Beachfront holiday rental in Southern Aegean

From the minute I met the hosts at the ferry port I knew this vacation was going to be special! They are both so warm and welcoming and I now have new friends for life. The home was the ideal place that I dreamed of...it overlooks the Aegean Sea, just 10 minutes outside of the port city, close to a grocery market and numerous beaches. The sunset right from the porch or from the shore is heavenly and different every night. There's a path down the cliffside right to the water. The home itself is exactly as it appears in the description and the pictures. I absolutely plan to visit here again as this home is exactly the relaxing environment I was hoping for. I highly recommend it!

Our villa was stunning with a most beautiful sea view. It was also extremely private. A short bus ride away from Thira and a short taxi from Oia. The host and her entire team were some of the most friendly and welcoming people we've come across on our travels. It is clear that they have a deep love for Santorini which has definitely rubbed off on us! Safe that when we go back we will be hoping to stay with them again be it in this property or one of their many others on the island. ευχαριστώ!

I cannot describe how peaceful this place is. We feel so lucky to have experienced this sanctuary! Leo is unbelievably accommodating, like no other host we’ve had - he went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and relaxed. The place is beautifully positioned and equipped and it’s the perfect place to be still and quiet and unwind. We visited for the first few nights of our honeymoon and it was complete perfection. We will come back! Thank you Leo!!

We are very grateful to Katerina for the stay. We had a delightful week in this stunning and remote location. Katerina was very helpful in all respects.

Really nice stay, taxi service was very helpful and the villa views were beautiful. Only issue is there aren’t any enough sun beds for the number of guests if all the villas were full.

Amazing location, home and host! The home looked just like the photos and had the most incredible view. It was easy to access and the host was always responsive and went above in beyond to take care of us. Would definitely recommend and return again! Thank you!

Beautiful villa — easily walkable to the beach and with excellent views of the sea and surrounding hills. Clean & functional. Maria at the Airbnb gives great recommendations for restaurants and activities nearby.

Kostas was absolutely amazing! Came to the airport and took us to the accomodation, very clean property, beautiful pool area and two steps to the beach. Amazing amazing amazing, will be back

We had such a memorable stay! The location is like something out of a dream—tucked into volcanic rock by the sea, it feels like a hidden pirate cove at night. The suite was unique and thoughtfully designed, a refreshing change from the usual. While people may glance at their reflections in the windows, the space feels completely private. The warm rooftop pool is a highlight, with stunning views across the bay. The 200-step walk up to Oia isn’t difficult and is filled with breathtaking views and sunsets along the way. The host was incredibly responsive and friendly, making everything from communication to transfers seamless. A special thanks for quickly handling a request—it really made us feel cared for. The cleaning lady was also lovely: efficient and always friendly. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a truly special and unforgettable place to stay!

Beautiful place, great for families. Lots of toys and even a potty for the kids! Cleaner came mid week which was not necessary but so great. Beach is a 3 min walk. Really need a car to get there which was fine for us! Thanks for everything.

Fabulous place to stay :)

We absolutely loved our stay here. The views are gorgeous, the private beach was incredible, the house was super spacious, and they were very helpful and responsive.

We had a fantastic stay at this villa in Crete! The location was absolutely perfect—centrally positioned on the island, it made exploring both the east and west sides, as well as all the nearby towns, super convenient. The house itself had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and the hosts went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and supported throughout our visit. The grounds were impeccably maintained and much larger than the photos portray. One of the highlights was the charming taverna right next door, and there were plenty of other great restaurants less than 10 minutes away by car. The warm hospitality from everyone we met made it feel like a true home away from home. We can’t wait to return one day and would wholeheartedly recommend this villa to anyone planning a trip to Crete.

Such a beautiful place! The villas are situated in such a quiet area, also you get maximum privacy as the villas are pretty distant from each other. The staff is super friendly and SO helpful making the stay as enjoyable as it gets. The villas are fully equipped with everything you could ever need. I could recommend this place more!

