Crown Suites

Sitting amidst the whitewashed buildings of Santorini, Crown Suites offers hotel rooms near Kamari, on the island's east coast. It's a short walk from the closest open-air cafÈs, restaurants and tavernas. The hotel has an outdoor swimming pool that's surrounded by a terrace where you can relax with a drink. The building has a typically Greek whitewashed exterior, with glass balconies overlooking the rocky hillsides. You'll find a shaded canopy by the pool bar, where you can get snacks or meals, along with a terrace peppered with palm trees and leafy plants. Rooms have bright white walls, light coloured floor tiles and wooden furnishings, alongside turquoise upholstery, and all have a balcony or terrace. If you're looking to relax during your stay at Crown Suites, you can book a massage. The black, volcanic-sand shores of Kamari Beach are steps from hotel, and here you can swim in the shallow waters. The hotel is within driving distance of attractions across the island, including the former fishing village of Perissa and the steep cliffs of Oia. It's also a short drive from the Caldera, which was created during a volcanic explosion and is home to some of the island's best views.

Crown Suites is 300m from Kamari Beach, which holds Blue Flag status and is one of the best-known beaches on the island. It's 800m from the resort's main square, where you'll find places to eat, along with shops, clubs and late-night bars. It's 3km to the edge of Santorini Caldera, where you'll find traditional Greek wineries, steep cliffs and archaeological ruins, along with views across the island to the sea. Further afield, the characteristic whitewashed houses and blue domed roofs of Oia are 21km away. You could spend the day exploring its narrow alleys and passageways, and the castle is a popular place to watch the sunset.

At Mar & Mar Crown Suites, you can get snacks and meals from the poolside bar, which also serves a selection of drinks throughout the day. You can also find a buffet breakfast offered in the reception lobby. If you fancy dining out, you could wander down to the beach and order freshly caught seafood at a waterfront cafÈ.
