Escape the crowds of Santorini and Mykonos and discover the untamed allure of Folegandros. Rising from the Aegean Sea, this Cycladic gem is home to Gundari, a sanctuary of raw luxury carved into the island's dramatic southern coast.
Sprawling across 80 acres, Gundari blends seamlessly with its rugged surroundings. The low-slung architecture, sustainably crafted from excavated rock, seems to emerge from the earth itself. Inside, a symphony of earth tones and natural materials – think stone, straw, and timber – creates an atmosphere of understated elegance.
Intimacy is paramount at Gundari, with just 27 spacious suites and villas dotting the expansive grounds. Each accommodation is an oasis unto itself, boasting expansive private terraces that blur the lines between indoors and out. Imagine waking up to breathtaking Aegean vistas, taking a dip in your infinity pool, and basking in the Mediterranean sun from your private lounge area. Even the "simple" suites offer unparalleled space and luxury, complete with outdoor rain showers for a refreshing escape.
While the aesthetic whispers of nature and rustic charm, modern indulgence is never far away. Luxurious marble bathrooms, state-of-the-art sound systems, and a touch of Athenian sophistication elevate the experience. For the ultimate escape, the cliffside cave suites beckon with double rain showers, vintage turntables, and fully stocked cocktail bars – perfect for crafting sunset cocktails beside your private plunge pool. And for those seeking unparalleled grandeur, the villas boast expansive infinity pools that seem to cascade into the horizon.
While the allure of your private sanctuary might be hard to resist, Gundari offers a wealth of experiences. Take a dip in the main infinity pool, complete with a swim-up bar, rejuvenate your senses at the stunning indoor-outdoor spa, or savor contemporary Greek cuisine at the farm-to-table restaurant, where ingredients are plucked fresh from the hotel's organic garden.
At Gundari, luxury is not just about opulence; it's about experiencing the raw beauty of Folegandros in perfect harmony with nature's embrace.
