About this property

Villa Sophia has a fabulous location in the peaceful village of Megalochori on a quiet, winding street, away from the hustle and bustle of nearby Fira. The villa is just a short stroll away from the picturesque central village square with its pretty churches and bell towers. A handy selection of amenities such as restaurants, shops and a great local market, where guests can stock up on snacks and wine, can all be found in Megalochori. A wider range of amenities and exciting nightlife can be found in Fira, which is just a 15-minute car journey away.

The villa can sleep up to four guests across two beautiful bedrooms. The accommodation is set out over one level; large wooden entrance gates conceal a private courtyard oasis which boasts a private swimming pool. Double doors lead from the courtyard into the living and dining room, the two double bedrooms lead off from either side of this room. The villa also boasts a fully equipped kitchen which comes complete with all necessary amenities as well as a family bathroom.

Outside, the courtyard is the perfect place to spend a lazy day relaxing by the pool with a good book. For those who enjoy al fresco dining, there are dining facilities and a handy barbecue, perfect for cooking up a storm with treats purchased at the local market!

Megalochori is one of the most picturesque villages on the beautiful island of Santorini, thanks partly to how it has managed to maintain its traditional architecture. Opinions differ on the origin of the name - some say that it came from the agricultural fields that the villagers kept, and others argue that the name reflects the personality of the place. Even though most of the houses have been renovated, Megalochori has managed to retain many of its traditional values. Many picturesque local churches and many vineyards produce fine local wines. The nearby beaches are superb, and whatever you do, try some of the traditionally produced sun-dried tomatoes.

The surrounding area has an abundance of restaurants, tavernas, cafes, bakers, mini-markets, tourist shops and wineries - they are all easy to find, and you'll find the locals incredibly friendly and welcoming. Despite boasting all necessary amenities, Megalochori leaves visitors feeling like a million miles away from any hustle & bustle; however, the busy towns of Fira and Oia are still only a short car journey away!

    We loved staying in Villa Sofia. The courtyard and pool offered us our own private slice of paradise. The house has an authentic old-world charm. It was fully equipped with everything we needed. Takis made the whole booking process very easy and was responsive when we had questions. Villa Sofia is a 2-minute walk from a variety of restaurants in the town square and a family-owned winery that is worth a visit. We enjoyed exploring the quiet, winding streets of Megalchori and preferred the atmosphere of a traditional village to the faster pace and hoards of tourists in Fira and Oia.

    Takis was great to work with while planning our girls trip. Always quick to respond to my questions. Konstantinos was an excellent host - welcoming, friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable of the area, with wonderful suggestions. The Villa was beautiful, private and well-located with very comfortable beds. I highly recommend staying at this gem in Megalochori!

    We loved everything about Villa Sophia! The house was sparkling clean and extra spacious, with an amazing outdoor space and a stunning pool! The location was ideal. We had overall an amazing experience and would definitely go back next summer. Thank you to the super friendly host for this once in a lifetime experience!!!
