With equal time spent at sea and in port, Bermuda cruises offer the best of both worlds
f you’re looking for a no fuss, no muss vacation with lots of time for some quality R & R this summer, then a cruise to Bermuda could be just the answer, according to the experts at Maritime Travel.
“Bermuda cruises are an excellent choice for family and multi-generational getaways.” – Tara Clancey, Maritime Travel counsellor, Superstore Joe Howe Drive, Halifax, NS
“You get to spend several days at sea and really get to know your ship and then you’re typically in port for three days, which gives you even more
time to explore or simply relax on those legendary pink-sand beaches.” Located in the Atlantic Ocean off the east coast of the United States, Bermuda is especially appealing for summer travels when the kids are out of school and temperatures on this tiny British colony hover at a perfect 80 degrees. With its postcardpretty beaches, famous golf courses, sophisticated tax-free shopping, historic sites and charming ports, it’s no surprise that it enjoys such a high repeat visitor rate. “Visiting Bermuda by cruise ship is also a lot easier on your wallet,” says Tara of the traditionally costly island-nation.
SAIL ON: A number of the larger, family friendly cruise lines such as Royal Caribbean International and Norwegian Cruise Lines make the crossing to Bermuda from Baltimore or New York, docking in Kings Wharf and within easy travelling distance of the popular port towns of Hamilton and St. George’s. Bermuda’s cruise season runs from April to November and high season is June through August.

Generally, I love La Quinta hotels, but this particular one is very disappointing. Beds are worn and sagging. The toilet would not flush. A/C is loud. Additionally, the staff member we dealt with is rude and abrasive. The location is also suspect (borderline ghetto.) If you're a fan of the La Quinta chain, you'll be better served by checking in at another location such as the one on Cypress.

the location and the comfort
The studio apartment rooms exceeded all our expectations for size, comfort and fixtures & fittings. The fact that you can't park outside the rooms adds to the peace and quiet of the place. We did not use the restaurant but bread and croissants are available to order from reception at extrememely reasonable prices. We found nothing to dislike
Nicely designed interior (more than we expected and were pleased). Friendly and helpfull staff. Good value for money. Nice location. Was hard to find, it will be useful to have more signs on the way.
The cost of the room reflected the location and quality of the facility, Suitable for a budget stay in a family type trip. The location is out of the town of Amboise - so a car is needed to do any activities. The facility is unfinished, drains are open, footpaths not sealed, roads have potholes, Walkways to front door were not sealer, so the mud from outside finished uo inside. The furniture is pacrical, but poor quality. Privacy for each couple was a problem. Adjoining beedrooms not a good idea (noisy)
The apartment was very modern, very comfortable, very new and well equiped for self catering holidays. It is an ideal location for visiting the Castles of the Loire Valley, canoeing on the Loire or Cher rivers, or exploring by bicycle. The resort is not finished yet and therefore on-site facilities are, at present, very limited. However, the facilities of Amboise are only 3 to 5 minutes drive from the resort.
The apartment layout with quite well equipped kitchen was great. Quite comfortable and plenty of room. The location. It is a bit far from Amboise and is a little inconvenient if you want to nip into town. Also a little sparse, but obviously new, so will likely improve in facilities and layout.
Good for families. Apartments are amazing inside, everything you need is in them. The grounds are no way near completed yet - we read reviews saying work was underway but we thought the work would have been completed by now but it's no-where near complete yet.
Note that there is no restaurants at the hotel.
Quite good value/price ratio which makes all the bad sides look unimportant. New development, clean and new furniture. Reasonably sized rooms. Convenient location if you want to visit chateaux by driving. Kitchenette with microwave and dishwasher. Underdeveloped site (Oct 2010). Parking quite far from accommodation (from 300 to 500m). The apartment had a small kitchenette but there were absolutely no utensils or even a glass or cup for tea/coffee. I had to beg at the reception to lend two wine glasses which one would consider obligatory in a French hotel.
Very clean appartments with good services No English channels on the tv
It is a beautiful place to stay. I would go there again for sure. The soap smelled funny - for real.
Having a pool to cool off in and relax made the stay at this hotel enjoyable For what was on offer at breakfast we found poor in comparison to other hotels we stayed in and expensive at 10 euros per head.
We enjoyed our stay at the hotel. It was a particularly charming place and next time I shall definitely request Room 6 I found that everything met, or exceeded, my expectation
The room is well appointed. The beds are comfortable. The breakfast is great.
It is beautiful hotel...more like a B&B in terms of its charm, comfort, and peace and quiet. It has a wonderful garden area. There is also off-street parking protected behind locked gates at night. The staff was very welcoming and helpful in providing tourist advice. The Hotel is very close to shopping and tourist attractions including the historic châteaux. Couldn't recommend it more. There was nothing we didn't like about this hotel.
This is a truly charming hotel with staff who were friendly and helpful at all times.It was a great base for touring the Chateaux Nothing
Hotel de charme Extralarge bed not very comfortable. Relatively small breakfast room (for the size of the hotel).
