Why they chose this property
A private estate retreat
Patmos Villa Sophia is prevailing practically alone over a uniquely advantageous ten acre plateau in the most aristocratic area of the historical island, Epsimia Bay.
It literally offers a breathtaking 360 degrees panoramic view of all the spectacular surrounding seas and islands, as well as the thousand years old Monastery Castle of Saint John’s.
Patmos Villa Sophia is decorated and furnished in traditional style, it aspires to immerse you in the original celebrated island life.
What makes Patmos Villa Sophia unique:
Featuring a private 50 square meters pool with sun terrace, the estate lies just 150 metres from Epsimia Beach and is located on the amphitheatrical center of the island providing advantageous access to all its major attractions.
The monumental sight of the Cave of the Apocalypse, the popular intellectual elite and celebrity settlement of Chora, the scenic town of Skala with its port, and the picturesque and quiet fishing village of Grikos are all within a 4 kilometers radius.
As most travel experts, tourists and permanent inhabitants agree, it is hardly surprising that Patmos island made it on to Forbes’ the list of most idyllic places to live.
With only 13 square miles of island surrounded by the Aegean Sea, beautiful unspoilt beaches, great summer sunshine, luxury mansions like Patmos Villa Sophia and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere it is expected to appeal to many.
Even before stepping onto the island from the ferry, you can feel that you have come somewhere very special.
As the island has been declared a holy site, and the town surrounding the monastery, lying right across Patmos Villa Sophia plateau, is a Unseco heritage site, there has never been any over-development.
Also, the fact that getting here is not as simple as just landing on the next charter flight ( the nearest tourist airports are on Samos and Kos islands) for many is definitely for the best, since the island retains the air of an unspoiled retreat.

What makes this property unique
Natural luxury and elegant Patmos Villa
Fitted with a fireplace and traditionally decorated, this air-conditioned 272 square meters Patmos Villa comes with 5 double bedrooms, two of which located in 35 square meters studios, all with separate entrances, private bathrooms and exclusive balconies overlooking spectacular expanses of the island.
Opening to a living room balcony and a patio, it consists of a seating area with built-in sofa and satellite TV as well two kitchens with stove, spacious refrigerators, ample indoors and outdoors dining areas.
Patmos Villa Sophia includes a library room with complete office facilities, PC, internet, telephone center, teleconference etc and it is a fully equipped unit including a washing machine, free parking and free WiFi available throughout.
Guests may relax at the sun loungers of the sun terrace by the pool or use the BBQ facilities. A roof garden with amazing sea views is offered and port and airport shuttle service can be provided, if requested, at a very reasonable extra charge.
Patmos island is popular not only among the faithful making pilgrimages to the monastery but also with vacationing Athenians and a newly growing community of international trendsetters—designers, artists, poets, and “taste gurus” (according to the french edition of Vogue)—who have bought homes in Chora, right across Patmos Villa Sophia.
These masters of style set about creating what eventually became hailed as one of the most gorgeous island homes in the world, with celebrities and royals helicoptering in for the tranquility and beauty of the holy isle.
The word soon spread thanks to many famous guests and celebrities but, happily, administrators have carefully contained development, and as a result, Patmos retains its charm and natural beauty—even in the busy month of August.
In spite of all its international fame, the essence of Patmos Villa Sophia still remains in the simple truth that living on the small island is pure bliss.
