Health & Safety standards

BROWSE OUR HEALTH AND SAFETY STANDARDS

our approach places safety first

At Carpe Diem Santorini, our utmost priority is the safety and well-being of our guests and team members.

In response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we have developed our safety policy based on the guidelines of the Greek government, the World Health Organization (WHO), the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Our COVID-19 Policy is accredited with the Health First certification which ensures that the hotel is implementing the national guidelines for COVID-19 prevention throughout its operation, as announced by the Greek government. 

The rigorous protocols combined with the property layout create an ideal setting for a safe and relaxing stay; each of our 10 suites is accessed separately through wide outdoor walkways and is equipped with its own private pool and terrace. Meanwhile, our common areas are airy, with plenty of outdoor space to dine at and relax. 

Health First

Important | COVID-19 testing: Both rapid and PCR tests are available upon request. For more information, please contact our team.