The grounds were very picturesque and the staff were very helpful. It seemed like an ideal place to stay a few days to relax and soak in Amboise Our room did not afford much privacy as it faced on to the driveway and entrance.
lovely place. would stay there again.
- very clean, newly refurbished room - quiet, private park and garage - did'nt see facilities e.g. sauna as advertise - rather pricey for size of room
The location (Amboise) no
Very pleasant and clean hotel. Reception staff offered without prompting to store our bikes in their garage.
Most enjoyable stay, staff were pleasant and accomodating, secure parking a definate plus... wifi another plus. Would definitely stay again. Would have been nice if located closer to restaurants and shops.
room good wasnt as close to centre but easy 20min walk
Very comfortable beds, excellent breakfast, helpful staff, quiet location
Reception staff were very helpful and friendly, room extremely comfortable, clean and well designed Overpriced breakfast - said to be American, but only hot food was sausages and they had run out of scambled egg.
room comfort, quiet, access late at night without problem, friendly staff all rooms are no smoking. I like my freedom to do what I like in my own private hotel room
The management was very helpful to us in finding fuel for our car during a time when there was a problem obtaining it. We booked a room for three people even though there was on only two of us. It was just right.
Clean, fresh hotel in excellent location.
pleasant staff too far out of town with no bar or restuarant facilities, just like a travel lodge. 25 minute walk into town
location was good, the city and countryside great. the resturant was impressive--dinner was expensive but worth it and the service was very good. the breakfast was also very good. our room was in the old part of the hotel and was just ok. it needs to be updated. the walls between rooms are not very insulated for noise and made for a long night.
well appointed rooms restaurant v. expensive
first impression of room not that great after Les Artes however beds, bathroom and size was very good. The 36 restaurant was incredible. The only thing was the hairdryer needs to be upgraded.
Lovely room overlooking the river. Bags carried by reception. Prepared wine beautifully for social occasion. Dressing gowns and slippers great for relaxing and comfort. Pleasant staff. Cuisine superb. One reception staff outstanding for help and friendly approach. Bed very comfortable. One reception staff was rather aloof and business like. I felt I would have been treated in a more friendly manner if I had driven up in an expensive car. Need option of vegetables with meals....bunch of rocket for $7 bit steep even if the dressing was excellent.
the location and the views from our room the restaurant was very expensive
Great staff. Perfect location for visiting chateaus in Loire Valley (1/2 hour or less to Chenonceau, Chambord, Chiverny). Right next to Amboise Chateau. Wonderful restaurant. No elevator, though desk attendant insisted on carrying all luggage up several flights of stairs when we checked in.
Room was extremely quiet and comfortable; staff was very professional and helpful; convenient walk to town; The food in restaurant was excellent quality but very expensive.
The location was sublime as we could see Amboise Castle from our room and could walk to many little shops and restaurants in the town of Amboise, including Leonardo DaVinci's home and final resting place at the Castle.
Size of room No outward views
Beautiful, large rooms with lovely furnishings. Comfortable bed with very nice linens. Large bathroom with updated fixtures like double sinks, separate bathtub and shower.
Staff could not do enough and cuisine great although as only a set menu perhaps not everyones 1st choice but will definitely be returning in the future Having to leave
T ,he room was huge and the atmosphere was lovely. The restaurant is one of the best we have ever eaten at. You can walk from the hotel to a lot of places (Chateau, weekly market, Loire River, restaurants) Everyone there was very friendly. Nice grounds Although there is wireless there is not a computer available if you do not have your own. This made communication home difficult
The location in the center of Amboise was ideal, the hotel was very comfortable and well appointed, bed linen was excellent - high level of attention to detail
Beautifully maintained, comfortable and welcoming. Impressive location next to the castle and on the banks of the river. We will certainly return to spend more time with you and will also recommend you to our friends.
clean room with plenty of room and strong , consistent internet access
The hotel location is good and staff are so kind and friendly. The room is excellent atmosphore. No restaurant for dinner. Breakfast is a bit expensive, 12 Euro, but basic.
The room was absolutely fantastic (spacious, clean, confortable, quiet, etc.). The service was also amazing and the hotel delivers what it promisses. I strong recomend this hotel. The reception speaks a very good English and is ready to help the guests anytime. One of the best hotels I have ever stayed. Everything was perfect
our room and view were wonderful, so was the location the front desk attendant was a bit stuffy...but eventually warmed up.
everything a very relaxing break, hope to return, accommodation is fantastic, very friendly helpful staff we did not dislike anything but a restaurant would be nice.
The staff are very nice and helpful. The room we had is way too small, especially for a 4-star hotel. The breakfast is very poor (you hardly have anything to choose from) and is not worth 12 euros at all.
