This summer we had a very distinguished guest at Verina Astra. Rachel Howard with her beautiful family visited us for a few days in order to prepare an article on food in Sifnos for Condé Nast Traveller.
The view of the blue of the Aegean Sea from Verina Astra is the first thing people are talking about. Guests are raving about the magic view from the rooms and the verandas.
When we picked the location for Verina Astra, we were confident that the strongest asset of the new luxury boutique hotel would be the view to the Aegean Sea with Paros and Antiparos at the distance.
Michael Magee first came to Sifnos last May in order to work on the documentary he is preparing for the painter Christian Brechneff, who spent many years on the island.
When we first started talking about Christian Brechneff’s book back in January, nobody expected that all these discussions would have led to such an evening of magic.
