Ahava: Mineral Botanic rich body butter (hibiscus & fig) | Best in 2014!

Ahava Mineral Botanic rich body butter with hibiscus & fig, best body butters

This is my favorite body butter in 2014 (and I tried a million of them)!!! I don't know if it's because of the phenomenal smell or the instant-luxurious feeling when you apply this cream.
Ahava's "Mineral Botanic rich body butter" with the scent of hibiscus and fig, is a super nourishing and moisturizing formula that instantly softens the skin. It contains "AHAVA's proprietary osmoter" which is actually a concentrate of Dead Sea minerals, shea-butter and the peach butter. This cream has a rich but light texture, and it's great for all skin types including sensitive skin. Definitely a product that I warmly recommend you to try in 2015!

Ovo je moj omiljeni puter za telo u 2014-oj (pored mnostva isprobanih)!!! Ne znam da li je zbog fenomenalnog mirisa ili zbog instant-luksuznog osecaja kada nanesete ovu kremu.
Ahava "Mineral Botanic rich body butter" sa mirisom hibiskusa i smokve, je super hranljiva i hidrantna formula koja momentalno omeksava kozu. Sadrzi "AHAVA proprietary osmoter" koji je zapravo koncentrat minerala iz Mrtvog mora, shea-puter kao i puter od breskve. Ova krema je bogate ali lagane teksture, i odlicna je za sve tipove koze ukljucujuci i osetljivu kozu. Definitivno proizvod koji svima toplo preporucujem u 2015-oj!

Victoria's Secret: Angel Gold fragrance mist

Victoria's Secret Angel Gold fragrance body mist

I'm terribly sorry I missed Victoria's Secret show in London the other day!:D But because of that I added to my (modest yet valuable) VS "home collection" another fragrance mist: "Angel Gold", and by the way got a pair of small angel wings!:)
"Angel Gold" is a fruity-floral mixture with major notes of bergamot, gardenia and musk. Upper fruity notes that you first smell in the air are: pear, kumquat, sorbet of red berries, pomelo blossom, orange cream. Then slowly you smell middle floral notes: jasmine flowers, gardenia, tulips, peony... And finally you're seduced by the sensual base notes: musk, vanilla, sandalwood and amber...

Zaista mi je zao sto sam propustila Victoria's Secret show u Londonu pre neki dan!:D I zbog toga sam svojoj (skromnoj ali vrednoj) VS "kucnoj kolekciji" dodala jos jednu vodicu za telo: "Angel Gold", i usput dobila par malih andjeoskih krila!:)
"Angel Gold" je vockasto-cvetna mesavina sa glavnim notama bergamota, gardenije i mosusa. Gornje vockaste note koje se prvo osete u vazduhu jesu: kruska, kumquat, sorbet od crvene bobice, cvet grejpa, krem od narandze. Zatim se polako oseca miris srednjih cvetnih nota: cveta jasmina, gardenije, lale, bozura... I na kraju cula bude senzualne donje note: mosusa, vanile, sandalovine i ambera...

How-to repair broken makeup | DIY Bronzer/Powder (step by step)

How to repair broken makeup, DIY bronzer and powder

I hate when I accidentally drop the compact powder/blush/bronzer/eye-shadow, and then it breaks into hundreds of pieces and turns into dust! Especially if it's my favorite bronzer or powder! Grrr, really irritating experience! Luckily I found a solution which helps me to return the product into a nearly-original condition! Plus the same solution is good if you want to turn some makeup powder product (like loose powder or powder eye shadow) into a solid matter! See below how you can do it!

Mrzim kada slucajno ispustim kompaktni puder/rumenilo/bronzer/senku za oci pa se razbiju u sto parcica ili se pretvore u prah! Narocito ako se recimo radi o omiljenom bronzeru ili puderu! Grrr, zaista iritirajuce iskustvo! Srecom nasla sam resenje koji mi pomaze da proizvod vratim u skoro-pa-pocetno stanje! Plus isto resenje je dobro i ako zelite da bilo koji makeup proizvod u prahu (npr. puder u prahu ili senku za oci u prahu) pretvorite u solidnu/cvrstu materiju!  Pogledajte u nastavku kako!

