We had the most amazing stay, Manaion Kyani was exactly the peaceful, clean and gorgeous place to stay! The host Takis, provided a host Vasia she was amazing and they both answered questions, had lists of places to eat and things to do. They had rental car ready and available. We would recommend 100 stars and this stay to everyone we know!
Saving the best for last, this was the house that kept on giving. Each day we noticed something that made the house and our stay more unique. The house was very spacious yet intimate. The pool area was very relaxing, and the upstairs sitting/ bar/ entertainment area was just perfect for a calm evening. The outdoor dining area gave a lovely view of the village and sunset. The location of the house is right in the center of the traditional town of Meglachori. Nice restaurants within a short walking distance shout out to Raki ! Vasia was so helpful from the beginning and throughout our stay when we had a few issues. She was right there when we needed her and came to our rescue- from the challenge of a new rental car replacement to the extraordinary effort of returning important documents we thought were lost. She and Takis are truly the "A" team and excelled beyond all our expectations. We will never forget our last day, culminating with the town festival dancing and music well past our bedtime. A great time, a trip of a lifetime for my husband and I, we are really hoping to return!

Dear Susan,
Thank you so much for such a glowing and heartwarming review! Reading your words truly made our day. Vasia and I are beyond thrilled to hear that you felt so at home and enjoyed every corner of the house—from quiet moments by the pool and sunset drinks on the terrace to soaking in the authentic charm of Megalochori (and yes, Raki is definitely a local favorite!).
We were more than happy to assist with the rental car and those important documents. We know how stressful unexpected hiccups can be while traveling, so making sure you felt supported and cared for was our absolute priority. Being called the "A team" is the highest compliment we could ask for!
How magical that your trip ended with our village festival! Joining in on the music and dancing under the stars is the ultimate Greek tradition, and we are so glad you got to experience that unforgettable energy before heading home.
It was a true joy hosting both of you. You have an open invitation whenever you’re ready to return to Megalochori—we can't wait to welcome you back!
Warmest regards,
Takis & Vasia
What a spectacular experience we had staying at this amazing villa. The pictures do not begin to do it justice. It is a truly unique, special property which worked perfectly for our group of 3 couples. From the beginning, our host Takis was so accommodating and helpful. He helped us so much with recommendations and reservations. Including the car in the rental made this a true bargain. Location worked well for our agenda to visit the whole island. A fabulous Santorini experience!

Dear Amy, thank you so much for the kind words! It was a true pleasure hosting your group and helping you navigate our beautiful island. I’m thrilled that you enjoyed the property and felt well-looked after. You were wonderful guests, and you are welcome back to our villa anytime!
The whole family was so happy with the “mansion” that, as you see, our review was a solid excellent. After our group tour with National Geographic we ferried from Crete and found this wonderful retreat which was a nice counterpart to the organized trip that preceded our stay with you and fit the needs of of our family perfectly. We were greeted by your property manager, Vasia, and moved in seamlessly. Among her suggestions was the art gallery and restaurant, Alisatchni, just across the way where their warmth and hospitality as well as their food drew us back twice. We also had a nice time just out our door at Raki when we arrived back from Parissa beach a bit worn out and they accommodated us well. We were able to include the Fira to Oia hike despite the heat and even our 10 year old granddaughter loved it. Though a repeat trip is not planned you will hear from us if that were to be possible!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review!
We are absolutely thrilled that our villa was the perfect, relaxing retreat for your family after your National Geographic tour.
It was a joy to host you, and we have passed your kind words along to Vasia. Please give a huge high-five to your 10-year-old granddaughter for conquering the Fira to Oia hike—what an absolute champion! We are also so glad you loved the hospitality at Alisachni and Raki.
If your travels ever bring you back to Santorini, our doors are always open. Safe travels to you and your wonderful family!
Konstantinos was an amazing host. He helped arrange a few outings for us that were very enjoyable. The accommodation was just as pictured. The village was so charming. The shops were also amazing. Restaurants and staff were also fantastic.

Dear Chris,
thanks so much for the kindest words!

