Waterfront vacation rentals in Ios

Karen was the perfect host, making us feel welcome and at home in her beautiful house. She was very helpful before we even got there, letting us know which ferry to take etc. The house is in a lovely spot, only a few minutes walk from the port, charming town, and a beautiful beach. She recommended restaurants and things to do and shared stories about the island's history. The apartment is beautifully decorated with everything you need. The outdoor living space is very private with amazing views, and comfortable spots to relax. Our stay with Karen on Antiparos was the highlight of our trip to Greece.

This apartment is an absolute gem! The location is incredible, with the sea on one side and the beautiful bay with a row of fantastic bars and restaurants just steps away on the other. The living space is small but perfect for two. The terrace is stunning and a great place to relax. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it!

It was a great stay at your Airbnb. It is very well located a few minutes' walk from restaurants, bakery, supermarket, souvenir shop and bus stop. At this bus stop you can also take the bus from the "Kamari tours" agency for excursions which is very convenient it saves you from going to Fira. The hosts are extremely kind, very available +++, they are very careful to make your stay memorable. The Airbnb was impeccably clean, every day the pool was maintained as well as the armchairs. The photos perfectly match the listing. They even take care of airport transfers if you wish. Upon arrival in the fridge we had water, juice, bread, butter, honey, jam, coffee pods and tea bags available. I can only recommend this Airbnb. Thank you so much for everything and for your responsiveness during our exchanges by msg. We look forward to welcoming you. Angélique

What a magical place to stay! A fantastic Airbnb in an amazing location! The place was beautiful, with pools overlooking the bay, couldn’t recommend it highly enough! The restaurants in the bay are great, but the Armeni Fish Tavern in the cove over is an absolute must! Thank you so much for having us!

We were looking for peace and relaxation and that is exactly what we found! The apartment is very tastefully decorated and the view from the terrace is stunning. We had a car and found it extremely helpful. Beaches are within walking distance, shopping is not. If you want to take a short hike, you can reach the nearest tavern on foot in about 1 hour. By car, several taverns can be reached in about 20 minutes. Manolis is a friendly host and for us it was the perfect place to stay! Thank you, Manolis!

Little gem – awesome AirBnb in, what we considered, one of the best areas on Paros. Less touristic than Parikia and Naousa and a bit remote (Drios is close and has great grocery places; ebike, scooter or car recommended to get around, there is also a bus station right at the main street), it is located directly at the sea and gives you access to a very private and clear beach. Especially the terrace is a very restful and private place and provides a breathtaking view. The flat itself is a shown in the pictures and very clean. Dimitrios is a very friendly and accessible host.

My stay was truly amazing! The house is located right in the heart of the most charming little fisherman village, close to everything you might need, yet tucked away in a peaceful spot that feels wonderfully quiet and serene. From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at home and safe, which meant so much to me as a solo traveler. The house itself is spotless (and I say that as someone very picky about cleanliness!), beautifully maintained, and full of character. The view from the balcony is absolutely breathtaking, waking up to it every morning was a dream. The owner was incredibly helpful and kind, always available if I needed anything but never intrusive. It’s one of those rare places where you feel both on vacation and completely at ease, like you’re coming home. I can’t recommend it enough and would return in a heartbeat!

We LOVED this location. First and foremost, the view was phenomenal. No matter what we did during the day, it was a priority to get back to our patio for sunset. On this island, that's irreplaceable. Second, we really liked being centrally located on the island. That allowed us to go north one day, south another, and check out what was near us on our partial days. I would not want to stay in Oia with its overcrowded insanity. And staying just north of Fira in an area called Firastefani meant we could walk to the action but be far enough away to not feel overwhelmed. We had an ATV and never had an issue parking nearbyish. Note, it is a little difficult to find the place the first time, and it is a little bit of a walk from where one parks. But trust me, it's SO worth it. Finally, the actual contact is a lovely woman named Rena who is responsive and provides all you need. You can choose to have your place cleaned every day or not at all, just let them know. This is a great spot!

