Back to Villa Santorini......
Such A Romantic, Private, Secluded, Mini-Resort-Villa Santorini (GREAT REVIEWS ! ) with 8 ft Privacy White Stucco Walls & Gates -surrounded with soaring Palm Trees and Blooming Tropical Plants..and yet a short 15 minute walk to the pristine beach of Delray and its lively restaurants, boutiques and music, this luxurious 2 bedroom 2 1/2 bath villa offers a very high quality beach vacation experience. The villa has Italian terrazzo floors throughout and boasts a private resort style pool and deluxe white and aqua loungers. The meticulously maintained, professionally landscaped, tropical garden is completely enclosed by an 8-foot solid white privacy fence creating a feeling of total luxury.
In the front of the villa, Adirondack chairs greet you on the front porch, perfect for morning coffee and reading The New York Times or the Palm Beach Post or watching the moon rise over the trees. Custom lighting showcases the clean white lines of the home, which was renovated in 2012 by a real estate professional who lived in it himself. All of the windows are hurricane rated, impact glass for total soundproofing as well as safety. The only exception to the cushion of quiet is the pitter-patter of raindrops on the cathedral ceiling, making any rainstorm a treat to be savored from the king size bed in the master bedroom or the comfy white, slipcovered sofa in the living room, snuggled in with a good book.

In the living room lounge on the white slipcovered sofa and read a book or relax with flatscreen/Smart TV with premium cable, BluRay and Samsung surround sound to watch Netflix movies or other Internet and cable entertainment.

The master bedroom offers a king size pillow top luxury mattress. The coastal decor will remind you that you are waking up at the beach. The master bedroom closet is fully organized and built out for easy access to bed linens and clothes...and speaking of bed linens...satin quilt and high quality sheets make you feel like you are in a five star resort. The second bedroom has a queen size pillow top mattress and romantic canopy bed with a view of the pool and two matching floor to ceiling closets for bathing suits, shorts and sun dresses for daytime shopping and nighttime dining.

The bathroom suite is perfectly designed for privacy and functionality with a vanity and toilet adjoining each bedroom, leading into a double-sized shower with custom tile and pebble floor. Bed linens, bath and beach towels are provided to guests.

Enjoy cocktails for two poolside on the teak table set or entertain friends on the long elegant white table for backyard steaks on the grill among the twinkling lights in the trees and custom outdoor lighting.

Inside, the fully equipped kitchen opens to a bonus family room and to the indoor living room. The kitchen is South Beach inspired with modern glass cabinets and black granite, accented by a modern, contemporary chandelier.

There is off street parking for two cars, but why drive when you can use the Delray Downtowner? This free shuttle service to and from the vivacious Delray downtown area and the nearby beaches will pick you up at your doorstep, just call for a pick up. This lavish home is centrally located with bike rentals a few blocks away, grocery shopping, pharmacy and liquor store are all within walking distance.

Additional amenities include five burner gas grill for outdoor entertaining, beach umbrella and plush lounge chairs for beach use, plus deluxe beach cabana chair rental complimentary to our guests. Our villa is pet friendly unlike most luxury properties, with some restrictions and appropriate deposit.

Rent both of our villas for your family reunion or special trip with friends. They are adjoining villas, each with its own private pool, but they can be opened so that your family or friends can flow from one to the other.

Why choose Delray Beach?

When you stay in the “Village by the Sea,” you will instantly feel the warm and friendly atmosphere that makes downtown Delray Beach such a joy to visit.

Delray Beach’s art district boasts a vibrant, bustling art scene in its trendy downtown with almost 30 galleries, an artists alley and two live theaters in walking distance from the villa. Come “downtown” and do one of the monthly artwalks, meet the shopkeepers and the entire community known as a Sociable City and recently awarded 'Best of the Road - Most Fun Small Town in America' by Rand McNally & USA Today.

There is certainly no shortage of things to do in Delray. Whether you're into extreme sports or wine tasting, there literally is something for everyone. With over 110 restaurants, 52 spas & salons and 50 retail shops and boutiques, you have plenty of choices for the days you don’t want to bask on the beach or by your own pool. The Delray Saturday farmers market, regular street festivals and clean, elegant public beach make this walking village unlike most places in Florida or other beach towns in the U.S. Come visit and see why a Delray Beach vacation is the way the beach was meant to be.