The reception was excellent and we felt welcome from the moment we arrived. The gentleman who showed us to the room explained everything to us and made a dinner reservation at a very nice restaurant. We also liked the parking facilities with the gates being locked overnight. Breakfast was also very good. It was difficult to spot the entrance when arriving from the east and we had trouble getting back round to it. A good restaurant for dinner in the hotel would have been an added bonus.
Fabulous location, great views, wonderful staff
location ,style hotel should have dinner
The welcome, the staff, the tranquility so close to the heart of the town, the elegance of the building
Location, location, location, with views of the Amboise Chateau and easy walking distance from the town Le Manoir Saint Thomas is perfectly located. There is safe parking in the grounds. The staff are delightful and the rooms nice. Bit pricey, but if you are happy to pay you will have a very nice stay.
We loved Le Manoir St. Thomas and would definitely recommend it to friends. It was lovely, the staff was wonderful and the location was great.
Very helpful people - I arrived very late due to flight delays and instructions were very provided for me very clearly.
Beautiful hotel very convenient to centre of Amboise. Style is of restored chateau so don't expect ultra modern facilities, but it fits in perfectly with the ambience of the Loire Valley. Residents' lounge delightful with free wifi. Staff very helpful. Breakfast OK. 170 Euro is perhaps a little overpriced and we have stayed in equally high standard accommodation in Amboise for a bit less. However, this is a minor complaint and we would certainly consider staying there again.
Had a great room up top, overlooking the garden, comfortable and good bathroom all in a house built in the twelfth century. There was also a nice sitting room downstairs with open fireplace. The service was great, enthusiastic and helpful which added to our experience.
Staff was incredibly nice and helpful. Accomodations were very comfortable and clean. Amenities were second to none.
The manor is historic and very charming, but also has modern touches to make it comfortable. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was simple, but lovely.
The building and grounds are simply lovely. Our room was incredibly spacious, comfortable and well appointed with a large and luxurious bathroom. The desk workers were helpful, cordial, knowedgeable and spoke English fluently. We liked Alla in paricular, as she is simply charming. We had hoped to have dinner in their highly-recommended restaurant, but after September 30th it was no longer open.
The location was excellent, easy walking to the chateau, restaurants, shopping. Staff were very helpful and attentive, nice grounds to enjoy a glass of wine, The room was very comfortable and clean.
Location is fantastic, and the hotel staff friendly and helpful
Style of the hotel especially the bedroom. The availabilty of the garage eas a bonusu No
Location is central: close to the railway station, but far enough not to hear and see those people grouping near the station. Also very close to tourist office, old town and Hotel de Ville (just in front). The room was great - spacious, with a comfortable sofa in front of tv, a desk, enough room to even have a morning gymnastics)). It was very quiet which is definitely a plus! Beautiful lobby. The price af breakfast 18 euros is too high.
Centrally located and very pleasant surroundings
Staff - very friendly and helpful
The location was just where we needed to be. The front desk was very professional and helpful.
Very easy to find - great location. Very nice staff.
The hotel room is newly renovated. It located very close to the Train Station (within 10 minutes walk) and the shopping centre (within 3 minutes walk) of Tours.
Great staff. Great location. Seems to be run down and needs a face-lift internally.
The hotel is right in the centre of Tours so very convenient for sight-seeing, restaurants and shopping. It is also close to the train and bus stations. It was clean and comfortable. Parking is very limited - there is a public carpark nearby but it was very full and we were lucky to get a space. The room we had was comfortable but being at the top of the hotel, it was dark with only one small window - a draw back on a sunny day.
Superb staff - some of the friendliest I´ve encountered. Breakfast finished at 10; restaurant closed on sundays (!)
Exquisite room in a private house, private gardens, owner extremely helpful, great breakfast
The common sitting room and the breakfast one took in it were both lovely. The grounds are also very well kept up, and the pool looked inviting. The location is excellent, well within walking distance of everything. The hostess is charming. We actually stayed longer for breakfast than we intended on our final day before leaving for Paris since it was so comfortable there, and we were engaged in wonderful conversation with another couple from the us. There is also convenient parking on the premises. This is a b&b with three apartments. The one we stayed in was really for one person: the double-bed, shower, toilet and sink were in one small room with a small frosted glass divider separating the bed from the toilet and sink. The shower was open to the room. It helps if you have to have lived together for 37 years, as we have, to agree to this set-up, and still give it the positive rating that I did. If you don't like showering or going to the toilet in front of someone don't stay in this room. We did see one of the other apartments and it was much larger and lovely. Our hostess did offer to let us look elsewhere in the city for another apartment when we arrived, but we were tired, it was late, and she was charming and the rest of the b&b was very comfortable, so we stayed.
friendly proprietor who took trouble to ensure we were comfortable, swimming pool to ourselves, very nice large room, good breakfast, convenient location It was quite pricey even allowing for unfavourable £:euro ratio
The owners had a nice balance of being nice and helpful, but not invasive. I felt as if I was at home. It was very relaxing and quiet. Having only 3 rooms is nice...there weren't too many people coming in and out so it was more private. They have a private courtyard in the back which was very pretty. I definitely recommend the hotel. The owners are very sweet people and very good hostesses. They didn't have central air but they had a fan. However, I found that none of the hotels I stayed in in Amboise, Saumur and Paris had central air so just be prepared.
