If any island in Greece can be considered essential then that would be Santorini. With an active volcano and the most beautiful sunsets in the world, it is a popular destination for honeymooners, families, lovers and people looking for love. Most people want to stay in the towns of Thira, Oia, Imerovigli and Firostefani which are on the rim of the volcano, overlooking the sea. Rooms and suites with caldera view can be expensive but don't have to
be. If you want to be close to the beach stay in Kamari or Perissa. Hotels are listed from highest category
to lowest with
villas, apartments, houses and simple rooms last. You can get information on Santorini by going to my Santorini Guide. A great way to plan your trip is my Create-an-itinerary
