Aigialos, in the most desirable location
in Fira, quiet and peaceful yet not too far from the hustle
and bustle, is a microcosm of the town, a delightful mixture
of vernacular and Neoclassical architecture.
On the very trim of the caldera, the most spectacular spot
in Santorini, overlooking the volcano and the Aegean sea,
and blessed with the loveliest sunset in the world, Aigialos
is an unspoilt neighourhood on the southwest Fira, surrounded
by three streets.
Located next to the Byzantine church of Christ, Aigialos
is a complex of 16 luxurious traditional and Neoclassical
houses combing the charm of Cycladic architecture with all
modern comforts. Set among quaint cobbled walk ways, all 16
houses named after the winds, offer a magnificent view of
the caldera, the volcano and the Aegean from their verandas
and balconies.
Each house has been remodelled especially for discerning
guests, to the highest specifications yet with absolute respect
for tradition.
