Grace Hotel Auberge Resorts Santorini

Boutique
Greece

Grace Santorini is a luxury boutique hotel designed to blend perfectly with its spectacular hillside setting. From every room, there are breathtaking 180-degree views of the Caldera and the wonderful Greek sunsets.

Many of the suites have private plunge pools and the award-winning Santoro restaurant delivers a memorable gastronomic experience. Although close to the main town of Fira, the hotel has a quieter, exclusive setting in Imerovigli.

Why we like Grace Hotel Santorini

The Grace has the best sunsets on the island.

Facilities

The 21 rooms range from deluxe with a plunge pool to a variety of suites, many of which have private plunge pools. There is also a private two-bedroomed villa with private pools plus its own spa for those wanting the ultimate in exclusivity.

Additional facilities include a wonderful infinity pool, spa, and gym. We recommend making reservations at the award-winning Santoro restaurant. Specialising in contemporary Greek cuisine it provides a unique gastronomic experience with signature dishes influenced by the produce of the Cycladic islands. Enjoy the famous sunsets from the Champagne Lounge with a Grace cocktail in your hand.

Please note Grace Santorini only accepts children above the age of 14 years old.

The Grace has developed an immersive experiential programme of activities.

Sample the unique characteristics of Santorini wine on a tour
