Our private oasis for the week is on a private property located at Baxedes of Oia on Santorini Island, less than 2 miles from the center of Oia village and 600ft from the most beautiful beach of Oia. In our spacious surroundings, you can walk between palm trees and fig trees and let your stress dissolve, in hammocks between the trees, by the pool, or on the terrace or your own balcony.

Santorini offers agricultural produce of exquisite quality and incomparable taste due to both its unique climate and volcanic soil.

Expect to experience amazing cherry tomatoes, white aubergines, local cucumbers (katsounia), round zucchinis, string beans (ampelofasoula), grapes, melons and watermelons. You might like to take a stroll into the vegetable garden and get acquainted with the renowned, dry varieties which grow on the island and taste the fruit of our fig trees which surround your bungalows.