This was the best stay during our entire trip to France. We would go back in an instant! The room was huge and magnificent with french doors to a beautiful garden with a swimming pool. The bathroom was more or a spa with a tub, shower with numerous jets, two sinks, and private toilet. Big beautiful towels and bathrobes were set out for us. The petit dejeuner was beautifully presented and our hostess was absolutely divine. As a bonus we had a private parking spot in a garage. We couldn't ask for anything more! Everything was wonderful.
Character of the hotel in this old castle. Buffet breakfast a bit expensive for array of choices.
Ambiente Old equipment
Very nice staff and very clean in a central location Sunday and Monday evenings very noisy outside the hotel due to the open air resteraunts outside, I had a hard time sleeping until 2 A.M. when it quieted down.
Our visit was for just one night. But the hotel was quite and in a perfect country side location N/A
Location. Evening meal excellent though overpriced. Breakfast excellent and also overpriced. A very small lounge area inadequate when weather is not hot enough to be outside.
We thought the setting was charming and very comfortable. The dinner we had was very good. We were disappointed it was as far from town as it was. We prefer to walk everywhere but we did drive into town each day.
The course dinner is excellent with decent service. The room is rather small.
The dining experience at the Chateau Seemed to be a lack of staff attentiveness since our last stay at the chateau 3 years ago.
The staff were friendly and helpful and the chateau was beautiful
Too expensive for what was on offer.
Everything. Truly outstanding and memorable. Oustanding food, charming staff. Just perfect
Love the location - smack dab in the center of town, right below Amboise Chateau, and within a few steps of restaurants and shops...all the conveniences and allure about this place! Parking was a little tough - lucky to find street parking! The lobby decor was a little outdated/eclectic.
Room was very good. Location was perfect. We found the dinner selection and price to not be up to our expectations. We ended up going into Amboise and finding very nice dinner places with friendlier staff and better value
The dinner was excellent, and well served. The site and surroundings were lovely. There was no ac available in our room. In spite of what the proprietress said, we definitely needed it . Our wireless computer would not work in the room. Only 2 bath towels were provided for both room and pool. Fruit salad at breakfast was from a can.
Very relaxing location, in the heart of the Loire valley Internet does not work in the room because of the trees!!!
the place very nice and quite wonderful. restaurant fantastic the w.c. outside the bath. no bidet . Stairs dangereus. Pool very very little. breakfast a little poor
It's a long way out of the town of Amboise, so you need a car which I didn't have.
clean and very friendly , helpful staff
The hotel staff were awesome, the breakfast was good, and the room was roomy, clean, and comfortable. The location is about a 20 minute walk (mostly uphill) from town and taxis are scarce or nonexistent.
Very comfortable bed, excellent sofa bed for children, buffet breakfast, pool and mini golf. Location also very good - walking distance to Amboise centre
Nice clean modern hotel Cost of drinks very dear in comparison to Ireland
the room was nice.
The food and bar operations were poorly run with a very disappointing product
Views and proximity to Amboise. Helpful staff None
Air conditioning in room - wifi in room - trolley for luggage
Beautiful setting no
A bit off center with a nice view of the Amboise castle. Very friendly and helpful staff. We spent one week there and enjoyed the region and hotel so much that we'll return next year. The swimming pool should be heated up
Very familiar. Very well equiped. Staff very friendly. Very good breakfeast.
The chlidren liked the pool, the rooms were clean and comfrotable
The staff was very helpful and pleasant. It's a great location at a low rate. It's no frills, but has good basic amenities including free wireless internet (note that it is not encrypted if this is important to you). Definitely a "good buy" for its location in central Amboise near the Chateau.
central position and helpful staff pretty basic!
visiting Chenonceau chateau parking was not easy
Friendly welcome, clean facilities, good service, proximity to points of interest; wifi connection that actually works, willingness to help with little problems Could be a problem for older travellers carrying bags up and down stairs as there is no lift but I am sure that staff would provide assistance if required.
Very good location. The girl at reception is very helpful - deal with her if you can (as per other comments). Compact basic rooms. Good for exploring Amboise. The free parking is about 300 metres away and if it's full then too bad. To access wifi you have to agree to some 'anti terrorism' conditions (you agree that your internet can be monitored) and then the net times-out after 1 hour.
Location Only 2 power points in the room
Friendly and helpfull staff. Good breakfast. Great location. No-parking space.There wasn´t a lift although it wasn´t a problem for us
The location of value for money of this hotel are unbeatable. The bathroom was a bit cold as there was no heater in the bathroom.
Great Location. Right in the middle of Amboise. Only one power point in the whole room (including bathroom), and the TV was plugged into that single point. Makes it difficult to use the internet, dry your hair, charge your batteries. Paid parking in the street.
