Set on the coast of Santorini, amongst unspoilt countryside and rolling vineyards that extend down to the sea, this villa is the perfect getaway to Greece’s most desirable island. Built in local stone, the whitewashed walls are home to smooth curves and arches in the classic Cycladic style. The interiors reflect the natural surroundings, with pale wooden floors, and a light colour palette with splashes of sea blue. Outside you’ll be treated to unparalleled views of the Santorini caldera, and the Aegean sea. The villa is split across two levels, with the living room, kitchenette and two bedrooms downstairs, and the third bedroom upstairs leading out onto a peaceful balcony. All of the bedrooms have hotel quality linen, as well as soft bathrobes and slippers to relax in.

Start the day with a dip in the pool before breakfast overlooking the sea. This is one of seven adjacent villas, and built into the rock underneath the estate there’s a luxury Cave Spa, where you can book massages and beauty treatments. For a day by the ocean, head 5 kilometres to Caldera Beach, where you can swim inside the volcanic lagoon or go diving. After a day of exploring, come home and relax in the jacuzzi bath before heading out to dinner at an alfresco restaurant in one of Santorini’s picture-perfect squares.
