Today (August 27, 2018): best luxury hotels in Santorini<\/strong><\/h5>\n

The Greek island of Santorini is arguably one of the world’s most idyllic islands<\/a>\u00a0and ranks among my favorite destinations on earth. Perched high above the deep blue Aegean Sea, Santorini\u2019s whitewashed villages are clustered atop dramatic cliffs, with black sand beaches resting at the bottom. The island was shaped\u00a0some 3,600 years ago by one of the largest\u00a0volcanic eruptions\u00a0in recorded history, which left a\u00a0giant water-filled crater measuring about 12 by 7\u00a0km (7.5 by 4 mi) and surrounded by 300\u00a0m (980\u00a0ft) high cliffs on all sides. Steeped in history and culture, Santorini is a place of ultimate romance and tranquil serenity that tempts you to unwind and revive in its warm embrac. The popular island is also known for its unique and ultraluxe hotels, where\u00a0rooms and suites are often\u00a0carved\u00a0into the rocks. I hereby share with you my 10 favorite luxury hotels on the island.<\/p>\n

There is\u00a0more information below the slideshow.\u00a0Think I missed one? Share your favorite hotel in Santorini in the\u00a0comments section<\/strong>, or take my\u00a0poll\u00a0<\/strong>below.<\/p>\n

The cliffs of Oia are dotted with traditional houses with their white washed domed roofs and their deep blue shutters and doors, providing Santorini island with a romantic atmosphere and creating a unique honeymoon destination. It is here that Ikies Traditional Houses, with its charming cave houses sculpted one on top of each other and all hanging on the edge of the caldera, is located.\u00a0Its small size, exceptional location, elegant design, charming range of luxury accommodation (honeymoon suites, maisonettes, and studios) and professional operation result in a rare blend of intimate and personalized service offered against a setting of unique physical beauty. Located at the edge of the volcanic crater and with commanding views over Oia village, into the caldera and of the surrounding Cycladic islands, guests at Ikies quickly tune themselves into the complete tranquility of the romantic village.<\/p>\n
