Vedema Resort
5 Star Hotels
Style: Classic Luxury
Megalohori , Santorini Island 84700
Greece




Surrounded by a wall like a fortified town, Vedema Resort is a world unto itself. The deluxe hotel is situated in the medieval village of Megalohori, on the legendary Greek Island of Santorini - a remnant of a mythological past. Just seven kilometers from Fira, the capital of the Island, the resort overlooks rolling vineyards, the Aegean sea, and beyond to beautiful sunsets. Stay in one of the 45 unique pastel-hued townhouses, domed with distinctive cupolas. Constructed in a traditional style, all feature an authentic look inspired by the characteristic colors of the Greek Islands. The 10 pool suites are models of fresh minimalism, originally inspired by the simple island lodges and "barefoot chic" philosophy found throughout Santorini. The Presidential Villa is a masterpiece of luxury and style. The 15th century-styled winery restaurant, Vinsanto Restaurant and Lounge, serves Mediterranean cuisine whilst Pergola Pool Restaurant offers light meals and Greek specialties. Wine tasting takes place every evening around sunset at the Canava Wine Bar, and allows you to sample different types of caviars, French champagne, and the best of Cuban cigars. Exquisitely furnished, perfectly situated on a magical Aegean isle, and elegantly equipped to meet all your needs, Vedema Resort is ready to be your private paradise.
