363 Bar opens at 4pm — get there early for the best sunset seats. The outdoor terrace fills fast.

Why It Matters

Named the #1 Resort in Europe by Travel + Leisure, and #2 hotel in the world in 2022 by T+L readers. Has the largest infinity pool on Santorini's caldera. Varoulko restaurant is helmed by chef Lefteris Lazarou — the first Greek chef ever to earn a Michelin star (2002). 363 Bar was named Best Hotel Bar in Europe. Two new Infinity Suites launched in 2024, bringing room count to 23.

Twenty-three rooms, suites, and a villa carved into the cliffs of Imerovigli, 300 meters above the Aegean Sea. The hotel sits at the highest point on the caldera rim — quieter and less overrun than Oia, with views that arguably beat it. Severe white Cycladic geometry everywhere, but it reads warm rather than cold. The centerpiece is a 22-meter infinity pool, the largest on the caldera; below it, Varoulko Santorini serves Michelin-awarded cooking; one floor above, 363 Bar has been called the best hotel bar in Europe. Adults-only (ages 14+), except the Villa.

Where You'll Stay

9 room types available

Deluxe Room
Deluxe Room

Deluxe Room

The entry-level room at Grace, and it still delivers a king bed, caldera views, and a private balcony with four panoramic windows facing the volcanic landscape. Clean white walls, Nespresso machine, iPad room controls, minibar, Apivita toiletries, goose-down duvet, and a choice from a nine-option pillow menu. No plunge pool — a small compromise at this price point. Some units are on lower levels with slightly less privacy.
