You’ve Never Seen Santorini Like This: The Exclusive Retreat at the Top of the Island (With a GCT Exclusive Offer)

Santorini is one of the world’s most iconic destinations — yet very few experience it from a place of true calm.
Far from the crowded caldera paths and the constant movement of the island, there is a different Santorini. More composed. More authentic. More personal.

Welcome to Santorini Heights — a discreet boutique retreat set at the highest point of Santorini (480m), just outside the traditional village of Pyrgos, within a protected Natura 2000 landscape. From this elevated position, the island unfolds quietly in every direction, offering uninterrupted panoramic views and an atmosphere of rare stillness.

With four individual luxury suites and one private villa, Santorini Heights is intentionally intimate. Privacy is not a promise here; it is the foundation of the experience.

Refined Luxury, Without Excess

Luxury in Santorini is often associated with exposure — crowded locations, inflated pricing, and a sense of performance. Santorini Heights follows a different philosophy.

Here, luxury is expressed through space, silence, thoughtful design and personalized care rather than spectacle. The experience is premium, yet grounded. Elegant, yet unforced. This is not about compromise on quality — it is about smart luxury, where value comes from authenticity, not excess.

A Stay Shaped Around You

One of the defining elements of Santorini Heights is its highly personalized approach to hospitality. Each stay is treated as a unique journey, carefully shaped around the guest’s preferences and rhythm.

The team can discreetly arrange a wide range of bespoke experiences, from private transfers and tailored island explorations to wine tastings, couple massages, sunrise yoga sessions, private sailing experiences, and meaningful personal celebrations such as proposals, anniversaries, or intimate weddings. Every detail is handled with restraint and care, allowing guests to fully relax into the experience.

Thoughtful Benefits for Direct Guests

Guests who choose to book directly enjoy a series of understated yet meaningful privileges, designed to enhance comfort rather than draw attention:

  • Best Available Rate and continuous concierge support
  • A €70 credit for snacks and cocktails
  • A welcome basket with a bottle of wine
  • Champagne breakfast served privately on the veranda
  • Priority consideration for upgrades, early check-in, or late check-out (*subject to availability)

A Subtle Addition to the Experience

For guests planning their stay in 2026, Santorini Heights is offering an extra  gesture of hospitality to the GTC audience, when booking directly through the official website and using promo code GCT2026 at checkout.

Eligible reservations may enjoy one complimentary dinner during the stay — a simple, authentic meal prepared with care, intended to reflect the essence of local cuisine and the slower rhythm that defines life at the highest point of the island.

This is not a promotional dining experience, but a moment to pause, unwind, and connect with Santorini in a more intimate way.

Additional Privileges

Guests may also benefit from existing seasonal incentives, including loyalty advantages and early booking conditions, where applicable.
