(TRAVPR.COM) USA - February 5th, 2014 - (Santorini, February 4, 2014) The Iconic Santorini, a boutique cave hotel, will have its grand opening in April 2014. Even on an island studded with fine inns, this unique property, takes Greek style and hospitality to new heights.
Located on the rim of a volcanic caldera, the 22-room Iconic Santorini puts guests front and center in one of the most dramatic settings in the Mediterranean. This truly remarkable retreat is recreated from actual homes and shops in the whitewashed village of Imervogli, the highest settlement on the caldera -- all the Iconic’s lodgings follow Santorini’s unique style of high-ceilinged caverns notched into the cliff. White arches and traditional fabrics blend with luxury amenities like flat-screen televisions, JBL sound systems, i-Pod docks and over-sized CocoMat all-natural bedding.
According to Jim St. John, Vice President of Hospitality America, “We scheduled the Grand Opening for April to allow time for the addition of stunning private veranda pools for the Iconic Santorini’s three most luxurious showcase suites.”
But even before the officially opening, Iconic Santorini has been hailed for its style and taste by European experts. London’s Tatler Magazine described the rustic-but-sensitive design of the rooms and suites as “terrifically stylish but with a real sense of place.” .
Iconic Santorini is managed by Hospitality America (see below) and is a proud member of the Mantis Collection. That means guests can be sure of world-class service, like being met at the airport and escorted to the hotel or being contacted by the concierge before they leave home to find out if they’d like advance reservations for the spa, rental cars or maybe an appointment to tour a working archaeological dig.
Guests can spend their days browsing among street markets and museums, blue-domed churches and vineyards but chances are most of them will spend leisurely hours enjoying the amenities of Iconic Santorini itself -- the wonderful cliff-top infinity pool and taverna, the gym and spa that make it the perfect setting for romantic getaways, honeymoons or relaxing, rejuvenating escapes.
For more stunning photographs of Iconic Santorini’s rooms and facilities you may contact via telephone 30 22860 28950.
Rates at Iconic Santorini start at 475 Euros (approximately $649) a night for two, including breakfast and poolside snacks, all hotel taxes and complimentary high-speed Internet access. Special packages are listed on the website.
