Belvedere Suites Santorini in Thira 847 00, open JuneSeptember.

With a 4.6-star rating, the venue handles all coordination in-house, from catering to day-of logistics.

One of the best hotels we’ve stayed in. From the beginning to the end Chris at the front desk was our man who helped us out. He helped set us up with an amazing catamaran cruise and he also gave wonderful recommendations. He took the time to even give us a pointers of the island the viewpoints to see. The rest of the staff were so helpful and kind. The hotel itself is beautiful. The location is perfect. It’s about 10-15 min walk from Fira. It’s still somewhat a busy area but when sitting by the pool you don’t hear any of the noise. Sitting by the pool was an absolute highlight. Pool was cold but felt really refreshing after being in the sun all day. The hotel serves in our opinion the best sunset view in all of Santorini. The breakfast is very delicious. The hotel also shares a parking lot so if you have a car or atv you have parking.