Very helpful person on the reception when we arrived. Close to centre of town. Good value for money for a one night stay. Having to park the car some distance away and not being sure how safe it would be left there over night.
Had a kitchen area that was nicely equipped. Bed was comfortable.
Excellent welcome from helpful owner. Lovely location and facilities. Difficult to find
Situation, kitchen, parking, price for three person not a major building
Our studio looked like it was newly built, and was very nicely renovated with tasteful furnishings. It was very close to the main attractions in the town. There was nothing we didn't like.
We had a studio apartment and it was great. Excellent to have a fridge and a few utensils. Staff are excellent and the whole experience was wonderful. Benoit did a great job of the food so make sure to try out their new restaurant, L'Alliance in Amboise. Bed was lumpy and the pillows were really bad - flat as a pancake! Despite that it really is a wonderful hotel in a great location and would stay there again!
Rooms are in fact small apartments, allowing you enjoy more freely of your vacations. Location is quite good, at walking distance from the centre.
Quiet place, lovely large rooms, very friendly personnel, excellent restaurant. Everything was perfect.
Good overall quality of food and local Difficult to find from description on documents downloaded.
Very comfortable. Excellent food. Ambiance good. Prices a bit on high side. Breakfast at €15/pp is a little steep.
Comfort, quality yet very welcoming. We regretted not having a meal in the restaurant having already arranged to have a meal with the family in Auberge de bon labourer at Chenonceau. \No air conditioning or opneable windows in the room but felt safe enough to leave our door open to let in some fresh air.
Beautiful location, Excellent hosts and a superbly developed hotel in a peaceful setting. First class chef for those who enjoy nouvelle cuisine. Even allowing for the exchange rate, wine was rather expensive
Rooms were beautiful and large! Enjoyed a good soak in the deep tub too! We enjoyed a relaxing night here while visiting chateaus in the area! The staff couldn't have been nicer!! My only complaint would be it's a bit hard to find.

White Cycladic houses sitting on sheer and craggy cliffs that rise above a turquoise sea – it’s hard not to fall in love with sun-kissed Santorini. Sitting at the cusp of the Aegean Sea and the Sea of Crete, this Greek hideaway is a playground for everything hedonistic. After all, Santorini is the land of the sexy and there’s a lot of skin showing, and all for a good purpose. What’s more, it definitely adds to the island’s sultry vibe. If that wasn’t enough, Santorini is incredibly gay-friendly and the number of gay hotels in Santorini Greece is through the roof. The gay scene might not be much and the island slightly calmer than its rambunctious neighbor Mykonos. Despite that, the island is sultry and gay-friendly to boot. It even has a gay-popular nudist beach, Vlychada which is very easy to access as well.
Beyond the gay scene, there’s so much more to explore on this gorgeous island, which is one of the Most Beautiful Greek Islands. For one, it’s home to a submerged volcano and caldera, which is amongst the World’s Most Incredible Cliffs. The island is also one of the Most Colorful Places On Earth, as is evidenced by the lush foliage, black cliffs, turquoise waters – and the incredibly vibrant towns. If that wasn’t enough, the island is one of the Best Luxurious Honeymoon Destinations in the world – and has been for a long time. It’s only fitting then that if you’re looking for a sexy and sultry sun-kissed gay vacation, then Santorini is the place to be. To that end, here are the top 11 gay friendly hotels in Santorini Greece.

Dioskouri Art Villas
Located in southeast Santorini, Dioskouri Art Villas is one of the chicest gay hotels in Santorini. Tucked in the seaside town of Kamari, the hotel’s beige and blue exterior with white trimmings stands out against the turquoise of the Aegean Sea. Choose from a host of large suite-like rooms, all of which come with kitchenettes for cooking romantic meals and small dining areas as well. Large bedrooms with plush beds and modern, chic bathrooms complete the digs. Everywhere, you can see the influences of traditional Greek architecture in the form of arches in the doorways. You’ll especially love the cozy walk-in shower areas, which are large enough for two people. In fact, some suites even come with deep-soaking tubs, perfect if you’re on your honeymoon.
Outside the rooms, the divine outdoor pool forms the epicenter of the hotel. It’s a tranquil and quieter alternative to Kamari beach. After a refreshing dip, enjoy snacks and beverages at your perch under the umbrella. What’s more, the snack bar even offers great cocktails and light meals throughout the day. The best bit is the rich buffet breakfast that’s served every day in the dining room. Post that, you can head out to the beach or exploring the island.
Nestled in the heart of Kamari is one of the most unique gay friendly hotels in Santorini Greece, Santellini Hotel. Since Kamari is often overlooked due to the presence of Thera, it’s decidedly less crowded, which gay travelers who want to stay award from crowds will love. The classic blue-and-white exterior is typically Santorini, which classic designs such as arches and shutter windows. Rooms and suites have simple designs in color schemes of pink, grey, and blue. Fresh flowers, feature walls, huge windows, and shaded patios overlooking the pool add to the romantic ambiance. Immaculate and modern bathrooms round up the place.
