About Sandblu Santorini, LXR Hotels & Resorts
- The resort's wellness program centers on Aurora Spa and the Nous & Soma fitness center, alongside a children's club called Bala.

History
Sandblu Santorini opened in 2026 and is positioned by Hilton as LXR Hotels & Resorts’ first property in Greece. Hilton’s opening coverage describes it as a new 66-room luxury retreat set into the Santorini landscape, combining rooms, suites, and private villas with pools in a design-led escape. The resort’s own materials emphasize a Cycladic-inspired sanctuary with modern-chic accommodations, spa and wellness facilities, and multiple dining venues. It is notable for bringing Hilton’s LXR flag to Santorini and for its quiet, secluded setting near Ancient Thira and Kamari.
The setting
The resort sits at the foot of Thira Mountain near Ancient Thira, above Kamari on Santorini’s eastern side. Hilton and Sandblu describe the location as close to the ancient site and the black-sand beach, giving the property both historic and volcanic-landscape context.
