Rock Villa is an incredibly beautiful accommodation. It is in Emporio which is a location for residents of Santorini and the food and produce is very cheap. The beach is very close and the seafood at Perissa Beach is amazing and also very cheap. Our time at the Rock Villa was unforgettable!

Excellent!
The property is amazing and very nice decorated with luxurious elements. The Villa is really comfortable and clean. We enjoyed some moments in the two yards. The one had a small pool and the other with the jacuzzi, a very nice outdoor dining area with view of the beautiful village of Emporio and very close the medieval castle! We will definitely visit you again in the near future. Thank you Despina and family 💙

Breathtakingly beautiful!
There was a little confusion with check in times, but then Vera took over and welcomed us royally. The villas are so fantastic, the village of Emporio is superb. Vera was available throughout our stay to book things for us, give us recommendations on where to eat, see the sunset, enjoy the beaches. She's amazing! We were sad to leave. We will be back and plan to stay longer next time!

Amazing Hidden Gem
Rock Villas is an excellent place to stay in Santorini . The Villa and it's grounds are beautiful and well kept. I highly recommend Rock Villas, if you are looking for a beautiful quiet retreat, it is an hidden gem. Vera provided a very comfortable stay. Vera was amazing. I feel like we gained a friend. She greeted us with a warm welcome and a variety of meats, cheeses, fresh fruit, juices and a carafe of wine, which was a much need treat after a long day of traveling. Vera was very sweet, attentive, and always available to provide info about places to go. Other Villa's and places could learn a lesson in hospitality from Rock Villas and Vera. Rock Villas is Very relaxing with all amenities available.

Charming Villa in Santorini
We were a group of 4 couples ans we had an amazing stay in the Rock Villa. Verra our host, was very nice and friendly. The villa is very charming and beauthifully decorated, we has a blast in the yard with the pool and nice views. The villa is well located, 20 -25 minutes from everywhere. The only negative was the house below, it had no windows and smelled of humudity. I recommand this villa to any type of group, adults or family...truly a special place! Thanks Verra for your geat hospitality :) From all of us in Montreal

Best Place at Santorini..!
We chose RockVillas complex for our honeymoon trip! It was totally fantastic! Very Romantic and very comfortable! Antigone is a very special person. She helped us to everything we need! The Villas are really Luxurious as the appear at photos and even much better! They are also very clean. The villa seem to be new! The beds were very comfortable. We spent great time at nights at the jacuzzi, watching the moon, the great Castle and drinking Champagne... Thank you for the host! Hope to see you again in the future... Greetings Jim Moresi.

About the host

Hosted by Loumakou Antigone

Host profile image
My name is Antigone and I am a day dreamer and a night thinker!
My main job was in the Strategic Communication field.

I love my job but I also love to travel all over Greece, as often as I can.
When I was younger, I loved and admired the amazing island of Santorini because of its unique rock history.

As I grew up I started to value things in another way. I was thinking “Small and simple things are really precious” and since then, I changed my view. I saw deeper and I started to appreciate everything that comes from the heart.

From my trips I realized that every place is a different place. Think about wild Mani, the awesome Delphi, the medieval castle of Monemvasia, the rock mountain of Kaimaktsalan etc.
I love all Greek villages, I love entire Greece.
I am so proud of our special history with all ups and downs, its unparalleled natural beauty combined with a bit of "wildness".
Whatever it is, it's very charming to me.
Somehow, I consider it my duty to spread the beauty of Greek hospitality. I am doing my best for the people traveling from all over the world and from Greece to visit those amazing destinations, so I hope you will enjoy your staying with us.

This is not a simple trip. It's a lifetime experience.
We will be glad to be the ones to host you on this sublime journey of life.

Follow your instincts,
Enjoy the “rock” life, 100%!
Hope to meet you personally.

Kind Regards,
Antigone
