As I mentioned in my last post, I absolutely fell in love with Santorini. I took so many pictures, I couldn’t fit them all into one post. Everywhere you turn in Santorini looks like a postcard! Here are some of my favorite, random views I stumbled upon in Santorini. All of these pictures were taken in the village of Oia. I’ll stop talking here and let you look. Be sure to scroll down to the bottom for our hotel recommendation!
If you have any questions about Santorini, please let me know in the comments and I’ll try to answer them. :)
Take me to Santorini…
Where to Stay in Santorini
We spent our last 2 nights in Santorini at Andronis Luxury Suites.
This was the incredible view from our balcony.
Look at that restaurant down there! That is the hotel restaurant.
How amazing would it be to have a sunset dinner in those purple chairs??
Fabulous infinity pool!
Could seriously stay in here all day.
If you go down the steps, there’s a smaller, more private pool.
Here’s a peek at our room.
How awesome is this cave-like bathroom??
And oh my gosh… Our balcony… I honestly could’ve lived out here.
We had breakfast out here every morning.
It was honestly one of the best room service breakfasts I have ever had. SO good!! Seriously loved everything about our stay at Andronis Luxury Suites!!
Can you stand one more post about Santorini?? Stay tuned!!
Hi what is the hotel called in your photo with the steps that look like chocolate chips.
I absolutely loved Santorini! We went with my husband last first week of May just for a day but we just love it! It’s beautiful everywhere you go, I also took a lots of pictures and I would like to go back there!! Thanks for the pictures they are gorgeous x
Spectacular photos, thank you, I too took hundreds of photos! We hope to visit again in 2020 on our third cruise to Santorini. I love Oia so much I have created a 1 metre square canvas from one of my photos of this beautiful town, which I see every time I enter my front door.
Hi Amanda,
Headed to Greece for two weeks, in about one week. We are doing a customized land tour with HP Tours bc your post was so good. Doing Corinth, Delphi, and Meteora. Athens for 24 hours. Then the island of Paros for 4 nights and Santorini for 5. I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope you enjoyed!! Delphi and Meteora were amazing!!
SO BEAUTIFUL AND so informative. Thank you!!! I am planning my santorini Athena trio right now. We are also heading to Italy so don’t have too much time. I have been incredibly torn by choosing between Santorini and Mykonos. It appears that you have not been to Mykonos. However i was wondering… are the streets and alleyways of Santorini just as picturesque and beautiful as the whitewashed blues and cobblestone streets of Mykonos? I base this on photographs, as I’ve nevwr been. I feel like all the photos of Santorini are of the hillside and cliffs of beautiful white domed buildings. And Mykonos is more the white buildings in streets and blue shutters/doors etc. does Santorini have that same Mykonos street vibe?
Hi Casey! Thank you so much for your sweet comment! You’re right, I did not go to Mykonos. Originally I wanted to go to both Mykonos and Santorini. We had 5 days to split between the two. However after doing some research, I decided I wanted to spend all 5 days in Santorini! From what I saw, they are both pretty and have a similar look, but Santorini looked prettier and more charming. Santorini has more of the blue domes. The big draw of Mykonos is the beaches and the nightlife / party scene. Santorini doesn’t really have any easy access beaches. Since we weren’t interested in laying on the beach or partying at night, we decided to skip Mykonos and spend more time in Santorini. But if you’re looking for beach/nightlife you may prefer Mykonos! Hope this helps! :)
Hi Kevin and Amanda
My name is Vivi and i came from Indonesia
YOu have a good picture about Santorini…
Thanks anyway it can be my reference about Santorini
Warm Regards
We stayed at the Andronis for a week in 2009 and it was Heaven! We stayed in the Zeus room. Just spectacular. I left my heart in Santorini. The smell of honeysuckle in the air has never left my senses.
Those are such beautiful pictures. Thank you.
Drooling!!!! I seriously want to go now – it’s always been a dream of mine to go to Santorini. I love reading your blog, Amanda. Can’t wait for the next installment!
How did you get such beautiful pictures without people? We were there in November on a cruise stop and the people were as thick as mosquitos!
I am enjoying my vacation with you Santorini is beautiful! The blue water is amazing and the homes on the cliffs look like “tiny homes,” I look for your email everyday to see where we went. I am very jealous of your ability to get up and go with no strings holding you back, Looking forward to our next stop.
Those azaleas growing over the white and blue house? Whoa. Melting my heart and the snow pelts down. You take such amazing pics! Gymboree actually makes a clothing line with the Santorini theme for girls. Too cute. Speaking off girls, I have to get off your blog and stop drooling at your photo’s so I can play Go Fish with my 4-year-old. =)
one word — beautiful!!
Your pictures bring back memories of our day in Santorini while visiting during a cruise stop. It was not enough time and we want to go back.
Such gorgeous pictures. Santorini is on my bucket list for sure.
