This enchanting property will be part of the esteemed LXR Hotels & Resorts collection, a brand synonymous with elegance and unique experiences, marking its debut in Greece.
Exclusive Reservations Now Open
Starting April 8, 2026, guests can begin making reservations at this idyllic resort, which promises breathtaking views of the Aegean Sea from its location on the island’s eastern shore. With only 66 meticulously designed rooms and suites—some featuring private pools—Sandblu Santorini aims to deliver a personal and tranquil getaway enveloped in traditional Grecian aesthetics, such as its charming stone exteriors and pristine whitewashed façades.
A Unique Hospitality Experience
The Sandblu Santorini opened initially in July 2024, but this transition into the LXR Hotels & Resorts portfolio marks a significant milestone for the brand, which is known for its character-rich properties. “Sandblu captures the ethereal spirit of Santorini in a way that is both understated and deeply refined,” stated Feisal Jaffer, the global head of LXR Hotels & Resorts. Positioned against a stunning backdrop, the resort combines contemporary design with the timeless beauty of its surroundings, ensuring a unique hospitality experience.
