Find beach rentals near Santorini Caldera

everything was amazing and Anna was so accommodating to us the whole time !

Illusion Villa was a gem that I was lucky to find on Santorini for our family of six. The villa was incredible and the outside patio gardens, hot tub and barbecue were amazing. We were far away from the huge crowds, but were able to travel easily to the far side of the island to see the famous sunset and then come back and relax with the family in our hot tub with peace and quiet. There’s a cute little town within walking distance that we were able to get groceries, food and treats at. We also walked to the archaeological site and Red beach, although that may be a hike for some. The check in process and communication were excellent. The property manager or Penny would respond in seconds to any questions we had. I would highly recommend this villa for any family who wants to spend quality time together without all the hustle and bustle of crowds.I hope we are able to go back to Illusion Villa again sometime!

Honestly we would book here again and recommend to others to do the same! We spoke to others at the hotel next door and knew we made the right choice.

We loved our stay! It was walkable to Kamari beach and the local bus stop. The view was beautiful from our balcony and we loved how well it was furnished inside...so modern, clean, and bright! Me and my friends thought it was such a fun place to stay! The only issue we ran into was the water pressure and its heating when both showers ran.

Our family of 5 adults enjoyed our stay at Nicolette’s home in Armeni Bay. The home is as described, but not quite as glamorous as the photo shoot displayed. Some would have preferred a stay in Oia with a more glamor and ease. The others loved the proximity to the water and the privacy the location provided. The description of the transportation to Oia (other than the 300 steps) was correct, just not recognized by us for what it truly was. Our lovely Captain, Themis was there to boat us to Amoudi Bay which has some nice restaurants but…. Getting to Oia was a pain. Since we did not have a scooter or car, we had to rely on a taxi or private driver. The transportation up and down (4 miles) cost at least $50 each time. Nicolette is happy to arrange any type of transportation but it is costly. I’m writing all of this because I want anyone who books this home to know what they are getting into. Now that I know, I WILL be coming back - just doing the transportation differently. I do recommend that you spend the money for her to arrange for your airport transfer. They will stop at the grocery store which is a necessity for basics if you don’t want to eat every meal out. They provide all the coffee you need for the time. The highlights of our trip other than the absolute beauty of the Island were: Themis - so accommodating and a wonderful person, Our two days of private boating with Miltos of My Blue Cruises, and the restaurant at Armeni Bay which was amazing.

The host was great and communicated great. The black sand beach is right across the street. Many stores and restaurants near by. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

I loved the location and the host Kelly was very accommodating. It was out of the main tourist area so it was nice and quite most days comparatively to Oia or Fira. The apartment was clean and had everything I needed for my stay. Great stay overall!

Anesti and his family were amazing hosts. The home was immaculately clean, the view was outstanding and we thoroughly enjoyed the dinner experience that they prepared for us on our balcony. Anesti toured us around the island prior to dropping us off at the ferry station. Cannot say enough great things. Thank you for a memorable vacation.
