Nestled high on the enchanting cliffs of Santorini, there’s a luxury gem of a hotel named Chromata. Belonging to Leading Hotels of The World group, Chromata Santorini is truly one of the most stunning properties you can rent on the island. With its iconic location, infinity pool overlooking the entire coastline and finest dining experiences, this cave hotel should make a cut to your bucket list.
CHROMATA SANTORINI LOCATION
Chromata is located in the town of Imerovigli, which is where the majority of luxury Santorini hotels are. Imerovilgi village, known as the “Balcony on the Aegean”, is a place of charming restaurants, sweeping views and breathtaking sunsets. Although many people would not consider Imerovigli as it’s quite distant from the island’s hot spot- Oia, this small and picturesque place is one of the most beautiful in Santorini.
Imerovigli is much more quiet than Oia and you can enjoy it more especially during the peak months. As Oia streets tend to get completely packed and it’s hardly possible to find a good spot for sunset watching, Imerovigli is just the opposite. The town has multiple restaurants, blue-dome churches, white-wahsed houses and the views… oh my. The views here are truly jaw-dropping.
The distances from Imerovigli:
-Oía– 17 minute drive
-Santorini Airport- 12 minute drive
-Thira Town Centre- 9 minute drive
-Thira New Harbour- 24 minute drive
-Red Beach- 30 minute drive
ROOM OPTIONS IN CHROMATA SANTORINI
Casually cascading down the cliff side, the sea-view rooms and suites in Imerovigli are all about luxury and romance in every detail. The cave-style rooms and villas blend perfectly with the traditional Santorini architecture as well as the surrounding views. The selection of rooms and villas is perfectly crafted for families and couples who come to Santorini to witness the very best of Greece.
While all the rooms have an exceptional view of the Caldera, the more expensive options give you the luxury of a private hot tub or infinity pool. All rooms have a small balcony which is a perfect spot for watching the most spectacular sunsets over a glass of a complimentary local wine.
The suites in Chrimata are spacious and they keep cool temperature due to its cave and stone design. They have luxurious bathrooms equipped with hot tubs, cosy bedrooms and small lounge areas.
