A Look Inside : Domes Novos Santorini

Santorini, the stunning Greek island, has welcomed a new and impressive addition to its hotel scene – Domes Novos Santorini. This design-focused, family-friendly resort boasts an impressive 50 luxuriously appointed suites and two villas. Each boasting its own private pool and terrace, providing unrivalled vantage points to take in Santorini’s world-famous sunsets over the Aegean Sea and picturesque local vineyards.

Nestled in Santorini’s northwestern corner, in the aptly named Tholos region, which translates to “Domes,” Domes Novos Santorini is strategically set back from the typically crowded coastal paths and providing a refreshing contrast to the saturated cliff-fronts. Domes’ vision is to offer an unhurried and understated destination with spacious suite and villa accommodations set back from the coastline, and the space to create more authentic exploration and connection with the hyperlocal community and environment, without the crowds.

Kiros Pagkalidis Architects has masterfully blended Cycladic luxury with a sustainable approach at Domes Novos Santorini, employing local materials such as volcanic stone and blonde oak to create a neutral palette of terracotta, fresh whites, and ashy greys. The thoughtful design seamlessly integrates indoor and outdoor spaces, fostering a bright and open ambience. Designer Olivia Siskou has infused the interiors with local touches, while Fytron Landscapes and George Petsagkourakis have collaborated to craft the resort’s captivating landscape.

Culinary experiences are a signature element of the Domes brand, with Novos Santorini being no exception. The hotel offers a plethora of interactive and culturally-charged experiences, including vineyard tours and tastings, workshops with winemakers, and immersive cooking lessons. Onsite, epicurean lovers can revel in Domes’ new restaurant Vatanee, led by visionary and Head Chef Dionysis Anastopoulos, who strives to bring people closer together through his cooking with mezes, fine-dining and fresh seasonal ingredients, handmade alipastas, pickles and cured meats – dishes inspired by Greek tradition, land, and sea.

Similar to all Domes’ properties, wellness is a central component and guests can unwind in the exclusive Soma Spa with traditional Greek spa rituals combined with contemporary methods and volcanic-infused treatments. Guests may re-energize in the state-of-the-art gym and underground indoor pool, or indulge in holistic moments of yoga and meditation around the on-site grapevine gardens.
