What's the difference between a plunge pool and a jacuzzi in Santorini?

A plunge pool is a small pool (typically 4-10 square metres) that may or may not be heated, often with an infinity edge. A jacuzzi is a smaller jetted tub (2-4 square metres), almost always heated. Plunge pools give you more space and usually a better visual with the infinity edge. Jacuzzis guarantee warm water and jet massage. Shoulder-season travel? Heated jacuzzi is the more practical pick.
