Raelle

The Concept: Couples in luxury

Raelle is a traditional cave house villa for 4 guests who want to be near the island’s center while still feeling in total seclusion. The villa overlooks the historical remnants of the volcano surrounded by the deep blue sea — a perfect spot to unwind with your loved ones and watch the famous Santorini sunset. And when you feel like heading out, Fira town is a short walk away, full of picturesque streets and plenty of restaurants where you can taste local dishes.

Outdoors

The al fresco area is a fine example of traditional Cycladic architecture with curved whitewashed walls, blue doors, and windows. As you enter the terrace, you’ll find two deluxe loungers and a seating area facing directly to the sparkling Aegean waters. Beside them, your private infinity pool extends into a cave, where another shaded seating area lets you cool off from the sun. To round it out, there’s also a pergola-protected heated jacuzzi just by the villa’s door.

Indoors

Open-plan and bright rooms with smooth curved lines, built-in features, and minimal furnishing invite the guests to settle into a calm, uncluttered stay. White and blue are the only dominant colours throughout, creating an ambiance of serenity that continues from indoors to the pool area. On entering the villa, you’ll be greeted by a comfy living area which leads on to the two deluxe bedrooms. Τhe finishing touch: the two en-suite bathrooms are decorated with Venetian stucco and glass mosaics.

Good to know

Raelle is located in Imerovigli, a calm base on the caldera with restaurants and cafés nearby for easy evenings out. Fira is also accessible on foot via the scenic cliffside path, making it simple to explore shops and dining without relying on a car. For anything you’d like to plan in advance—such as a volcano cruise, winery visits, or private transfers—our concierge team can help shape the details around your stay.
