Wow, what a cool place. What a great vacation.
The view is stunning, the villa is really well-
appointed, Vanda the caretaker is sweet and a huge
help. Having a kitchen and a clothes washer is a big
bonus. The outdoor areas of the villa are a great
place to hang out -- there are so many outdoor
levels that everybody has their own space if they
want it. I loved the location because there were
plenty of restaurants and places to buy what you
need, etc. and yet you weren't taken over by crowds
when the cruise ships came in (if you want that, the
town of Fira is close by). Also, if you ever need to
rent a car, the car place is close and really friendly.
Anyway, you won't be disappointed. Wish we were
still there!

We were on Santorini from the 9th-16th of August. Our home was this fantastic villa. My
wife and I went with our four children ages 12-18. It would be great for two couples and
maybe three, though the bed in the upper third bedroom is smaller than a queen. We all
had a great time. It was a wonderful location on the island. Fira can be very busy in the
summer with all of cruise ships. The town where the villa is located is smaller and quiet.
If you desire to have more of nightlife and shopping then Fira is an easy 15-20 min walk.
It was nice waking up in the morning and going out onto the deck to eat your breakfast
and look out over the sea, which was 900-1,000 feet below you--almost straight below.
Each morning I would walk to the bakery in town (4 min) and get fresh breakfast pastries
and bread. If you go you will HAVE to go on a chartered boat trip around the Caldera. We
used Blue Lagoon and were very pleased. The captain is a real character from New Jersey,
who is of Greek descent. Would we stay at this same place if we would return to
Santorini ? Absolutely! Great decor and always very clean. Great having a washing
machine so you only need to bring a carry-on bag.

I wholeheartedly agree with each of the previous comments - this villa is quite simply the best place to stay on the island! We (my girlfriends & I) were there for a week in May and couldn't have loved it more. The villa itself is amazing - the pictures really do not show how gorgeous & luxurious the villa is. The view of the caldera from all of the terraces is beautiful, the furnishings both inside & out of the villa are tasteful and comfortable, and the management was helpful and available for anything. The location is ideal - you're basically in the middle of the island - easy to go anywhere, including walking to Fira for restaurants/nightlife or driving to any of the beaches or towns. Stay here. You won't regret it!

Magical. There are so many words to describe our experience but magical is the one that describes it the best. The magic began when the manager escorted us to the property. WOW! It is absolutely amazing. The pictures on the website do not do it justice. The property has been renovated and decorated extremely well. You can tell the owners put a lot of time, effort, and money into this house. I was very hesitant booking a house through the internet, through people I did not know. This was the best decision I have ever made. The owners were so helpful even before I committed to rent the house. When we arrived, the manager sat with us for about 30 minutes recommending where to go and what to see. The manager was always available, and the owners were accessible via e-mail. The location was fantastic. The town is about a 30-40 minute (beautiful) walk to Fira (away from the busy streets and tourist) and about a 20 drive to Oia. If you are staying in Santorini for more than a week I would highly recommend renting this house...you will have privacy, views, space, and will not be disappointed!

We spent a glorious month at the villa and the view in one you will never forget. The house manager is fantastic and made everything comfortable for us including getting our computer working with the house wifi and getting us a great car rental and pick up from the airport and arranging massages for us. Food, fantastic white wine from the Santorini wineries, friendly people. The owner of the villa is extremely easy to work with, responds to all your questions and will be of no concern to you.
Enjoy the Villa for the time of your life!

Comment Text: I stayed at Villa Santorini in May with my two girlfriends and we had an unforgettable vacation. We were a little reluctant since we had not rented from VRBO in the past, but it exceeded our expectations. The Villa is beautiful, the view is breathtaking and situated in an ideal location(imerovigli) which is outside of the hustle and bustle of Fira but close enough to walk (a long stroll but well worth it). I consider myself to have high standards, since I stay in 5 star hotels quite often for int'l business travel, and this accomodation surpassed my expectations and I, personally, think the villa is much more beautiful in person than in the pictures. The house is beautiful, the decor is modern but also holding to the traditional santorini style villa, the amenenties are great - eg beautiful kitchen, fresh robes, maid service, the concierge, great hairdryer and flat iron, surround sound stereo with CDs, a book filled with restaurant recommendations and local attractions, and a great cooling tub (jacuzzi size outside looking over the caldera) etc...The family that owns this house takes great pride and care in their home and are wonderful to work with. I highly recommend this Villa to anyone visiting Santorini. I look forward to going back.
