Absolute Peace in a beautiful setting - south villa

This property is one of three adjacent villas set in an acre of private land covered with lots of trees, flowers and cactus. The villa has one bedroom and can accommodate up to 4 people. Quiet and spacious, laid out on two levels, "south villa" is the ideal accommodation for a couple or a family of four. The upper level has the master bedroom and an en-suit bathroom, as well as a balcony to watch your most memorable sunrises. The ground level consists of a living room with a sofa that opens up in a very comfortable bed for two, a fully equipped kitchen, a dining table for 6 people, and a bathroom with shower. The villa looks out to an airy and shaded patio that overlooks the cactus garden. Sea views directly in front of you. Table and chairs and armchairs are provided for relaxing and enjoying a cold drink or having lunch or dinner outdoors. The patio surrounds the villa on the three sides. Facing south, the patio is shaded by a pine tree, a huge ficus tree, a vineyard and an apricot tree. In June you can taste the apricots and in September you can taste the grapes right off the tree. At the rear the patio is shaded by olive trees with excellent mountain views. Barbecue on request. Tastefully decorated, the house will make you feel at home. Our purpose is to make guests feel that they visit their own holiday house in Santorini. The house has its own washing machine and an air-conditioning unit. The master bedroom is also equipped with a ceiling fan.
The villa is separate from the other two, so that each party of guests is not disturbed by the others. Perfect, though, for friends who travel together and want to be close but separate.
The houses are surrounded by one acre of land which carries pine, fig, apricot, lemon, vineyard, olive trees, and a huge collection of cactuses. When the time is right, our guests can taste the fruit right off the trees. Just outside our walls there is three tiny white washed chapels which our visitors are free to visit. Free parking on our property.
Located in the country side in the middle of the distance between the two main centres of the island, Fira and Oia, we have easy and quick access to both Fira and Oia. You will need your own transportation. Both Fira and Oia are only a 10 minute drive from the villa. Santorini is a small island and nothing is too far.
Right down our driveway, there is a small resort with a swimming pool and a restaurant. Our guests are welcome to use their facilities
At walking distance from the house, there is a small secluded beach perfect for children.
Check in time is flexible. Early check-in is possible if there is no other guest checking out the same day. Also late check-in is also possible. Late check-out is possible if there is no other guest checking in the same day. When you arrive, I will here to welcome you and give you the keys and all the information you need about the house and the island.

Great location

Anna and Nikos have a very nice property away from the crowds yet only a few minutes drive from Oia. Don't rely on Google maps - it did not take to the property. Get directions from the hosts. Balcony view of the ocean on the other side from the caldera. Nikos made excellent recommendations for the beach and restaurants. Thank you!

Beautiful Villa in a great location

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Cactus Villas. The hosts were so lovely and were available for any questions we had. They spent time with us upon our arrival to tell us more about the area and help us with planning our activities. The location was great with a rented car, and we were able to tour the full island during our stay. Mornings were lovely on the front porch area, and the breeze in the evening was also perfect for enjoying the beautiful garden and view of the sea. We highly recommend Cactus Villas!

Great place to unwind in a quiet part of Santorini

Villa was very comfortable, spacious living room, and well equipped kitchen. Beautiful outdoor space, with the mountain behind you and views of the sea in front. We liked the location -- no more than a 15-minute drive from Oia, Fira, and the airport, on one of Santorini's quieter areas. The weather in early November was absolutely perfect for the eight days we were at the villa -- but be aware that some restaurants and wineries close in October or cut their hours back. Still, there was much to see and do, and the time flew by.

Perfect for couples who just want to kick back and relax

The villa was light bright and well equipped perfect for couples . We particularly liked the fruit trees especially the figs for breakfast. The sunset at Oia was breathtakingly beautiful a must see .

South Villa at Cactus Villas

Perfect location for our group. Away from the hustle of the caldera activity the Cactus Villas are located on the new road in Pori. It was very easy to get anywhere on the island with our rental car in a short amount of time. The views of the sunrise from the villa balcony rivaled the sunsets from the caldera side. Anna and Nikos have created a lovely garden surrounding the villas filled with cactus, olive and fruit trees. We loved being able to pick figs to eat. Anna and Nikos well helpful in pointing out places to go and have a lovely jewelry shop in Oia. Loved our visit!

