When winding up the path to this home, you'll be struck by its traditional beauty. Reminiscent of ancient Greece, the original lime kiln was built by the owner's family over two hundred years ago. Given the rustic look of this stunning villa, you wouldn't expect to see Smeg appliances, Smart TVs, and Simmons mattresses. The blend of the old meets the new is perfectly done. It's chic and comfortable while retaining that quintessentially Santorini charm. Swing in the hammock, glide through the infinity pool, and lounge as you watch the sun dance on the Aegean Sea. The sea becomes increasingly tempting, you'll probably want to make your way to the lovely Monolithos Beach, a thirteen-minute drive away. Santorini isn't known for its beaches, but you can count on Monolithos for its soft sand, inviting waters, and plenty of sun loungers. When you get back salty and freckly, you'll fall in love with the home's lime kiln walls all over again. Enjoy a nice, refreshing drink on the outdoor sofas as you watch the sun dip into the Aegean's inky waters, leaving the sky in pink and orange hues in its wake. When it comes to dinnertime, Santorini isn't short of restaurants. The closest being around seven minutes away by foot – enjoy all of the souvlaki, moussaka, and dolmades that your stomach can muster.

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...