Santorini :: Random Beauty (part 2)

Imerovigli Santorini photos
Imerovigli

Looking at the summer images during the gloomy and cold autumn (and winter) days has always been my recipe for a "quick warming"! I know that this is the case with you as well, because you've said countless times how much you love "summer content" on my blog during the "non-summer days"!
So here are some pictures that show the natural beauty of Santorini, which I have not shared with you. If you missed the first part of the pictures, see this post!!

Gledanje letnjih slika tokom tmurnih i hladnih jesenjih (kao i zimskih) dana je oduvek bio moj recept za "brzo zagrevanje"! Znam da je to situacija i sa vama, jer ste mi bezbroj puta rekli koliko volite "letnji sadrzaj" na mom blogu tokom "ne-letnjih dana"!
Stoga evo nekoliko slika koje prikazuju prirodnu lepotu Santorinija, a koje nisam podelila sa vama. Ako ste preskocili prvi deo slika pogledajte ovaj post!!

PLAKES beach | Ios island

Plakes beach, Ios

Plakes beach is located after Kalamos beach (read here), so these two beaches we visited in the same day. Plakes beach is small and very beautiful beach of Ios island, with wonderful soft sand and very calm waters, far away some 15 kilometers from the capital Chora. It is not organized, and not so easy to access, but it is definitely worth a visit!

Plakes plaza se nalazi nakon Kalamos plaze (procitajte ovde), tako da smo ove dve plaze obisli u istom danu. Plakes plaza je omanja i vrlo lepa plaza ostrva Ios, sa divnim mekanim peskom i izuzetno mirnom vodom, udaljena nekih 15-tak kilometara od glavnog grada Hore. Nije organizovana, i nije laka za pristup, ali je definitivno vredna posete!

Manganari beach (Ios, part 2)

Manganari beach Ios island

Manganari beach we visited twice. First before going to Santorini (read it here), and a second time after that. The second time was even less people, just the sound of small waves... Ok from time to time also the sound of battle games that my babe was playing: spat-boom-bang-boom-has-hus-bang-bang-bang-bang-bang. But that's a holiday as well, or I became too tolerant...:D
Read more below...

Manganari plazu smo posetili dva puta. Prvi put pre odlaska na Santorini (procitajte ovde), i drugi put nakon toga. Drugi put je cak bilo manje ljudi, mir i tisina svuda oko nas, samo zvuk malih talasa.. Ok i s vremena na vreme zvuk borbene igrice koju je moj dragi igrao: spat-bum-tras-bum-has-hus-beng-beng-beng-beng-beng. Ali i to je odmor, ili sam ja postala previse tolerantna...:D

Liostasi hotel & spa :: Exterior design + VIDEO

Liostasi hotel & spa exterior look and design

We're approaching the end of the story about "Liostasi hotel & spa", which is one of the most luxurious hotels in Ios, perhaps the most luxurious one! It seems to me that I showed you absolutely every "corner", there are only pictures of the suite where we spent our last night.
Traveling is my passion, and when I travel I especially like to photograph the landscape and the hotels where I stay. I do not need any specific inspiration as all these places have the exceptional beauty. The visual beauty that I love to capture with my camera and then share here on the blog with all of you who (like me) have the weakness for the aesthetic appearance.
That's why today I'm showing you the pictures of the exterior look of "Liostasi" hotel, which is a symbol of modern design. And as a gift you get a short video!

Blizimo se kraju price o "Liostasi hotel & spa", koji je jedan od najluksuznijih hotela na Iosu, mozda i najluksuzniji! Cini mi se da sam vam pokazala apsolutno sve "coskove", ostale su jos samo slike apartmana u kojem smo odseli poslednje vece.
Putovanja su moja strast, i dok putujem posebno volim da slikam predele kroz koje prolazim i hotele u kojima odsedam. Nije mi potrebna neka specificna inspiracija jer sva ova mesta odizu izuzetnom lepotom. Vizuelnom lepotom koju volim da uslikam i potom podelim na blogu, sa svima vama kojima je (kao i meni) estetski izgled slabost.
Zato vam danas pokazujem slike spoljasnjeg izgleda "Liostasi" hotela, koji je simbol modernog dizajna. A kao poklon dobijate i kratak video!

