Fanari Villas – A Favorite for Families in Oia (Santorini)
About the Hotel
Rooms with Caldera Views
Fanari Villas offers cave-style suites with handcrafted wooden furniture and built-in stone-tiled beds. The top unit for 5 guests includes a master bedroom with a double bed, a spacious living area with a dining table, and a kitchenette corner. Some suites feature outdoor whirlpools on private terraces with views of the caldera, Thirassia island, and Oia Castle. Bathrooms include Apivita toiletries, bathrobes, and slippers. Lower-level units accommodate additional guests with open-plan layouts and cave-style showers.
Dining & Local Flavors
No onsite restaurants are listed, but Santorini's famous fava, tomato balls, and seafood dishes like fish stew are served nearby. The island's wines, known for their rich aroma, are worth trying. Many tavernas in Oia serve traditional dishes such as zucchini balls, chickpea balls, and sun-dried cherry tomatoes.
Leisure & Relaxation
Select suites include outdoor whirlpools on private terraces with sea and caldera views. The hotel's cave-like design provides natural insulation from heat.
