Katikies Hotel SANTORINI, GREECE
LAPS OR LOUNGING? Committed swimmers will always be able to fInd space in one of the hotel’s three pools, the largest of which is 15m long. But with a distracting view over the Cyclades archipelago stretching to infInity and beyond, quite how much front crawl you’ll manage is another matter. Nevertheless, even modest efforts should be rewarded with a cucumber, apple and ginger martini from the pool-side bar.
AND ONCE I’VE DRIED OFF? Head to the rooftop restaurant for a superior Greek salad, or to your room’s private terrace for an al fresco snooze. Hotel buildings are bright, white and strewn with bougainvillea, their cliff-face location ensuring the sea is always in eyeshot.
