Letting in Santorini

Rules and licensing

AMA registration is required. Santorini also has strict building and planning controls on the caldera rim, which limit new supply.

Tourist tax

Per-night levy, banded by accommodation type, higher in peak season.

How the year is shaped

The most extreme seasonality of any destination here. May to September carries essentially the whole year; many properties simply close from November to March.

Who books here

Couples and honeymooners paying a large premium for a caldera view. Without one, the property competes in an entirely different market.

Short-term rental rules change often and can differ by district, and building or condominium rules may restrict letting regardless of what the city permits. Treat this as orientation, not legal advice, and confirm the current position with the local authority before letting.
