Catch the Santorini sunsets without the crowds at this remarkable Greek home tucked away in the postcard-pretty and oh-so-chic hilltop village of Megalochori. With slick white exteriors and domed ceilings, this place brings all the Cycladic vibes you're chasing. Open its cobalt blue doors to reveal a suntrap cobbled courtyard garden surrounded by tumbling bougainvillea, olive trees, and an outdoor heated Jacuzzi luring you in after a day at the beach. While inside, its cool vaulted interiors with quirky archways and neutral, earthy tones make for a peaceful escape. Friends getting together for a Greek getaway will love how spaced apart the two bedrooms feel, with the second bedroom and bathroom tucked away in a private guest house accessed just across the courtyard. When it's time to soak up the beauty of this gloriously traffic-free village, dive into its wander-worthy labyrinth of alleys leading to authentic tavernas for traditional souvlaki, upmarket restaurants, and a bakery to pick up flaky baklava. Pop into the local winery – perched dangerously close, just a two-minute stroll from your door. Or chase the bustle down to the capital, Fira, just a ten-minute drive away, as are some of the island's best beaches. Our vote goes to the Red Beach with its clear waters backed by volcanic rocks and, of course, those jaw-dropping Aegean sunsets.