Atlantic Avenue recently listed as one to America's top shopping streets by USA Today.

Grateful in Milford

I cannot say enough about the owners of this home and how great our stay was. It was a last minute booking for us as we had just lost my mom and wanted to be near Dad during this difficult time. The home is lovely, private, serene, and so very convenient! The villa is completely furnished with everything you need to make your stay memorable and wonderful. The location is walking distance to Atlantic Ave and the beach. I would highly recommend this wonderful home to anyone looking for the perfect spot in East Delray.

The Best Hosts

My husband and I highly recommend any property that Garland and Joy own! Our original stay at Villa Santorini was incredible! The Villa is spacious, private, and immaculate! After a month of being spoiled, we were sad to leave. Garland and Joy truly were interested in making sure they were able to do everything possible to make us comfortable including welcoming our pets. We were even here during a hurricane threat and Garland made sure his tenants were safe and aware of what was going on. I have used VRBO before and always been satisfied, but this stay is heads and shoulders above all the others!! Thank you Garland and Joy!

Very responsive and kind owner, lovely pool - great for kids

The owner was incredibly kind from the start. He met us when we arrived and gave us a tour of the house. It fit our family of four comfortably. It was clean and I was able to cook meals in the modern kitchen. The pool was spectacular. Warm, salt water pool with lovely lights at night. We and our pre-teen children loved it and spent 3 hours a day in the 87 degree water. The house is 1/3 mile from the Intracoastal and less than a mile from the beach. We felt safe walking in the neighborhood both during the day and at night. We highly recommend this property and would definitely return if we had the time. Thank you!

Superhouse & Superhost!!

Sandra & I were teaching our baby to swim when we started to look for a house in Delray Beach. The heated salt water pool at Garland & Joy’s Santorini property was an obvious attraction to us as renters. Santorini’s proximity to downtown Delray Beach (& family 15 minutes away) also garnered our interest. One week before our arrival, we drove by Santorini to look at the house. It turned out that Santorini’s outdoor furnishings, & continuously flowering landscaped grounds were also attractive. It was not just a practical & comfortable space to enjoy outside, every day, but it was also beautiful in a way which created peace, relaxation, & was a happy space for swimming, being alone, & social gatherings. We therefore rented for 1 month w/ an extension Santorini, the house, like most of the houses on the street is unremarkably setback off of a typically low traffic, residential road in a suburban (Palm Trails) neighborhood w/ sidewalks. The house itself is walking distance from the Intercoastal waterway & popular Atlantic Avenue, w/ Walgreens, Publix, & a locally owned Farmer’s Grocery Market nearby. The house is a “split ranch” architecture & interior, w/ a 2-bedroom Jack & Jill layout (rooms connected by individual toilets & sinks but sharing a shower in between), vaulted ceilings, overhead fans in both bedrooms, & an updated kitchen w/ enormous freezer & refrigerator space. All furnishings were lavishly comfortable, aesthetically pleasing, & ample enough for a family of 4 plus several guests. The non-kitschy elegant beach-themed artwork adorning each of the rooms was also a bonus. We spent most of our time in the south-facing Master bedroom which had ample shaded windows which allowed for lots of light. It was very comfortable, quiet, & airy. Occasionally, we used the 2nd bedroom for nursing our 4-month-old son throughout the night. In the day, the 2nd bedroom floor provided for a good play space for our son to practice tummy time, & for guests to have a bathroom & changing room for the pool. The house had excellent wi-fi & TV hookups. Our Superhost, Garland made our stay worthwhile. He is a magnanimous man. He was not only responsive & quick to answer any questions that we had, provide us w/ help, or repair any problems; he was a stakeholder in our happiness, showing kindness, respect, thoughtfulness. generosity, & enthusiasm. He’s also fun to talk to! Sandra & I will definitely wish to rent Santorini again w/ Garland next time we return to Delray Beach.

