on the beach with great access and very comfortable sun beds. There are also plenty of other bars and restaurants nearby to explore

It’s a below par very basic hotel who’s main attribute is it’s seafront location. Literally 10 meters away to the black stone and pebble beach at Kamari. They serve warm lattes which are vile and costly

The rooms are cleaned daily and fresh towels supplied. The bathroom in our room was tiny. When I sat down my forehead was touching the opposite wall. I’m not a particularly big man either

Excellent location near to the beach. Great view. The staff is very friendly. Free breakfast and wifi. The room was very basic.

We had a lovely stay in this hotel, perfect location across from the beach, has its own sunloungers, we had bed and breakfast and couldn't fault it, everything from bacon, eggs to fresh croissants, the staff were helpful and friendly, rooms serviced daily, only downside for me would be the very small bathroom

Stunning location right in the heart of the action and on the beach front, so option of pool or beach day with “lounger” service at both. The place impeccably clean and tidy

Sun beds are lacking and people do get up early to reserve them but at least you have the option of the free sun beds at the beach which helps. We had a courtyard room and it was all we needed for sleeping in

WiFi excellent and one massive shout out to the stunning service received around the pool on a daily basis by Phoebe - nothing was every too much trouble and the miles she must walk a day serving everyone, she most definitely deserves top recognition

Well what can I say, just returned from a week at this hotel and after 4 consecutive years in Santorini, this tops them all

Everyone had a smile on their face and staff welcoming from the moment we walked through the front doors

Great location, nearby to public parking and right at the beach. Amazing staff and the breakfast spread was also good. The rooms and washroom were a bit small, but okay for a short stay

Unfortunately I had to move room due to mobility issue & unable to climb stairs daily and near impossible to keep climbing in and out of the roof terrace with such a beautiful beautiful view without hitting my head! I was given a choice of available rooms with no extra charge! The staff were very helpful & even made it special for me by moving the balloons and all my luggage! The Hotel is literally...

Such a nice beach hotel I say maybe a 3 Star, Staff where so friendly and helpful both staff on reception,and Zikos and Kostas. Shower was very small and never hot water even though staff said it was checked

Beautiful hotel at the great location! Everything from breakfast to beach lounges were perfect! Amazing welcoming staff and the owner who made us feel like home! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Lovely quiet hotel that is clean and well maintained. It’s a great location and a beach front hotel. Staff are friendly and helpful

Thank you so much for having us. Staying at Alesahne was absolutely amazing. The sweetest people working there, delecius breakfast, a georgeus hotel, with the best view, we have ever seen

The rooms were clean, tidy and comfortable and it was reasonably quiet, unlike some other parts of the island. The staff were lovely and ready to help and we enjoyed the downstairs cafe on several occasions

Lots if steps so it wouldn't be suitable for elderly. Room a decent size with a firm bed which is comfortable. Beautiful balcony with deck chairs. Restaurants and mini mart nearby. Bus to Fira comes every 30 minutes

Perfect place for an laid back and relaxing holiday! Nice and clean room, great breakfast, sea just few steps from your room. Mathios and he’s staff are superb.

Beautiful hotel, with great views and cozy rooms, and the nicest staff. Very close to restaurants and the Red Beach, and we'll communicated. Really enjoyed our stay

If you are looking for a quiet base to explore the island from, you could do worst than the Hotel Akrotiri. If we come back we'll be booking again

The hotel staff are kind and helpful. The terrace overlooks the sea. The walk to the sea takes only a few moments. We especially thank Nikki and the other staff for their smiles and hard work

Loved the location, the view and the people. Breakfast was good and it came at time you ordered it. Location was great as you were so close to everything including the bus stop to get around the island

Early check-in, great breakfast, splendid view. Place is not crowded and quiet. Nice place to enjoy lunch/dinner if you order it, instead of going to a restaurant. Pool is decent and cleaned daily.

