About this house rental

The whole settlement stands there, since the mid 19th century. Although it is a cave house, it is considerably spacious. The high ceilings and the old wooden floor, make it differ from the common cave houses. In addition to that, the minimalistic, Cycladic fireplace, at the upper room, creates a cosy and warm atmosphere, making Aerie House, the best option for your winter vacation in Santorini.
The main house is consisted of a living room with to couches, made by organic bed matresses, a fully equipped kitchen, a bed room with a king-size bed, a bathroom and a dressing room. The beautiful cement steps into the bedroom, lead to a small but atmospheric and secluded cave loft, where visitors can relax.

The second space of the house, which one can approach through the yard's steps and small teraces, has it's own entrance, offering a discrete privacy into the whole settlement. It is consisted of the main room with a king-size bed, a beautiful bathroom and a fireplace. Through it's windows, visitors can enjoy the majestic view of the Caldera, even while resting in bed.

After more than 20 years of spending the family vacation there, this house is full of joyful memories, spending time with family and friends.

Last year, the whole house was carefully restored and renovated by an architect of the island, respecting the local, minimal architecture, giving emphasis to the simplicity of the building's forms and aesthetics.

Aerie house, as it is now, is a combination of minimalistic architectural forms and functionality, with a hint of discrete maximalism through several objects, furnitures and art paintings from my family collection. All the above, create a uniquely beautiful symphony, which makes Aerie Villa special.
Aerie house's philosophy is to offer quality of vacation. Great importance is given in your sleep and resting hours. With our organic matresses and top-matresses, and through the availability of two different kinds of pillows to adapt your body's needs, bed time will provide you with the necessary energy and joy to explore the island during day time.
Also, it is important that your are provided all the amenities possible, in order to feel at home.
Amenities include: bathrobes, slippers, shampoos, conditioner, shower gel, body cream, hand soap, hand cream, toothbrush, vanity kit, as well as all sorts of kitchen and home electronic devices : free wifi, A/C, cable TV , 2 cd players, 2 DVD players, microwave, a gas kitchen, a big fridge and a smaller one in the separate room, 1 espresso machine, 1 espresso/cappuccino machine, unlimited espresso capsules, filter coffee machine, a kettle, orange squeezer, toaster, hair-dryer in both spaces, cell-phone to reach us any time you need it, washing machine as well as a dryer machine, iron, and a safe, to protect your personal belongings.

Αlso: every day cleaning service and baggage carry from/to the parking loat of Kinotita in Oia. At the house, you'll find bottles of mineral water, local wine, coffee, tea, sugar, fruits and homemade cookies when arriving in the house (included in the price).
As mentioned before, when entering the house, you'll be provided with a cell-phone, in order to be able to reach us any time you need it, while you'll be given off course all the necessary information about the house and the island.

Our goal is to make the island meet your personal needs, not the opposite, so we're willing to help you organize all the activities that you would desire to try. The only thing you have to do is to ask us and then relax and enjoy!

Unfortunately, my studies force me to spend most of my time in Athens, so, in case I won't be able to meet you in person, I am always available to talk to you the to the phone.

Aerie House is situated in the traditional settlement of Oia. It is only 1 minute far from the main commercial pedestrian road of Oia. Our guests, can easily access, by foot, all sorts of restaurants and shops, as well as wonder around the pittoresque paths through the houses of the settlement that are hanging from the cliffs of the Caldera. It is also approximately 4 minutes far from the famous Venetian Castle in the Northern part of the village, where people from all over the world, come to see the sunset. The location of the house, combines the experience of living inside the traditional settlement onto the cliff of the Caldera without having to climb lots of steps. Through Aerie house's view, our guests can experience all the changes in the scenery throughout the day, the different colors of the sky and it's reflections on the cliffs, as well as the Volcano and the island of Thirasia, whilst being part of the only colorful traditional settlement in the Cyclades islands, surrounded by the breathtaking view of the Caldera.

Aerie house is really easy to access, since it is positioned 2 minutes away from the Kinotita Arcade which is one of the main entrances to the village. The bus station is reached through a 5-7 minutes walk through the village. We can book you a cab any time you need it, or we could arrange you a car rental. If you want to, we organize your transfer from the airport/port to our place as well as your transfer at the day of your departure.

I grew up with pets, so they are more than welcome in Aerie House. However, during night time, I would kindly ask you to respect the neighbors need to rest (after 12:00 a.m)!

Don't forget to use water wisely! Santorini, run's out of water as the years pass!

This was the most wonderful stay for our family of six. We have four teenagers, so the upstairs/downstairs set up was perfect. The location is amazing with the incredible views, right in the heart of Oia. The property managers met us, helped us with our bags, transports, and was always available to answer questions. The house is right next to a busy restaurant because it's right off of the main pedestrian walkway but you come to Oia to see and be seen so that didn't bother us at all, the nature of the town is very tight quarters which is part of the experience. The property manager rightly directed us to a cruise which was the best part of our stay in Santorini, highly recommend. This is a fantastic house, clean, well-appointed, and the best views of iconic Santorini. The only hiccup was that I had a hart time getting in touch with the owner before our arrival because I did not know to contact her through WhatsApp. Once I did use WhatsApp, she was very responsive and was able to help us with the details. We loved every minute of our stay here.

So the experience was okay. Location was exactly as promised. Amenities were not as promised. When we booked it stated that they had laundry. Coming from the states this was a huge factor for us. We packed based on the fact we would be able to do our own laundry. When we arrived and asked where the laundry was it was at that time they stated they had removed the laundry due to previous renters damaging the unit. So we had to insist they do our laundry. For us this was a huge inconvenience because we had to wait for them to bring it and then we had to wait for it to dry. I will say for the most part it was an amazing view and our property manager did try to comply with our requests. I would say double check before booking and make sure you get property manager name prior to showing up like at least a month before.

Our stay at Aerie House was wonderful! The pictures accurately display the beauty and charm of this adorable property. It is located in the heart of the scenic Caldera homes with abundant shopping/restaurants and spectacular views! The home was perfectly cleaned, comfortable beds and great "up to date" plumbing features. The only odd thing was that the kitchen while being well stocked is only stocked for 3 people. 3 large plates/bowls/ etc... The property manager took excellent care of us! He met us at the appointed spot and took our luggage to the home so we didn't have to deal with it at all. If we needed anything at all he was very attentive. He had great advice regarding excursions (that he sets up for you) and also arranged our transfer out on the last day. The only hiccup was in communication with the owner prior to departure. We later found out that my emails were not transferring from the VRBO site to her so she never saw them. I highly recommend staying here. The upper bedroom is only assessable through narrow winding stairs so make sure your group is all able to navigate them.