A slice of paradise in Delray Beach

First and foremost the owners are great. They met us at the house when we arrived and took the time to explain everything about the house/pool and then discussed the area. Over the next two weeks, they checked in multiple times to see how we were doing and if we needed anything. A first class experience. The house is great and the location is excellent. It is near Atlantic Avenue so walking is certainly doable but easy escape route to George Bush Blvd to get to A1A to avoid driving on Atlantic Avenue. It is close to various stores including Publix and it is easy to run up and down Rt.1 to other areas.

2nd Stay

Once again Villa Santorini did not disappoint. The house and yard were both beautiful and the location was perfect for our needs. The house was spotless and very comfortable. The yard was very private and the pool was warm and beautiful. This was our second time renting from Joy and Garland and we look forward to spending another week there in the spring. I would highly recommend this property!!!

Perfect Delray Experience

We just returned home from a wonderful 2 week stay at Joy and Garland's lovely home in Downtown Delray. This house has it all: great location, clean, comfortable and charming, but the best part of the vacation has to be the owners. I, along with the owners, organized a surprise birthday party at the house, which turned out to be a huge success. They were more than helpful. We had about 30 people who were comfortable in the beautiful backyard. The pool is the centerpiece of the outdoor space in Villa Santorini. Owners were very accommodating. We were 2 couples, the property worked well for us. We would definitely return. Delray is a great destination, lots to do.

Winter Respite

We are leaving this lovely home tomorrow after 10 wonderful days in Delray! This is a beautiful home perfectly decorated and the pool and fenced in yard provide privacy and relaxation. We walked everywhere to the beach, restaurants, and shopping. The location is amazingly convenient. The home was spacious enought to have our children stay for a few days too. What a great break from this bitter winter in New England! Thank you Joy and Garland for sharing your lovely home with our family. Hope to see you again next year.

I would highly recommend this home, it is beautifully decorated, exceptionally clean, the kitchen is fully appointed, appliances are new and easy to use and fully stocked. The pool area is a dream we were able to entertain our friends and BBQ for them. Don't hesitate to stay here, the beach and lively Atlantic Avenue are so close and much fun. Enjoy and thank you Joy & Garland for a most pleasurable stay.

About the host

Hosted by Garland Williams

Host profile image
We have been vacationing in Delray Beach for Six years and found it to be so different from all the other Florida towns. We wanted to invest more of our personal time here so purchasing the villas seemed like the perfect vantage point from which to get to know the community even better. We have our own businesses and that makes it easier to work from Delray or Washington, D.C. as needed. Each villa is equipped with high-speed Internet access to enable our guests to do the same. We have owned beach homes since 2005 and our philosophy is to furnish them the way we would furnish our personal home and to have guests enjoy them the way that we do. We have found that guests appreciate the feeling of being at a cosmopolitan beach home, relaxed and yet elegant with attention to detail. We vacation in Martha's Vineyard every year, so when we chose this home we created an environment where people who are used to those vacations could relax and enjoy the same elegant, relaxed style in sunny Florida.

Why they chose this property

This intimate and private Villa is unique in that it offers luxurious living in a relaxed yet elegant beach home located in the award-winning Delray Beach, 'Village by the Sea.' There are numerous condos and homes around to choose from for your vacation, but Villa Athena and her sister villa offer a high quality, luxurious, private beach vacation experience within walking distance to the Avenue. When you want a private yet intimate vacation with your family or loved ones, try out our Villa in the Village by the Sea.

What makes this property unique

How many ways can you say Private-Private-Private? In a crowded, fast-paced world, we luxuriate in the simple things like privacy, quiet, beautiful surroundings, raindrops on the roof, lush tropical greenery and colorful bougainvillea. We like a touch of South Beach here and there with the comfort and class of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket. We want to take a midnight swim under the moonlight if the spirit moves us. We want a place large enough to have guests but not so large that the feeling of intimacy is lost. We want the advantages of a resort but we want exclusivity. Villa Athena and its sister captured my passion and engaged my mind, inspiring me to create a memorable vacation for discriminating travelers. I hope you agree.
