Santo Pure Oia Suites & Villas

The DNA

Santo Pure Oia – A Village of Quiet Luxury
A Boho-Chic Cliffside Retreat Where Earth Tones, Infinity Pools, and Timeless Calm Converge


The Art of Escape, Steps from Oia

Just moments from Santorini’s iconic Oia village, Santo Pure Oia Suites & Villas offers the best of both worlds: immediate access to the island’s cultural heart and a peaceful enclave of adult-only calm. Designed as a labyrinth of suites and villas, the resort unfolds like a private village, with five infinity pools and panoramic sea views anchoring its relaxed, design-forward aesthetic.


Design – Monastic Minimalism, Bohemian Soul

The architecture nods to Santorini’s heritage with black volcanic stone, whitewashed domes, and curved alleyways, yet embraces modernist restraint through clean lines and earthy textures. The property is divided into four low-rise clusters, each centered around a shared pool, creating an atmosphere that’s simultaneously communal and private.

Interiors are voluminous and intentional—soaring ceilings, matte plaster walls, and industrial accents like iron staircases and concrete detailing set the tone. Local design studio Lab 11 contributes custom furnishings like high-backed grey sofas, giving the suites a sense of place that’s sophisticated, tactile, and quietly daring.


Atmosphere – Slowness in Motion

At Santo Pure, the rhythm is gentle and grounded. Whether floating in a sun-warmed infinity pool, wandering garden paths, or reading in a shaded nook, guests are encouraged to embrace the quiet luxury of doing less. The spa sanctuary, with its heated indoor pool and holistic therapies, deepens this spirit of calm.


Culinary – Cretan by Design

The resort’s restaurant elevates Cretan flavors with local ingredients and refined technique, creating dishes that feel rooted yet contemporary. Evenings flow naturally from aperitifs at the low-lit bar to sunset dinners on the terrace, all under the gentle arc of the Aegean dusk.


DNA Hotels Verdict

Santo Pure Oia redefines island luxury through architecture, rhythm, and texture. It’s a village within a village, where Cycladic tradition meets modern design language, and boho-chic restraint gives space to breathe. For those seeking a stylish, slow-living escape, it’s Santorini with soul, softened by stone and silence.
