Nectar

Nectar on Santorini's eastern side

Nectar is the specialty dinner restaurant at Sandblu Santorini, in the Ancient Thira area above Kamari. The restaurant's page identifies a Greek-Mediterranean concept, while Hilton's location information places the resort near Kamari Beach. This is an east-coast Santorini setting, not a caldera-side restaurant in Oia or Fira. The resort's address is Ancient Thira, Kamari, Santorini, 84700, Greece; use Sandblu Santorini as the arrival reference. Nectar is separate from Sandblu's other restaurants and wine spaces, so specify its name when arranging dinner.

A seafood-led menu with other choices

The published dinner menu moves from breads and spreads to raw preparations, hot starters and main courses. Examples include taramosalata with black lime, crab salad with bergamot, zucchini keftes with goat-milk kefir, and scorpion fish with chilopitaki and kakavia sauce. Catch-of-the-day preparations sit alongside slow-cooked lamb, chicken and a celeriac option identified as vegetarian. The menu names executive chefs Panagiotis Boufis and Thymios Kola. Desserts include galaktompoureko and chocolate kormos, retaining recognizable Greek references within a contemporary menu. These are published examples rather than a guarantee of the selection on a particular evening.

Booking and checking requirements

Nectar's official page links to a restaurant reservation form and provides separate food, children's, wine and beverage menus. The dedicated children's menu is a useful distinction for families considering a more formal dinner. Tell the team about allergies before arrival: the food menu carries detailed ingredient codes and specifically asks for dietary information. Some dishes are marked as using previously frozen ingredients, so a blanket claim that all seafood is fresh would be inaccurate. Use the restaurant booking link, not the hotel's accommodation button, and confirm the current seasonal service when arranging your visit.

World Culinary Awards recognition

Nectar is the 2026 winner in Greece's Best Hotel Restaurant 2026. These category awards are distinct from Michelin stars or an inspection-based numerical restaurant score.

The published voting rules distinguish public voters from verified industry voters, whose votes carry twice the weight. The award identifies a category winner rather than supplying a tasting score for every restaurant.
