Who said you must break the bank if you want to stay in a traditional house with a caldera view in Santorini? The good news is I came up with this list of stunning Airbnbs in Oia, Santorini all at reasonable prices, in perfect locations.
No matter if you visit Santorini for a normal vacation or for your honeymoon, you will want to stay at least for a few nights in the ultimate location: Oia.
Because I’ve been there and I’ve looked all over for the best deals, I’m here to help you out so that you can make the best decision.
Even though staying at a hotel will always make you feel on vacation, I often opt for Airbnbs especially in places where I know that the hotels that offer what I look for, come with high price tags.
In places like Lisbon, the Cinque Terre, and Budapest, I’ve found amazing deals, in great locations, with breathtaking views, on Airbnb.
I know there are plenty of people not encouraging this kind of accommodation, but I think that Oia is the place where this is the only way to find more affordable places in great locations.

But before I dive into the list of stunning Airbnbs, here are a few factors I take into consideration whenever I look for a place to rent:
- I always book entire places, either apartment or villas depending on the number of people I travel with;
- It is all about the location – it needs to be easily accessible and to offer stunning views;
- Affordable – I don’t want to break the bank but we still need to take into consideration the location. You won’t find so many cheap hotels in Santorini, but you’ll find affordable Airbnbs.
- Aesthetics of the apartment – it needs to be a place you’ll love to stay in even for a few days; authentic Greek style.
- Reviews – I always spend a lot of time reading reviews, especially the bad ones. If there’s nothing too outrageous I wouldn’t panic.
