About this property

Cactus hideaway with sea views

This property is one of three villas set in an acre of private land covered with lots of trees, flowers and cactus. This villa has two bedrooms and can accommodate up to 6 people. Quiet and spacious, laid out on three levels, "Cactus hideaway" is the ideal accommodation for one or two couples or a family of four or six. The upper level has the master bedroom with an en-suit bathroom with shower as well as a balcony to watch your most memorable sunrises. The ground level consists of a living room with a sofa/bed for two, a fully equipped kitchen, a dining table for 6 people, and a bathroom with shower. The cellar has two comfortable single beds and a set of drawers. The villa looks out to an airy and shady patio covered by a bougainvillea and a vine tree. In September you can taste the grapes that hang over your head. Table and chairs and armchairs are provided for relaxing and enjoying a cold drink or having lunch or dinner outdoors. Sea views right in front of you decorated by a vast collection of cactus. Barbecue on request. Tastefully decorated, the house will make you feel at home. Our purpose is to make guests feel that they move to their own holiday house in Santorini. The villa has its own washing machine and two air-conditioning units.
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, lemon, vineyard, olive trees, and a huge collection of cactuses. When the time is right, you can taste figs, apricots, and grapes right off the trees. Just outside our walls there are three tiny white washed chapels which our visitors are free to visit. Free parking on our premises.
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.

Quiet little Villa away from the crowds

This house was in a perfect part of the island for us, as it allowed us to get away from the summer crowds but was near to some lovely beaches and also not too far from Oia and Fira. Nikos was very helpful and friendly, giving us advice on places to visit, some of the island’s best restaurants and tips on how to avoid the busiest areas. The Villa was clean and has a lovely, shaded pretty garden with a view of the sea and some interesting cactus plants!

Cactus Hideway

Loved this villa! So much character, the patio is adorable, the landscape around it holds true to the property’s name. The host lives on site. He greeted us when we arrived. He showed us around the property and gave us info on the area. We could see the sea from our patio. Watched the sun come up and the full moon each evening!

The perfect Greece experience!

Cannot recommend the Cactus Hideaway enough. The property was brilliant, exactly as described and so cute. Above all else, Niko and Anna were amazing hosts. We were sat down at the beginning of our stay and given a map with a run down of the whole island, including recommendations. They arranged car hire for us and everything, couldn’t have been more helpful. So grateful! It was an easy stay and a great Greek experience. Thank you!!

Une belle parenthèse en avril

Loin de la foule de l'été, notre séjour à été une belle parenthèse. Le logement plein de charme est très bien situé pour nous rendre sur les différents sites de l'île. Nikos et Anna sont des hôtes disponibles et nous ont prodigué de bons plans restau, plages et visites qui ont fait mouche à chaque fois. Je vous recommande

About the host

Hosted by Anna Gani, Nikos Nikolopoulos

Host profile image
I was born in Pireas the port of Athens. I have made Santorini my home for the last 30 years. A few years back, I bought four houses by the sea. I rent the three and live in the fourth one. In the winter when there is hardly any tourist movement in Santorini I travel a lot. Always I choose to stay in a private house. I have a long experience as a tourist so I think I can be a real good host. Living in Santorini for 30 years I have come to know every small corner of the island. Information that I love to share with my guests.

Why they chose this property

Santorini tends to be quite crowded in the summer months. Hotel rooms are small with tiny outdoor space. In my villa you will have peacefulness and lots of space. I have put extra care in furnishing and decorating my houses so that my guests feel they stay in their own summer house in Santorini.

What makes this property unique

If you are a cactus enthusiast you will love my garden. Specially when they bloom, they are magnificent. Apart from the cactus, you can taste grapes and figs right off the trees.
