This summer, Santo Collection unveils two new chic cliffside retreats in Santorini, inviting discerning travelers to a serene and luxurious haven on Greece&rsquo;s most popular island.

Nestled beneath the bustling thoroughfare of Oia&rsquo;s Nikolaou Nomikou Street and perched above Ammoudi Bay is Santo Pure, the first of three gorgeous sister <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/travel-living/olivier-dassault-dominican-republic-home">properties</a> by the Santo Collection offering <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty-zodiac/sofia-sanchez-de-betak-chufy-taurus-zodiac-beauty">globetrotters</a> a fresh taste of the Cyclades&rsquo; most famous island, Santorini. Set against the backdrop of the Caldera, Santo Pure invites patrons to savor the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/travel-living/exclusive-islands-vacation-around-the-world">island&rsquo;s</a> enchanting sunsets from the privacy of their suites or by the expansive <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/sizzle-in-these-8-sexy-monokini-swimsuits-this-summer">infinity pool</a>, negating the need to compete for a prime vantage point with the other two million tourists who visit <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/travel-living/top-destinations-instagram-influencers">Santorini</a> each year. Situated west of the majority of the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/travel-living/hotel-umbral-mexico-city-art-gallery">hotels</a> and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/summer-resort-fashion-inspiration-archive">resorts</a> in Oia, and removed from the clamor and commotion of its busy streets, the spacious Santo Pure resort exudes a serene ambiance that isn&rsquo;t always guaranteed at a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/travel-living/mykonos-santorini-guide-greek-islands-hotels">Santorini</a> hotel.

Just in time for summer 2024, two neighboring Santo Collection properties will open, each with its own distinct <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/ariana-debose-omega-atlanta-boutique-store-opening">charm</a>. Santo Mine is an adults-only resort, with 37 individual suites carved into the Oia cliffs on the site of an old stone mine. Private <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/trips/best-swimming-pool-europe-monte-carlo">pools</a> and Jacuzzis adorn each suite, offering front-row seats to the mesmerizing panorama of Ammoudi Bay. The suites are serene and spacious, and, most importantly for the fashion set, feature ample <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/shopping/sustainable-knitwear-fashion-shopping-cashmere-wool">closet</a> space. The room&rsquo;s interior is a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/how-to-achieve-selena-gomez-minimalist-manicure-high-gloss-nails-celebrity-beauty">minimalist&rsquo;s</a> dream, evoking a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/hermes-spring-summer-2024-collection">Mediterranean</a> simplicity with khaki interior hues. Bluetooth-enabled speakers and synced TVs throughout the suite help guests unwind day or night. To be so perfectly positioned to witness the iconic Santorini sunset from the privacy of one&rsquo;s own suite is an undeniable <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/attersee-clothing-brand-new-york-studio">luxury</a>. 
For those prioritizing <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/wellness/best-wellness-spas-nyc">wellness</a> while on holiday, Santo Mine offers an outdoor gym, a top-notch spa (drawing upon the accolades and success garnered by Santo Pure&rsquo;s Anassa Spa), and a culinary experience centered around fresh Mediterranean delights (many <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/wellness/le-botaniste-soho-vegan-restaurant-nyc-dining">vegetables</a> and herbs served are grown organically on the Santo Collection properties). Exploring the island by foot along the Oia to Fira hike is a must, although not for the faint of heart. It is a proper <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/travel-living/world-energy-vortexes-spiritual-travel-international">hike</a> and a great workout, so wear sneakers, bring a Stanley <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/wellness/ditch-the-plastic-water-bottle-for-good">waterbottle</a>, pack an energizing snack, some SPF, and avoid the midday sun. (A pro tip for vacationers interested in lower heart rate zones: a driver can drop you off in Fira, allowing a leisurely downhill meander back to the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/why-do-the-resort-collections-matter">resort</a>, perfectly timed to reach the Assumption of the Virgin Mary Chapel at sunset &mdash; you&rsquo;re welcome.)

To witness the iconic Santorini sunset from the privacy of one&rsquo;s own suite is an undeniable luxury.

The third sister property, The Villas by Santo Collection, is a bastion of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/travel-living/good-energy-apartment-home-interior-design-crystals">serenity</a> and seclusion. Discreetly positioned, the two four-bedroom <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/travel-living/most-expensive-mansion-in-the-world-los-angeles-selling-295-million-dollars">villas</a> embrace Cycladic design with earthy hues, exquisite linens, and Athena Calderone&ndash;style vessels and decor. Each villa boasts a notably expansive pool, surrounded by native <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/travel-living/muse-floristry-boutique-floral-arrangements-paris-florist-majid-mohammad">plants</a> swaying in the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/coastal-grandma-aesthetic-trend">coastal</a> breeze. A stay at The Villas unlocks exclusive access to a personal concierge service, facilitating arrangements for private chefs and mixologists, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/wellness/dior-spa-cruise-boat-paris-river-seine">spa</a> services, and bespoke yacht and helicopter excursions. 
While tearing oneself away from the relaxing allure of The Villas may prove challenging, the most enchanting Santorini experiences often unfold upon its crystalline <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/travel-living/best-celebrity-spring-break-destinations-2022">waters</a>. The concierge can arrange a driver who will (skillfully, and yet, rather hilariously) drive backwards down the side of a cliff to deposit guests at the base of the gorgeous Ammoudi Bay in mere minutes. Here, one can meet their boat charter at the quaint <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/celebrities-caught-canoodling-on-boats-harry-styles-olivia-wilde">port</a>, or tuck around the corner of the cliff to test out the best-loved <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/trips/natural-swimming-pools-exotic-vacation-destinations">swimming</a> hole. As the day concludes, Ammoudi Fish Tavern beckons, where fresh Greek flavors and ever-flowing wine harmonize with yet another mesmerizing Santorini sunset.

Santo Pure’s Ilios Villa features two bedrooms, private pool, and sauna and overlooks the Agean Sea.
