Tucked away on the hillside of the traditional village of Exo Gonia, this two-storey villa offers absolute tranquillity. The spacious veranda opens onto breath-taking views of the sparkling blue Aegean and out to the island of Anafi. Drink in the panorama whether you’re soaking up the sun or taking a dip in the private pool. We found that even the most captivating book couldn’t keep our attention for long – eventually our eyes would drift from the page out to sea again. Natural materials and a minimalist style mean that this villa blends with the beautiful surroundings while also offering every comfort. There’s a warmth to the decor that adds to the feeling of calm. Despite feeling a million miles from the hustle and bustle, this property is reassuringly close to everything you might need to enhance your stay. Supermarkets, coffee shops and bakeries are all within striking distance, so you can easily begin your day with a pastry on the veranda. Pyrgos village, a real haven of traditional architecture and unspoiled beauty, is just a seven-minute ride, while beaches like Kamari and Perivolos are five and fifteen minutes away. For vibrant nightlife, Fira is less than a ten-minute drive.... For those evenings when you want to soak up the zen atmosphere of the villa, why not book a private chef to cook for you? Or fire up the barbecue so you can spend an extra hour in the pool, relaxing with the whirlpool jets.

Local guide
About Santorini
There’s so little rain on Santorini that the island’s multiple vineyards are kept watered by overnight sea mist. This striking, volcanic island twists around the crater of an old caldera and the main towns of Fira and Oia are perched high above the azure water. The cafés and restaurants that line Fira’s frontage all boast caldera views, and boat tours run from the old harbour below. Rumour has it that...
