Dramatically situated 300 metres above the sea on the edge of a cliff, in the peaceful village of Imerovigli, this beautifully restored ‘canava’ (wine cellar) has uninterrupted views of the Caldera. Imerovigli is the highest point on the island and its castle, Skaros, dating from 1207, is well worth a visit. From Imerovigli, there is an old footpath to the capital of the island, Fira, a 20-minute walk offering amazing views. The picturesque village also offers plenty of restaurants and traditional tavernas. A short walk down from the central parking area in the village square will lead you to the entrance of the property.
The accommodation consists of two separate units, each for two people, but is rented as a whole. It is ideally suited for two couples wanting to holiday together, yet retaining some independence. The two living areas are joined together by exterior stairs. Each of the units also has its own delightful furnished shaded terrace, wonderful for relaxing while enjoying the idyllic surroundings and views. There is a new outdoor jacuzzi on the upper terrace. The villa has a Mediterranean feel and is classified as a traditional Santorini 'yposkafa' dwelling.
The interiors have been renovated with stylish simplicity, retaining the smooth-edged architectural features of the original building, and decorated and furnished almost entirely in white. Amenities include one manual, 5-seat car (third party insurance and unlimited kilometers included); two large verandahs with sun loungers; satellite TV, DVD player and iPod, wi-fi internet and a complimentary mobile phone. Additional services include transfers from/to Santorini port or airport, and a porter to assist with luggage. Private masseuse on request. Private tour guide and boat charters on request.
Minimum stay is 3 nights.
