There is much contention surrounding the ancient Greek poet Homer, writer of the Odyssey and Iliad, with many unsure of who he was and whether he alone wrote these incredible works. There is no such confusion over the Homeric Poems hotel in Firostefani on the equally incredible island of Santorini, for its uniqueness is never called into question. Clutching the side of the cliff, the Homeric Poems offers astounding views across the caldera and out to sea, completed by a stirring sunset to close your day.

With just nineteen rooms and apartments, the Homeric Poems hotel is ideal for those who seek seclusion, however as the hotel is located in close proximity to the lively capital town of Fira you're never far away from civilisation should you want it. Arrival at the Homeric Poems is indicated when you spot a small fishing boat atop a roof as you walk along the cliff path and as this is Santorini, the roof is at eye-level! More than just a decorative feature, this little boat is the first registered fishing vessel on Santorini and belonged to the hotel owner's grandfather.

Passing the rooms as you descend the steps, you arrive at a plateau where the swimming pool beckons you to take a dip and a shaded bar and lounge provides respite from the warm sunshine when a refreshing cocktail calls. It's here where it's tempting to spend a lot of time, thanks to the beautiful view and comfortable seating, however the real charm and attraction of the Homeric Poems hotel is found inside the rooms, each named after a character from the poetry of Homer.

Soft pastel tones and a relaxing, almost bohemian atmosphere welcome you into the Apartments, where the marble bathrooms and gorgeous Queen size beds mesh beautifully with the traditional Santorinian decoration. Of course, the beauty of the island is laid out for you from your balcony too. If you're traveling as a group or a family, then the Captain's House may suit your needs perfectly. Adapted from a cottage into three striking suites, each is connected to the other, however they remain as private as you desire. Outside is a beautiful stone terrace which is shared by the three suites, making it the ideal choice for those wishing to enjoy the Homeric Poems as a family.
