Learn more about Santorini

Clinging to the rim of an ancient volcano, whitewashed villages cascade down dramatic cliffs towards the impossibly blue Aegean. Wander the narrow cobblestone lanes of Oia, where every turn reveals another perfect view framed by blue-domed churches. The black sand beaches of Kamari and Perissa offer swimming spots unlike any other, with volcanic mountains rising behind sunbathers. Take a boat tour across the caldera to the smouldering islet where the volcano still steams and bubbles. Wine lovers shouldn't miss Santo Wines, where tastings come with sunset views that explain why artists have been drawn here for centuries. For history buffs, the remarkably preserved Bronze Age settlement at Akrotiri reveals a sophisticated civilisation frozen in time by the ancient eruption.

  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may vary depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and season, so being flexible with your dates may help you save on your stay at a Santorini hotel. For those seeking unique experiences, boutique hotels may offer a more personalised touch and occasionally better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we'll inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average, and if it appears higher, we may suggest more affordable dates to potentially help you secure a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels near the city centre usually tend to be pricier, but thanks to Santorini's excellent public transport links, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel further afield that remains well connected. For those keen to explore alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby towns, there is often excellent value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
