"A tranquil boutique getaway in Vourvoulos, Magma Resort Santorini boasts just 59 accommodations (each of which features a pool or jacuzzi), an authentic Greek culinary scene and sublime views of the water."

A peaceful village nestled in the northeastern part of Santorini, Vourvoulos offers a charming retreat for travellers seeking a more serene experience than one might find elsewhere on the island. Panoramic views, dramatic landscapes and local charm abound, and despite its remote feel, Santorini’s capital, Fira, is less than a 10-minute drive away. Perched quietly on a hillside near the village is Magma Resort Santorini – a relatively new addition to the Unbound Collection by Hyatt. From the start, the resort pays homage to its home and illuminates its namesake: the exterior of Magma is made of black volcanic rocks sourced from the island. As blissfully calm as its surroundings, this boutique property offers a curated stay on the cusp of the Aegean.

With just 59 rooms and suites, Magma Resort exudes a welcome sense of privacy and exclusivity. Each accommodation is equipped with its own private veranda or terrace, complete with a pool or Jacuzzi. You’ll inevitably find yourself spending plenty of time enjoying these outdoor spaces, especially given that all rooms boast unobstructed views of the water. Inside, the spaces are subdued yet sophisticated: sleekly designed but pared down enough to create a soothing, uncluttered atmosphere. Neutral tones predominate, with pale shades contrasting against volcanic hues that echo the island’s landscape. Rust-coloured blankets stand out against dark greys and blacks, and the pale bathrooms feel subtly spa-like.

Chef Lefteris Soultatos leads the resort’s culinary scene, which pays homage to the diverse flavours of Greece. For the first meal of the day, head to Colombo, which serves stylish Champagne Breakfasts and breezy lunches and hosts international theme nights on select occasions. Spend sunsets poolside at Bar on the Rocks, which offers a good variety of cocktails and mocktails to enjoy by the fire pits along with light bites. Magma Soul is the restaurant of choice for dinner, drawing inspiration from both the northern and southern regions of the country. This ambient venue makes full use of fresh local meat and seafood. Don’t miss the opportunity for a five-course private dining experience or a cocktail masterclass at Astra Lounge.

If you tire of the swimming facilities in your own room, the resort also has two inviting pools to choose from, one of which is a heated indoor option within the property’s state-of-the-art wellness centre. Also in the wellness centre are steam rooms, a sauna and a spa, the latter of which boasts three treatment rooms.
