Boutique Hotel: Vora Villas

Perched on the edge of the caldera in Santorini, Vora is a handcrafted boutique hotel of three private villas carved into caves, cliffs and suspended high above the sea.

 Inspired by the volcanic enviornment and boasting minimalistic Cycladic desgin with custom-made furniture and a soothing palette of beiges and grays augmented by dark brown wood.  The private plunge pool of each villa opens up to monumental views of the volcano and the Aegean sea.  At this heavenly setting created by Vora’s upscale aewsthetics one can live a more intimate hospitality experience. 

Guests experience a series of carefully choreographed contrasts – the wide open exposure to the sun and view against the cool darkness of the cave rock; black volcanic rock and burned finishes against cool white curves and calming pale textures – dark with light, sharp with soft, drama with total relaxation. 

The hotel is intense and complex, yet laid out with clarity and designed with authenticity.