Pool bar :: Liostasi hotel & spa (Ios)

Liostasi hotel & spa (Ios, Greece), pool bar

You saw in one of the previous posts how the hotel pool at "Liostasi" looks like. Back then I promised to show you also the pictures of the hotel bar located by the pool...
The bar is open from early morning until late evening hours, both for hotel guests and for all other visitors. You can use chic sunbeds, sit on high bar chairs, chill out on a big puffy pillows or wait for the sunset on the wooden chairs that are facing the sea. And all this while sipping refreshingly cold frape and homemade lemonade, or enjoying a glass of quality wine and one of the many creative cocktails such as "Pina con ron" or "Bitter water sour"...

Videli ste u jednom od prethodnih postova kako izgleda bazen "Liostasi" hotela. Tada sam obecala da cu vam pokazati i slike hotelskog bara koji se nalazi pored bazena...
Bar je otvoren od ranog prepodneva pa sve do kasnih vecernjih casova, kako za goste hotela tako i za sve ostale posetioce. Mozete lezati na lezaljkama, sedeti na visokim stolicama bara, izlezavati se na velikim pufnastim jastucima ili cekati zalazak sunca na drvenim stolicama koje su okrenute ka moru. I sve to dok pijuckate osvezavajuce hladan frape i domacu limunadu, ili uzivate u casi kvalitetnog vina i nekom od brojnih kreativnih koktela kao sto je "Pina con ron" ili "Bitter water sour"...

Oia at night

Oia at night Santorini island

Oia is a place in Santorini that I really love! Although the pedestrian zone has a peaceful character (despite the large number of people walking every night) than the one in the capital city, it still carries a specific note of sophistication and elegance. A lot of jewelry stores (where I always stop to admire), souvenir shops, a few fashion boutiques, a couple of galleries, restaurants and taverns that were surprisingly crowded this year in the month of September...
But for me the people, in this case tourists, give a special touch to any place. By now I'm used to see the people who walk the streets of Santorini smiling, in a good and friendly mood, with fine manners. But this year the situation was completely different. Instead of friendly smiles a couple of tourists even pushed me because nobody is looking where is going, nor they care. The profile of people who are visiting the island has changed, and I do not know how good it is. But for me Oia will always be beautiful, as such I want to remember it, especially at night, while resting under the moonlight...

Oia je mesto na Santoriniju koje ja stvarno volim! Iako je setalisna zona mirnijeg karaktera (i pored velikog broja ljudi koji svako vece setaju) nego ona u glavnom gradu, ipak nosi jednu specificnu notu sofisticiranosti i elegancije. Puno zlatara i radnji sa nakitom pred kojima ja uvek zastanem, prodavnice suvenira, nekoliko butika za ljubitelje mode, par galerija, restorani i taverne koje su ove godine u septembru mesecu zacudjujuce krcate bile...
Ali po meni ljudi, u ovom slucaju turisti, daju poseban pecat svakom turistickom mestu. Do sada sam navikla da su ljudi koji setaju ulicama Santorinija nasmejani, u dobrom raspolozenju, ljubazni i sa finim manirima. Medjutim ove godine je situacija bila potpuno drugacija. Umesto ljubaznog osmeha par turista me je cak i gurnulo jer niko ne gleda kuda ide, niti ih je briga. Profil ljudi koji posecuju ostrvo se promenio, i ne znam koliko je to dobro. Ali meni ce Oia uvek biti lepa jer takvu zelim da je pamtim, narocito nocu, dok odmara obasjana mesecinom...

Hair update: New haircolor + haircut

Dark brown hair color for blue eyes

I recently cut my hair a bit, and refreshed the color that is slightly darker now and more suitable for colder period that is coming (or has already come)... My hairstylist Lena had "extremely good day" and she allowed me to pick a darker brown shade (which btw never but never happens), so I better enjoy this color while I still can!

Nedavno sam malo skratila kosu, i osvezila boju koja je sada za nijansu tamnija i pogodnija za hladniji period koji nam dolazi (ili je vec dosao)... Moja frizerka Lena je imala "izuzetno dobar dan" pa me je pustila da izaberem tamniju braon nijansu (sto se inace nikad ali nikad ne desava), tako da je bolje da uzivam u ovoj boji dok jos mogu!