The rest of the hotel is similarly impressive, especially the huge outdoor pool and sun terrace that is its beating heart. Begin your day with a refreshing swim and a lounge on the sunbeds while sipping cocktails. Post a swim, head to the spa for a relaxing couples massage, which can you even convert into an in-room one. The sandy Kamari Beach is a hop, skip, jump away. Finally, the hotel offers a delicious continental breakfast, despite not having a restaurant on-site.
Are you in Santorini for your honeymoon? Then head to one of the Best Hotels in Santorini For Honeymoon, Katikies Hotel. What’s more, it also happens to be one of the most beautiful gay hotels in Santorini. Located close to the island’s northern tip in Oia, this cliffside hotel offers spectacular views of the turquoise waters of the Aegean Sea. All whitewashed rooms at this hotel boast private terraces with views across the caldera. Besides all the usual mod-cons, you’ll also find fridges, minibars, and even small wine cellars. So, this hotel is perfect for a staycation in Santorini too! Bathrooms are mesmerizingly all-white with wooden vanities and sexy fittings and bath products. Go for the suites with deep-soaking bathtubs, and we’re sure you’ll never leave the hotel!
Begin your day with a fabulous American breakfast with champagne every morning right in the comfort of your private terrace. The rest of the hotel is similarly decadent; it has two infinity pools and a hot tub with some of the most breathtaking views in all of Santorini. Moreover, two on-site restaurants are perfect for date night, in case you don’t want to head to the town. It’s no wonder that this hotel is often called one of the World’s Most Unusual Hotels!
Gay travelers who want to stay away from and yet close to the bustle of Fira will love Anteliz Suites. One of the most intimate gay friendly hotels in Santorini Greece, this hotel is a modern take on Santorini’s iconic Cycladic architecture. So, rooms are traditionally whitewashed, and yet boast all-marble floors and high ceilings like contemporary digs. At the same time, you’ll find all the modern touches you’d expect from an upscale hotel today, such as iPod docking stations and huge flatscreen TVs. What’s more, you’ll even find decadent touches such as minibars and plush beds with pillowtop menus. The bathrooms, however, are the sexiest feature. They’re decked out in dark and sensual shades such as carmine, teal, and black marble. Rain showers and bathtubs add to the erotic vibe, making it the perfect place to indulge in romance.
You’ll love the rest of the hotel too, which begins the day by serving hearty breakfasts on the expansive sun terrace. The heavenly outdoor pool lies right beside and enjoys mesmerizing views of the caldera. There’s even a hydromassage bath right next to it for a relaxing soak after a swim. Finally, the staff assists you with everything from massage treatments and boat trips to wine tastings.
Altana Heritage Suites
Gay travelers who love their decadence and luxury to be topped with a dollop of history and character will love Altana Heritage Suites. One of the most charming gay hotels in Santorini, this heritage hotel sits in an envious location right next to Skaros Rock in the village of Imerovigli. The hotel offers million-dollar views of the Aegean, but that’s not all. It sits in a restored 18th-century structure, making for characterful digs. The light-filled interiors perfectly complement the decadent exteriors, which include divine plunge pools set in vast private terraces. Mod-cons such as minibars, coffeemakers, and swish bathrooms with slippers and bathrobes means that you have all essentials for a romantic staycation.
Begin your wonderful day with a hearty homemade breakfast at the on-site cafe. Besides the plunge pools in the rooms, there’s a huge outdoor swimming pool too with mesmerizing views of the ocean. During the day, laze on the sunbeds or chaise lounges by the pool, drink cocktails, and read books from the private libraries in the rooms.
Phos The Boutique
Yet another of the best gay friendly hotels in Santorini Greece is Phos the Boutique, which lies right at the western edge of Santorini in Akrotiri. Nestled right above Akra Aspronisi peninsula, it offers unobstructed views of the caldera and the Sea of Crete. The boutique resort offers the ultimate in amenities, which discerning gay travelers who love opulence will absolutely adore. Choose from a bevy of king-sized suites and villas, all of which come with private terraces overlooking the sea. But, that’s not all. The terraces also have heated infinity pools with hydrotherapy jets and sun loungers by the side. Even the interiors are no less, perfectly blending the traditional design with modern and tropical touches. Plush beds, fluffy robes, organic toiletries and swanky mod-cons complete the digs.
The rest of the hotel is similarly impressive. A delectable à la carte breakfast can be enjoyed in privacy of your room, right by the pool. Moreover, the restaurant serves delectable Mediterreanean fare for lunches and dinners. If that wasn’t enough, delicious snacks and cocktails are served throughout the day. The best bit is the that you can book revitalizing wellness and spa massages or body treatments right on the sun terraces.
