About this property

Armeni Beach House - with private boat service!

Delve into the soul of the caldera by staying in this beautiful and cosy beach house, nestled in Armeni Bay, the hidden gem of Oia! Accessed either on foot through 300 steps, or by our private boat service. Perfect for those with adventurous mind and energy!

This cute and cosy beach house, is located in a truly unique spot of the caldera, at the foot of the cliff where stands Oia. It is located in the small, and picturesque Armeni bay, which only numbers a few houses, a restaurant and a pier where private yachts dock. The villa is located only few steps away from the sparkling blue waters. What makes Armeni Bay special, is that is not accessible by car. The two options for accessing Armeni bay are the following: 1)There is a path of 300 steps, linking this small port with the centre of the village of Oia. It is a 15-20 minutes hike through steps. You would need to be reasonably fit and like exercising for these steps. 2) We have our own private boat, and captain, for transporting our guests, upon check in, check out and during their stay. We offer this service (included in the price of the house) in order to be able to accommodate guests that are not willing to use the steps. From Armeni bay, the boat will drop you off in Ammoudi bay. Ammoudi bay, is also a small bay with seafood restaurants. However it is also accessible by car, as there is a proper road. From Ammoudi bay you can either use your car/scooter/atv or take a taxi in order to explore the rest of the island. It is only a 2 minutes drive from the village of Oia. In the village of Oia, you will find a great variety of shops and restaurants.

The beach house consists of three levels. The ground floor features a small dining area and kitchenette. A bedroom with a double bed and an en suite bathroom are located at the back. The second level is an open loft with two single beds (can also be prepared as a large double bed). The third floor is a bedroom with an en suite bathroom. The bedroom offers a double bed, a single bed and one small single bed that can sleep a child. The private terrace right at the seafront is perfect for lying back with a good book; sunbathing and enjoying home cooked meals. The beach in front the house is a volcanic pebble beach, perfect for swimming and kayak excursions to the nearby small bays. We provide the kayaks! In addition, you could always, walk up to the village of Oia, and enjoy the local sites there, or rent a car and explore the rest of Santorini. This beach house and its location, are both very special, and are ideal for sea lovers and people who are looking to escape the pressures of fast paced living.

The house offers housekeeping service every other day.

Check out our other two properties in Armeni Bay: Armeni Seaside Villa and Armeni Beach Nest

PLEASE NOTE that in rare cases of bad weather conditions we cannot use the boat. During the touristic season that the house operates (mid April - mid October), bad weather conditions are rare, but can still occur. We always follow the instructions of the local port authorities and our guests' safety is our top priority. In such cases our guests can either use the steps to go to the village, or we offer alternative accommodation in the main town of Oia.

Un séjour de rêve
Notre séjour s'est déroulé dans des conditions optimales: Nicoletta est un hôte attentionné, soucieuse de répondre en permanence et de façon très réactive à tous nos besoins. Son équipe est à son image: Thémis, le pilote, est adorable et Alexandre qui l'a suppléé très sympathique. La maison est conforme aux photos et descriptions et très bien équipée. Et malgré notre court séjour, la femme de ménage est intervenue plusieurs fois. Le cadre est magnifique et pouvoir profiter de la mer quasiment à nos pieds pour se baigner est le nec plus ultra! Bref, une location où vous pouvez aller les yeux fermés, vous ne serez pas déçus.

5 Stars! Lovely Armeni Bay
This property is lovely; nestled in the tiny Armeni Bay it’s quiet and beachy and a nice break from the Oia crowds. We loved falling asleep to the sounds of the ocean each night. Hosts are SO welcoming and helpful; great communication. It’s a little remote - you have to walk up a LOT of stairs to get to the Oia village and it’s not directly accessible by car - but for us, that was part of the fun and they offer a personal boat service to take you to nearby Ammoudi Bay. The boat driver Themis was wonderful and so easy to coordinate rides with. I definitely recommend this charming and peaceful house!