Margarita bar (at night) :: Ios Palace hotel & spa

Margarita bar, Ios palace hotel & spa

Mylopotas beach (see here) is approximately 5 minutes away from the hotel where we were staying, so one night instead of the usual walk around Ios town, we spontaneously decided to have a drink at some bar/cafe on the beach and to see how the whole bay looks like at night. Given that everything was half empty, just when we thought to return to our hotel, we saw some dimmed pink lights at the beginning of the bay. The lights were coming from "Ios Palace hotel & spa", a luxury boutique hotel with 4 stars, actually from "Margarita bar" which is a part of this hotel.

Milopotas plaza (pogledajte ovde) se nalazi na nekih 5min od hotela u kojem smo mi odseli, te smo jedno vece umesto uobicajene setnje gradom spontano odlucili da popijemo pice u nekom baru/kaficu na ovoj plazi i da vidimo kako citav zaliv izgleda uvece. S obzirom da je sve bilo poluprazno, taman kad smo pomislili da se vratimo u nas hotel videli smo neka prigusena ruzicasta svetla na samom pocetku zaliva. Svetla su dopirala iz "Ios Palace hotel & spa", luksuznog boutique hotela sa 4 zvezdice, zapravo iz "Margarita bara" koji je deo ovog hotela.

Grandma's restaurant :: Liostasi hotel & spa (Ios)

Grandma's restaurant, Liostasi hotel & spa

"Grandma's" restaurant, which is a part of "Liostasi hotel & spa", is one of the places on the island of Ios, that is generously recommended to the tourists, especially when it comes to dinner. Actually, exclusively when it comes to dinner as the restaurant works after 7pm...
"Grandma's" is located within the hotel where we stayed at. In the morning the breakfast is served here (more about that in this post). And up to 7pm there is another menu based on the lighter meals which can be served to hotel guests, so many people decide to have a lunch here, especially when they spend the day by the pool. For example two times in the late afternoon I ordered my favorite food- grilled eggplants.
Anyway, I wanted to show you the look of the restaurant before opening at 7pm, while it's still lit by the sun that slowly sinks behind the horizon...

"Grandma's" restoran, koji je deo "Liostasi hotel & spa", je jedno od mesta na ostrvu Ios koje se velikodusno preporucuje turistima, narocito kada je vecera u pitanju. Zapravo i jedino kada je vecera u pitanju jer restoran radi tek nakon 19h...
"Grandma's" se nalazi u okviru hotela u kojem smo odsedali. Ujutru se recimo ovde sluzi dorucak (vise o tome u ovom postu). I sve do 19h casova postoji drugi jelovnik koji se bazira na laksim jelima koja se mogu servirati gostima hotela, te se mnogi odlucuju da rucaju ovde narocito kada provode dan pored bazena. Ja sam recimo dva puta u kasnim podnevnim casovima rucala moje omiljeno jelo- grilovane patlidzane. 
Elem htela sam da vam pokazem kako restoran izgleda pred samo otvaranje u 19h, dok je jos obasjan suncem koje polako tone iza horizonta...

Swimming pool :: Liostasi hotel & spa (Ios)

Liostasi hotel & spa main swimming pool

It seems to me that nowadays pools in all the best hotels in the world are the exquisite attraction! Quite often the look of the pool is also one of the major factors when deciding which hotel you will book (I know that's the case with me), especially during the summer holidays...
"Liostasi hotel & spa" has a pool that is suitable both for adults and children. Around the pool there are wooden chairs with chic black cushions and black umbrellas. There are additional wooden chairs that are usually a favorite place for watching the sunset. And for extra refreshment there is always a pool bar but these photos I'll show you another time... And today you can see what the hotel pool looks like!

