A Cloistered Monastic Sanctuary

Santorini's Past and Present Reimagined

Nestled in the historic town of Fira, Katikies Garden is an enchanting 5-star holiday retreat effervescing with the legendary spirit of its home island's past and the refined luxuries of its present. Built within the cloistered courtyards of a former Venetian Catholic monastery, the hotel is distinguished among five-star luxury hotels in Santorini for its experiential nature and unique garden setting.

While most Santorini hotels cling to the vertical cliffs of the caldera, Katikies Garden offers a serene contrast: 40 bespoke suites opening onto lush, manicured private botanical gardens of up to 140 sq m, complete with private swimming pools, open-air jetted tubs, and shaded cabanas draped in flowering bougainvillea. Inside, charcoal parquet floors, high monastery ceilings, and soothing palettes of teal, rose, and cream evoke understated aristocratic elegance.

The hotel is the proud home of Selene Restaurant, celebrated as the pioneer of modern Santorini fine dining for over 35 years, alongside the antique Selene Wine Caves—a centuries-old volcanic cellar that once exported sacred ceremonial wines to the Vatican, now hosting masterclass tastings with Master of Wine Yannis Karakasis MW.
