About this house rental

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

The villa consists of four levels. The first level features a spacious living room and dining room, overlooking the terrace and the dazzling caldera. Furthermore, a large, modern and fully equipped kitchen is situated on the ground floor (ceramic cooking plates, oven, dishwasher and large refrigerator). The second level consists of two bathrooms and one bedroom with a king size bed facing the backyard, where there is a third bathroom, and a laundry room. On the third level, there are two bedrooms featuring king size beds and facing the upper terrace of the house, which shares magnificent views over the caldera. The fourth level of the house, is an open loft with a king size bed. 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 Villa 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.

This tastefully renovated villa 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 house offers housekeeping service every other day.

Upon a reservation’s confirmation the host is always available for any inquiries or pre-arrival arrangements regarding transportation, excursions, special occasions, etc.
Staying in one of Nicoletta’s houses, guarantees personalised and discreet service, which allows guests to unwind and have a carefree stay. Nicoletta herself or a member of her team is always available during your stay in order to assist you and ensure you are having an enjoyable holiday.

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.

Our family of 5 adults enjoyed our stay at Nicolette’s home in Armeni Bay. The home is as described, but not quite as glamorous as the photo shoot displayed. Some would have preferred a stay in Oia with a more glamor and ease. The others loved the proximity to the water and the privacy the location provided. The description of the transportation to Oia (other than the 300 steps) was correct, just not recognized by us for what it truly was. Our lovely Captain, Themis was there to boat us to Amoudi Bay which has some nice restaurants but…. Getting to Oia was a pain. Since we did not have a scooter or car, we had to rely on a taxi or private driver. The transportation up and down (4 miles) cost at least $50 each time. Nicolette is happy to arrange any type of transportation but it is costly. I’m writing all of this because I want anyone who books this home to know what they are getting into. Now that I know, I WILL be coming back - just doing the transportation differently. I do recommend that you spend the money for her to arrange for your airport transfer. They will stop at the grocery store which is a necessity for basics if you don’t want to eat every meal out. They provide all the coffee you need for the time. The highlights of our trip other than the absolute beauty of the Island were: Themis - so accommodating and a wonderful person, Our two days of private boating with Miltos of My Blue Cruises, and the restaurant at Armeni Bay which was amazing.

We absolutely loved staying in this gorgeous home. It was super comfortable, clean and just such an amazing location. We felt far enough away from crowds to be totally relaxed, but close enough to pop up to Oia when we felt like it. We spent our days relaxing on the porch, swimming, fishing and just watching the beautiful scene in front of us. We miss it!! Thanks for having us to stay! Highly recommended!

If you want an incredibly unique, one-of-a-kind stay, with peace and quiet but full access to all that the island has to offer.... Look no further! Christina and her team (Capn Thimus and Tour guide Chris) were amazing throughout our visit. Prompt replies, easy to work with and just lovely people. The home itself was a fantastic abode with everything we needed (including comfy beds, soft towels and a fantastic location), but had a unique twist of it's secluded location. DEFINITELY not for the faint of heart (it's work getting up those stairs!!!!) but highly recommend for a unique stay on an incredible island

We had an amazing time staying at the Armeni villa! The house itself is breathtaking and the proximity to the bay meant that the ocean was at our doorstep. Having the private boat access was incredibly convenient for arrival/departure, as well as to get to Oia without having to take the nearby stairs. Alex was always on call and went out of her way to help us organise ATVs at short notice, which was much appreciated. The house was very clean, with lots of little touches that made our stay more comfortable and convenient. A massive thanks to Alex and family, as well as Themis the captain for making our stay so magical. We would highly recommend holidaying here and would love to return someday!

We are so happy we made the choice to stay in Armeni Bay at Nicoletta’s lovely house away from the hoardes of Santorini. The house is delightfully decorated and furnished, impeccably clean. Themis the boat man was fantastic at looking after us and Alexandra met us and showed us everything about the property and was very responsive. The housekeeper came every 2 days to change towels, clean up and remove rubbish. We managed the stairs a few times during our stay and enjoyed the most fabulous swimming directly in front, watched the super yachts come & go. Ate at the lovely & hilarious Armeni fish restaurant a few times as well as the amazing Vineyart in Oia town. My one tip is to do a good shop - especially water before you arrive at the house so you don’t have to buy and carry once there. We had a rental car that we left on the road at Ammoudi Bay and that was very handy. Thanks everyone we had a fantastic stay.

From the moment we arrived at the dock to board the boat to the house to the charming little enclave on the bay. The steps to the village above was a nice walk to wonderful restaurants,shops, & views of the calidron. Yachts came & went, the water was gr8 for swimming. The restaurant located on the beach was spectacular & welcoming. Would return again in a minute. The host, boat driver, & car were all great & went the extra mile always for us.

What a fantastic find. The villa was wonderful. A perfect location with amazing views. The sea literally outside was crystal clear and felt like silk! Captain Alex and his boat were definitely needed as I have recently had a knee op so couldn’t do the steps but nothing was too much trouble. We ate at the Armeni restaurant next door every other evening and the food/ staff were lovely. Thanks Nicoletta- your communication was excellent and you made everything including transfers very easy. We would love to return in the future.
