“This contemporary design hotel on Perivolos Beach boasts a stripped back look conceived by a renowned Greek studio. Drawing on local style, suites are simply dressed in white linens with tiled floors and large, semi-circle windows. The best offer a private hot tub and sea views; barefoot luxury.”

Hotel Review

Perivolos Beach is often overlooked on the Santorini coast because of its black volcanic sand, but it boasts beautiful and unspoiled natural landscapes. The benefits of a hotel situated on this side of the island is that guests avoid the most saturated tourist spots and can experience a more relaxed atmosphere. Istoria certainly exudes tranquillity and relaxation; designed by Athens studio Interior Design Laboratorium, the building itself blends into the natural landscape perfectly, constructed using the same volcanic stones and plaster that feature in the hotel's natural surroundings. The form of the building follows local architectural style; wherever possible, the exposed stone is left to speak for itself, meaning sandy tones abound from the poolside to the suites' private patios. Simple wood accents and crisp linens complete the fresh, Mediterranean feel to the rooms. Whether you're relaxing by the crystalline pool, at the bar, or in the restaurant, the hosts at this beach bolt-hole will make be on hand to meet your needs and make you feel at home. To help you to unwind, book in for a spa treatment during your stay. A simple and elegant design hotel.
