About this castle / palace rental
LOCATION
The location of Opera Villa is one of its greatest advantages for guests who wish to enjoy luxury without being isolated from the island’s essential services and infrastructure. Messaria is an authentic and lively village with year-round activity, where restaurants, cafés, supermarkets, pharmacies and all essential services can be found within a very short distance.
The villa is approximately 10 minutes from the airport, 20 minutes from the port, just 8 minutes from Fira and around 10 minutes from Santorini Hospital. The nearest beach is approximately 2.5 km away.
In addition, within about a 10-minute walk from the complex, guests can reach one of the most beautiful spots in the area to enjoy and photograph Santorini’s famous sunset, the Caldera and the volcano.
From the villa, guests can also enjoy year-round walks through the picturesque alleys of the traditional village of Messaria, among old mansions, stone houses and characteristic examples of Cycladic architecture.
FACILITIES
Opera Villa is part of a brand-new complex completed in 2024 and inspired by the medieval and traditional architecture of Santorini.
The complex has been constructed using natural, handcrafted materials of exceptional quality, with volcanic stone, marble and solid iroko wood as its dominant elements.
High-quality craftsmanship is a fundamental part of the philosophy of Opera Villa.
All interior staircases are finished in marble, while the main living areas feature solid iroko wood flooring. The kitchen is also crafted from iroko wood and Sunny marble, while the bathroom furniture combines iroko wood, Sunny marble and stone washbasins.
Handcrafted wooden mirrors, wardrobes, works of art, blown-glass lighting, crystal and porcelain details complete an interior where traditional architecture meets contemporary luxury.
Naturally, all areas are fully air-conditioned.
Although the villa is located in a very central part of the island, the surroundings remain exceptionally peaceful. In the evenings, guests can relax beneath the magical Aegean sky while enjoying views of the sea, Fira and a large part of Santorini.
The complex offers private parking and easy direct access from a public road, which is particularly important for guests who choose to explore the island by car. One of the greatest shortcomings of many accommodations in Santorini is the lack of private parking. As a result, guests often have to walk long distances from a parking space, which they may already have struggled to find, to reach their accommodation, arriving frustrated and tired. Opera Villa offers the convenience of parking directly within the property.
SPECIAL FEATURES
One of the most important features of Opera Villa is the rare combination of a large private swimming pool and a private heated Jacuzzi/Hot Tub, offering guests two completely different relaxation experiences within the same private property.
On the large private terrace of approximately 60 sq. m. is the beautiful private swimming pool of approximately 25 sq. m. Here, you can relax while enjoying open sea views, without the presence of other guests or unwanted noise disturbing your peace.
The terrace also features four sun loungers, a sun umbrella and an outdoor lounge area, creating a private relaxation space that essentially becomes an extension of the villa itself.
On the lower level of the villa is the private heated four-person Jacuzzi/Hot Tub, set within a distinctive cave-style spa area. Here, guests can enjoy the warm water in a completely different, sheltered and atmospheric environment at any time of the day.
The combination of the outdoor private pool and the indoor heated Jacuzzi/Hot Tub creates a complete private wellness experience: sunshine, refreshing water and poolside relaxation during the day, followed by warm water, tranquillity and a spa atmosphere whenever complete relaxation is desired.
INTERIOR LAYOUT
Opera Villa is filled with colour, natural light and a unique sense of energy. It is arranged over two different levels, with each space designed to have its own individual character.
KITCHEN & DINING AREA
On the first level, covering approximately 40 sq. m., is the fully equipped kitchen, crafted from solid iroko wood and Sunny marble.
The kitchen includes an oven, refrigerator, cookware and utensils, kettle, capsule coffee machine and toaster, allowing guests to prepare anything from a simple coffee to a complete meal.
The same area also features a dining table and a sofa that can be converted into a single bed. The space is illuminated by distinctive ceiling lights and handcrafted wall lamps made from colourful blown glass.
FIRST BEDROOM
The first bedroom, approximately 25 sq. m., is illuminated by a porcelain chandelier and handcrafted blown-glass wall lights.
It features a handcrafted mirror and wardrobe made from iroko wood, a television and large balcony doors providing direct access to the pool. From the bedroom, guests can enjoy views of the sea, even while lying in bed.
The combination of direct pool access, views of the Aegean and handcrafted details creates an exceptionally romantic and atmospheric bedroom.
SECOND BEDROOM
The second bedroom features two comfortable single beds, which can be joined together to create one large double bed, offering flexibility according to the needs of each group.
This arrangement makes the room ideal for children, friends or a second couple, while maintaining the same carefully considered aesthetic and sense of comfort found throughout the villa.
A particularly special feature of the second bedroom is its direct connection to the cave-style spa area, creating a unique sense of privacy and relaxation.
CAVE-STYLE SPA AREA
The cave-style spa area, covering approximately 35 sq. m., is designed to resemble a natural cave and is one of the most distinctive and atmospheric spaces in Opera Villa.
It features a private heated four-person Jacuzzi/Hot Tub and a shower.
The space is illuminated by ceiling lights and colourful blown-glass wall lamps, which enhance its cave-like character and create a warm and highly atmospheric experience.
It is a space designed for peace, decompression and rejuvenation, where guests can disconnect from the outside world and enjoy the privacy of their own personal spa within the villa.
All staircases are finished in marble, while all areas apart from the spa feature solid iroko wood flooring. The kitchen is crafted from iroko wood and Sunny marble, while the bathroom furniture combines iroko wood, stone washbasins and Sunny marble. Handcrafted wooden mirrors and wardrobes complete the interiors, while paintings decorate all areas of the villa.
This is a place designed for you to live the holiday of your dreams. Every part of it has been created to make you feel completely immersed in comfort and enjoyment. The warmth of natural wood, the elegance of marble and the handcrafted details blend with the light of the Aegean, creating an environment where comfort and luxury become part of the everyday holiday experience.
The combination of the large private swimming pool, the cave-style spa and the private heated Jacuzzi creates the perfect setting for truly unforgettable Golden Moments.
