The collaboration began all the way back in 2009, when Sirene Blue’s owner took the decision to renovate the classic hotel and update it for a fresh new era.”We initially helped informally with the selection of materials,” explains Varveris, “but we ended up overseeing the project and overall design – with significant and insightful input from the owner, of course.”

With the overhaul now complete, Sirene Blue gleams with contemporary style. This season’s guests will find a sense of tastefully discreet luxury thanks to the renovated facilities and high-end design elements throughout the hotel. The guestrooms and suites are particularly gorgeous with their colour scheme that gently echoes the surrounding scenery: all natural woods, Aegean-blue wall tiles and quality fabrics that match the shades of the sand down on the shore. Every room has a private balcony overlooking the sea, ensuring that guests need never disconnect from those magical views.

Those same views can also be enjoyed from all the public areas, be that the main restaurant, the roof garden, the lobby bar or the chic, sea-facing pool. Uniting all these spaces is a cohesive sense of quality thanks to the furnishings and signature pieces sourced by Interni & Moda Bagno, like ….?. Adding to this is a tangible sense of exquisite attention to detail in the careful procurement and placing of houseplants, artworks and interesting objets d’art.

Wherever guests choose to linger – their balcony, the beach, the bar or the over-the-sea wooden deck – the overall theme of their stay will be of joyful relaxation. Further accentuating these serene vibes is Sirene Blue Spa, which offers stress-busting treatments and therapies that are inspired by nature. Whether enjoying a massage, sipping a cocktail or sampling Mediterranean cuisine, the focus is always on quality ingredients combined with those panoramic views.
