Villa Michaela has a fabulous location in the small town of Akrotiri, close to a range of amenities, while the capital Fira is only a short car journey away. The villa's fantastic positioning allows guests to enjoy impressive views of the volcano and caldera, while the old Castle of Akrotiri can be seen from the outdoor dining area.
The villa has been beautifully and lovingly designed with elegant furnishings, wooden ceilings and colourful paintings and ornaments. On the ground floor is the living and dining area, along with a fully-equipped kitchen area complete with a cosy corner seating area. Also on this level is one of the queen-size double bedrooms complete with a vanity area and one of the three bathrooms. Upstairs, on the first floor, is a further two double bedrooms, one of which has its own loft area complete with an additional double bed. There is also a basement area, which boasts the remaining two bedrooms along with a bathroom and spa room with an indoor heated jacuzzi.
Outside, the large private pool is the perfect spot from which to soak up the tranquil surroundings. There is also a dining area complete with barbecue, which is fantastic for alfresco dining or simply enjoying a glass of wine while watching the sunset.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa MichaelaSantorini is an Instagramers dream, so you need to get out to explore.
The beaches are legendary, but Red Beach is probably the most amazing.
You should visit the idyllic town of Ola with views over the volcano of Palia and Nea Kameni islands.
You should try to do at least one tour. If you like walking, the Caldera path between Fira and Oia is a must-do; some tours cover this. There are wine tours, boat tours, such as sunset or a volcano one, where you can pool and towns to visit.
Greek food is always good, but the mashed Fava bean, 'hummus' is one of Santorini's best local foods. Santorini's Cherry tomatoes are unique, so much so they have a museum dedicated to them. Also, try the Tomato Keftedes (Tomato balls). Unsurprisingly the local fish and seafood is good too. Finally, there is Melitinia, hand-prepared pasty stuffed with local soft cheese called "anthotyro" or "myzithra". They are only made in Santorini, and they are a delicious dessert!

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesWith lots of scenic walking and bike trails, plenty of beautiful calm swimming beaches, and exciting historic sites, Skopelos is the perfect holiday destination for families, however good to bear in mind the topography isn't particularly suitable for kids. Most of the beautiful towns are stacked on hilltops, which means there are narrow pathways and steep steps everywhere you go, not great for pushchairs or prams.
Kids enjoy exploring the two towns on the island; Pyrgos is built on a hill with an old castle on top and fantastic views. Emporio is flatter and smaller, but both offer plenty of opportunities to get happily lost. The cobbled streets of Oia and Fira may also be of interest. Ice cream, crepes, and a few stories about exploding volcanoes will add to the experience.
There is the Kamari open-air cinema. The movies aren't always kid-friendly, so check the schedule in advance, but they're usually popular movies in English (with Greek subtitles).

Really fantastic
Absolutely as advertised, and furnished as though it was lived in, not bland and bare as so many are. The owner was on hand when we arrived and knew the island well, offering to arrange any tours, visits, boat trips etc. She also texted or called most days just to check everything was okay, and to see if we needed anything. She could not have been more helpful. A maid came in daily for a general tidy up, clean and towel change etc. The coast road does pass by the front of the villa, but it's not too busy and is lower down than the villa garden, so it's a small price to pay to have such an amazing view.

Stunning views
We had a lovely week at Villa Michaela. Nikos was a very attentive host and made sure we were enjoying our visit. Leila was the kindest housekeeper and took excellent care of us. The house itself met our needs superbly, but the best part is the incredible views across the Caldera. We spent endless hours outside enjoying the views - morning coffees by the pool, swimming, a glass of wine in the evenings, watching the stunning sunsets. There is some road noise, but given the house is in Akrotiri, it's still much quieter than the areas around Oia and Thira.
