"Folegandros’s first 5-star resort sits in a bird reserve on the southeastern coast near Chora, with 27 stone-built suites and villas (using rock excavated on-site) and private, solar-heated infinity pools spilling over the cliffs. I drift between the cliff-edge main pool with swim-up cocktail bar and the dining venues curated by Michelin-starred chef Lefteris Lazarou, who cooks with ingredients from the resort’s organic farm for a true farm-to-table experience, and I explore the island in an electric mini moke or Fiat 500 rented right from the hotel." - Monica Mendal, Elly Leavitt

"A luxury boutique cliffside hotel on a small Cycladic island composed of 30 bioclimatic villas, featuring a solar‑powered infinity pool and commanding views of the Aegean Sea—presented as a quieter alternative to busier Greek islands." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.

"Gundari is built with rock from the site, designed to match the island's wild beauty and dramatic landscapes." - MICHELIN Guide
"On rugged Folegandros, this small collection of 27 suites and villas emphasizes the island’s wild beauty through stone-and-wood architecture, native planting, and serene sea vistas; every unit includes a pool. The clifftop spa uses native herbs and tonics, the restaurant sources many ingredients from an on-site organic garden, and a distinctive bar is styled as a vinyl listening space inspired by Japanese jazz kissatens." - Nicola Chilton
