Precious privacy and luxury at a unique spot
As it happens with all the wish-listed destinations of this world, if you want to fully experience the “wow” factor of Santorini, there are certain things you must do. A key rule is to pick a stay with Caldera views (go Caldera or go home, that is). Even better, your accommodation has to include some kind of “private water”, using a common expression of the tourist industry jargon. There is one more crucial factor that affects your choice: the more space you have (precious in the island’s clustered villages), the more privacy and luxury you are going to enjoy.
Dreams Luxury Suites, a member of Aqua Vista Hotels, has been included in the lists of the best Santorini hotels for years now. This is by no means a small achievement talking about Santorini, an international destination that admittedly has some of the most luxurious accommodation options. On the highest point of the famous Caldera, nestled in the heart of the colorful volcanic rocks, in the picturesque village of Imerovigli, Dreams Luxury Suites offers a unique combination of privacy, bespoke luxury, and breathtaking views of the world’s most beautiful island and its famous sunset.
The top residence at Dreams Luxury Suites is Villa Ariadne, a clifftop hideaway of 160 m² on an island where space is a much sought after commodity. The experience of staying at a private villa with unobstructed panoramic views of the volcano and the Aegean sea and with not one but three kinds of “private water” surely exceeds even the most demanding guest’s expectations.
Villa Ariadne at Dreams Luxury Suites
All white, in two levels, Ariadne’s top luxury treats include an all-black indoor heated swimming pool next to a steam room. This is the bliss of having your own private spa inside your cave-like suite! Add to this, a veranda with a private heated swimming pool as well as a heated outdoor Jacuzzi on the main terrace of the villa.
Step into Villa Ariadne and you will start going up and down like an excited kid in a playground unable to decide where to focus! The bedroom is upstairs on a domed white attic with a little door that leads you out to the terrace with the outdoor pool.
From Chopard amenities to 3D glasses for the smart TV of the suite, there are little details that reveal a perfectly curated experience.
Nevertheless, nothing can compete with the moments you enjoy gazing at the indigo waters and the cliffside villages of the island. Days here are spent lazing by the pool from the moment you wake up to the jaw-dropping scenery, then during breakfast – at a private table that the team of the hotel sets in seconds – to the legendary sunset hour with a glass of wine in hand and the evening when the starlit sky and the Fira town view in the distance, create a magical ambiance.
Dreams Luxury Suites is situated on a unique spot where you feel as if you are suspended over the big blue of the Aegean. It is one of the few places that you can enjoy rare privacy on an island where people can often walk right by your terrace, sneak peek at you in the jacuzzi, or even take a selfie with you trying to relax in the background!
Location, location, location!
Follow the path along the cliff with uninterrupted views to the sea, and you will arrive at Fira – the bustling capital of the island in less than 15 minutes. Fira town can also be accessed in less than two minutes by bus, private car or taxi which the hotel team will kindly arrange for you day and night. If you are fond of long-distance hiking, follow the path in the opposite direction and you will arrive at the beautiful traditional village of Oia
Each Luxury Suite is designed in the traditional Cycladic style and has its own terrace with a swimming pool or jacuzzi overlooking the Caldera and the Aegean Sea. All suites have stayed true to the original style of the island and represent an immaculate sample of traditional Greek architecture. The privileged location of the Suites provides nearly step-free access. The original houses were built more than 100 years ago and renovated in 2007 by the talented local designer Francesca Tsempelis.
