Istoria Santorini: Understated Elegance, Distinctive Design, and Seaside Luxury

Istoria, a member of Design Hotels, is an exclusive luxury retreat located on Perivolos Beach, Santorini. Away from the bustle of the Caldera, it offers a unique experience centered on tranquility and understated luxury. The name, meaning 'story' or 'history', reflects its character, weaving together the past and present of the island's hospitality.

Design Inspired by Ancient Stables and Local Materials

The hotel was built on the site of ancient stables, and the design keeps this legacy alive, reinterpreting it in a minimalist and sophisticated key. The 12 suites were crafted using local materials such as black volcanic stone and wood, creating an elegant and earthy atmosphere, in stark contrast to the deep blue of the Aegean Sea.

Private Black Beach and Secluded Pools

Istoria enjoys a prime location with a private section of the famous black sand beach of Perivolos. Each suite offers a high degree of privacy, and many feature private pools or hot tubs on the terrace. Luxury here is experienced discreetly, with a focus on total relaxation and direct contact with nature.

Gourmet Dining with a 'Farm-to-Table' Philosophy

Istoria's restaurant offers a refined interpretation of Mediterranean cuisine, based on a 'farm-to-table' philosophy. Fresh island produce and local specialties are used, served in an elegant outdoor setting, perfect for romantic dinners under the stars and appreciating the authentic flavors of Santorini.

Peaceful Retreat Ideal for Wellness and Tranquility

The hotel's atmosphere is intentionally calm and relaxed. Besides the Spa, which offers personalized treatments, Istoria is a place that invites meditation and rest. It is the perfect choice for couples and travelers seeking a luxurious seaside retreat of peace, away from the crowds of the Caldera villages.
