Ira Hotel & Spa in Thira 847 00, open June–September.
Ira Hotel & Spa stands apart in Santorini by offering an intimate clifftop property with spa facilities integrated directly into the wedding experience—a rarity among Cycladic venues.
Perched in Firosteфani with unobstructed Caldera views, the hotel provides both ceremony and reception spaces without requiring guest transfers between locations.
The on-site spa allows wedding parties to prepare in a single, cohesive environment rather than coordinating across multiple venues.
Kostas was very helpful and helped guide us through everything a tourist would need and more. This isn’t something you’d get at an ordinary hotel and I think that’s what made this experience so much more elevated. The hotel itself was very clean. The pool wasn’t set up because we came in the off season and the winds are too crazy to be outdoors much as is. The breakfast was simple but yummy and got the job done. The view from our room was beyond gorgeous. There are a plenty of stairs but it’s manageable. That’s all of Santorini though. Overall we had a really great stay and the hotel is in close proximity to the local strip of restaurants.
