Hi, I'll be in Santorini for 5 nights in June. Which part is best recommended for honeymoon? Fira, Oia or Akrotiri? We are looking for nice hotel with a view. Anyone could help? =)
Hi
We stayed at Imorovegli, which is between the two other areas, and within walking distance of Fira (15mins) and possinly Oia if you are feeling energetic. Tne walks are lovely because the scenery is so great.
We stayed at Irini Villas, which was perfect, and has the best island views
Have a look at my review here:

Yes I can vouch for Irinis villas - i stayed at the owners other cheaper hotel in the street behind the main part of Fira but took note of the lovely spot of her advertised Irinis villas was in when walked past.
Its all quite close, all beautiful and after the first couple of days Id recommend to get a car and just drive around the other beautiful parts of the island

Fira is the island's social/commercial center with more shops, galleries, restaurants, clubs and bars than anywhere else on the island. It's also where all the cruise ship passengers come ashore so it gets really crowded.
Firostefani is just 15 minutes' walk from Fira but it's quiet.
Oia is the most beautiful and romantic village with lots of shops, galleries and restaurants, but there are only a few mellow bars and cafes for nightlife. Oia is 7 miles from Fira on the north end of the island.
Akrotiri is fairly isolated and there are very few shops and restaurants there. You'll need a rental car or scooter for maximum mobility if you stay there. It's also about 7 miles from Fira on the south end of the island.

I forgot: If you want hotel recommendations tell me which village you prefer and what your maximum daily room budget will be, in EURO.

Lee is an expert about Santorini, follow his suggestions.
but check also lynnehamman suggestion, it seems she stayed in a hotel with great view, its located on nice spot (at Imerovigli, not really far from Fira) and on the low price range for the area.

If you like quiet and less people choose Oia. If you want to feel people around you choose a romantic hotel just outside Fira.Firostefani Imerovigli....I prefer Oia because is more elegant but you need to have transportation.

September weather is excellent, mellow and warm but not hot. The sea is perfect for swimming as it has been warming up... more
I would recommend 2 nights at Naxos Island, then 2 nights in Santorini. You will find plenty of company, no worries... more
