Shila
HotelEurope, Greece
From $250
Shila occupies a neoclassical mansion from the late 1920s on Mantzarou Street, a quiet pedestrian lane in Kolonaki, Athens’ most cultured neighborhood, a short walk from the Benaki and Cycladic Art museums. The original terrazzo floors, high ceilings, wrought iron and marble details have been kept, and the house is imagined as the world of a fictional hostess named Shila. Its six suites each have their own character, from 1960s-inspired rooms with fine art photography to bohemian suites under the roof, all furnished with vintage pieces and works by Greek artists. There is a garden courtyard, a library that doubles as a gallery, breakfast baskets of Greek specialties delivered to your suite, and a roof terrace lined with banana trees.
The Selene
VillaEurope, Greece
From $511
The Selene is a much-loved private house overlooking Nimborio Bay, with five suites, two acres of terraced gardens and its own steps leading down to the Aegean. Whitewashed walls, painted shutters, old timber, woven textiles and antique pieces give the interiors the feeling of an actual Greek island home rather than a polished resort, while breakfast under the olive trees, long dinners on the terraces and swims in the bay become the natural rhythm of a stay here. Symi’s main harbour is only three kilometres away, but the house feels wonderfully removed from it, with little more than gardens, rocky hills and exceptionally clear water filling the view.
Acro Suites
HotelEurope, Greece
From $650
Acro Suites is carved into a rocky headland above the Cretan Sea, with 47 suites and villas designed around stone, concrete, timber and the raw contours of the site. The Cave Suites are the property’s most distinctive rooms, partially built into the cliff itself and opening onto private pools with uninterrupted sea views, while the rest of the resort continues the same material language through terraces, villas and wellness spaces. Its bamboo yoga shala, Byzantine-inspired bath house and strong focus on movement, nutrition and restorative treatments give the hotel a much more immersive identity than a conventional seaside resort.
Hotel Miramalfi
HotelEurope, Italy
From $850
Hotel Miramalfi sits on the cliffs at the western edge of Amalfi, about ten minutes on foot from the cathedral and the harbor, on Italy’s Amalfi Coast. Built into the rock above the sea, it has sea-view rooms with tiled floors and terraces, a saltwater pool with a poolside bar and a private sea platform for swimming and snorkeling in the Mediterranean. Guests can unwind at the spa and wellness center, eat at the hotel’s restaurants with views of the coast, and leave the car with the free valet, a rare convenience in Amalfi. Breakfast is included, and small pets are welcome.
