Mystique, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Santorini - Santorini

This five-star, all-suite hotel is a member of Marriott Hotel’s Luxury Collection. Carved into the rugged cliffs and perched above the Aegean Sea, Mystique, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Santorini is ideal for couples, honeymooners or families travelling with children over 14 seeking seclusion. This beautiful hotel offers unobstructed sea views, which can be enjoyed from every area of the hotel.

Located in Oia village, said to be the most picturesque area of Santorini, Mystique, a Luxury Collection Hotel, is a short walk from the village’s main road, with its small shops and distinctive whitewashed, blue-domed buildings of the area. Santorini Airport and Athinios Port are a 24-minute and 45-minute drive away, respectively.

Cut into the cliff and designed with the cosiness, but none of the darkness of a cave, the unique suites are cool and inviting. Decorated in white, cream and linen, driftwood and pebbles are incorporated into the furniture to echo the seafront location. Stylish seating areas and bathtubs are carved from the cliff and add to the atmosphere of understated chic, appearing to have formed naturally in the surroundings. Terraces overlook the turquoise sea and suites enjoy 24-hour room service and complimentary bottled water – upgrade to a Wet Allure Suite for an outdoor Jacuzzi.

Mystique’s two pools and accompanying sun beds are the ideal spot to let go of your stresses and take in the impressive views. For further relaxation, the Asian Spa offers individual and couples’ treatments, which use organic and regional ingredients. If you’re looking to explore the island, a 45-minute car journey takes you to the private beach area of Perivolos, where sunbeds and beach service are waiting. A spacious fitness centre is also available, featuring Technogym equipment and CrossFit accessories, overlooking the sea.

The impressive sea views continue at the hotel’s restaurants – start your day at Captain’s Lounge for a casual breakfast, then choose between Asian flavours at ASEA or local ingredients at Charisma Restaurant, for dinner. For something extra-special, The Secret Wine Cave offers private candlelit dinners and tastings of their rare wine collection.