Aspaki by Art Maisons
One of the most luxurious gay hotels in Santorini is the Instagrammable Aspaki by Art Maisons. The hotel’s photos are perhaps used the most to show what a possibly luxurious and hedonistic Greek holiday looks like. Imagine a Cycladic architectural tunnel filled with water leading out to an infinity pool overlooking the Aegean Sea – that’s what this hotel looks like. Barrel vault ceilings and whitewashed stone walls add to the sultry character of the rooms and suites, no two of which are alike. Moreover, there are just seven suites, which add to the intimate and exclusive vibe of the hotel. Besides all contemporary mod-cons, they all come with balconies with mesmerizing sea views. Furthermore, they all have private heated pools or private jacuzzis, or both! Oh, and both the pools and jacuzzis are built into hand-carved caves in the cliffside. Sigh.
Service is absolutely top-notch here, and you have access to the full-sized, heated outdoor pool that forms the centerpiece of the rest of the hotel. Thanks to the poolside bar service, you can rest on your perch all day long and keep sipping on cocktails with your significant other. Post a swim, indulge in a Mediterranean meal at the adjacent restaurant. After exploring Oia’s attractions and sights, return to the hotel and enjoy light meals, snacks, and sundowners at the bar.
Andronis Boutique Hotel
Andronis Boutique Hotel is one of the most minimalist gay friendly hotels in Santorini Greece. Located smack dab in the heart of Oia, the hotel complements its minimalist stylings perfectly with feature pieces of decor and wooden furniture. Think naturalistic curving ceilings, traditional island window shutters, etc. Plus, the gorgeous whitewashed hotel offers incredible views over the caldera from every nook and cranny. Even the digs here are decadent to boot. All units at this all-suite property have been hand-carved into the cliffside, a la traditional Santorinian caves. What’s more, each suite has its own plunge pool or jacuzzi, besides the two shared pools at the hotel. Comfy chairs, tables, and sunbeds, Tempur-Pedic beds, and swanky mod-cons such as minibars and coffee machines make up the rest of the place.
What’s special about this hotel is that it houses what is Oia’s first restaurant, Lauda. Opened in 1971, it’s the island’s oldest restaurant and even had its first telephone at that time. Choose to swim in and lounge at one of the two pools, one of which is cool and the other one is heated. If you tire of the poolside views, which we don’t think will happen, the hotel also offers a slew of other amenities. Think wine-tasting sessions, yoga classes, and cooking lessons. It’s no wonder that this is one of the Best Hotels in Santorini.
Volcano View by Caldera Collection
Going one better than all of the above is Volcano View by Caldera Collection, one of the most unique gay hotels in Santorini. Located high above Fira, it offers breathtaking views of the town, the caldera, and the Sea of Crete. Gay travelers who simply want to unwind will love staying here. Every room and suite here has a private terrace or a balcony that overlooks the volcano and the sea. For couples who’re looking for privacy, go for one of the seven secluded villas. Not only do they come with their own terrace space, but each of those terraces even has a private plunge pool. On the inside, the rooms are utterly modern with Greek architecture enhancing their beauty. The bathrooms are especially sexy and some even have bathtubs that have been carved naturally from the rock – talk about luxury!
The hotel is special in more ways than one. For one, it has not one or two but three different pools, all of which are perfectly positioned to overlook the sea to catch those gorgeous Greek sunsets. They’re peppered with sunbeds and are the perfect place to laze around during the day and soak up the Greek sun. Dig into delectable meals at the restaurant, which is also a lovely place to watch sunsets with a sundowner in hand. Begin your day with a wonderful Greek breakfast, after which you can amble down the cobblestone streets and explore the town.
Lilium Santorini Villa
The gorgeous Lilium Santorini Villa is one of the most charming gay friendly hotels in Santorini Greece. Located a mere five-minute drive from Fira, the villa hotel sits right on the edge of Santorini’s caldera. So, it’s also close to most of the Top Things To Do In Santorini. Thus, it boasts some of the most gorgeous views over the Sea of Crete and the Aegean Seas, as well as the peak of Tholos Naftilos. Villas are clad in all-white, with the dark floors providing the pop of color. and, of course, there’s the blue of the sea that can be seen from the private balcony of each villa. Besides minibars and plush beds, they all also have serene, all-white bathrooms. Bespoke bath products offer a touch of indulgence.
The rest of the hotel is also very impressive, right from the infinity pool to the restaurant that serves Mediterranean fare. Take in the stunning panoramas from the sun loungers at the infinity pool while sipping on craft cocktails from the bar. After a swim and a lounge, head for a hearty lunch at the restaurant, which also boasts gorgeous sea views.
LGBTQ travelers who love rustic luxury will love Esperas, one of the finest gay hotels in Santorini. The hotel is literally carved into the caldera-facing cliffside and offers stupendous views of the sea. Choose from a bevy of tasteful, Cycladic-style units which are divided into studios, cave homes, and honeymoon suites. Notwithstanding what you choose, they all have jaw-dropping views of the Aegean from their private terraces. Greek architecture medls seamlessly with mod-cons such as plush beds and coffeemakers. The cave-carved bathrooms give off a primal feeling, with the dark-walled walk-in showers being incredibly sexy – and large enough for two, might we add.
