Sunday is a day of rest... but there is always Santorini
By on February 1, 2009 9:02 AM
Sunday is a day of rest, but one is still able to window shop or day dream and boy have I been day dreaming this week! With the freakish hot weather in Melbourne of late I have spent the better part of this week couped up inside never too far from my trusty aircon. And so, my mind did wander all the way to Santorini - to the Mystique Hotel to be precise.

The Mystique hotel is built on the most famous cliffs of Oia with panoramic views of some of the world's most outstanding scenery, boasting unhindered views of the Aegean Sea. This sumptuous five star hotel is a member of the Luxury Collection of the Starwood Hotel and Resort chain and is thus reserved for exclusive travellers and the most ardent of day dreamers!

There are eighteen suites and villas in total spread across more than two thousand square metres. Consequently all accommodation is 'lovingly handcrafted from wood, local stone, and glass with enticing patterns carved into the walls.' Hence all the rooms 'offer an intimate and comfortable space, all are fitted out with balconies or terraces and the most modern commodities.'
Can you imagine hanging out by the infinity pool staring out at the
crystal blue sea or lazing about on a sun bed on the wooden terrace?
Or maybe enjoying a magical meal at the Charisma gourmet restaurant to
feast on regional cuisine and partake from the spectacular wine cellar?

I have decided that when I die I want to go to 'Santorini Heaven' - make that 'Mystique Hotel kind of Santorini Heaven' please!

Thanks alot! I woke up feeling pretty good till I saw this...now I remember I could feel better if I was back in Santorini. What a fabulous place and, clearly, not the one I stayed in.
When I went to Santorini in '88, I stayed in Oia and it's breathtaking. Your photos capture the views perfectly.
ooops sorry Joan!
The photos are stunning. Thanks for sending me the link.
Pleasure Ivy!
Oh yes, I could so go there for a holiday!
gorgeous OI and the even more beautiful mystique hotel - these are the marked places in my travel diary. I would love to make it there soon and a rendezvous there with all of us SPice Girls sounds so divine! Let's do it!
Oh WOW!! I am in love. Those last two photos did it for me...
So what are we waiting for?
