Why we love it
The setting
Katikies Kirini sits on the cliffs above Oia, on the northern tip of Santorini, with the caldera dropping away below. The suites are cut into the white volcanic rock in the Cycladic style, so terraces step down the hillside and most rooms face west across the water. Oia Castle is a short walk along the village path, which puts you among the best sunset spots on the island.
What to expect
You stay in a Senior Double Suite of about 35 square metres, with a full double bed, a private bathroom and a terrace looking out to sea. Breakfast is included each morning. The hotel runs on infinity pools that sit on the cliff edge, white-on-blue interiors and quiet corners for a drink at dusk. It is an adults-focused, slow kind of place rather than a busy resort.
Things to do nearby
The Naval Museum is 1.2 km away and Oia Castle 1.3 km, both reachable on foot through the lanes. Katharos Beach is 1.8 km if you want a swim away from the crowds. The old harbour at the foot of the cliffs is 5.9 km, and Athinios Port is 9.1 km for ferries. Santorini International Airport is around 10.9 km by road.
Best for
Couples after caldera views, late dinners and long sunsets. Good for a honeymoon or a quiet anniversary trip rather than a lively beach holiday.

Walk the village lanes down to Oia Castle and the Naval Museum, then come back for a swim in the infinity pool. Book a cliffside table for dinner as the light fades.

Head down to Katharos Beach for a quieter morning by the sea, or take the path to Oia's old harbour at Ammoudi for fresh fish by the water.
