Santorini is a playful fairy in the middle of the Cyclades and the most exclusive spot, sprinkling visitors with her golden dust just before she magnetises them with hypnotising seascapes, heart-melting sunsets, mind-blowing Cycladic architecture, and a history that speaks of the remarkable willpower demonstrated by the islanders during their bleakest of times. Amidst all this incredible appeal lies Imerovigli, a fantastic place with everything you’ll ever need only a whitewashed stroll away, from luxury accommodation and fine dining to entertainment, sightseeing, and spa treatments.
Sitting in the heart of the Santorini crown, dashing guests with its vibrant light and subdued glam, Imerovigli is the perfect spot to watch the infamous sunset views the millions of tourists visiting Santorini every year want to capture on camera at all costs! Also, being close to Thera (or Fira), the island’s capital, Imerovigli puts you close to all the night action but far enough to escape the noise of the bustling capital.