The place was just as described, wonderful views and beautiful. Beatrice and Ester went above and beyond for us, loads of recommendations for places child friendly, beaches, museums etc. Aswell as loads of wonderful recommendations for places to eat. The villa was perfect and had everything we needed. Thank you again, we will definitely be returning. Xx

Nick is a wonderful host. He assisted with information well in advance of our trip and also assisted with transfers. He recommended a great place for our vehicle hire. The location is perfect. Within very easy walking distance of Logaras beach to one side and Piso Livardi Marina on the other. Plenty of great restaurants, coffee and convenience stores. There is a supermarket 450m walking down the road, and additional shops in Marpissa nearby. The outdoor spaces and views from the property are exceptional. With a large balcony, and front courtyard, plus additional outdoor space for washing etc. We were so please with out decision to avoid the much busier Naoussa and elect to stay in this location. We stayed August and had two weeks of high season and two weeks a little quieter and both were wonderful. I would highly recommend this property and Nick as a host.

Nina and her in laws are really nice people. So friendly and helpful. We could not fault anything about them or there place. Great location across from Logaras bay. Just beautiful. The place was so clean, we loved it. Perfect.

The place was beautiful with amazing views. The reception was very responsive and helped with our luggage and helped arrange transportation. I would highly recommend staying here.

A beautiful location. It was so serene. Very comfortable. Had everything we needed. Hosted a dinner for 8 on the balcony. Ioannis and family very happy and helpful. Would definitely stay here again. I felt so chilled.

Gorgeous place in a beautiful location - and we were very well taken care of with prompt communications and some thoughtful touches

This place was great!!! Walking distance (10 or less minute walks) to a bakery, 2 super markets, a couple restaurants (recommend Thalasea), and amazing beaches!! The cutest place with a beautiful outdoor area for eating and drinking coffee!

We really enjoy our stay in Fanis and Tina. Service was great and the breakfast good, which got delivered every morning at 8.30 sharp. The hot tub and the view was too diy for. A bit chilly in the apartment, but we stayed at the place in mid November. The hot tub saved us😊

We had an amazing stay at the Beach Suite Kastraki! The house is charming, well-equipped, and provided everything we needed—from kitchen essentials to bikes for exploring the beautiful surroundings. We loved starting our mornings with breakfast on the patio, watching breathtaking sunsets from the roof terrace, and unwinding in the jacuzzi pool after a day at the beach. The location is perfect, with the beach just steps away and great restaurants nearby. Angelika was incredibly attentive and made sure we had all the information we needed for a smooth, enjoyable stay. We’d absolutely stay there again!

Our stay at Avra was amazing and felt right at home. The place was clean, homely and had everything we needed! Katia was an amazing host - so responsive! She warmly greeted us on arrival, recommended some great spots to visit/try, and organised our car rental and airport transfer. This made our trip very stress-free and we always felt looked after while staying at Avra😊 Could not recommend the place and Katia enough!

Stella was an amazing host, friendly,helpful and responded quickly. She also kindly provided fresh bread, cakes, water and fruit which was a lovely touch. The area is right between plaka and orkos beach, walking distance to plaka beach. Beautiful spot to watch the sunset in the evening's. Stella was great for local recommendations on beaches and restaurants.

Such a lovely traditional apartment with the best location! The apartment is only a minute walk to the beach. Everything was clean and as described. The communication with the host was easy and very friendly. Aliki is definitely worth a visit and I can only recommend this apartment if you do so!

The location is perfect, right off the ferry. Room as described, view from the terrace is amazing. Great location for both town or steps from water taxi to beaches and Kato island. Would highly recommend and will be back. Great host.

A wonderful place to stay! It strikes the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility, being just a short walk from Oia. The plunge pool offers incredible views of the sea, making the experience truly exceptional. Yiannis was incredibly helpful, assisting with our bags from the car to the accommodation and again during checkout. Nothing was too much trouble for him! His excellent recommendations for restaurants and activities greatly enhanced our time on Santorini.

My stay at Glyfada Sea View penthouse was fantastic! The space was sparkling clean and well-organized, making it feel welcoming and cozy right from the start. Everything was as described and the view from the house was everything i needed and close to the beach as well. Plus, Kostas was incredibly cool and accommodating, making sure I had everything I needed and even giving me great local tips! I couldn’t have asked for a better host or stay. He took care of everything i could possibly need. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and friendly place to stay!
