“Tucked away under the cliffs on one of Santorini’s last relatively undeveloped bits of coast at Vlihada, a tiny fishing harbour on the ‘heel’ of the island, Notos Therme consists of 28 rooms on stepped terraces overlooking the sea. The big selling points: tranquillity and a plethora of spa treatments, based on the volcanic springs that burst from the cliffs. Choose from algae or mud wraps, massages, soaks and rain showers in luscious caverns carved from the living rock. For a change of scenery, Thira town with its shops and restaurants is only 20 minutes by car.”

“A heavenly spa in a breathtaking setting, Notos Therme & Spa grips the volcanic soil of Santorini where spring water is naturally purified and used as a base for innovative spa treatments. The unique spa contrasts with the bright nautical theme in the rooms above, all with verandas providing stunning sea views.”
