Santorini hotel ideas

Depends what you want. We loved Hotel Aethrio in Oia. An oasis behind a non-descript gate and wall on a walking path from the parking lot to the centre of Oia. Nice pool. Our room had a very nice large deck with sunset views over the Aegean. Its not on the caldera side, but that was fine for us - much less expensive and in Oia the sunset views to the west are better than the southern views to the caldera anyway. https://www.aethrio.gr/

We were just in Santorini last week. Janet recommended Hotel Mylos in Firostefani and it was perfect! Rooms are small but we did not stay in the room that much; just need the room to shower and sleep. Great room with a view of the sea and Mina was the best host! The location is perfect and just a short walk to Firo and the bus pickup area is 50 meters away. Keep in mind that it is hard to bring your luggage but if you hire a car then the driver will take your luggage to your room. I have more to say about Mylos Hotel but I am off to the Acropolis now!

I want to thank everyone on this Forum for all the great advice. We are having a great time in Greece!

We loved absolutely everything about our stay at Lithies Traditional Homes, which is located in Firostefani. Beautiful accommodations; five star service by Maria and Sony; complimentary transfer and luggage assistance; great breakfast; memorable sunset views of the caldera. I believe they have a special promotion for the month of April. It is withing walking distance of Aktaion Restaurant which is also highly recommended; reservations suggested. Enjoy Santorini!

We loved our stay at Blue Dolphin Suites, recommended by Janet on this forum. It's located in Firostefani. Our room was a comfortable size with a balcony overlooking the caldera. We walked to Aktaion, which the above poster recommended. One of our best meals of our trip.
