Is there a name for this characteristic of the human body (see the arrows in the picture below)? They seem as 'holes' on the back.
I'm not able to imagine one

These holes/depressions are called dimples of venus. Also called back dimples or butt dimples.

@AffableGeek See, the picture isn't pretty anymore.– user20934Jun 7, 2012 at 6:44
The single-word you are requesting is "dimples."
These are also called sacral dimples, as the lower back is the sacrum.
