Santorini Secret Premium
Oia | Santorini
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Whether you’re here to slow right down or to explore every whitewashed corner of the caldera, Santorini Secret Premium is a chic little haven in iconic Oia. This tiny, adults-only hideout pairs infinity-pool views with cave-style suites, most featuring private outdoor whirlpools facing the Aegean. With only five suites, service feels truly personalised, and you’re a short stroll from Oia’s marble lanes, sunset viewpoints and photogenic blue domes.
Carved into the cliffs on the quieter side of Oia, Santorini Secret Premium serves those pinch-me views of the caldera from almost every angle. Think infinity pool melting into the Aegean, terraces made for sunset cocktails, and a handful of white-on-white suites with private outdoor whirlpools and designer touches. With breakfast served à la carte and shared facilities at two stylish sister hotels, you get the intimacy of a micro-boutique with the perks of a larger resort.
For couples seeking Santorini’s cliffside charm without the crowds right on their doorstep, Santorini Secret Premium delivers an elevated yet laid-back base. You’re around 1 hour 10 minutes from Santorini (JTR) airport, with the final approach along Oia’s winding lanes done on foot. See more Greece holidays.

Location | Santorini Secret Premium
Location
Santorini Secret Premium sits on Oia’s famous caldera ridge, surrounded by whitewashed houses, blue-domed churches and narrow marble lanes. You’re close enough to walk into the centre of Oia for sunset viewpoints, galleries, wine bars and boutiques, yet slightly removed from the busiest corners so evenings can feel calmer on your terrace.
Katharos and Baxedes beaches are a short drive or taxi ride away for a toes-in-the-sand change of scene, while Imerovigli and Fira – home to more restaurants, bars and clifftop trails – are within easy reach for a day out. Expect some steps and sloping paths typical of cliffside Santorini settings.

Facilities and Rooms | Santorini Secret Premium
Restaurants and Bars
With just five suites, Santorini Secret Premium keeps things personal and refined. Your stay includes an elegant à la carte breakfast served from a set menu, so you can ease into the day with fresh coffee and Greek specialities on the terrace.
For main meals, you’ll dine at two excellent à la carte restaurants within the Santorini Secret collection:
• Black Rock Restaurant (at Santorini Secret Suites & Spa, approx. 50m away) – a clifftop venue known for creative Greek and international dishes at breakfast, lunch and dinner, with a dress code that kindly asks guests not to wear beachwear.
• White Rock Restaurant (at Secret View Hotel, approx. 1.3km away) – another contemporary spot with panoramic views and refined Greek-meets-international menus for all-day dining.
Smart dress codes may apply in the evenings, and reservations are recommended, especially in peak season. Menus, opening hours and supplements can vary depending on the time of year and your board basis; details are confirmed locally.
Stays here are on a Bed and Breakfast basis. For guidance on inclusive dining, see what All Inclusive typically includes (note: this hotel is not All Inclusive).
Pool Areas and Beach
The centrepiece is a serene outdoor freshwater infinity pool perched on the cliff edge, complete with a compact sunbathing deck, cushioned sunbeds and parasols. From here the views sweep across the caldera and out to the Aegean Sea – dreamy at sunrise, magical at golden hour.
Complimentary pool towels are provided, and facilities may vary by season and occupancy. For a more private soak, most suites feature an outdoor whirlpool with sunbeds or loungers on your terrace.
Beaches on this part of the island are reached by a short drive or taxi, with Katharos and Baxedes the closest options for a swim in the sea or a lazy afternoon by the shore.

FAQs | Santorini Secret Premium
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Santorini Secret Premium adults-only?
Yes. Santorini Secret Premium has a minimum age of 18 years, so it is aimed squarely at adults looking for a peaceful, design-led escape – particularly couples and honeymooners.
2. Do all rooms at Santorini Secret Premium have a private whirlpool?
Most suites at Santorini Secret Premium feature an outdoor whirlpool on the balcony or terrace, along with sunbeds or loungers. Specific facilities can vary slightly by room category and location on the cliff, so always check the room description when you book.
3. What board basis is offered and how is breakfast served?
Stays are on a Bed and Breakfast basis. Breakfast is served à la carte from a set menu, rather than a buffet, and you can typically expect a mix of international favourites and Greek flavours. Lunch and dinner are available at the sister hotels’ à la carte restaurants at an extra charge.
4. How far is Santorini Secret Premium from Oia centre and the beach?
The hotel is about 700m from the heart of Oia resort centre along the marble walkway, with cafés, boutiques and sunset spots en route. The nearest beaches are Katharos (around 1.3km away) and Baxedes (about 2.3km away), usually reached by a short taxi or hire car ride.
5. Where do I check in and are there many steps?
Check-in, check-out and reception services for Santorini Secret Premium take place at its sister property, Santorini Secret Suites & Spa, roughly 150m away along the pedestrian path. As with most clifftop hotels in Oia, there are steps and sloping walkways between buildings and down to the suites, so it’s not ideal for guests with very limited mobility.
6. Does the hotel have a spa and gym?
Yes, but they are located at sister hotels. You can use the air-conditioned gym (18+) and book spa treatments at Santorini Secret Suites & Spa or at Secret View Hotel, both part of the same collection. Spa and wellness services carry an extra charge and opening hours depend on the season and occupancy.
7. Is Santorini Secret Premium suitable for a honeymoon?
Very much so. With only five suites, private outdoor whirlpools, romantic caldera views and an adults-only policy, Santorini Secret Premium is particularly well suited to honeymoons, anniversaries and special-occasion escapes. Do let us know if you’re celebrating – we can request added touches with the hotel.
8. Is Wi-Fi available and is there mobile coverage?
Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel, including in the suites and pool area. Mobile coverage around Oia is generally good, though signal strength may fluctuate slightly due to the cliffside setting and traditional architecture.
