Family-friendly vacation rentals in Islands

We loved our stay at the Blue Dome Villa. You could not ask for a more beautiful view! The interior was spotless and the bed was incredibly comfortable. We loved that there was two full bathrooms. My husband and I each had our own which made getting ready very easy. Alfred, our host, was incredible! He met us at arrival, helped us with our bags and showed us to the villa. He checked in with us daily to make sure we had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. We had an amazing time!

Book this NOW. This was hands down our favorite stay on our 2 week honeymoon in Greece. The location is peaceful and at the top of a cliff with the most stunning sunsets. The patio is airy, spacious and bright. Our room was cleaned daily. We rented an atv to explore the island (highly recommend). Our first night we ordered in pizza and wine and watched the sunset from the hot tub. Maria (the property manager) was quickly responsive and gave us lots of great suggestions. She was so friendly and accommodating. I don’t really even know how to explain how wonderfully peaceful this airbnb was - if I could have stayed another week here I would have - I watched the sunrise every morning with a coffee & a book and stretched in the hot tub. Side note: turn on the hot water an hour before if you want to shower longer than 5 minutes.

Anna and Teo were very responsive and helpful, especially with a tour guide and pickup at the port and drop off at the airport. Very nice to provide little snack and drink gifts too. Perfect location - close to everything.

Our stay was fantastic! The location was close to everything in Fira and we walked everywhere. The home itself was wonderful. Perfect space for a family of four with two teenage girls. The view was spectacular and the outdoor space made our entire visit. We could definitely stay again if we visit Santorini again.

By far, this was the most pleasant experience my family has ever had at a vacation rental. As an airbnb host myself, I didn't realize how much a host can improve the quality of the trip! Not only was this home everything and more that you expect from the beautiful listing, but the host's whole family came together to create a memorable and once in a lifetime experience for my family. We were so touched by their friendliness, generosity, and hospitality. The home itself was much bigger than I expected, with 5 separate bedrooms with stunning water views. The town of Lavrio is just a 5 minute drive away and is the cutest town to buy fresh fruit and veggies, as well as fresh caught fish. We also had the best iced coffee from the different cafes in town. We stayed for 5 nights, and enjoyed just the right amount of touristy attractions and beach lounging. We are so thankful for the opportunity to have stayed here!

Great place and location. Easy walk to the bus stop and to good restaurants. Place was beautiful with a very nice view from the huge patio, we loved the pool/hot tub. Lots of stairs/uphill to get there which was only a little tough on day 1 with luggage but easily done if you don’t have any physical limitations, and without luggage no big deal.

This Villa was phenomenal! We had assistance with luggage transport and someone to meet us at check-in, breakfast delivered each morning, and the location was even more beautiful than we imagined. If you are looking for a private Villa in the heart of Oia, book this place!

The views are out of this world beautiful! We spent a lot of time on the patio or in the hot tub just overlooking the town and sea. It’s walkable to all the shops and restaurants. Only downside was walking through the tourists taking pictures by the blue dome. We were quick and just kept walking and had no issues. The quiet town after dark and first thing in the morning with the views was worth the crowds! Bed was comfortable and we booked in Villa massages which was so cool!

We had a perfect stay at Dimitra’s beautiful house. She was super responsive, helpful, and friendly. The house is spotless and has all the amenities you need. The location is peaceful and secluded but also easy to get to nearby restaurants and beaches. We wished we could spend the whole summer here!

The place is very nice - white house with blue windows and pink flowers. The location was perfect to reach with our rental car (which we could park right outside the door) and between a variety of beautiful beaches within walking distance. From the bed as well as from the terrace you could see directly to the sea. Communication with Stella was very nice and easy. She welcomed us with a tray full of food. It was cleaned daily and even the towels were changed. The only negative point was the mosquitoes. A fly screen in the window would be useful.

Loved this villa and hope to be back sometime in the future. It is just like the pictures. Ideal for the beach and restaurants as no need for a car. Host was very accommodating and let us leave our cases in the villa as we had a late flight.

We absolutely love Nikolas’ apartment. It felt like a Pueblo from the SW United States Native Americans. All the small doorways and high ceilings make it so unique. We love the little village near the apartment. Quiet during the day but full of life at night. The acoustics are wonderful. By the time you walk to the apartment from the little village in the evening, you can’t hear the music or people even though it’s very close by. We loved this. I like the little neighborhood because there are no cars allowed so it feels very safe walking around at night. Nikolas gave us recommendations for food and we loved the restaurant Argos. We would recommend this place highly. Nikolas was easy to communicate with, very responsive and kind. Thanks for letting us stay Nikolas!! Yamas! April & Ian

The place is excellent and exceeded all expectations! The apartment is spotless and sweet and has all the necessary amenities. Hosts are welcoming and kind and create a very warm and beautiful environment. I highly recommend it, as the amount corresponds to the quality. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Amazing place, beautiful garden and sea view. Only few steps down to a "private beach" and great local recommendations from Nikos. House inside very tastefully furnished and full of kitchen gadgets. Could be loud from time to time from the neighbours above. Overall very nice place to chill out and relax. I hope you like cats and can look after our little kittens 😽

Everything was great .. the place is beautiful and quiet.

