ABC News: Santorini among the 5 most inspiring destinations in the world

Santorini is among the world’s 5 most inspiring destinations that will give you a whole new outlook on life, according to abcNews.go.com.

The article begins by mentioning that “Jacques Cousteau, documentarian, explorer, and writer, was said to have had a love affair with Santorini. Cousteau even looked for the lost city of Atlantis in Santorini. It’s not difficult to see why Cousteau was so besotted with this crescent-shaped oasis, made up of a group of islands at the southernmost point of the Cyclades. Its geographical significance is no less impressive than its stunning beauty; the island is still an active volcano, with its crater found in the sea. Thus the houses of Fira and Oia are nestled on the Cliffside above the underwater crater.

“Art Maisons Luxury Santorini Hotels Aspaki & Oia Castle” (the name is about as long as the list of reasons to stay here!), is a great hotel pick here. The property is situated on the northern caldera cliffs, where guests can take in some of the best sunset views in Santorini. If nothing else you’ll certainly get some home d?cor inspiration: Aspaki Suites all feature contemporary Cycladic design, with the exposed volcanic rock and tiled bathrooms injecting some much needed color into the whitewashed walls. Private balconies allow guests an exclusive vantage point over the Aegean Sea.”
