Golden Shades

Experience the ultimate in relaxation at this hideaway on the east coast of Santorini. Just minutes from Oia, this is a place where serenity and sea views take centre stage – which, by the way, you can choose to enjoy from the sun-drenched terrace or private pool. Inside, the home is stripped back, simple and modern, with two comfortable bedrooms. It does lack a little natural light in some parts and the kitchenette won’t enable you to cook up a Greek feast, but that’s all the more reason to dine out and sample the local cuisine.

Home truths:
*While we love the overall simplistic, modern design of this home, it is lacking in natural light in some areas.
*You won't find an oven or hob here, just a basic kitchenette, so this home might not be the best option for everyone.
*The decor here is a little generic – those looking for a more luxurious stay may wish to look elsewhere.
*There are stairs to climb here. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
*The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
*Daily housekeeping, a twice-weekly change of linen and pool maintenance are all included here.
