Arrival at Domes Novos Santorini
Tucked away from the crowded caldera buzz, Domes Novos Santorini rises like a sculpture from the soil — all sun-warmed curves, matte textures, and rhythmic architecture. Here, the arrival doesn’t shout. It whispers.
Instead of a reception desk, you're welcomed into a sculptural lobby lounge — woven chairs, artful wall reliefs, and a drink at your side. Our three-year-old was invited to choose his own juice behind the bar, emerging with a cherry-red cocktail glass and a proud grin. That single gesture? It set the tone for the entire stay.
Earth Tones & Geometric Grace
Minimalism meets Mediterranean warmth in the Domes Novos Santorini design language. It’s a study in balance — soft pink plaster walls meet black sculptural panels, while light oaks and stone blend with modern lines.

- Low-profile, linen-wrapped beds with sculpted headboards
- Built-in oak millwork with concealed handles and integrated lighting
- Jute rugs paired with crisp black metals for tonal contrast
Every corner leans into intentional restraint — a design that breathes and balances form with feeling.
