5 Bedroom Villa in Megalochori, santorini

Welcome to ‘The Winery Estate’ a unique blend of traditional architecture, history and style coupled with modern convenience. Accommodating 12 guests with indoor and outdoor facilities it is a perfect blend of location, comfort and convenience for your stay in Santorini.
The Winery Estate is ideally located in the peaceful village of Megalochori - One of the true gems of Santorini. The property’s location means an easy stroll will take you to the picturesque village square, which plays host to an array of quaint tavernas and shops, along with a mini market and a locally renowned bakery. Its central setting allows for a short drive to all parts of the island, including the Caldera, Fira, Oia, Amoudi Bay and the beaches of Perissa and Kamari. The Winery Estate is the perfect base for all your activities on Santorini and ensures easy access to the best that the island has to offer whilst also providing a relaxing and peaceful getaway when required.
Dating back to the 17th century, The Winery Estate was originally called 'Canava Beko' and exported its wine all over the Aegean. You will notice that the floors are all ever so slightly sloping so when the wine was pressed, it would naturally run into the large pits in the ground, called "muster pits", from here it would be paled out and once in the barrels it would be stored lined up on each side of the main chamber (now the living room and kitchen). These centuries old muster pits are still visible in the property however are covered with glass that supports up to 300kg of weight. The property retains many of the original features, even the old metal pulley which would hoist the barrels on to the backs of donkeys for transport and is still hanging from the ceiling in the living room.
Around 1930 Canava Beko stopped producing wine. The property was abandoned and fell into disrepair, which was the condition in which we found and fell in love with this unique property. Starting in 2008 Canava Beko has undergone a loving 7 year restoration and modernisation bringing the property up to an immaculate standard to ensure a comfortable and carefree stay for all guests for what is now lovingly called ‘The Winery Estate ’
Furnished with care and attention to detail with pieces chosen to compliment unique architectural style, the property comfortably accommodates 12 guests in complete privacy.
The main house sleeps 10 guests with 4 air conditioned bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and features a large fully equipped kitchen including all appliances, cutlery and crockery as well as a lounge and dining area with a open fire place to comfortably accommodate all guests. The lounge area features a flat screen TV, Netflix and a DVD player with a broad selection of films for those stay indoors nights. Laundry facilities, linen and beach towels are provided.
In addition, the ‘Bergonia Suite’ is a fully equipped, self-contained cavern house accommodating 2 guests, with bathroom and jacuzzi, kitchenette, a dining terrace, and its own entrance off the pool terrace, perfect for romantic nights in.
Outside, the estate includes 3 large private terraces: The Pool Terrace, with a large pool (40sq meters), loungers and pagoda; the Roof Terrace with a pagoda, hammock, loungers and dining area, perfect for all day sun worshipping or siestas in the shade and the Main Terrace, with a double, built in barbecue and a dining space for 12 guests as well as a comfy seating area with shade. All terraces have stunning views over the local vineyards and family churches in the village as well as the ancient windmills of Vlychada and the Aegean Sea beyond and are perfect for relaxing, dining and entertaining.

Summary: We loved the Winery Estate for our annual "sisters vacation". Megalochori is more relaxed than other towns, which was just what we wanted. The pool, which got lots of use, was always clean. The house was so comfortable and inviting after a long day of sightseeing. We enjoyed the sbort walk to the bakery/grocery everyday. Our host was always very pleasant and helpful. We had a wonderful and memorable experience at the Winery Estate and would highly recommend.

Summary: How luck are we - was our consistent refrain during our stay. The villa was gorgeous and much larger than we pictured. The property is well maintained and being close to horses and mules added to the magic of our stay. The only downside was we had to request housing to come at least every other day to empty our trashcans. Since you cannot flush TP this was something we needed. We also had to request the pool cleaners a few times. These were small issues and overall one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed. The host and house manager were lovely. The house manager stocked our fridge prior to arrival so we had yummy snacks and water the moment we arrived. If you need a fabulous villa in Megalochori this is the spot!

