Neo Suites is the boutique hotel in Santorini with 20 luxury suites designed by Kapsimalis Architects and furnished by S•CAB

Characterized by white volumes that blend harmoniously with the surrounding environment, the Neo Suites boutique hotel is perched on the cliffs of Fira, the capital of Santorini, the most famous of the Cyclades islands, offering breathtaking views. The architectural and interior design project, curated by Kapsimalis Architects, a studio based on the volcanic island in the Aegean Sea, draws inspiration from the game of Tetris and consists of two floors on separate levels and a basement. 

All 20 luxurious suites – 12 on the ground floor, 8 on the first floor – have a terrace with a private heated pool. On the basement level, within an existing stone structure, are the reception, restaurant, spa-gym, and additional spaces. The total white, attention to detail, and chromatic contrasts of the furnishings create the ideal atmosphere for an intimate stay marked by comfort.

The terraces and some of the indoor spaces are furnished with the Dress_Code chaise longue, designed by gumdesign as a tribute to sartorial tradition and defined by the color combinations (between the frame and seat) and the textures of the different fabrics. Completing the terrace setup are the eclectic SI-SI metal chairs by Meneghello Paolelli combined with the Tripè coffee tables, in the round version, while those with a square shape are used for an internal welcoming area, always in combination with the SI-SI, all produced by S•CAB.
