Blue Domes & Bougainvillaea

Blue Domes & Bougainvillaea: Santorini

With views of the glittering Aegean Sea, blooms of magenta bougainvillaea and Santorini’s iconic blue domes, this villa occupies one of the best spots on the island. Inside, it’s pared-back, stylish and a little bit luxurious – we loved the bathtub made from volcanic rock and we couldn’t get enough of the premium mattresses. There’s more grounded grandeur outside: an infinity plunge pool with built-in Jacuzzi feature and a balcony that makes for a perfect sunset watching spot.

When you’re feeling peckish, put together Greek-inspired dishes in the fully-equipped kitchen or why not call upon the help of a private chef to take care of the cooking. After a good feasting, slip on your sandals and explore your surroundings. The heart of Imerovigli village, home to sleek bars and swanky restaurants is a two-minute walk away. If you’d prefer to expend a little more energy, set off on the Skaros Rock and Ekklisia Theoskepasti hiking trail, less than ten minutes from your doorstep.
