Santorini Infinity Pool

We are heading to Santorini on a cruise in September. We are looking for a hotel that we could have a drink at, that has an infinity pool.
Any suggestions?

Atlantis Villas no longer exists...it's now called Kirini.

Also check Perivolas Hotel and Katikies Hotel in Oia.

I never heard of an "infinity pool" until you brought it up. Then I did a Google image search and.....

Way cool. I never know that was the term for those. And I doubt I'll ever get the chance to actually go in one.

I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for. Unless you're a guest at these hotels, I doubt they'll let you use the pool, so you just want to have a drink overlooking the pool? Anway, if it helps, we stayed at Perivolas last July. However, the infinity pool was a disappointment. It's tiny compared to what it looks like on the hotel's website.

Thanks for the info - so from Weadles reply, I guess the hotels are not open to the public for meals, drinks etc? We don't necessarily need to use the pool, I just want to see the view and experience it. (take it off my "list of things to do&quot

If there's a restaurant or bar on the premises I sincerely doubt that they'd turn you away.

If you find the perfect place, just e-mail the hotel and ask if the bar and/or restaurant are open to the public or just guests.

Katikies in Oia would be perfect. Great infinity pool and right near a lounge. I don't know if people who aren't guests would be served. I'm pretty sure that a group wouldn't be allowed but perhaps if there are only two of you.....better email them directly and ask.

I agree with Brotherleelove2004 that a restaurant or bar probably won't turn you away. I was really addressing whether or not the hotel would let you use the pool if you're not a guest.Seems doubtful to me, but you can check.

Thanks for all the suggestions. We have contacted a couple of places and they state their restaurants are for guests staying at the hotel. We think we might try after arriving in Santorini...dress nice etc.
Thanks.
