Coronae Borealis is a traditional private villa complex in Oia Santorini with unique terraces overlooking the volcano and the caldera. Its name comes from the homonymous small constellation of the northern sky, where according to the legends of Greek mythology, it was originally a crown made by Hephaestus and given to Ariadne, the daughter of King Minos, at her marriage with Dionysus. Later Dionysus placed the crown in the sky in her honor.

For the shamans of ancient Mexico it was associated with action. When acting or deciding, it was important that the constellation would be at its zenith. When in dreaming, it enabled them to enter other worlds. Also it indicated whether action on an impulse should be taken immediately or a period of time had to be waited first. This indication was the time necessary for the constellation to reach the zenith at the day of the person's birth.

In Oia Santorini, Coronae Borealis can be seen right above us during the early night hours and in the summer months. Living in this dreamt place, the magnificent view to the caldera and the interplay of the sun, sea and sky create a magic scene during the day, while at night dreaming is enabled to its maximum.

The villas are located at the center of Oia close to all facilities, restaurants and shops, a few minutes away from the famous Oia castle sunset viewpoint. Located following the steps towards the small port of Armeni, the houses are situated in a unique, secluded and quiet area. Traditionally, Santorini is very famous for its volcanic soil and rocks, its delicious fava beans and its sweet and dry wine varieties. We organize several day boat trips to visit the twin island of Santorini, Thirassia and the volcano. We wish everyone a great stay and to enjoy our beautiful island.
