Overview

 
Nestled just behind Kamari’s famous black-sand beach, Aegean Plaza Hotel blends traditional whitewashed Cycladic architecture with a relaxed, resort-style pool scene. Three shimmering pools, palm-fringed terraces and family-friendly room options create an easygoing base for couples and families who want beach days, sunset cocktails and simple access to Santorini’s must-see sights.

Think gleaming white buildings, stone walkways and blue-shuttered balconies wrapped around three inviting pools – Aegean Plaza Hotel feels like a mini Cycladic village moments from the sea. With Kamari’s car-free promenade and charcoal-coloured shore just 150m away, you can wander between the beach, bars and hotel in flip-flops, then retreat to peaceful courtyards and comfy sunbeds when you’re ready to switch off. For couples and families seeking Santorini’s charm without the cliff-edge bustle, Aegean Plaza Hotel delivers a laid-back Kamari base with everything close to hand. It’s around 60 minutes from Santorini (JTR) airport by coach, and only 150m from both the beach and resort centre. See more Greece holidays.

Map & location


Kamari, Santorini, Greece

Cool Kamari sits on Santorini’s east coast, with a sweeping black, pebbly shore backed by a relaxed, car-free promenade. Aegean Plaza Hotel is tucked just behind the seafront, so you’re close to the buzz without being right on top of it. Wander a couple of minutes to reach the beach, waterfront tavernas and cocktail bars, or head into Fira – the island’s lively capital – for caldera views and rooftop sunset drinks.

Kamari is also a handy base for exploring the rest of Santorini: Perissa’s beach is a short drive away, and you can easily day trip to Oia, the Three Bells of Fira and the island’s wineries.

  • • Beach (Kamari black-sand/pebble beach) 150m
  • • Kamari resort centre & promenade 150m
  • • Fira (capital) a few kilometres (short taxi or bus ride)
  • • Perissa beach short drive by car or taxi
  • Approx. transfer time from airport 60 minutes

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


The heart of Aegean Plaza is its generous pool area: three freshwater pools, including a dedicated children’s pool, are framed by stone terraces, palms and low-rise white buildings. Sunbeds and parasols line the deck, and pool towels are available with a refundable deposit, making it easy to settle in for lazy days on-site.

From the hotel, it’s just a short stroll (around 150m) to Kamari’s black-sand and pebble beach. The gently shelving shoreline, organised sections with loungers and umbrellas, plus a string of beach bars and tavernas behind, make it ideal for relaxed seaside days and sunset strolls.

Spa, sports & wellness


Keep active between sunlounger sessions at the air-conditioned gym, which features cardio machines, a free weights area and fixed strength equipment. It typically opens from 09:00 to 20:00 between late April and late October (hours and dates may vary by season).

Elsewhere, you’ll find a 24-hour-style reception area with concierge-style assistance and luggage storage. Kettles and certain items can be hired from reception if not already in your room. While there’s no full spa, you’re well placed to book local massages or beauty treatments in Kamari.

Food & drink

Start the day with breakfast on the terrace at the main buffet restaurant, where local Greek favourites sit alongside international hot and cold options. In the evening, Half Board guests can return for relaxed buffet dinners focused on Mediterranean flavours and Santorini produce.

The pool bar keeps things easy during the day, serving drinks and light bites so you don’t have to wander far from your lounger. Expect a mix of local and international drinks, from Greek beer and house wine to soft drinks and coffees.
