Thirty metres from the sand at Platy Gialos, this villa sits at the upper floor of a quiet hillside residence with the Aegean shimmering in the distance from its shaded terrace. Mornings are easy here – wake to hillside views through tall windows, then step outside with an espresso before the beach calls. Daily cleaning means you come back to a fresh room each afternoon, which matters more than you'd expect after a salt-and-sun day. It's a snug, calm retreat that puts one of Sifnos's best beaches practically at your door.

Home truths
This is a compact studio, and storage space is limited. It's ideally suited to a couple or a pair of friends travelling light rather than a group looking for spread-out living space.
Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.
The apartment sits on the upper floor of a shared residence, so you'll be using stairs to reach it – worth bearing in mind if you're travelling with heavy luggage.
The host team is known for being responsive and hands-on – previous guests have praised their helpfulness, and daily cleaning is included, so you won't need to think about upkeep during your stay.
There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home.
You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
The entrance to this home is shared with the building's other residents.

About Sifnos
Sifnos, a gem in the Cyclades archipelago, embodies the quintessential charm of the Greek Islands with its harmonious blend of natural beauty, traditional architecture, and culinary excellence. The island's landscape is a picturesque tapestry of whitewashed villages, terraced olive groves, and azure bays, under the ever-present Mediterranean sun. The island's capital, Apollonia, is a labyrinth of narrow alleyways and whitewashed houses that cascade down the hillsides, offering a peaceful retreat from...