Kinga & Nicolas‘ Appartement is just so nice and calm. We had an amazing stay and fell in love with the island.

We felt very comfortable. The villa has everything you need and inside everything is very well maintained. In the kitchen there is tea, olive oil and herbs. The terrace and pool are great! The pool is as shown in the last photo. The first two days were very windy, then less, but in any case, we and our 3 children absolutely enjoyed the fact that the pool was heated. Thank you for that! Below the property is a construction site, which is a shame for the view to one side, but otherwise not really disturbing. Unfortunately, we did not get to know Maria personally, but communication with her was straightforward and kind. We definitely recommend the villa.

Wonderful accommodation, charming touches on arrival, great communication with the host, we had recommendations for the whole stay and he checked in with us every day. The cleaning was done regularly. We were both quiet and enjoyed the outdoor space and the possibility of parking while being close to everything. No noise, very pleasant stay. Everything was tastefully decorated. Bravo!

Location was great - in the heart of Oia but above the main busy walking street. The host, Faye, was very helpful in providing local recommendations that were accessible and also more local. (There are SO many restaurants in the area) Dimitris was also really helpful with our luggage, especially amidst the harrowing mid day crowds. They met up with us immediately when we arrived and communication was clear and prompt. The home was really special, and with both indoor and outdoor pool and a beautiful view of the sea. Great touch with the bottle of wine and local gifts too! We felt very well taken care of and our every need was thought of. Would definitely recommend!

We have been to many countries so far. We visited Italy, Croatia, Hungary, Bułgaria, Canada,France but this place is the best . The house is very comfortable, cosy ,well equipped and it has its unique style.The garden is beautifull. We will always remember amazing sunsets and sunrises, the birds drinking water from the pool, the scent od flowers and plants.We used the pool few times a day. It was cleaned regulary. Kostas is a great host. We do appreciate his kindnese, care, generosity and hospitality. He gave us advice what is worth seeng, visiting. He even went with us to the town to do shopping. Kostas showed where we should buy the best vegetables, fruit, jest. Whatever you need he is always for you. Don't hesitate, just come to Dafni and spend gorgeous holidays.

An unforgettable stay! This Airbnb was absolutely perfect – romantic, peaceful, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The space was fully equipped with a washing machine, iron, stove, oven, mini fridge, TV, air conditioning – literally everything you could ask for. The view and the pool were out of this world. We spent hours just relaxing and soaking it all in. Plus, there are tons of great restaurants within walking distance, which made everything even more convenient. What really made the stay extra special were the hosts, Nantia and Kostas. They were incredibly warm and welcoming, always checking in to see if we needed anything. They surprised us multiple times with delicious pastries, lovely souvenirs, and even gifted us a fantastic bottle of wine. We absolutely recommend this place. Worth every penny and more – we can’t wait to come back!

This place was a highlight in our time in Greece. Not only was the property absolutely stunning with breathtaking views, but the hosts went really above and beyond for every element of our stay. We asked about how to get around and they offered to organise a car, which they then had delivered to us, at a discount, within half an hour. Then when we celebrated my birthday during the stay, Katerina showed up with a surprise birthday gift including wine. Both Katerina and Markos were super friendly and accessible, and Katerina knew the area in detail and gave lots of great personalised recommendations of where we could eat when I told her I was vegan. The room was made up daily with fresh sheets and towels and the entire stay was five-star hotel-level. My partner and I couldn’t recommend this place more highly! Honestly, do not go to Mykonos without staying here.

We had a very nice time at Koni's. She was super nice, warm and always helpful – you felt welcome right away. The pool was a real highlight, as was the breathtaking view. The accommodation was very clean overall, which is very important to us. However, you can tell that some corners are a bit outdated. A few renovations would really do the whole thing good – especially in this price range, that would be a nice bonus. Nevertheless: The atmosphere, the friendliness and the location make the stay absolutely recommended. Thank you, Koni!

Sofia’s house is simply amazing. The view is beautiful, and the indoor and outdoor space is perfect for a wonderfully relaxed holiday. The outdoor sofa area and bbq area behind the house are perfect for a family, and the pool is a wonderful addition with lots of space to sunbathe, swim and play. The pictures capture the house brilliantly, and it does look exactly like them. Sofia gave us some brilliant suggestions of things to do, and places to eat, and was so responsive during our time with her if anything went wrong. Nothing was too much trouble! I’ve seen some reviews about the drive to the house, and if you’ve driven in mountains before you’ll have no problem. There are a few steep corners and hairpin bends, but absolutely nothing to worry about. Just try to arrive in the daytime if you’re worried. Also, remember to do your food shopping before you head to the house as there aren’t many local options. Amazing place and we’re already thinking when we can return!
