Restaurante Santorini, Fuengirola: My Review

As some of you may know, I have spent 6.5 years living on the beautiful island of Cyprus.

Ever since I moved to Spain, I have been dreaming about their fresh village salads, feta cheese, fresh olives and dip selections with freshly toasted pitta bread. It sounds simple, but the ingredients are what makes simple food absolutely delicious.

I am happy to report I have found a local place, where you can experience a bit of Cyprus on your plate too!

Restaurante Santorini is tucked away between other restaurants next to the Paseo Maritimo, at the ground floor of an appartment block.

Don’t let yourself judge the book by its cover – even though it looks similar to the rest of the restaurants on the main strip, this one is not a tourist trap like most of the rest.

The menu is quite simple and full of Greek staple dishes, many of which I recognize from Cyprus (and the surpsing addition of pizza menu which was welcomed by my son!).

We have now visited twice, and each time ordered salads with dip selection, and also tried their Pil Pil prawns and feta with beetroot salad. If you ever want to taste a proper Greek salad, you have to come to this place!

The dips, salads and everything we tasted was absolutely delicious, served by a friendly staff! We have not tasted anything from the meaty menu (I leave that to my husband), but from the reviews online it seems like those menu options also get glowing reviews.

If you fancy yourself a bit of a change of cuisine, give this place a try! I will be happy to report on more dishes once I return for another dose of fresh Greek cooking.

Southern Spain Travel Planning Guide

Is it safe to drive in Spain?

YES! The roads in Southern Spain are generally in very good condition, with modern highways connecting the biggest cities. To rent a car, I highly recommend Discover Cars, which will get you the best deals on your car rental for your trip.

WHAT IF I DON’T WANT TO DRIVE?

PUBLIC TRANSPORT — Southern Spain has a well-established and modern network of trains and buses. To get the cheapest bus or train tickets, take a look at Omio to find the timetables and prices.

DAY TRIPS — If you don’t like the hassle of using public transport, local travel companies offer many day trip options from almost all the destinations in Southern Spain. You can check them out here.

WHERE SHOULD I BOOK MY ACCOMMODATION?

BOOKING.COM — I have been using booking.com for all my trips in Spain and abroad, and have never had any negative experiences. Their reviews are very accurate and you get the best deals even on apartments, not just hotels.

ARE THERE LUGGAGE STORE OPTIONS IN THE CITIES?

YES — If you would like to leave your luggage behind to explore the city on your last day, before heading to the airport, you can use Radical Storage service, which lets you book luggage storage options in almost all the destinations in Southern Spain.

DO I NEED TO BUY A LOCAL SIM CARD FOR THIS TRIP?

YES – You can, of course, use your own card if you have roaming data available. If you want to avoid surprising extra charges from your operator, you can use a service like Airalo, where you can buy digital packs for e-sim cards, avoiding the hassle of sourcing local physical sim cards and extra roaming charges anywhere you go.
