Luxury Holidays At Istoria, a Member of Design Hotels

Lying on the dramatic south-eastern shores of Santorini, away from the madding crowds, where the indigo blue waves of the Aegean Sea wash the volcanic black sand beaches, the Istoria is an intimate and boutique, twelve-suite retreat. This is a place where guests are welcomed into the embrace of what was once a Santorini mansion. In a nod to the estate that once stood here, elements of the original building have been incorporated into the architecture, creating a home-from-home that sensitively and stylishly blends the old with the new. The impressive pool with artisan tiles and sunken pool bar, beautiful spa, and open-to-the-elements restaurant, shaded by canvas sails are all designed to inspire tranquillity and relaxation. Surrounded by ancient olive groves and wild herbs with volcanic lava underfoot, Istoria reinforces the need to slow down and reconnect. The twelve unique suites are thoughtfully designed with sensuously curved walls, cool stone and private terraces overlooking the sea or tucked into private courtyards. Down on the black sand beach the private beach club is the place to lie back and unwind under the warmth of the Cyclades sun.
