Villa Alia - Syros

The villa is spread over 1.7 acres and built into the hillside, creating terraced gardens that blend seamlessly into the landscape. Created by renowned landscaper designer Helli Pangalou, the gardens are dotted with fragrant lavender, rosemary and thyme bushes, overlooked by carob, pomegranate and fig trees. The gardens also feature a small orangery and a working olive grove.

Surrounded by an expansive terrace, the infinity pool is truly spectacular. At an impressive 111 square metres, it features a long lap area and a shorter, shallower area with massage jets, perfect for lounging with a cocktail in hand. Post-swim, guests can soak up the rays from a sun lounger or relax with a holiday read under the shade of a pergola.

Heading up a level, there is a small terrace, perfect for morning yoga sessions, whilst the entrance level terrace offers more sunbathing spaces and another pergola with a second outdoor dining space.

The villa interiors are modern and inviting, with high ceilings, large windows and bright white walls, creating a spacious feel. The top floor is home to an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area with large windows and glass doors that allow light and fresh air to flow through the space and offer easy access to the upper terrace.

Downstairs, four well-appointed bedrooms sleep up to eight guests, with the option to accommodate an additional two children on request. Three bedrooms offer king-size beds and en-suite facilities, whilst the fourth twin room has a separate but private bathroom. For extra children, the master bedroom has a separate office area with a single futon and a second double room features a dressing room with a single bed.

The unbeatable location, stunning views, and modern interiors make Villa Alia the perfect choice for a luxury holiday in Syros.

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