The place was beautiful and amazing and the view was gorgeous! The pictures were very accurate. It was very clean and spacious. Marina and Maria were very responsive and helpful. It is a very peaceful place. It is up a very steep hill and you need to rent a car as it is not walking distance to anywhere but the beach. You could walk 2 miles on the beach to Plaka which had plenty of restaurants and beaches. Delivery takeout is a possibility from Wolt and they were very efficient and reasonably priced. I would recommend a stay here for the amazing views and the amount of space.

We had a wonderful 11 days in Villa Cathrin. The proximity to the sea is fantastic, the complex offers many possibilities to make the holiday days varied (table tennis, all kinds of sand toys, board games, billiards). We had complete peace and enjoyed the seclusion. The welcome was so warm - thank you very much again for that. Please note: You absolutely need a car, because the villa is very secluded. Unfortunately, there were also too few towels for us. So, it's better to bring a few more. The accommodation is already a bit outdated. The pool pump is very loud at night, so the windows often had to be closed. This may be a problem in the height of summer. However, these points did not weaken our positive experience and we would come back at any time. Highly recommended!

Niki's boat house was amazing. It felt like a luxury stay in a gorgeous secluded place . We were stunned when we walked in and saw how beautiful his place was, it's even better than the pictures. Niki gave helpful directions on where to park and how to get to the stay before we checked in. During our stay we needed extra towels and I messaged him asking where I could find some. Niki responded quickly and personally brought us more towels within the hour. We absolutely recommend staying here , you won't regret it!

The best balcony overlooking the best swimming spot in all of Milos. What a treat to wake up and fall asleep here! You won’t want to leave. Beautiful clear waters and incredible white cliffs surround the bay. We stocked up at the supermarket and bakeries before settling in here for three nights and had such a gorgeous and relaxing time. Desy was really friendly and helpful, even letting us check in early. We loved eating sticky baklava and drinking coffee on the balcony before basking in the hot sun then having a gorgeous swim in the bay below. You’re guaranteed to feel like kings and queens of Firopotamos staying here.

Magical place, one of the most amazing airbnb i have ever been to.

We had an incredible stay in Naxos because of Angelos and Mike’s amazing home and hospitality. The home itself is absolutely stunning and an oasis, however what made our experience so wonderful was how helpful and generous the owner are with their time with everything including arranging transportation from the port, showing us around, getting groceries and food, and making sure we were taken care of. The home is at the top of a hill with an amazing view. There are beaches very close by and restaurants, and grocery stores within 20 minute walking distance. We decided not to rent a car and had to do a healthy walk uphill when we were coming back from the beach or dinner which we didn’t mind and Angelos was incredibly helpful, if needed. Overall this was one of the best air bnb experiences and I recommend it 100% for a relaxing and beautiful stay in Naxos

The place was amazing!! Everything was clean and in order and the location was pristine. It was on the sand of an unpopular, but beautiful, beach which made it quiet and private. I recommend this place to anyone going to Milos!

We absolutely loved this place! Location was perfect! it has all the amenities/ extras you could ask for. Our hostess, Maria, was wonderful & very helpful!! I highly recommend this Airbnb!! Lisa

Everything was perfect! The place is fabulous. The location, the comfort, the decor, the amenities...everything is provided for a pleasant stay. The must-sees are the splendid view of the harbour and direct access to the sea by this charming little staircase. Finally, the discreet, warm and efficient welcome. If we have to return to Amorgos, we will return to Aleksandra's without hesitation! We strongly recommend!

Manolis' place is very special and we were so happy to stay for a week. We immediately connected to the lovely, warm space, surrounded by his Grandmother's artwork and the handmade ceramics. The location is spectacular and the bay is protected. The outdoor deck is wonderful and sunny and we enjoyed swapping travel stories with our neighbours. Manolis goes above and beyond and is without doubt the best Airbnb host we have ever encountered. He met us at the ferry, assisted us with car hire and settled us into the house in person. The house is filled with lots of treats, including homemade sweets. Later during our stay he showed us around the family pottery laboratory (Lempesis Ceramics) and also the gallery which was an absolute highlight of our stay. Arriving home with our handmade ceramics has been a fabulous reminder of a truly unforgettable holiday. We will definitely be back and cannot wait!