Cini mi se da su u danasnje vreme bazeni svih boljih hotela u svetu izuzetna atrakcija! Vrlo cesto izgled bazena je takodje jedan od glavnih faktora kada odlucujete za koji cete se hotel opredeliti (znam da je to sa mnom slucaj), narocito tokom letnjeg odmora...
"Liostasi hotel & spa" ima bazen koji je prilagodjen i odraslima i deci. Oko bazena su rasporedjene drvene lezaljke sa sik crnim jastucima i crnim suncobranima. Postoje i dodatne drvene stolice koje su obicno omiljeno mesto za posmatranje zalaska sunca. A za dodatno osvezenje uvek je tu pool bar cije cu vam slike pokazati drugi put... A danas pogledajte kako izgleda hotelski bazen!

After a three-day stay in Santorini, we went back to Ios and of course once again chose "Liostasi hotel & spa". In this apartment, which is the room number 56, we spent only one night, but even that was enough to take some photos for the blog...;)
"Liostasi suite" (just like "Deluxe suite"), is a two level suite with a sea view. Together with the other five suites on two levels it shares the private pool (more on that here)...
See below the detailed description and look of the whole "Liostasi" suite...

Nakon trodnevnog boravka na Santoriniju, vratili smo se na Ios i naravno ponovo se odlucili za "Liostasi hotel & spa". U ovom apartmanu tj sobi broj 56 smo proveli samo jedno vece, ali i to je bilo dovoljno da prikupim neke slicice za blog...;)
"Liostasi suite" (kao i "Deluxe suite") je apartman na dva nivoa sa pogledom na more. Zajedno za ostalih pet apartmana na 2 nivoa deli privatan bazen (vise o tome ovde)...

Mylopotas beach (Ios) + Far Out beach club

Mylopotas beach in Ios island

Mylopotas beach is by far the most famous beach on the whole island of Ios! Many people even consider that it's one of the top 10 beaches in Europe. It is about 1km long and 2km away from the capital Chora. It has the shape of a horseshoe, a delightful sand and crystal clear water.
The beach is well organized from its beginning till the end, with numerous sunbeds and umbrellas. This of course means that you'll find a lot of cafes, bars, taverns and restaurants. One of these places is "Far Out" beach club which is always crowded since this bar is only a small part of the whole complex "Far Out" (hotel, hostel, villas, camping...)!

Milopotas plaza je ubedljivo najpoznatija plaza ostrva Ios! Cak je mnogi smatraju i jednom od 10 najboljih plaza Evrope. Duga je oko 1km i udaljena neka 2km od glavnog grada Hore. Ima oblik potkovice, divan pesak i kristalno cistu vodu.
Plaza je odlicno organizovana citavom svojom duzinom, sa bezbroj lezaljki i suncobrana. To naravno znaci da cete ovde naici na brojne kafice, barove, taverne i restorane. Jedno od takvih mesta je i "Far Out" beach club koji je uvek krcat s obzirom da je ovaj bar samo jedan deo citavog kompleksa "Far Out" (hotel, hostel, vile, kamping...)!

Ios island :: Random beauty (part 2)

Chora Ios island Greece
Chora

Archaeological excavations show that Ios was inhabited since the early Cyclades period (3200-2000 BC), which is actually a period that is known worldwide as the early Bronze Age. The best-known site on the island is Skarkos, where they found the remains of buildings that were reaching up to 3m in height, numerous pottery and tools made ​​of metal, stone and bone.
Another interesting fact is that Homer's mother was from Ios, even the tradition claims that Homer himself was buried here. Physical evidence for this claim does not exist, but the locals proudly show one tomb dedicated to Homer, which is located in the north of the island in the ancient city named Plakotos...
* If you missed the first part of the story about Ios, see "Ios island :: Random beauty (part 1)"...

Arheoloska iskopavanja pokazuju da je Ios bio naseljen jos od ranog Kikladskog perioda (3200-2000 p.n.e.), sto je zapravo period koji je u svetu poznat kao rano bronzano doba. Najpoznatije nalaziste na ostrvu je Skarkos, gde su pronadjeni ostaci zgrada koje su dosezale i do 3m u visinu, brojna grncarija i orudje izradjeno od metala, kamena i kosti. 
Jos jedna zanimljivost je i ta da Homerova majka vodi poreklo sa ovog ostrva, cak je i prema nekim tvrdnjama i sam Homer sahranjen ovde. Fizicki dokazi za tu tvrdnju ne postoje, ali lokalci sa ponosom pokazuju grobnicu posvecenu Homeru koja se nalazi na severu ostrva u antickom gradu pod imenom Plakotos...

