Ios Beach House

Minutes from the Water's Edge

Sun drenched and perched in supreme privacy with faraway views of the Aegean, this beach house rental in Greece is fresh, sophisticated and crafted with a classic design philosophy. We like the traditional Cycladic elements combined with a quiet sense of luxury and simple detail. 

A chic fusion of traditional Grecian architecture and contemporary style, this beach house rental in Greece sits in striking contrast to the arid landscape, drawing you in and out towards the sea. 

Set along the western coast of Ios, five minutes from the water's edge this villa inhabits an enviable spot. Capturing the essence of the island’s spirit in its dazzling white facade and interiors, the home duplicates the traditional local architecture and building techniques with smooth lines and stylish simplicity. 

The two-story layout is bright and simple with a minimalist design and subtle elegance. The ground floor living room and dining areas sit adjacent to the fully-equipped kitchen which opens out to additional dining areas shaded by pergolas with views out to sea. Up one level are two double bedrooms that combined with the living room sofa beds, can accommodate up to 12 guests. Restful and peaceful, the rooms open to the fresh sea air and provide unobstructed scenery while immersed in total privacy.

With multiple lounging and dining areas, the terraces are the perfect place to unwind and enjoy peace and relaxation with views of the endless horizon. The house comes equipped with its own private dock and 150 meters of shoreline just five minutes from the house.

Surrounded by stunning scenery and indulgent comforts, this seaview retreat is the ideal holiday escape for families and friends.

AROUND

One of Greece’s most beautiful islands in the Cyclades chain, Ios is halfway between Naxos and Santorini and has a reputation for hedonistic fun. Summers especially are the stomping grounds for the party set, but there are quieter pleasures to be discovered during off season. A craggy and wild landscape, the interiors of the island are in quiet contrast to the charming main village with its tourist pedestrian zones and boisterous nightlife. 

Just a short trek by car to the main village and the golden sands of Kolitsani beach (well known as a nudist beach), the house is ideally situated to navigate the best of the island. From Skarkos Hill's prehistoric sites and Homer’s Tomb, the island has many hidden treasures as well as private coves and secluded beaches that are only reachable by boat. Day trips to the islands of Santorini, Sikinos, Amorgos, Folegandros, Antiparos, Koufonisia, Milos and Mykonos are just a short jaunt.