Best host ever
Nicoletta was amazing. Helped us find places to go and ways to get there. If Nicoletta recommends it, so it. Captain Alex is amazing. Always ready at the drop of a hat to bring us to port. They even went above when the car we ordered didn’t show up, Alex stayed with us until he was sure we were taken care of. Amazing

Exceeded all expectations
In short, the house was super cute and had everything including a washer, quality bath products, comfortable beds and linens; two eating areas (indoor/outdoor) and AMAZING VIEW. This property provided everything including kayaks and a private water taxi. Captain Alex is awesome! Host and company were very responsive and anticipated all of our needs. The only negative... too many yachts in the bay blocking our view :)

Wonderful little house on Santorini
Location very pretty, boat service excellent, house very nice and clean, good service, unfortunately there is an old broken house directly on the right hand side of the property and the vulcanic beach on the right hand site has electric wires. On the left hand site there is a very nice tavern. The island is beautiful. We really enjoyed!

Armeni House the special place
Abbiamo passato 5 giorni in questo posto speciale che si trova sotto Oia in un piccolo porticciolo con splendida taverna greca. La casa è carina e si trova direttame sul mare . È davvero un modo diverso ed unico per vivere Santorini! Con un motoscafo privato che vi porterà ogni volta che se ne avrà bisogno dal pittoresco porto di Ammoudi a casa !

Stunning location
We absolutely LOVED our stay at the Armeni Beach House! Christina and Alexandra greeted us warmly & Nicoletta was so responsive to all of my questions. They are the best hosts! Having the boat was fabulous and Captain Gregory was so accommodating! The restaurant next door was great- we ate there almost every night! The location was everything we hoped for and more!

One of the best parts of our trip!
We absolutely loved our stay at the Armeni beach house. There were 6 of us, and we all agreed one of the best parts about our trip was the location of the house. It was amazing to wake up and walk 10 feet out of our house into the water! We also loved that we could just stay at the house for the day and still enjoy our time relaxing In the loungers. We also enjoyed the restaurant that was right next door. We would go over there for coffees, and lunch. The house was great. Everything we needed. We also loved that we had the option to get a boat ride into ammoudi bay, if we didn’t want to do the stairs.

Awesome House In Oia Santorini
A group of us spent a week at Santorini in the Armeni Beach House. Alexandra, Christina, and Capt. Alex provided us a superior service that we could not asked for more! The house location is secluded from the busy and tourist area of Oia Village which is nice. We were able to go into the water take a swim or kayaking anytime we wanted in front of the house. The food at Armeni restaurant next door was superb and price was reasonable. We practically ate there every night, thanks to Niklaus and team for great service! We definitely would go back to this house again in a heartbeat! You can either walk up the steps to Oia Village from the house or Ammoudi Bay. Watch out for the donkeys!

About the host

Hosted by Mrs. Nicoletta Nomicou

Host profile image
I am from Athens, however I have very close ties with two beautiful Greek islands Santorini and Patmos.

As my father’s family is from Santorini I spent all my summers there. Since I am a licensed tour guide, in 2004 I decided to move to Santorini in order to work there. This was a great chance to start renovating my family’s properties in order to be able to share them with people from all over the world.

In addition, many years ago, my mother visited the island of Patmos, fell in love with it and decided to buy two beautiful pieces of land, including very old farmhouses in ruinous condition, that she slowly renovated. In this way, our family and numerous friends enjoyed many unforgettable Patmos Easters and summers. Nowadays, I am responsible for the good condition of the houses that I rent out and share the beauty and special ambiance of this island with our guests.

I am very lucky since my twin daughters, Alexandra and Christina, having completed their studies abroad in hospitality management and tourism, returned to their roots in order to continue and develop what I started. Genuine hospitality, love and respect for the island, as well as the embracement of the local culture define our core values. Nowadays we all share our time between Santorini, Patmos and Athens, and have the honor and pleasure to share our family’s story and our love for these islands, with visitors from all over the world.
