About Vedema, a Luxury Collection Resort, Santorini

In the hotel’s own words

Tucked away within the medieval village of Megalohori, the enchanting Vedema, a Luxury Collection Resort, has evolved from a 400-year-old winery and a 100-year-old mansion into an authentic, Cycladic-styled property. Dedicated to the needs of seasoned travellers, the resort has gained renown as a charming, luxurious and intimate retreat, encircled by a traditional stone wall and surrounding vineyards that overlook the quaint village.

A stylish, family-friendly resort, Vedema houses 74 spacious suites and villas, all with their own terraces and many with jacuzzis or private pools. The complex of rooms has been traditionally handcrafted to reflect the warmth and sophistication befitting the island. Interiors have been thoughtfully styled by integrating the fresh, angular lines of Cycladic architecture with island-sourced furnishings that offer sumptuous living.

Refined dining venues include Pergola that sits poolside and offers traditional options for breakfast and Trataro Restaurant which is set up around the crisp waters of Vedema’s newer and highly imposing pool, serves Greek cuisine, Mediterranean barbecues and snacks overlooking the emerald vineyards. The resort's signature restaurant, Alati, within the ancient winery cave, evokes a link to the country’s tradition, embodied in the fresh, seasonal treasures. The vineyards that surround the resort are nurtured to produce their own special vintage, available to guests in the historic 400-year-old Canava Wine Bar, providing a fascinating atmospheric backdrop for exploring the world of wine.

Elios Spa at Vedema Resort features a wide array of traditional therapies - with a twist - all aiming to stimulate, rebalance and rejuvenate, in surroundings of soothing Cycladic minimalism, while the fully-equipped fitness center is available for guests wishing to maintain their workout routines during their vacation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does booking through Rialto cost more than booking with the hotel?

No - VIP rates under Marriott STARS always meet or beat hotel's public, flexible rate, and provide valuable amenities and possible upgrades. Rialto also provides the hotel's non-VIP and corporate rates, so you can compare with full transparency.

What is the value of the VIP benefits?

Daily breakfast for two plus the $100 hotel credit come with every stay at this hotel - adding $100-200/day in value. A room upgrade could also be worth a substantial amount, in addition to early check-in / late check-out benefits when available.

Do I earn Marriott Bonvoy points and keep my elite benefits? Is this considered a direct booking or a third-party booking?

Yes. The booking is a direct reservation with the hotel, so it earns Marriott Bonvoy points and elite-night credit, and Marriott Bonvoy elite status benefits apply.

How does this compare to other programs, like through AMEX Fine Hotels & Resorts, or Chase Edit?

Using a hotel's own VIP program may provide higher upgrade priority, additional VIP benefits and promotional rate offers, and a direct relationship with the hotel for special requests. Rialto offers more VIP hotels than any credit card program. In addition, Chase Edit rates can be substantially more expensive as they rarely run promotions whereas AMEX rates are often comparable but do not offer programs such as Upgrade at Booking.

Can my AI assistant book this hotel?

Yes. Connect Rialto to Claude or ChatGPT and ask for rates. You finish the booking on a secure Rialto page. Card details are not sent through the AI chat, so either you would approve the final checkout step and reconfirm all the information, or if you authorize your agent with Computer-Use permissions, it can fill out the checkout form as well.
