ICONIC SANTORINIA J e w e l i n t h e M e d i t e r r a n e a n

RAINE MAGAZINE - VOLUME 25 81

The stunning Iconic Santorini, perched on the rim of a dramatic caldera a thousand feet above the Aegean Sea, places its visiting friends front and center in one of Greece’s most romantic settings. This exquisite boutique cave hotel is fashioned from the former homes and shops in Imerovigli, one of Santorini’s typical traditional white-cube villages and the highest settlement on the caldera. All residences take their vibe from the island’s unique architectural style, featuring whitewashed walls and arched ceilings, and featuring traditional fabrics, all contributing to an authentic Greek experience skillfully blended with today’s luxury amenities. The award-winning Iconic Santorini has won the hearts of its travel-savvy visitors, enthusiasts who appreciate the décor and luxury so much they’ve been asking for “more suites, please.” Now they have another playground for wallowing in luxury with attentive service and warm Greek hospitality.

NEW CYCLADIC SUITES EMPHASIZE SPACE Iconic Santorini’s Cycladic Suites, new tasteful and authentically Greek residences, are among the largest on the island. In each case, two hotel rooms have been combined for an uncluttered sense of spaciousness, with separate living room and bedroom, two full bathrooms per suite, and personalized terrace and lounging spaces with spectacular views of the spectacular, but occasionally naughty, caldera. (It was the site of one of the largest volcanic eruptions in history. The volcano literally tore itself apart. The caldera is still active from time to time with small burps. The last notable burp was in 1950, so rest easy.) Headboards are fashioned from the branches of native trees to complement the all-natural cloud-like comfort of the COCO-MAT 4-layer beds. The residences also feature oversized flat-screen TVs, individual air conditioners, luxurious Aesop bathroom amenities, dedicated WiFi routers and personalized service.
