Villa Aktaia

Built into the hillside, the property is spread across 2.5 acres and set on two levels. Terraced gardens surround the villa in greenery, whilst the hints of lavender, rosemary and thyme mingle with the salty sea air.

The lower level features a 100 square-metre infinity pool looking out to the rocky islets that dot the brilliant blue sea. A spacious terrace surrounds the pool, offering sun loungers to recline and soak up the rays. At one end of the terrace is a shaded outdoor lounge area with a bar, perfect for enjoying poolside cocktails.

The upper level features more plush seating where guests can sit back with a holiday read or relish a spectacular sunset. There is also a shaded barbecue area where guests can enjoy relaxed al fresco dining.

Indoors, high ceilings, large windows and bright white walls create a spacious and modern feel. A large lounge and dining area connects to the open-plan kitchen, which is fully equipped for preparing tasty meals.

Six spacious bedrooms are spread across two floors, sleeping up to 12 guests. The master bedroom is on the upper level, offering direct access to the outdoor lounge area. The remaining five bedrooms are on the lower level, overlooking either the pool terrace or the rear gardens. For those seeking a little independence or those travelling with staff, one bedroom has a private entrance and adjoins a handy kitchenette.

With its excellent location, modern facilities, and spectacular views, Villa Aktaia in Syros offers the perfect setting for the luxury holiday of a lifetime.

NB: For larger groups, the villa can be rented with neighbouring Villa Alia for up to 20 guests in total.
