Located in the Aegean Sea, Santorini is one of the Cyclades Islands. In the 16th century BC, the island was devastated by a volcano that created the underwater crater, or caldera, and the multi-colored beaches you see today. The island has two main towns, Fira, the capital, and Oia, which are built along the cliffs overlooking the caldera.
Visitors will find plenty of attractions to keep them busy during their stay. From exploring the black, red, and white sand beaches and hiking the cliffs along the volcano to shopping and enjoying the urban city life of Fira, being bored is only an option if you want it to be. When planning your island vacation, be sure to stay at one of these luxurious hotels that have an infinity pool with views of the sea and more.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and access to infinity pool. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on August 22, 2024.
