Oia
For couples and travellers who enjoy village architecture, caldera scenery and dining out
Cave houses and captains’ mansions give Oia an architectural story to explore. The northern caldera village has shops and restaurants, while its Maritime Museum adds context to the seafaring past. Ammoudi and Armeni are the village’s two old ports.
Start your accommodation search here if buildings, village outings and meals form the holiday you want. We would compare addresses against an evening route through Oia, then look at the particular room’s terrace and view. That gives the accommodation choice more substance than a general village photograph.
Ask for the precise location before deciding. An outing to Ammoudi needs a separate outward and return plan from time spent in the village above, especially when choosing where to end the day.
Our tip
Decide between an address in Oia and one towards the northern shore before comparing rooms. Plan the route to Ammoudi separately from evenings in the village.
