Boasting an outdoor pool with sunbeds and umbrellas, the Cycladic-style Villa Arlene Boutique is located in Messaria Village.

The swimming pool was nice although I didn’t get to Use it since I was only there for 1 night. It’s close to Kamari beach by bus and also sort of close to the ferry port by taxi. The bed is one of the softest and most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept on!

Centrally located in Fira Town, the renovated Sweet Pop offers an outdoor pool with sun terrace and tastefully decorated rooms with free WiFi.

It was quiet and not too many people. Excellent staff, friendly and helpful.

Offering sea views, Oia Spirit Boutique Residences in Oia offers accommodations and pool with a view. The air-conditioned accommodations are a 13-minute walk from Katharos Beach.

This is hands down one of the best, and most memorable stays ever. First, the staff - Mario, Greg, and the entire staff are absolutely amazing. They go above and beyond every single day to make the stay magical. They were responsive to all of my questions, and were so helpful with recommendations and setting anything up we needed. They are fabulous, and they alone really made the trip. And then the hotel itself - it is pristine clean, with the nicest accommodations (because we were there on low season, we got to peak in a couple of rooms - there is literally not one bad one in the bunch). You are in THE location to be at. It is not an exaggeration how close to the blue domes you are - you could literally touch them. The views are absolutely stunning. And, you are only a few steps away from the Main Street - so it’s truly not taxing to get in and out each day. I’m someone who really searches for a hotel (I had 22 saved on booking for Santorini!), but this one is the place to stay for the best experience. Don’t hesitate, just book it!

Villa Koronios is located 5 minutes walk from the center of Fira town in Santorini. It features a swimming pool with hot tub and a spacious sun terrace.

It’s great value for money. About 12 mins walk from the town across a car park. It’s quite basic but good. Good pool and very clean.

Located in Oia, Elysian Elia Heritage offers a garden. Built in 19th century, the property is within 2.7 mi of Cape Columbo Beach. Free WiFi is available and Naval Museum of Oia is 1.5 mi away.

Katerina was an excellent host. She gave us lots of information about the area. When we had trouble figuring out the coffee maker she popped in every morning to make coffee for us, The cave house was in an excellent location and very quiet. It was only a 10 minute walk to Oia but nice to be a bit away from the busy tourist area. Felt very safe walking around, even at night. We really enjoyed sitting outside in the beautiful garden and also the hot tub was nice.

Family-run Pension George is located in Karterados, just 1.2 mi from Fira, or a 15-minute walk. Surrounded by a garden with exotic plants, cacti and flowers, it hosts a swimming pool.

Loved this hotel!! It’s about a 15 minute walk to Fira, lots of restaurants and markets close by! The area has a great vibe! Irene was fantastic, she provided us with loads of information about the island. Would absolutely recommend staying here!!

Offering a shared hot tub, the traditionally built Aerino Villa is located in the scenic Firostefani. It features air-conditioned accommodations with minimal decoration and views over the caldera.

It takes a lot to write a review. For someone who doesn't write review, it's either super good or super bad for them to write a review. This hotel exceeded my expectation that i am willing to take the time to write a review. We stayed 3 nights 1st week of October 24'. The room has great view of the sea, the caldera and the sunset. you can watch sunset from your own hotel room (we did). Location is EXCELLENT, cannot be better. It is close to everything, 10 mins walk to Fia, 2 mins walk to one of the blue domed church, 10 mins to Airport, and 20 mins to Oia. Fia in comparison, is crowded and noisy. This hotel in Firostefani is the perfect location. Easy to catch a taxi, easy to find if you arrive at night. We arrived at 22:15pm at night and Flora made sure we got settled in our room. What's important is that this hotel has easy and safe access to the street if you arrive by car, like less than 2 mins walk. You don't need to carry your suitcase walking many stairs up and down. Not many people realize that all the hotels on the cliff are accessed by stairs only. BREAKFAST IS EXCEPTIONAL!!!!!! We were sold on the breakfast picture when booking the room, and we loved the breakfast every day. The breakfast picture is real, it is really what you get. The few neighborhood hotels below, their breakfast quality is just no way in comparison to this breakfast. I am not a bread person, but I ate the whole basket of bread every. single. day..... Also, a very good restaurant "TOBRIKI" next door and the Gyro place right across the villa. This is a hotel I already recommended to my friends. Flora is super nice, arranged taxi for us to the port. The lovely cleaning lady made us breakfast every day. we wish we stayed longer :)

Aura Suites is located in Firostefani, 2.2 mi from Volcano and features Caldera views. Every room at this guest house is air conditioned and comes with a flat-screen TV.

Staff very friendly. The room is very clean and the outdoor area is also cleaned every day. Beautiful sunset can be directly seen while chilling in the whirlpool. The hotel stuff also helped us to book a tour, and if needed, rental cars can be organized as well. The location is also perfect. Just right next to the town square (and the free parking lot).

    beautiful villa with private pool, great comfortable bed and beautiful interior design. at night very quiet. The host is very kind, always there to help if needed, and gave us lots of tips to enjoy the stay. Every two days, the cleaner would come and clean the villa, plus change all towels, that was a real treat.

    The hotel is very quiet. The room is very spacious, with two bathrooms, three bedrooms, good shower facilities, and basic daily toiletries. The host enthusiastically introduced us to the surrounding facilities and made the guests feel at home. It will be a good hotel and I will choose to stay there next time. Conditions are very good in all aspects

    Set 10 walking mins from transport and food, this property has all that is needed for your stay. It was in a very quiet neighbourhood. Our host was exceptional and welcoming. Nothing was an issue. The cave home is a wonderful experience. You will need to catch a bus from the town centre to get to either end of the island. Each trip cost 1.60 euros no matter where you get off, so have cash ready.

    Amazing cave house. We were so comfortable and loved it. Beds were so comfortable Netflix was a bonus and air con, fans and washing machine made it perfect. Very quiet neighbourhood dotted with beautiful Santorini churches and buildings. Was nice to hear locals cooking and chatting. Lots of very cute cats. Akis and Tina were amazing hosts and very helpful with all the info we needed.

    Evi was a great host and ensured we arrived at the property safely. Location in a quiet road but with easy bus links to Thira. Evi was very welcoming and ensured we had all the information we needed for an enjoyable stay.
