Akrotiri

This village is most famous for its ancient ruins, but the little collection of houses surrounded by gardens and fields is a pleasant place in its own right, a pretty slice of rural Santorini. A stay here removes you from the hustle and bustle along the caldera and puts you within easy reach of sights, wineries, and the island’s best beaches.
