This traditional, cave-style villa lies within Finikia – a pretty coastal village between Oia and Fira. From a few steps away, you can join the walking path that covers the dramatic volcanic landscape between Oia and Fira, with Oia a twenty-minute walk away and Fira around two hours in the other direction. Of course, if you want to reach the island’s capital a little faster, it’s a twenty-minute drive. Within Finikia itself, you’ve got a handful of pretty restaurants serving Santorini specialities and ancient churches looking out over the Caldera.
At the villa, there’s no denying the highlight is the private terrace with its view over the patchwork of fields to the deep blue sea. A jetted plunge pool offers a place to cool off from the Santorini sun with loungers to dry off after. We love the boho vibe of the wicker hanging chair, scattered floor cushions and artsy rugs out here.
Cave-like rooms inside are a nod to the island’s tradition, and thick walls keep things naturally cool. The vaulted living room is a refreshingly crisp white and its wall of windows is reminiscent of Santorini’s famous ancient churches. If you’re looking for a luxury spot that embraces Santorini’s ancient architecture, this is the place for you.
