City Breaks in Santorini: Top Holiday Lettings
-
Imerovigli
This village on the west coast is popular as a couples' retreat, romantic getaway and marriage destination. Not a place for loud nightlife, it has intimate cafes, an old monastery and more than its fair share of terraces with stunning sea views, ideal for saying vows or dropping a knee and popping the question.
-
Fira
The capital of Santorini is the place to go for bars and clubs. At the same time, its narrow lanes, churches, museums, and cultural centre have plenty of picturesque charm, and it's a short cable car ride down to the quaint old harbour below.
-
Emporio
The island's traditional trading centre, this large village lets you steep yourself in Santorini's rural past. The ancient, square castle standing at its entranceway, its fortified inner citadel, and whitewashed cottages make for dramatic otherworldly photo ops. It's also convenient for practical day to day shopping.
-
Pyrgos
Commanding a lofty position in the centre of the island, this village offers panoramic vistas wherever you look. There's also a good selection of taverns and well-reviewed restaurants, churches dating back to the 10th century, and an interesting cultural centre which paints a picture of the islanders' rustic lifestyle.
-
Megalochori
Nestled amid vineyards and fields of tomatoes, Megalochori is particularly notable for its beautiful multi-tiered bell towers, which look like they belong on top of a wedding cake. From there, you can walk down the cliffs to the serene, sun-kissed beaches of Plaka and Thermi.
