A short story of how Semeli was born<\/h1>\n

In 2010 our family business bought the structure and the land \u00a0with the vision to transform the\u00a0abandoned soulless\u00a0building into a contemporary hotel in harmony with the surrounding natural environment. As the initial design could not meet the expectations of a modern hotel, a radical transformation was needed. An award-winning Greek architect of the up-and-coming generation, undertook the redesign of the hotel.<\/p>\n

The proposed new plans\u00a0included radical changes and some parts of the initial construction were demolished. The best materials were sourced from all around Greece which required numerous trips to factories, dealers and even the mining fields for choosing the right stone color.<\/p>\n

The combination of contemporary design and traditional natural materials create an ambient yet warm feeling from the first sight. Today, this once\u00a0neglected and abandoned building has been transformed into a stylish \u00a0luxurious\u00a0accommodation.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css_animation=”element_from_fade” css=”.vc_custom_1508920787844{margin-top: 96px !important;margin-bottom: 32px !important;}”][vc_column][qode_elements_holder number_of_columns=”two_columns” alignment_one_column=”center”][qode_elements_holder_item advanced_animations=”no”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