Villa was as represented. Great accommodation for our two couples. Plenty of room, outdoor space, daily cleaning by housekeepers, great communication and support from Konstantinos and Takis. Two minute walk to cute village with restaurants, mini mart, gelato and coffee.
Great property in a quiet town away from the crowds. Close to all the sights though. Host and concierge were very helpful. Made checkin and checkout easy. Helpful with tour arrangements too. The property had all amenities we needed. Good restaurants, a pastry shop, and bus stops are an easy walk. The complimentary rental car came in handy when going to the grocery and some local sights. Overall, a great place to stay in Santorini. Would recommend it.

Definitely an experience I would relive!!
This is not the first time my wife and I have visited Santorini but I can honestly say it was one of the best...
Our stay in mansion Kyani was truly an experience I would wholeheartedly recommend to any demanding traveler.
The day we arrived was very hot and our trip a little tiring but we were fully rewarded when we took a refreshing dip in the swimming pool and relaxed with a chilled bottle of wine (courtesy of management) in the cool courtyard. The rest of our stay fully lived up to our expectations.

It was an absolute pleasure to have you as guest in our villa!
Thank you for the kind words and we hope to see you again soon!
No words! Amazing villa! Amazing host! And most of all, amazing city! This is the place to stay in Santorini. We went to Oia and fira for one day, and OMG! Like Greek Las Vegas! This end of the island is so nice, much more authentic, peace and quiet. All the people we meet in in the village was so friendly and helpful. The villa is just WAUW! Like 3 separate flats. The host was so helpful. The only little minus was that the pool is so cold, that we almost didn’t use it. If we lived there, we would put up a solarpanel. But the was the smallest thing. You need to stay here!!!!!

Wow—thank you so much for the amazing review! I’m truly happy to hear you loved the villa, the village, and your overall experience in this beautiful, peaceful part of Santorini. It’s great that you had the chance to explore both sides of the island and found Megalochori to be a relaxing and authentic retreat. It was a pleasure hosting you, and you’re always welcome back anytime!
The villa was perfect! It truly is three separate apartments, each with their own style and character, but with the locked gate it worked well for a family to spread out and still feel safe with the kids in their own units. The outdoor spaces are stunning both day and night. Megalochori is magical. It felt like such a blessing after a day of exploring the island to come home and walk through the town, under the dome of the church and arching flowers back to the villa. Konstantinos was very attentive and helpful and Takis also had great communication with us throughout our stay-thank you both! I really can’t say enough about our experience here. It exceeded our expectations in every regard. Thank you!

Dear Deanna,
thank you for the kindest words! I was a true pleasure to have your lovely family in our villa and we hope you return one day!
Nice stay in Kyani villa. Right in the centre of the village which is very pretty with plenty of good restaurants. The villa is set in a private courtyard with three separate units each with a small kitchenette. The pool is clean, there are fresh towels and the villa is cleaned every day which is really nice. Konstantinos and takis from Santorini heritage villas are excellent. Really good communication, very helpful and accommodating. Impossible to fault really. They even organised a hire care as part of the package which was delivered to the villa!I dropped one star as I think the villa could benefit from the main bedroom kitchenettes being improved into a proper kitchen with a free standing fridge/freezer (rather than 3 small cabinet ones), better cooking utensils etc. as it is it’s quite hard to prep meals for a family of 5 with food and crockery in three different locations over two levels. A better bbq area would also be a positive I think too. Other than that, hard to fault for location, booking, logistics. Really good company to deal with.

Dear Ben,
thank you for your kind words! It was a pleasure to have you in our villa.
Regarding your feedback about the kitchenettes, please note that the layout of the villa does not allow for a big kitchen that is why we are clearly mentioning 2 kitchenettes and not kitchens in our villa description.
Thanks again and we hope that we can accommodate you again in the future!
This is a stunning property and well priced. The host and concierge went above and beyond to help us with everything.
What we did not realize is the property is actually 3 separate bedrooms with bath and varied levels of kitchen supplies. There is no connection between the 3 suites, and only a small common area and dining room in the upstairs suite. Guests climb 3 sets of stone steps to get to the top.
It may have been our fault when reading about the property, but we thought it was a home all on one level.
However, the amenities of beauty and location should not stop anyone from renting this property, it is gorgeous.. just know the areas are on different levels and not interconnected.