Ein toller Urlaub

Tolle Gastgeber, tolle Unterkunft! Man hat echt alles, was man braucht. Vom Balkon im ersten Stock kann man sogar den Sonnenaufgang genießen. Zwar ist die Villa etwas abseits des ganzen Trubels gelegen, wenn man einen Mietwagen hat (und den sollte man sich auf der Insel echt nehmen), hat man alle Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Sehenswürdigkeiten schnell erreicht. Von Anna haben wir sehr viele wertvolle Tipps rund um die Insel bekommen. Alles in einem fanden wir es super, vielen Dank!

Near everything but away from the buzz of the touristy towns, it is the perfect place to be. Very nice and helpful owners staying on site, you feel welcomed and the house is very nice and well equipped. Terrasse is great for the best breakfast with view and under the shades. Very recommended for a family of 4. Efcharisto poly!

Private, peaceful, beautiful cacti garden Villa

Private, peaceful, beautiful cacti garden Villa. We stayed at the north villa. Place was clean and all the amenities were provided. It was nice having 2 washrooms. The owners, Anna and Nikos, were very helpful, kind and quite funny at times. We enjoyed our interactions with them. Good location for the island. Car is definitely needed. Driveway can be hard to locate (needs a better sign) and is rocky and bumpy.

Comfortable Santorini stay

We stayed at Anna and Nikos 1 bedroom/2 bath property on Santorini (Thira) in April. The unit is lovely and our hosts warm and accommodating. Anna oriented us to the sights and restaurants as well as how to navigate the island (and provided the best map ever!) We enjoyed the delicious Santorini wine on the patio!

Sehr schönes Haus mit schönem Garten in ruhiger Lage

Das Haus ist wunderschön, gut ausgestattet und die Vermieter sind super nett und hilfsbereit wenn es um Tips zur Insel geht. Das Meer und ein Hotel mit Pool sind in Fussnähe. In diesem Hotel kann man auch sehr gut frühstücken, baden und/oder an der Bar etwas trinken. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind nicht allzu weit entfert.

Aegean Paradise!

Anna & Nikos were perfect hosts. There place was perfectly located far enough from Fira to provide the privacy you want but close enough to Fira and Oia for sight seeing. There home was well decorated,well equipped, comfortable and spotless. Loved the sea view from the back porch along with the cozy pillowed benches for hanging out in the shade. The Bourgainvilla flowers were stunning! Perfect stay!

Amazing place to stay

We loved our stay here. 3 small rentals and the owners living in a 4th. Stayed with our daughter and it was great. Owners nice and informative on things to do You need a car here for sure 10 min walk to a beach but the nicer beaches are a drive. Quiet part of the island so nice to get some peace and quiet Good wifi and the accommodation had all we needed. I would recommend this place

Lovely!

We had a great stay here with our family of 5. Anna and Nikos were great and gave us lots of tips on where to go and when to avoid certain locations due to cruise ships or crowds. We had a car and explored much of the island within easy distances from the villas. The villa itself was clean and comfortable. Communication was great before our arrival as well. We had no issues and would highly recommend a stay here!

Peaceful!

We stayed here on our honeymoon for just under a week and had a very pleasant experience. The home owners of these Villas were very nice and more than accomadating. They both showed showed us some of the best sights to see during our stay of which helped out a lot. We stayed in the South Villa during our time here. We also were able to see the North Villa upon arriving, both nice but we preferred the South for the larger bed. Waking up here was fantastic each day. The ocean breeze and morning sun would gently awaken us through our terrace outside our bedroom The property is covered with beautiful cactuses, flowers and a couple apricot trees that were unbelievably delicious. It was amazing to have a fresh apricot with breakfast. Location for us was perfect. The Villas sit close to everything, the airport, Oai, Fira and in just a short 30 minute drive we found ourselves at the southern most tip of Santorini. I would HIGHLY reccomend getting a car, not only to go to and from places like the cities to the Villas but to EXPLORE! The best thing by far about Santorini was taking a car and just driving and finding random places. There's so much more to see than the basics like Oai and Fira, which are still neat but we personally found the best sights outside the tourist traps and gift shops. The small winding streets, the country side, seeing all the faces of where the island met the ocean and best of all..stopping and going when YOU want! Fantastic stay.
