Gundari Resort, Folegandros’ first luxury boutique resort, offers a serene escape amidst the rugged beauty of the Cycladic archipelago. While neighboring islands like Milos and Santorini hum with activity, Folegandros remains a tranquil hideaway. Gundari capitalizes on this peaceful atmosphere, perched on cliffs that overlook the Aegean, with panoramic views that feel worlds away from the buzz of traditional tourist spots.
The resort’s architecture blends seamlessly with the landscape, using local limestone to create a natural aesthetic. The 27 suites and villas, many of which are subterranean, are designed to harmonize with the island’s environment. Each room offers understated luxury, with infinity pools that melt into the horizon and spacious interiors that prioritize comfort and simplicity. Solar-heated pools, turntables with curated vinyl, and earthy design elements add to Gundari’s unique appeal.
Dining at Gundari is an experience led by Greece’s first Michelin-starred chef, Lefteris Lazarou. Guests are treated to farm-to-table cuisine emphasizing seafood while enjoying breathtaking sea views and expertly crafted cocktails. The resort’s spa, featuring treatments incorporating native herbs and sound baths, emphasizes holistic self-care, creating a true sanctuary of relaxation.
Whether exploring the island on electric bikes, hiking its trails, or taking a private boat tour of the coastline, Gundari Resort offers an unparalleled blend of luxury, authenticity, and adventure.
