Trailfinders' Kate Coleman gives an insight into Istoria, a Member of Design Hotels
Istoria, a Member of Design Hotels Expert Review
Kate Coleman
Ideal for anyone looking for a more chilled out Santorini experience away from the crowds, Istoria is located steps from Perivolos beach and away from the hustle and bustle of Oia and Thira. Still only around a 20 minute drive to these key locations meaning you can easily take a day trip, this location offers a more relaxed vibe.
The main pool is the key selling point as it’s huge and plays relaxed music with a great bar.
With only 12 suites, this is truly a boutique option, and each room is stylish with luxury touches. Whilst I didn't eat at the Mr E Restaurant, it is renowned for top quality Greek cuisine.
Top tip: Combine with Mystique Santorini, the properties sister hotel, for a Caldera experience in Oia and relaxation in Istoria!
