About this property

Aetoula – Sunset-Facing Cave Retreat Above Mylopotas, Ios

Perched on a quiet hillside above Mylopotas Bay, Aetoula is a charming cave-style retreat that blends Cycladic tradition with modern comfort. This intimate 80 sq.m. stone house faces southwest, offering breathtaking sunset views over the Mediterranean Sea and across to the island of Sikinos—perfect for slow mornings and golden-hour evenings.

Designed for couples, families, or small groups, Aetoula features two serene bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, ensuring both comfort and privacy. The open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area is bright and welcoming, fully equipped for relaxed meals and cozy nights in.

Step outside onto your private terrace and take in uninterrupted sea views—ideal for breakfast in the sun, an afternoon coffee, or a glass of wine as the sky turns shades of orange and pink.

Just 700 meters from one of the Aegean’s most celebrated beaches, you’re moments away from Mylopotas’ vibrant mix of beach life, water sports, restaurants, and bars, while still enjoying a peaceful retreat away from the buzz. The lively town of Ios is only 2 km away, making it easy to explore the island’s renowned nightlife and culture.

With its cool cave interiors, natural stone details, and tranquil setting, Aetoula offers a unique island escape where relaxation and adventure meet effortlessly.
