Honeymoon in Santorini Luxury Hotels

Romantic Honeymoon in Santorini

Santorini is certainly recognized as an extremely romantic place to visit with its sixty nine kilometers of coastline providing a large selection of different beaches, acres of vineyards and the main point that makes the island of Santorini so popular, the fantastically sheer cliffs ascending  in some cases as high as twelve hundred feet above sea level. Many of the Santorini luxury hotels are located atop these cliffs nestled in the different villages that are spread throughout the island.

This fantastical landscape was created as a result of a series of volcanic eruptions from the islands still active submerged volcano and in particular one major eruption in 1500 BC, which is still recorded as one of the seven biggest eruptions in the earth’s history, created the natural wonder of the world, the Santorini Caldera.
For a honeymooning couple this combination of romantically remote cliff top locations with the beautiful sandy beaches makes the island a perfect location.

Best locations on Santorini for a Luxury Stay

Located in the Aegean Sea, the island of Santorini, officially known to the Greeks as Thira (or Thera) is part of the island chain of the Cyclades. Along with Mykonos and Crete it is one of the top three luxury destinations of all the Greek islands for those who are not able to afford their very own island. Santorini gained its popularity amongst the many Greek islands due to its fabulous natural geography and the still active volcano that forms an integral part of the island.

As a result of the volcano’s activity the island has a spectacular natural landscape with sandy beaches and cliffs that rise up to almost twelve hundred feet above sea level. The two main locations most popular with tourists are the villages of Oia and Fira, the capital of the island, following by Imerovigli, a picturesque village situated 2 km south of Fira.

Most of Santorini luxury hotels are situated in these two villages both of which offer fabulous views over the Caldera and all of the Santorini luxury hotels have prime locations for watching the Caldera and the famous Santorini sunset over the Aegean Sea which is must see.

For those who prefer to stay in a beach hotel, we suggest the Veggera Hotel which is one of the best Santorini luxury hotels in Perissa beach.  

For most visitors seeking a luxury trip all the way, the ideal trip would be to embark on one of the many Greek island luxury cruise tours that allow longer stop offs at select locations. This would allow the more discerning tourist to take the time and travel in the lap of luxury around the islands while being able to spend several days on Santorini enjoying some of the unique sights such as the Red Beach which is composed of volcanic rock and lava infused sand giving it a mysterious red coloration contrasted by the White Beach next door which has pure white sand emphasized by sheer white cliffs up to the villages above. All luxury hotels in Santorini offer high class facilities and services to their guests.
