My wife and I, decided to have a mini break on May 2009, so Santorini was 
our obvious choice, since we are Greeks and this is our favorite island!
A friend of ours recommended to stay in a villa for once and avoid the hotels in Caldera with the 
magnificent view but total lack of privacy..
I must say, we are so glad that we followed our friend’s advice, as we had a 
terrific time! First of all, the villa we chose (Mansion Sophia) was 
astonishing! It had a really big and very private courtyard with a beautiful 
garden and a Moroccan-Style pool where we spend most of our time 
lounging in the hammock or the pool beds.. There was also another, 
smaller courtyard with flower beds and a big dining table which has lovely 
view of the village (Megalohori).
The interiors of the house were also breathtaking and spacious: The master 
bedroom had a really big and romantic four-poster bed. Being an architect, 
I was impressed by the ceilings which were traditional, high vaulted and by 
the authentic polished wooden floors of the salon. The manager of the 
company told us that this house was built on the 19th Century and
belonged to a wealthy merchants’ family who exported Santorinian wine. 
That explained the beauty and layout of this house, which also featured a 
canava area for the production of the wine.
We cannot recommend enough Mansion Sophia, as it offers 
not just accommodation, but the privilege to stay in a place full of history 
and culture!
