Veggera Hotel, Perissa in Santorini
Veggera Hotel is situated in Perissa which lies on the modern day island of Santorini. This island was moulded by a massive volcanic eruption before 1650 B.C. leaving behind a deep crater called a caldera. The eruption has created striking volcanic cliffs with terrifying sheer drops into the caldera. The top of the currently active part of the volcano is manifested as a small island in the bay. If you're searching for a truely amazing and unusual Greek island holiday then you're destined to discover the charming island of Santorini, so why not base yourself at Veggera Hotel in Perissa.
An intimate feel. Friendly service. And a fabulous seafront location. They're the hallmarks of this serene Greek charmer, which gazes out on the sands of Perissa. If you're hoping to spend a sizable slice of your holiday beach-bound, you've picked the ideal spot with this place. The hotel itself is a quiet number, all sun bleached walls with a well-placed splash of blue and green brightening things up. Style-wise, it's typically Greek with a dash of style coming from the curves, columns and arches. Take a wander through the cobblestone alleys that weave around the place and you'll come to the tranquil pool complex. There are two turquoise stunners inviting you in for a dip, with loads of sunbeds to go round. And there's a separate pool for the little ones so they can splash away to their heart's content. What's more, the area's framed by lush plants and bright purple bougainvillea so you get the feeling you're swimming in a secret, tucked-away oasis – despite the fact you're just five minutes from Perissa's bars and restaurants. Talking about of restaurants, the one here is definitely worth a mention. You can eat indoors in the bright and spacious dining room. Or pull up a chair outside, beneath the gazebo, and tuck into Greek flavours or global favourites. The staff here are ultra-efficient, too - nothing's too much trouble for them so you can sit back, unwind and enjoy first-class service. On the bar front, you've got a couple of choices. Drink A to Z down the cocktail list in the hotel bar or sip a fresh juice in your swimsuit out at the pool bar. That way you get a fabulous view of the sparkling Aegean thrown in for free. Now that's what holiday dreams are made of.
