Verina Astra Sifnos SIFNOS, GREECE
Verina Astra crowns a clifftop above the Aegean, offering uninterrupted views of blue horizons by day and brilliant constellations by night. Named after the stars, its rooms and suites, each dedicated to a constellation, open onto private terraces with day beds and, in some cases, plunge pools angled towards the sea. Traditional stonework meets modern lines and native planting, embedding the hotel into its landscape and creating an atmosphere of understated Cycladic luxury. The heart of Verina Astra is its infinity pool,
as well as its wide terraces, where guests linger over breakfasts of thyme honey, capers and island cheeses. Facing east, the property greets the sunrise each morning, while evenings bring soft pinks and golds across the horizon. Steps below the hotel lead to hidden coves for quiet swims in crystal-clear waters. The concierge team can arrange hiking along Sifnos’s historic footpaths and private boat trips around the island’s coastline. The hotel spa, created with Elemis, adds a
restorative element. Two suites overlook the sea, offering treatments such as open-air massages,
facials and therapies, which provide gentle renewal after days of exploration. Bostani, the hotel restaurant, looks over the
orchard and gardens that inspire its name, and is where many of the ingredients used in the kitchen are grown. Elevated cuisine honours Sifnian culinary traditions with seasonal produce, vegetables and herbs, carefully sourced olive oil and wild Aegean fish. Alongside it, the Bostani tapas and cocktail bar offers small plates paired with inventive cocktails. It’s a space for relaxed evenings shaped by shared dishes and sea views. Beyond the property, medieval Kastro is home to
winding alleys, chapels and breezy cafes. Travellers can hike to secluded beaches or join pottery workshops, a craft rooted in Sifnian history. Local markets brim with olives, honey and ceramics, while September brings the Cycladic Gastronomy Festival. Other highlights include swimming below Panagia Poulati, tasting manoura cheese and visiting Agios Symeon monastery at sunset. Nights end on the terrace beneath the Milky Way that defines the spirit of Verina Astra.