Dear Ann,
thank you for the kind words!
We are happy that you enjoyed our villa and our service and we hope you return one day!
We loved our stay here! There were six of us women from three generations of our family ranging in ages 25 to 80. We rented the entire villa and all three separate apartments were united by the outdoor courtyard. The apartments were well furnished, clean and offered daily maid service. The bathrooms were large and offered all the amenities. The air conditioning worked very well and we were never uncomfortable.
We gathered at the pool every afternoon after mornings of touring or beaching. We upgraded to a small minivan and were able to navigate the area easily. The car park is less than three minutes away and very accessible. The restaurants right in the middle of Megalochori were a minute away and offered so many great places to eat. Takis, the owner, was available to answer any questions and checked on us regularly. Constantinos, the concierge, greeted us on arrival, answered our questions and made restaurant reservations for us. He went above and beyond! He also told us what day to visit Oia based on how many cruise ships were in port so it would not be so crowded.
I would completely recommend this lovely villa to anyone wanting to have a traditional Greek village experience. You are five minutes by car from Fira, if you want lots of hustle and bustle. If you have a group of six, rent the entire place and spread out! This was a perfect place for our family stay on Santorini.

This was in the heart of the city which was perfect! The host was extremely helpful and communicated daily to help with anything we needed. The space was sparkling clean the pool area and table up top were perfect settings for a Santorini stay. Some of the lighting in the bathrooms were very dim so bring a magnifying mirror to help with that. Don’t miss the charming winery right next door, GAVALAS, the local shops and restaurants. Get out for tours and then come back to relax and spend the time at this gorgeous home! Most necessities are there for you. Water from sinks are not drinkable so keep that in mind shower is only warm for about 15 minutes. One bedroom downstairs had cobblestone for shower and toilet so make sure to have some sort of bathroom slippers. Be careful to duck down in certain places to not bump your head ( we are all taller). Lot’s of hills & you need to get your luggage up and down to your transport on your own. Highly recommended for a more rustic, local stay!

Dear Angie,
thank you so much for the kind words!
We hope you return soon!
My family stayed at Kayani in June 2026. We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed the tiny village of Megacholori. Takis has this property so beautifully cared for and provided so much information on excursions & dining. Vasia, the concierge was amazing and warmly checked us in and provided suggestions. Takis arranged for rides to and from the airport and provided a rental car as part of the accommodation, which was perfect as we visited both Oia & Fira and did a catamaran one day. Having the pool and outdoor area was an amazing add to our stay. We walked into town each night and got dinner and Mr. Scoops. The bakery was great for breakfast and the laundry place next to the bakery was great. While the property had a washer, the laundry place wash, dried and folded our laundry (there was no dryer on property). There was also a cute winery next door that we visited and purchased wine from. The one thing I’d take note of is that while the property sleeps 6, each “apartment” sleeps 2 so if you come with children make sure you know that the kids will not be in the same area and have separate door entrances to their areas. Our kids were fine with it, but if you have young kids just something to note! What an amazing trip with top notch hosting by Takis & Vasia!! Highly recommend!

The home was in a great location, and the owner and concierge both offered awesome advice. The village this home is located in is less busy than other locations on the island, yet offers numerous restaurants and shops. The rental care akes getting around the island so easy.

Great villa with a walking distance to shops and restaurants.
Me, my wife and our friends stayed at this villa and couldn't be happier with our choice. Konstantinos met us up on arrival and walked us through the whole place explaining the rules and showing us around. The villa came with a free rent a car which was used by us to go to the beach (it’s about 10-15 drive from the villa) and restaurants. There is a few restaurants and shops with in one minute walk from the villa.
If we decide to come back to Santorini this villa will be on our top list to stay at.

It is the outdoor spaces which make this place special. Not really a place to stay inside and cook other than something light. The amenities were first rate from towels to included rental car.