JOJO beach bar + CHILLI beach bar (Perivolos, Santorini)

Jojo summer beach bar in Perivolos beach in Santorini

Perivolos beach is located in the south of Santorini, between Vlihada and Perissa. Extremely organized beach, with a large number of bars, cafes and tavernas. The winds that blow often make playful and stronger waves, which is great for the lovers of water sports! The water is clear and transparent, and the ground is a combination of fine gravel and sand in a dark gray (almost black) color. Therefore, on this beach, you can not make even one step without slippers because you will burn your beautiful feet, and I'm not joking at all.
We only had two days to go to the beach. The first day we chose "Chilli" bar since we were going there so many times. The other day we decided to go to "JoJo" bar which is located next to "Chilli", and that's a super cool place as well! These two beach bars are my recommendations if you find yourself on Perivolos beach, and below you can see how each of them looks like!!

Perivolos plaza se nalazi na jugu Santorinija, izmedju Vlihade i Perise. Izuzetno organizovana plaza, sa velikim brojem barova, kafica i taverni. Vetrovi koji duvaju cesto prave nestasne i snaznije talase, sto je odlicno za ljubitelje sportova na vodi! Voda je cista i prozirna, a podloga je kombinacija sitnog sljunka i peska tamno sive (skoro crne) boje. Zato na ovoj plazi ne mozete ni korak napraviti bez papuca jer cete opeci vasa lepa i negovana stopala, i nimalo se ne salim.
Mi smo samo dva dana imali za odlazak na plazu. Prvi dan smo se odlucili za "Chilli" bar jer smo tu poslednjih godina isli. A drugi dan smo izabrali "JoJo" bar koji se nalazi odmah pored "Chilli"-ja, i koji je takodje super mesto! Eto ta dva beach bara su moja preporuka ukoliko se nadjete na Perivolos plazi, a u nastavku pogledajte kako svaki od njih izgleda!!

Aqua Luxury Suites (Imerovigli): Private deck with outdoor jacuzzi/pool

Aqua Luxury Suites hotel executive deck with private pool/jacuzzi

Yesterday I showed you the pictures (check here) of the interior of executive suite in "Aqua Luxury Suites" hotel, and now you can see what it looks like what they call the "private deck"!
The outer space of 45m2 is actually a big private balcony that includes a small pool/jacuzzi, 2 sunbeds (plus umbrella), two armchairs, as well as the terrace with a table where we liked to have a breakfast. It has a wonderful view of the sea and the caldera, and the sun is shinning here from 9am to about 6pm.
I think this is definitely the best part, and the main factor which motivates people to actually book the executive suite! I am even sure that many think of the idea of sleeping outside!:)

Juce sam vam pokazala slike (vidite ovde) unutrasnjosti executive apartmana u "Aqua Luxury Suites" hotelu, a danas mozete videti kako izgleda ono sto oni zovu "private deck"!
Ovaj spoljasnji prostor povrsine 45m2 je zapravo veliki privatni balkon koji obuhvata manji bazen/djakuzi, 2 lezaljke za sunce (plus suncobran), dve vece stolice/fotelje, kao i terasicu sa stolom gde smo mi voleli da doruckujemo. Ima divan pogled na more i kalderu, a sunce obasjava citav prostor od 9h ujutru do nekih 18h.
Mislim da je ovo definitivno najbolji deo i nesto zbog cega se ljudi i zapravo odlucuju za smestaj u executive apartmanu! Cak sam sigurna da mnogima pada na pamet ideja da spavaju napolju!:)

Aqua Luxury Suites (Imerovigli): Executive suite (inside look)

Aqua luxury suites

"Aqua Luxury Suites" is a boutique hotel with five-stars, located in Imerovigli (in my opinion, Imerovigli and Oia offer the best accommodations in Santorini). The hotel consists of three complexes (main complex, complex B and complex C) which are close, and has a total of 10 suites. Almost all suites have sea view as well as the view at caldera and the volcano.
At a time when we decided to go, Santorini was crowded and all accommodation facilities were full. The only thing we found was the executive suite in "Aqua Luxury Suite" hotel, which is the room number 1 because it's on the highest point or better to say at the beginning of the main complex. The interior of this apartment occupies an area of 25m2 and consists of a bedroom with a very comfortable king-size bed (there is also a sofa for sitting) and a bathroom.
Today I share with you pictures of the interior of the apartment, and the rest (private deck with pool and terrace) you will see in the coming posts!

