Summer Rituals

a place of ethereal beauty. A ring-shaped archipelago. An active
volcano. The crown jewel of the Mediterranean. Santorini is the stuff
of dreams.
Home to magnificent vistas and charming little villages perched atop
sheer cliffs, this island is a place of singular beauty—the kind of beauty
that permeates everything and seems to somehow saturate every fibre
of your being. Here, even the simple act of getting up each morning,
throwing open the terrace doors and taking those first steps into the
island’s glorious sunshine becomes a sort of joyful ritual.
Nothing quite compares to starting your day breathing in the fresh sea
air and feeling the warmth of the morning sunshine on your skin as you
gaze upon the caldera. And then, after a day of revelling in the island’s
beauty and discovering its offerings, to pause again and surrender to
the magic of Santorini’s sunsets.
No matter how many times I return here, these simple moments
rekindle in me the awe I felt when I first set eyes on the island. So whether
this is your first time in Santorini or you return year after year, I invite
you to open your heart and truly fall in love with her anew. Slow down
and connect to the island’s spirit. Its defiant tranquillity. Its down-to-
earth elegance and effortless sophistication, so aptly captured in each
of the exquisite Andronis hotels in Oia and Imerovigli. Make your own
joyful summer rituals. Bask in the island’s wondrous light, delight in
each moment and enjoy life’s simple pleasures.
