AMPR Global Expands its Client Portfolio with the Addition of Empiria Group – A Leading Hospitality Brand in Greece 

A unique collection of award-winning luxury hotels, resorts & villas in Santorini, Paros and Peloponnese

Empiria Group: Mystique, a Luxury Collection Hotel

AMPR Global announces the addition of Empiria Group, a leading hospitality brand in Greece, has been added to its client roster. Known for its luxurious properties that blend world-class service, elegant design and champion sustainability, authenticity and innovation, the group’s portfolio features three awarded five-star hotels and several luxurious villas in Santorini including Vedema, Mystique and Istoria, two five-star hotels in Paros – including Parilio and Cosme, as well as Korona Boutique Hotel in Peloponnese. 

Each property has a distinct character offering elevated experiences underpinned by four fundamental values – finding joy, always elevating, exuding passion and being a leader in the field. By emphasising sublime regional architecture, holistic wellbeing, and meaningful experiences that reflect the local culture, Empiria Group immerses guests in the carefree state of mind that defines the authentic Cycladic Island life for more than 30 years.

The privately owned hospitality group (formerly known as Kanava Hotels & Resorts), was created in 1989 by Antonis Eliopoulos, and joined by his wife Kalia Konstantinidou – both sharing a deep passion for hospitality.

With a commitment to social, cultural and environmental stewardship and a mission to reframe luxury hospitality to include profound respect for the environment, they are carefully redefining how each property is designed and operated, integrating sustainability, as well as a supportive and regenerative environment for all their ecosystems.

The goal is to create ‘spaces for joy’ in which curated experiences connect guests to what matters the most. Each property is a space to explore, discover, relax and rebalance. All resorts are spaces where spontaneity and joy flourish and travelers can experience the richness of Greek culture and hospitality.
