The beautiful village of Megalochori makes a welcome and peaceful alternative to the busy tourist attractions of Fira, Oia and the jostling of the summer crowds. Protected from the strong Cycladic winds, the traffic-free winding lanes lead directly to the village square with its pretty churches, picturesque Venetian bell towers and three excellent tavernas.
A gentle stroll, 150 meters from the heart of the village of Megalochori and tucked away, the Stone House provides an idyllic setting for a couple and is perfect for rekindling romance or a honeymoon.The history behind the villa is that it was used to produce 'Vinsato' which is a sweet nectar-like dessert wine and unique to Santorini. Two cylindrical well-like troughs which were used to collect the delicious nectar have been preserved and converted into unusual and very effective lighting features.
The Stone House consists of a luxurious open-plan studio with bedroom and living area, and a small kitchenette to the front of the villa. The spacious Moroccan style bathroom features hand-crafted brass fittings and has a stone banquette and large shower.
The enclosed cobbled courtyard and stone walls punctuated by indigenous plants and flowers create a very appealing space in which to relax and enjoy the Greek summer climate. A private plunge pool with amazing night lighting and massage jets completes this charming and luxurious hideaway for lovers.
Prices include transfer to and from the airport or port to the villa; car hire (manual Group B category), daily housekeeping and concierge services. The property is well equipped with air-conditioning in the bedrooms, Sat TV, DVD player, iPod docking station and WIFI.
