When people dream of holidays, often the idyllic island of Santorini is top of the list. With the sky ablaze with a captivating sunset, the sublime landscape of whitewashed houses mingling in with colourful Bule domed buildings with the renowned Caldera as a backdrop – anyone who visits Santorini, cannot help but fall under its spell.
Our Travel Designers have travelled extensively across the island to handpick the best experiences to compliment the luxurious hotel, which you will stay at for ten nights. During your journey, you will visit a traditional farmhouse to experience local cuisine and wine. For connoisseurs of the grape, you will learn about the history of Santorini wine from an experienced sommelier. One of the many highlights will be a private yacht cruise, where there will be plenty of opportunities for diving into the turquoise waters or just taking in some of the best views in the world.
The hotel which we have carefully selected for your Mediterranean holiday is the Katikies Hotel which is in Oia; pronounced Ia. Among all the villages of Santorini, this is the most famous and paradise on earth when sun sets. Built into the rocky cliffs of this picturesque village, each guest room, the three infinity pools and numerous dining options, all have stunning views over the water. Try the delicious sushi at Seltz Champagne bar or for an more intimate affair, we would recommend dining at the candle lit Mikrasia. There are other properties which we can offer as alternatives to Katikies Hotel. Please speak to your Travel Designer for ideas on which hotels would suit your personal requirements.
