A villa where they go the extra mile
A group of 5 couples had a wonderful stay in this property. The villa was clean, spacious and well maintained. The host, Argy, went out of his way to make our stay wonderful, including arranging transport whenever any of us needed it. Everything was well organised and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended.

An amazing place to celebrate my 60th with friends and family
An absolutely gorgeous place to celebrate friendships and family. With a full kitchen, two living rooms, a veranda, 5 rooms, an outdoor pool and separate bbq patio with hammock there were many places to gather or getaway if you wanted a little alone time. Incredible views from pool where i often woke early to experience dawn. The villa was extremely clean and well appointed. After exploring Santorini in much heat and humidity it was always delightful to return to our beautiful home away from home to relax, unwind and cool off. As lovely as this villa was the best part was our amazingly attentive, communicative and thoughtful resident manager Argys. He arranged arrival and departures for entire group which was essentially 5 separate arrivals and 2 departures for many of us were continuing to Paros. He responded to every request for information or transport assistance and he stocked the villa with water, wine and juice. He arranged and delivered a special catered meal one night which was extraordinary. We felt very well appreciated and taken care of. If you want a truly special getaway where you can feel pampered and away from it all i highly recommend the Villa Deus villa.

Fantastic authentic Santorini villa for a family
Property provided transportation to and from airport/villa. Property manager was in constant communication and helped with restaurant reservations. Villa was cleaned daily. The space was perfect for our adult family. We hired a private chef (Two Spoons) one evening and had a fabulous meal on the outdoor patio. We enjoyed the pool every single day. Fabulous location and manager was extremely hospitable.

Villa Deus was incredible! Beautiful property, excellent views of the ocean, and all of the appliances needed for our stay. The Host and staff were top-notch! Our reservation included a private shuttle to and from the airport. The staff also coordinated a private tour of Santorini and wine tour. I cannot say enough positive things about the host/staff. Daily check-ins added to our overall amazing experience! I would absolutely stay at this property again.

A slice of heaven
Nestled on the side of a mountain between the eastern coast and the beautiful village of Pyrgos, this cave home is perfect for two families traveling together or one larger family. It’s incredibly comfortable and equally picturesque. Argy and George were incredibly accommodating in helping us meet our needs during our four night stay. If you’re planning a trip to Santorini, consider renting a car for part of your stay as the better grocery store close to the airport is 4 miles away and not walking distance and tve next closest market is in Pyrgos which is only a mile away but at the top of the ‘mountain’ (which is really use a very tall hill.) There are two excellent restaurants that are less than a 10 minute walk so that’s plus. Coordinating transportation to Fira or Oia is not difficult but rather pricey.

Santorini wedding
Our son had a destination wedding so two sisters, two parents and grandmother came from Montana to Santorini for a week. We had extra room so another couple stayed with us. Words and pictures do not do justice. This place is unreal. It’s perfect and then some. We had ample room for the 7 people who were there. The three rooms off the main house roomed the girls and our friends so there was ample privacy. The views of the sea and Kamari Beach were outstanding and we had nightly moonrises. Super close to the airport and about 10 minute drive to the the main town of Fira. It had a pool which we used daily and two covered porches and lounges for sunning. Naya and Kelly had excellent communications with me prior to arrival. Then Argy was our personal host who met us on arrival and got us everything from ATV’s, to rides anywhere and great advice on what to do. There was also daily cleaning and pool service. Santorini really is more than what you see in travel brochures. Fira and Oia are the splashy towns but we found Kamari and Perissa to be precious little beach towns more to our liking. Anyway, this is a review of the property not the island. I’d give it 6 stars but was limited to 5

RELAXING GETAWAY
Overall we had a very relaxing time at Villa Deus. The team were great communicators at all times, arranging our airport transfers and Argy was always on hand for any questions we had and for sorting out any problems. The daily housekeeping service was very thorough in keeping everything straight and clean. After a busy week in Athens, my kids appreciated the quietness of the pool and stunning views. I will say you really need a car to get around the island if you want to do. more than sit by the pool. The house is set right atop a hill, so gorgeous views, but a hard trek up and down to the grocery store. There is a great restaurant opposite the house specialising in small plates and Metaxi Mas a short stroll away, which were both lovely and we also used the coal barbeque in the garden to mix it up. Although we visited Oia, a 25 min drive, we were glad to escape the circus of this pretty but over visited town. My teen enjoyed visiting Santorini Donkey Brewery at the bottom of the hill to purchase a couple of each of their beers and host an at home tasting. My one small complaint is that the kitchen is quite old and the cupboards sticky with years of use. It was the one thing that could use some love and attention but overall we really enjoyed our stay here

