Santorini, GreeceVilla Ramos

Whether for small events, family holidays or friends traveling together, you will love the privacy and comfort of Villa Ramos. A peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of neighboring Oia, this is the place to kick up your feet and breathe in the relaxing tranquility of the Aegean Sea.

The two-story house is tastefully designed and furnished, combining casual luxury with traditional Cycladic island style in three suites. All rooms have breathtaking sea views and airy, open interiors finished in soothing earth tones. Soft curving plaster walls and archways lend traditional poetic Cycladic charm throughout. Beautiful family heirloom antiques and artifacts are charming reminders of the old days of Santorini’s illustrious wine-making past.

Villa Ramos can accommodate up to eight guests seeking a unique, private summer retreat in one of Santorini’s most beautiful settings.

The ground floor contains two suites, each one with an independent entrance, its own cozy kitchen, dining area and modern en-suite bathroom with a large built-in shower. Both kitchens are fully equipped with everything you need to feel right at home, including a mini-refrigerator, cooktop, small convenience appliances, cookware, china and cutlery. One suite can accommodate three guests, with one double bed and one sofa bed. The second suite can accommodate two guests in a double bed. Both ground floor suites have plenty of privacy, direct access to the large outdoor terraces and expansive sea views.

The cozy and private suite upstairs enjoys the most spectacular sea views. It also has an independent entrance, kitchenette and dining area with a mini-refrigerator, cooktop, small convenience appliances, cookware, china and cutlery. This suite can accommodate three guests, with one double bed and one sofa bed. Even the large built-in shower has a view, with a large window facing the sea. This suite has direct access to a large private upstairs terrace lounge. From sunrise to sunset, you will feel as if the view of the endless azure Aegean Sea and sky exist just for you. Also on the second level, a separate small terrace with built in seating is an intimate space for a cozy conversation with a glorious seascape background.

At Villa Ramos, the outdoor spaces are as luxurious and plentiful as the indoor spaces. The beautiful handmade courtyard walls of volcanic stone ensure complete privacy for lounging in the hammocks hung from large wooden beams. Enjoy a morning coffee or spectacular sunset colors in the outdoor lounge area perched at the edge of the sea or bask in the glorious Greek sun in the chaise lounges outside each bedroom door. Savor a Greek style lunch or dine alfresco under the stars on the generous dining terrace with pergola and built in seating, next to the handmade wood burning oven and barbecue.

Follow a private winding stone footpath to the beach just below the house for a swim anytime of the day or night.

While the mad rush of tourists retreat from Oia’s “famous sunset” en masse, you will be privileged to linger over every last color of the day from your own private hideaway.