"Aqua Luxury Suites" je hotel "boutique" tipa sa pet zvezdica koji se nalazi u mestu Imerovigli (po mom misljenju Imerovigli i Oia nude najbolji smestaj na Santoriniju). Hotel se sastoji iz 3 kompleksa (glavni kompleks, kompleks B i kompleks C) koji su blizu, i ukupno raspolaze sa 10 apartmana. Skoro svi apartmani imaju pogled na more, kao i pogled na kalderu i vulkan.
U vreme kad smo mi odlucili da idemo, Santorini je bio krcat i svi smestajni kapaciteti su bili popunjeni. Jedino sto smo pronasli je bio executive suite u "Aqua Luxury Suites" hotelu, odnosno soba broj 1 jer se nalazi na najvisoj tacki tj odmah na pocetku glavnog kompleksa. Unutrasnjost ovog apartmana zauzima povrsinu od 25m2, i sastoji se od spavace sobe sa izuzetno udobnim bracnim krevetom (tu je i sofa za sedenje) i kupatila.
Danas sa vama delim slike unutrasnjeg izgleda apartmana, a ostatak tj. privatan bazen i terasu cete videti u narednim postovima!

Santorini :: Random Beauty (part 1)

Imerovigli in Santorini

No matter how many times they visit Santorini, people always remain stunned in front of the "imperfect beauty" of this volcanic island. I'm no exception. This year we were fourth time in Santorini (although only 2-3 days), yet I always find something that fascinates me and makes me pull out my camera to capture that moment...
I've written so much about the island (you can find everything in the blog archive), I shared a lot of pictures so far, but it seems to me that it's never enough, because Santorini I always see with different eyes... or I'm just emotionally attached to the island!;)

Koliko kod puta posecivali Santorini, ljudi uvek ostaju zapanjeni pred "nesavrsenom lepotom" ovog ostrva vulkanskog porekla. Ni ja nisam izuzetak. Iako smo ove godine cetvrti put bili na Santoriniju (doduse samo 2,3 dana), uvek pronalazim nesto sto me fascinira i tera da izvucem kameru kako bih uslikala taj trenutak...
Puno toga sam napisala o ostrvu (mozete sve pronaci u blog arhivi), puno slika sam podelila do sada, ali cini mi se da nikad nije dovoljno, jer Santorini uvek vidim drugim ocima... a mozda sam samo emotivno vezana za ostrvo!;)

Koumbara beach (Ios) & Koumbara taverna

Koumbara taverna in Ios

Koumbara beach is located some 3km from the port, and it can be reached by car/motorbike, by bus or you can simply walk till there (about a half hour walk from the harbor). It's about 300m long and very nicely organized, with golden sand and shallow water. Even dough it's looking at the port of Ios, you hear no noise...
Exactly at the beginning of the beach there is a taverna with the same name "Koumbara" whose design perfectly fits into the environment. Milky white chairs and tables, snow-white walls, warm shades of cane and wooden details, and all that embellished with some decorative elements in the marine-style: shells, small wooden boats, starfish...

Koumbara plaza se nalazi neka 3km od luke, i do nje se moze doci i kolima/motorom, i autobusom ali i peske (nekih pola sata hoda od luke). Duga je oko 300m, sa peskom zlatne boje, i vrlo lepo organizovana. Iako gleda na luku Iosa, do nje ne dopire buka...
Odmah na pocetku plaze nalazi se i istoimena taverna "Koumbara" ciji se dizajn tj izgled savrseno uklapa u okruzenje. Mlecno bele stolice i stolovi, snezno beli zidovi, tople nijanse trske i detalja od drveta, a sve to ukraseno dekorativnim elementima u morskom stilu: skoljke, drveni brodici, morske zvezde...
