Villa Santorini, Wine Dark Sea Villas

Villa Santorini sits atop a dramatic cliff that makes it seem like the dividing line between the sea and sky. Shining bright white for all to see, it stands against the bold blue seas in glorious contrast that immerses our guests in the true Greek Island experience. Villa Santorini was designed to reflect the architecture found in the Caldera, where classic white buildings and blue-domed roofs reflect the bright Greek sun. Here we pay homage to the great architecture that is renowned throughout the world.

Though Villa Santorini is situated in the town of Lygaria, it is only 10 minutes away from the beautiful beach town of Agia Pelagia, where guests can find many incredible tavernas, shops, and nightspots. It is a beautiful cove with crystal blue waters, soft white sand, small cliffs to dive from, and a relaxed atmosphere that is unique to this small town. Villa Santorini is only 30 minutes from the Heraklion airport, and 15 minutes from Downtown Heraklion.

● Exterior 5,000 sq. m: Swimming Pool, Patio, Barbeque Area, Gardens, Outdoor Bathrooms, Outdoor Shower

When guests enter the doors of Villa Santorini, the first thing they see is a unique, hand-crafted stairway encased in glass and plasterwork, through which guests can quickly preview the rest of this elegant space. To the left, a spacious living room decorated and furnished with tasteful furniture and art, all specially curated to evoke a blend of luxury and comfort. Across from the living room is the spacious and specially equipped kitchen, designed with both chefs and home cooks in mind, and the dining area that overlooks the sea. From this floor, guests can access the courtyard, pool, and gardens through a large sliding glass door.

Ascending the staircase, decorated with art that evokes the classical works of old and allowing guests an interior view of the dome, sits Villa Santorini’s first floor. There are three gorgeous bedrooms, two of which have balconies that overlook the Aegean Sea, so guests may take advantage of the gorgeous views. All bedrooms are elegantly furnished with taste and comfort in mind. The master bedroom is an en-suite, complete with a walk-in shower and a double sink vanity. The two double bedrooms share a bathroom with independent access that is equally lovely.

Should guests descend to the lower level, they will find two comfortably furnished Twin en-suite bedrooms, as well as a double bedroom that is equally comfortable. All rooms on this floor are spacious, and each has its own television. The Lower Level also houses a kitchenette and laundry area.

Stepping outside the sliding glass door, our guests will find themselves in our beautiful white courtyard. Here you will find our beautiful pool, the gardens, a barbeque, and several sitting and sunbathing areas. Our pool was specially designed to reflect the silhouette of the villa, and at night, lights within the pool reflect the beauty of the Cretan night sky. Our gardens were designed to evoke the feeling of finding an oasis in the desert, with fragrant and colorful flowers and trees lining the paths. Villa Santorini is also home to Wine Dark Sea’s distinctive archway, which perfectly frames the ocean behind it. Many couples have used Villa Santorini for their wedding specifically for this beautiful archway.

The villa is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 4.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 6 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a coffee maker. Limited housekeeping is available.

The Best that Greece has to offer

We had an amazing time staying at the Wine Dark Sea Villa Santorini on the island of Crete. This is a gorgeous luxury villa with all the amenities you could want. As great as the pictures are, the villa is even more beautiful in person. We traveled throughout Greece stopping in Athens, Santorini, Paros, and then Crete. Staying in this villa was the highlight of our trip! The villa easily accommodated the 12 people in our party. The back deck and pool area is huge, and has an amazing view. The inside of the villa was very luxurious but also very comfortable. The boys loved having a brand new PS4 to play some video games. The washer and drier were a welcome amenity as we had been traveling for almost 2 weeks. The villa is on the side of the hill/mountain which gives the great view. The villa is a short (20 minute) drive from the Iraklion port. There aren't any stores or restaurants in walking distance. So, The managers helped us rent cars which were delivered to the villa. We were able to drive to the beaches in Agia Pelagia, which is a fairly easy 10 minute drive from the villa. In the evenings we drove down to an area west of Iraklion where there were many great Tavernas to have dinner. This was again an easy 15 minute drive. The managers of the estate were extremely accommodating and made sure that we had a great experience. They even arranged for us to have a wonderful dinner at an authentic taverna in a small village on the mountain not far from the villa. Again, this was one of our most enjoyable and memorable parts of our vacation. I am Greek-American...my parents were both born in Greece but my siblings and I were born in America. I was traveling with my family, my father, and my sister's family. We have been to Greece many times and seen many parts of this beautiful country. We guarantee that you will love this villa, and you won't find a better way to experience Greece than staying here at the Wine dark Villa Santorini!
