Adamant Suites is a petite hideaway in Fira, on the island of Santorini. It has attracted a loyal following of guests for its sophisticated interiors, impeccable staff and gorgeous ocean-sweeping views.

The facilities

Minimal facilities, owing to its tiny size; the focus here is entirely on the suites. The star of the show is the outdoor pool (those unsteady on their feet should be aware that it is accessible via a steep-ish stone staircase). There's also room service (that only runs until early afternoon) and offers a light snack-style menu. Breakfast is served on the private balconies each morning, and is superb.

The rooms

Each of the Adamant's six suites is lavish and elegant. Each has its own private balcony/terrace and the better ones come with Jacuzzi tubs and sun loungers. Flat screen televisions, DVD players, complimentary wifi and a well-stocked minibar come as standard.
