Tips for Santorini in a Bigger Group?

Hi all! I’m planning a trip to Santorini later this year with a bigger group—about 8 of us, all adults—and I’d love some tips from anyone who’s done it before.

We’re trying to figure out the best area to stay that’s scenic but also practical for a group (maybe with a villa or multiple rooms close together). Are Oia or Fira still good choices, or should we look elsewhere for better space and value?

Also, any advice on getting around with a group? Should we rent a van, book a driver, or rely on taxis? I have never traveled in a group this large before.

Foods to Try in Santorini?

I might be heading to Santorini soon and would love some foodie recommendations! I’ve been to Greece before but never to the Cyclades, and I’ve heard Santorini has some unique local flavors thanks to its volcanic soil and island traditions.

I’m looking for fun, regional dishes that really give you a taste of the island—not just the standard Greek fare (though I love those too). I’ve heard about things like fava (the yellow split pea puree), white eggplant dishes, and tomato keftedes (tomato fritters), but I’d love to know what else is considered local and worth trying.

Any must-try specialties, hidden gems, or local ingredients I should look out for? And if you have restaurant suggestions that serve great local food with a view, even better!

Thanks in advance—can’t wait to eat my way around the island!

Laundry facilities in Santorini

Hi,

Do any of the hotels have washers and dryers? Or are there laundromats on the island?

Best Beaches in Santorini for Kids?

We’re planning a big family trip for early autumn and Santorini is one of the top contenders. We’ll have a mix of adults and kids in our group, mostly ages 4 to 10, and I’m trying to get a sense of how family-friendly the beaches are.

Are there any beaches on Santorini that are safe, sandy, and good for swimming with younger children? Shade would be a huge plus, or at least nearby tavernas where we can take breaks. We’re also wondering about beach access, are there spots that are easier to reach with kids and beach gear (less rocky or steep)?

We’re not expecting huge playgrounds or anything, just something relaxing and low-key where kids can enjoy the water and we don’t have to stress too much.

How was the airport experience in Santorini?

I’ve been to Santorini a few times, but I’ve always arrived and departed by ferry, never by plane. For my next trip, I’m thinking about flying in or out, depending on how the itinerary shapes up, and I’d love to hear from those of you who’ve actually used the Santorini airport.

How was your experience? Is it as chaotic as some reviews make it sound, or does it just depend on the time of year? I’m curious about everything, check-in lines, baggage claim, the size of the terminal, transportation to and from hotels, even how early you’d recommend arriving before a flight.

I’d also love to know if there’s a big difference between domestic and international departures. Is it worth paying extra for a direct flight, or are the Athens connections smooth enough? Any first-hand details would really help me plan ahead for next year’s trip.
