WHAT IS ANDREW HARPER?

Authentic, honest reviews, since 1979

For over 40 years, our editors have traveled the globe incognito to discover exceptional hideaways and experiences for Andrew Harper members.

“The idea for this newsletter back in 1979 — to share information about peaceful and unspoiled sanctuaries with a limited and compatible group of sophisticated travelers — remains at the core of its identity today.”

“Our first hotel on Koh Samui was freshly in the spotlight due to its star turn on the ‘The White Lotus.’”

“Each time I donned a mask and wet suit, I experienced moments of pure awe.”

Hotel Aristide

Syros, Greece

This stylish nine-room guesthouse occupies a beautifully restored 19th-century mansion in Ermoupoli, the largest town on the pleasant island of Syros.

“Escorted to our suite, Naxos, we felt like privileged houseguests. The vaulted-ceilinged room came with whitewashed walls, a contemporary chandelier and a Juliet balcony with views toward Mykonos and Tinos.”
– ANDREW HARPER
“The Aristide is an establishment of great charm and character, an ideal base from which to discover one of the most delightful of the lesser-known Greek islands.”