The rest of the hotel is equally picture-perfect, especially the stunning infinity pool that offfers unbeatable views of Santorini and the sea. After a refreshing swim, lounge on your perch and sip on cocktails from the pool bar. You can even enjoy light snacks such as healthy wraps if you’re going to stay by the pool longer. After a round of sundowners at sunset, dine by the starlight in the restaurant, which boasts an intimate ambiance and million-dollar sea views. It’s no wonder that his gay friendly Santorini hotel occupies the top spot.
Best Gay Neighborhoods in Santorini
Santorini doesn’t have a gay scene as such, but gay travelers shouldn’t be discouraged. Overall, the island is not a partying or clubbing destination – that’s Mykonos. That said, most of the best bars in Santorini, which are mainly lie in the western town of Thera (a.k.a. Fira and Chora) are gay-friendly. What’s more, Santorini even has a gay beach that lies on the southern side called Vlychada Beach. It’s currently the most popular and hottest “gay” beach on the island. It’s followed by Koloumbos and Exomitis Beaches, both of which have gay-friendly attitudes.
On the whole, acceptance on the island is very high, especially for couples. Since Santorini is such a romantic destination, single gay travelers might have to cruise around to meet someone. That said, whether you’re here to hook up or dial up the romance on your relationship, Santorini and its gay hotels are ideal.
Best Gay Bars / Clubs in Santorini
- Theros Wave Bar: Voted one of the Mediterranean’s best beach bars, the gay-friendly Theros lies on the gay-friendly Vlychada beach. What’s more, it’s also one of the most popular wedding destinations on the island. What’s more, the bar is also known for the amazing parties it throws, which you and your partner can enjoy. Drink cocktails and enjoy delicious Greek cuisine while relaxing on the gay nudist beach.
- Tropical Bar Santorini: Located right on the stairs in Thera, this gay-friendly bar is one of the best spots to enjoy date night on the island. It boasts amazing views of the Sea of Crete, especially when you grab a table on the balcony. A lilting ambiance aside, great music, lip-smacking food, and happy hour discounts make it an excellent place to enjoy more than once.
Best Gay Saunas in Santorini
Despite all its gay-friendliness, Santorini doesn’t have a gay sauna – yet. But, it does have gay beaches and gay hotels that have saunas and jacuzzis, such as Aspaki Hotel. And of course, we’re hoping that a gay sauna makes its appearance on the island soon!
Best Gay Events/Shows/Tours in Santorini
- Gaily Tour in Santorini: Helmed by a gay/lesbian tour guide, explore the amazing towns and sights of the island. Explore prehistoric settlements, discover frescoes, and experience the charms of the amazing towns such as Oia and Thera on this gay-friendly tour. The tour is two hours long and takes place in a minibus or car, depending on the number of people.

This review is long overdue!
I first stayed at TwentyTwo in November 2010 for several days. I was travelling alone and had never been to Cape Town before. I booked the hotel based on the strength of the reviews on this site and was not disappointed.
Dominic and Allan were incredible hosts and took the time to make recommendations and reservations for me, book a flight and even teach me to iron a shirt!
This past May, my fiancee and I decided to take my parents from Canada to Cape Town and I didn't hesitate to book two rooms at TwentyTwo! Another great stay - nothing had changed since my initial visit in 2010, which was a very good thing!
The rooms are well appointed, comfortable and very clean. What really makes this place however is the personal attention Dominic and Allan show in every guest. They aren't obtrusive and give guest space, but if you need them, they're there and happy to help!
Keep up the good work guys - looking forward to my next visit!More

Plenty room and check in was a breeze. Nice little get away.
Mike W.Dec 2021
The property was exactly as described and extremely well taken care. We had a great time and would use the service and the location again.
MARIA F.Oct 2021
The cabin was incredible. Spotless, comfortable, had all of the amenities you could think of... and the view was amazing. It was having two houses in one. We enjoyed the hot tub, and watching the deer from it was the best. Having the washer and dryer on site was very convenient. The whole neighborhood was gorgeous. Lots to do within the same community of Bent Tree. The staff at Vacasa was very helpful, and very responsive.
The parking driveway is a bit steep, but we were in a 20 Camry and had no issues.
Can't wait to come back!

- About us
Green Island, Qld
Green Island was the setting for an innocent pre-marital holiday for Joe Harman and Jean Paget in Nevil Shute's novel A Town Like Alice.
The edges of the island are either compacted coral or rather beautiful coral/sand beaches. The interior is predominantly rainforest.
The resort takes up only 12 per cent of the total island so, remarkably, there are still plenty of places where people can escape.
Activities include swimming, snorkelling and bushwalking. The resort caters as much for day trippers as for regular guests.