Summary: This spacious and beautiful villa was the perfect spot for my husband and me, our adult children and partners as well as my sister and husband. It is renovated in a spectacular manner and no effort was spared to make it appealing and comfortable. Sarah the owner was full of information and responsive to any question or need. She and Petros arranged a yacht trip for all of us, initiated as a surprise for my husband and me by our children. It was glorious. The south end of the island is every bit as stunning as is Fira and Oia. Petros took very good care of every need during the week and he was a wealth of information about the island. On his recommendation, of our group walked up the hill to Pyrgos to see the sunrise. One of our daughters ran every morning to a new place and was so pleased by the variety of landscape afforded her. We all enjoyed the restaurants in Megalachori, the bakery was fabulous and one of the restaurants was a perfect spot for morning coffee. The pool was always sparkling clean and each of us enjoyed having a dip sometime during each day. Some of our party did the walk from Fira to Oia and raved about the experience. Two of them even walked back to Fira! We loved Persia beach, swimming and snorkeling there. Panos the driver was available any time we asked for his services. He was prompt and very professional. Thank you to all who contributed to a wonderful week away in the glorious Santorini sun.

Summary: A family of 11, we loved our week. The Villa was very pretty and in a less busy area, walking distance to the cute town of Megalochori. The host and villa manager were very helpful before and during the trip and gave great suggestions. Particularly some of the restaurants. All of the rooms were very cute and the pool was great to have. We enjoyed sailing, the archeological site in Akrotiri, sunset at the heart of santorini, a nearby winery and some of the beaches. A magical week!

Summary: We were extended family staying in Santorini for a family wedding. The Villa was beautiful and has been sympathetically restored. As it is an old winery it is amazingly cool in the heat of the day. The Villa has everything you need and I love the way they don’t skimp on anything. The Villa owner Sarah was so helpful in advance & also her manager Pedros was always on hand for queries. Sarah arranged for her driver Panos to pick us up from the airport and then he made himself available to take us everywhere all week. He was a star!

Summary: Loved the property and the privacy the rooms offered Located near a lovely little village which some great restaurants We preferred to eat there than in Fira

Nicky S. Jun 3, 2023 06:53:44 PM

Summary: Despite some very unseasonal weather for May - rain and cold wind - we have had a fantastic week and we were sad to leave. The room above the kitchen is great for children (not toddlers) but not really suitable for adults as there is little floor or hanging space and access is by a fairly steep spiral staircase. Petros the property manager was exceptional in his care and going the extra mile for us. One of our party needed medical attention during the week and Petros’s help was invaluable. We are truly grateful and quite frankly, don’t know what we would have done without him! With Petros’s support we were still able to have a fantastic stay in The Winery Estate. Would recommend!

Summary: The property is a special place and the owners did such a wonderful job in keeping some of the old winery intact and included in the decor. There are several steep stairs to climb to enter the house which was fine for us but may be an issue for some with mobility challenges. As this is a cave home it can get a bit loud inside (acoustics) when everyone is laughing, playing games but I’m not sure how this could be softened some. The home was well stocked and located in a small town away from the really busy part of the island which we all appreciated. We got to see chickens, roosters, cats, donkeys, horses and even homing pigeons pretty much every day which added to the uniqueness of the property. You will need a car if you plan to explore the island and you should! There is so much to see! Sarah was very quick to respond to our questions and anything we needed and we appreciated her recommendations on restaurants. We also used her recommendation of a local driver Panos to do a day tour and he was wonderful! Fantastic stay overall and would certainly recommend booking here for a family or group! Thank you for your hospitality and allowing us to stay in your beautiful home.

Summary: My wife and I had our wedding ceremony on a catamaran in Santorini, and used this wonderful estate as housing for us and our guests. The property is wonderfully renovated and dreamy. I highly recommend it for a large/ multi family.