Beautiful Villa
The Villa was lovely with great accommodation for our group of 8. Its a little away from the real tourist parts which was perfect. Short walk up to the beautiful village of Prygos with stunning views and lots of restaurants. Metaxi Mas restaurant, a five minute walk and Anemoloos at the top of the steps to the Villa both did really good food. You do need a car to see the whole island but our longest drive was 25 minutes to Oia.

The property is on a hillside overlooking the sea. There is a lovely restaurant literally across the street. The pool / patio area are so relaxing and almost resort like in the sense that we spent almost as much time there as we did exploring Santorini. The hosts are amazing, and arranged rides for us to and from the Villa as well as made reservations for us at one of the best restraunts in the area. All in all we had such a wonderful time, my only complaint is that we didnt plan to stay longer!

We had a blast! The property manager was very accommodating and helped us significantly in planning day trips to other towns, the beach, and booking reservations and rides. They were very trusting and honest with their recommendations. The villa is beautiful. The pool was clean and refreshing. It is in a great location only 10 minutes from the airport and from the major city Thira. There is also a restaurant right next to it so that was really convenient. Honestly I wish we stayed a day or two longer. It was great! Santorini is amazing! Book now!

Beautiful place
We loved this property. It actually is better in person than the photos show. That never happens! Fantastic staff. Argy is a true professional, rivals the best concierge at any 5 star hotel we have stayed at. The maid and Poolboy were also super professional, hard working and made the place a joy to be in. They took care of all our extra needs with a smile, and made our vacation truly stress free. Having your own private pool is such a luxury, especially in the summer when the beaches were very crowded. We also liked being a bit outside of town, as it was quieter and we could avoid the cruise crowds much easier. I want to come back on a regular basis. It was absolutely magical for our family.

This house was perfect for our 2 families traveling together. The house was really nice, the pool area was fabulous and the place was as described on VRBO. The manager, Ari, was amazing. He was always available and helped us with reservations for different restaurants and with any questions we had. We went to one of our best meals just walking distance from the house. Having a cleaning service everyday was icing on the cake. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing stay!!
This home was beautiful and very accommodating for our group of 9! The pool was great, the views were amazing, and the host was simply incredible! They were able to arrange all of our transportation to and from Fira and Oia. We had a cell phone to use and take out with us so we didn’t have to use our own data as well. The only slight negative is that the home was a little bit further away from Fira and Oia (about 15 -25 mun) it didn’t bother our group because we planned for that. But if you want things to be walk g distance this might not be the best place. Overall though, the vacation was amazing! We had a great time!

Fabulous!
Our family of 8 stayed for 6 days to celebrate our 25th anniversary and loved it!! Firstly, Argy was so helpful from the time we booked the stay. He made reservations for us and called us everyday on the trip to see if we needed anything. He also surprised us with a cake and a bottle of Proseco. The house was centrally located in the island so we were not more than a 45 min drive to Oia. House was near lots wineries and Yellow Donkey Brewery. We walked to and from via the back paths. House was near great bakeries and a grocery store with good beer and wine and produce and meat. While the main house is not air conditioned, they had fans. There is not a washing machine but we did use the laundry service. The pool was maintained everyday and it was crystal clear and clean. There was maid service everyday to straighten up. We ventured out during the day and came back to have happy hour by the pool before heading out to dinner. Must do- Metaxi Mas for dinner - can walk up the path from the house to the restaurant. Book ahead for outside table and go around 8pm. Franco's in Pyrgos for the sunset- wonderful! Captain Ted's boat cruise (don't do the hot springs, it will ruin your suit) but do jump off the wall at Ammoudi Bay. Dinner at Sunset or D'Mitri's in Ammoudi Bay- reservations a must and get close to the edge for the best view. Fira-best gyros were at Lucky's. Eat at To Psaraki on the water as well near the Tomato Museum. Do Akrotiki ruins but don't need a guide like they say. Best Beach- Perivolos. Gorgeous clean, deep water. Seaside is wonderful. Do the Fira-Oia hike- very pretty views, bring water. Driving is tricky so be careful. Loved our stay!!