Wonderful experience, beautiful property, accommodating management/owners, very close to where you want to be for food, drinks, shopping and entertainment. We were 100% happy with this place.

Great location, close to the bus station. Beautiful view from the balcony and nice breakfast. Staff is really friendly and you can store you can store your luggage begore check in.

This place is awesome! Nice quiet 10 room hotel at the edge of Fira. It’s about five minutes to walk to all the action but all the nice quiet when you are ready to call it a night

Easily walk to restaurants and stores. The view was spectacular for sunsets and watch the cruise ships. Loved our stay and would stay there next time we come to Santorini

Also, the Buddha Bar (within which the reception is located) is really really expensive in comparison to the other places around (they charged us 13€ for a bottled local beer)! Other than that, amazing spot, much better than Oía from our point of view

One can get the best view of the sunset from the hotel balcony. The food served at the Buddha Bar is sumptuous. Costa and all the entire team of the hotel are very warm welcoming. The hospitality is impeccable

The view alone is worth everything! Definitely book one of the 5 rooms with the view. Do yourself a favor and skip the complimentary breakfast and walk down to Confetti next door for breakfast

If I was to say something that this accommodation could improve, it would be the breakfast selection, as well as having a kettle in the room for those that don’t drink coffee (me!)

However, it’s actually an amazing view throughout the day really! We had the honeymoon suite, which had its own terrace with a hot tub from which we had views out to the caldera

Not the best Buddha bar in the world.. but it was good I ordered virgin lady Chicken Katsu with carry Service was good and staff was helpful

We enjoyed our wonderful stay at this lovely Hotel with superb rooms, very good breakfast and Friendly Staff right at the beach. We highly recommend It. Would love to go back there one day.

Yiannis and his team made us super welcome. Perfect stay in the most perfect spot. The hotel is well placed for a short walk into Kamari and could not be closer to the beach

Nice beach, though little rocky (got to be careful not to slip)

This place is right on the water with a black sand beach, and service that is both friendly and above and beyond what we expected

Very nice resort. It was a nice distance from the Kamari beach strip. The hotel did not take the credit card until the end of my stay which I thought was odd. The staff were very friendly. Place was clean.

Hotel is located next to the airport and planes fly directly over - however we got used to it and even little bit liked it (quite cool sight, must be dream destination for plane spotters!)

It was an exhilarating place very near to the beach. Enjoyed every bit of our stay here. The staff are very friendly, cordial and helpful.

We went for my wife’s birthday/late anniversary. The hotel was outstanding, picturesque! The staff…amazing. Maria and her son Stefan were very accommodating & they had petals on the floor on arrival for us in our room

The hotel is spotless, the pool area to die for whilst the food and drink are affordable and of the highest quality. It’s right on the beach and for early birds to watch the sun come up is simply perfect

Special mention to Manos the waiter, he made many moments very special with his great humour & a highlight of our dinners. The beach is next to the hotel and we spent every morning here after breakfast

Great, will stay another time! Great stay, breakfast was included, beach near by, friendly and approachable staff, all speak english and very well organised

A 20 minute beach walk to the left as you face the sea brings you to a series of beachfront restaurants that are certainly a highlight of any stay here

This is such a unique hotel in Santorini. It’s beachfront, with free access to the stunning black sand beach, a must-see and a wonderful place to swim

The design is exceptional, and the interior decor with its decorative details is outstanding. The food is absolutely delicious, and we loved spending our days swimming in the pool or the sea while enjoying tasty snacks

Best experience I’ve had staying at a hotel, period. The staff was incredibly kind, generous, and very accommodating. After spending time in Oia and Fira, I would not stay anywhere else in Santorini except Istoria

The hotel is located on an authentic, less crowded side of Santorini, offering a more peaceful atmosphere but still with plenty of options nearby. The service was excellent as well

My wife and I shared three incredible days at the Istoria Hotel on Santorini in September 2025

There is a lot of hype about Oia and Fira but you can take a car/taxi to visit those places which we found to be very touristy and crowded
