PLAN YOUR TRIP
We’ll be sharing some recommendations on where to stay, but please don’t feel obligated to follow them. These are just suggestions and we want you to choose what works best for you!
TRAVEL
AIRPORT
Santorini International Airport (JTR)
We always find that Skyscanner finds the best deals on flights, you can access the website HERE
TAXI
Taxi service is available at the Airport. There is aTaxi rank located in front of the departures building. Taxi's are on the pricier side in Santorini and we've usually paid around €25-30 to get from the airport to Kamari which is about a 15 minute journey. However, you can also use online platforms like KiwiTaxi, to book a taxi in advance and skip the hassle of waiting when you arrive. The cost is set in advance, so you know exactly what you’ll pay.
BUS
If you’re looking to get from Santorini airport to Kamari, KTEL buses are a great, affordable option. The bus stop is right outside the arrivals terminal, making it easy to find. First, the bus will take you directly to the central bus station in Fira. This is important to know as there are usually no direct buses from the airport to Kamari. So you’ll have to take a bus from the airport to Fira and then change buses to get to Kamari. The journey by KTEL bus from Santorini airport to Kamari, with changing lines, usually takes between 40 and 60 minutes, depending on traffic and will cost €2 per person on each bus.

WHERE TO STAY
We’ll be sharing a list of accommodation recommendations below. Some of our friends have mentioned they’d be interested in sharing an AirBnB to keep costs down, so if that sounds like something you’d be interested in, let us know and we’ll connect you with others who are open to sharing! Santorini has plenty of hotels, so there’s something for every budget. We recommend booking by June 2025 to make sure you get the best options for both flights and accommodation.
KAMARI
Jack and I will be staying in Kamari during our time in Santorini, and we’d love for our guests to stay there too! However, if you'd rather stay elsewhere it's no problem —just let us know in advance so we can arrange pickup on the wedding day.
Kamari is a beautiful coastal village full of charm and plenty of things to do! It’s known for its stunning black pebble beach, which stretches for 5km and is lined with a lovely stone-paved promenade filled with great restaurants and shops. Whether you’re looking to relax by the sea or explore the local scene, Kamari has something for everyone.
Here are a few hotel recommendations to suit different budgets:
Santorini Kastelli Resort
La Belle Vie
Smy Mediterranean
Cavo Bianco Boutique Hotel & Spa
Kalya Suites
Selini Hotel
Joanna Villas
If you’d prefer to stay in an apartment, be sure to check out Airbnb and Vrbo. If you're interested in sharing accommodation with other guests, let us know—we’d be happy to connect you!


MEGALOCHORI
The village where we’re getting married is called Megalochori. If you’re visiting for a short trip and want to stay close to the venue, this is the perfect spot. Megalochori is a hidden gem that offers a peaceful escape from the busier tourist areas. Since it’s a small and quiet place, there aren’t as many options for dining and nightlife—so if you’re looking for a livelier scene with more restaurants and bars, we’d recommend staying in Kamari instead.
Our wedding planners have recommended the following hotels / apartments if you want to stay near the venue:
Venues near El Viento:
Athermi Suites
Alti Santorini Suites
Vedema Resort
Ducatio Wine Hotel
Grand View Hotel
OIA & FIRA
Oia and Fira are the most picturesque villages on the island! With iconic whitewashed houses, blue-domed churches, and breathtaking sunsets, it’s no wonder visitors from all over the world come here to soak in its beauty and snap unforgettable photos of the Caldera.
That said, staying in Oia and Fira does come with a higher price tag! But if you’re looking for a luxurious stay, there are plenty of stunning hotels and apartments to choose from, as well as beautiful restaurants where you can enjoy a sunset view.
