Where to rent a villa in Greece

Santorini located less than a 45 minute flight south of Athens or 4 hours by boat is one of the most exquisite destination in the world.  It is part of the Cycladic group of Greek islands and is famous for its spectacular sunsets, white washed houses, authentic Greek villages, blue domed churches, fabulous Mediterranean food, volcanic beaches with crystal clear waters and of course the sheer beauty of the Caldera.

Originally named Thira by the Venetians, when they occupied it in the 13th Century, Santorini was formed as a result of a cataclysmic volcanic eruption more than 3600 years ago.  Before the eruption Santorini was a much bigger circular island.  As you stand on the Caldera or cliff top, you can quite clearly see where the middle of the island was replaced by sea after the eruption.

Most of our Santorini luxury villas are built into the Caldera or Cliff top. Each villa boasts the best view on the island. There is literally no bad view from anywhere on the Caldera. Santorini is popular destination for romance, weddings and honeymoons.

The capital Thira is a picture perfect Greek town lined with lovely boutiques, tourist shops, tavernas and fine dining restaurants with beautiful sea views. The second town in Santorini is Oia.  It is located on the most westerly tip and therefore is the place to go to experience the very best sunsets.  Sunset time is a big event in Santorini with people gathering over sunset cocktails to enjoy the amazing sceptical before them.  Oia also has some excellent shopping with plenty of designer shops and charming boutiques.

Mykonos is another favourite island of ours and we are proud to represent some of the best luxury villas in MykonosMykonos is a very short flight from Athens.  If you prefer it is perfectly possible to travel by boat which is also a lovely way to arrive. With its amazing beaches, sparkling blue sea, sunsets, parties, night life, gourmet restaurants, windmills and gorgeous white washed villages. Mykonos is extremely glamorous and chic and attracts celebrities and A listers from around the globe to its shores.

The main town of Mykonos is located right on the sea and is full of stone, which are lined with fabulous designer shops, unique boutiques, art galleries, bars, fine dining restaurants and authentic Greek Tavernas serving only the freshest and best food.

Crete is another one of the beautiful Aegean islands.  Crete is recognised of being the birthplace of Europe’s earliest civilisations and therefore is full of history and culture. It is more mountainous than many of its neighbours with spectacular rock coasts, sandy beaches and beautiful crystal clear waters.  Crete is the largest of all the Greek islands and as a result has an interesting interior landscape full of green and lush mountain terrain. There are many archaeological sites and interesting towns and villages to explore and rent a Crete Villa.

Corfu, located in the Ionian Sea just off the northwest coast of Greece, the island is full of beautiful coves and rugged bays.

One of the interesting places to go in Corfu is the town of Kerkyra which is proud to be on the UNESCO World Heritage list.  The town is beautiful and really well preserved with Byzantine Fortress and ancient monuments. Corfu North part is quieter than the South part of the island with lovely fishing villages and quaint tavernas.  A great way to explore the island is by boat and our concierge Noreen will be delighted to assist you with this.
