About this property
Folegandros-Cliffhouse - Historic House part of the Castro of Folegandros
A bijou Venetian house with sea view right in the heart of the "Castro" . The 800 year old house is located in the main village of the island , the "Hora " and part of the Venetian Castle - the " Castro " located right on the edge of a high cliff, offering a breath-taking view of the Aegean from its magic sea view veranda. An ideal place to stay as it is the heart of the Village - centrally located - and simultaneously a quite place to stay - as no cars can enter the Castro Area. If you are and individual traveller looking for something different - this historic Cycladic house is the right choice.

Nous sommes venus fin Septembre. Très belle location, très bien placée au cœur de Chora. Très calme. La maison bénéficie d'une vue magnifique et a été rénovée avec beaucoup de soin. Tout a été parfait pour nous. Nous nous y sommes sentis très bien. Aucune réserve.
Absolutely loved Irina’s cliffhouse. All the pics were accurate except the view overlooking the water and cliffs was even better in real life. Irina was very helpful and arranged our arrival. It is a great location steps away from Chora. It’s a funny layout but due to being an 800 year old castle it makes sense. Very charming place for me and my friend to stay. I highly recommend the cliffhouse and Folengandros!
Wir haben das Cliffhouse zu Viert, zwei Paare, gemietet und den Aufenthalt ausschließlich genossen. Hervorragende Lage, traumhafter Blick aufs Meer, absolute Ruhe.
This property let's you live in the heart of Cycladic island village and experience life like a local. Wind your way through the white and blue walking streets, visit a local supermarket to stock your fridge with basics, and easy access to all the restaurants and cafes. The views from the patios are stunning, you are basically at the top of a cliff with sea crashing below you and the famous Panagia church up the hill within view. The property really is 800 years old and thus the layout is a bit quirky and the steep stairs require much focus every time you ascend or descend - not recommended for toddlers or anyone who is not fully mobile. But its all updated and very functional and the living area is extremely comfortable. Would go back in a heartbeat!
