LXR Hotels & Resorts Reopens Sandblu Santorini

Sandblu Santorini, which reopened April 8th, offers guests an intimate property near the black-sand shoreline of Kamari. Cycladic heritage is at the heart of the hotel’s design, with whitewashed walls, relaxing coastal hues and volcanic stone details that celebrate the island’s historic architecture and life near the Aegean Sea. 

The hotel includes 36 rooms, 27 suites and three villas adorned in the colors of Santorini’s shores and sky with natural wood accents. All rooms have private terraces, allowing guests to effortlessly embrace the natural beauty surrounding them. Many of the rooms also feature private pools. 

“Sandblu is the Santorini most travellers hope to stumble into – quiet, design-led, and deeply local,” said Feisal Jaffer, global head, LXR Hotels & Resorts. “It is an ideal expression of LXR: a refined base for personal discovery that brings you closer to the island’s people, culture, and hidden gems. Since launching in 2018, LXR has thoughtfully focused on sophisticated global travellers seeking meaningful experiences, distinctive design, and bespoke personalized service. As we continue to curate our European growth, Sandblu Santorini serves as an ideal introduction to our brand, inviting guests to connect deeply with the island’s unique character and the people who bring it to life.”

Luxury Hospitality & Dining Experiences

Local tradition influences the menus at the Sandblu restaurants – including Greek baked goods, modern Greek and Mediterranean cuisine incorporating fresh-caught seafood and Santorini’s famous volcanic-grown wines. Mornings are best spent in the comfort of Stari Bakery, which offers warm pastries, homemade breads, refreshing drinks and artisanal coffee. Guests can enjoy all-day dining at Plateia, which serves a Mediterranean menu from morning through late night paired with serene views of the infinity pool and ocean. At Aroma, guests can choose from 300 labels of local and international wine vintages and thoughtfully selected small dishes. Those seeking a fine dining experience should check out Nectar, where locally-sourced ingredients are prepared thoughtfully by Executive Chef Panagiotis Boufis, Chef Thimios Kola and their team. 

“At Sandblu we’re deeply passionate about luxury hospitality that is emotionally resonant, thoughtfully curated, and effortlessly elevated,” said Leonidas Anagnostou, general manager, Sandblu Santorini, LXR Hotels & Resorts. “For 2026 we are excited for another year of creating unforgettable guest experiences, continuing to create a space where guests can connect with themselves, stop, breathe and leave feeling restored and refreshed.”
