your island residence

 

 

 
visit the Aegean island of Santorini as our special guest

Step back in time to the elegance of 1864 and the modern comforts of a luxury home. Consider The Sea Captain's House & Spa as your island residence with our informal yet full service style. Experience how the sea captain felt upon returning home after the many months away from Santorini. You too will think you have 'returned home' to a very special place.

The House has three suites, two terraces, courtyard, five marble bathrooms, bar, wine cellar, Finnish sauna, mini-library, reception, full service kitchen and laundry. The two Terrace suites accommodate two people each and the third Courtyard suite accommodates two to five people. (The entire House can accommodate a small group of maximum 9 friends-family. Special Receptions can be catered for maximum 75 people.)

All suites have panoramic views to the sea and Santorini's volcano caldera, high vaulted ceilings, air conditioning, antique and traditional furnishings, Jacuzzi bath, satellite TV with DVD/CD, ISDN telephone with voice mail, PC internet connection, personal safe and original artwork.  Details on Guest Services page.

enjoy the little village of Oia in a private setting

We invite you for a very personal visit to Oia. Many of our guests travel extensively and are looking forward to an island visit in the comfort of a luxury, two-level, historic home instead of a typical hotel. You will normally meet four to six other house guests during your stay - and will enjoy the services provided by the British-American owner-host Tony and his international staff. 

The House is positioned on the island's cliff just twelve steps down from the main path through the Oia village. From your window you will have dazzling day and starlit night views to the sea and to the amazing Santorini volcanoes with the surrounding multi-layered caldera cliffs. 

You can easily walk to the famous sunset, the castle ruins, the charming little restaurants and tavernas, the artist workshops and small specialty shops, the village's bakery and sweet shops, even down the 220 steps to the Ammoudi fishing harbor for a swim and fresh fish with Greek ouzo.

Drench yourself in the Aegean sun on the House's rooftop, terrace or courtyard. Then cool down in the new rooftop hydrospa or in your suite's  Jacuzzi bath - or best with a special Bulgarian Yogurt & Honey Massage treatment at our Caldera Massages Studio & Spa.
(The House didn't have a pool in 1864 - and as a designated Historic Traditional Building by the Greek Ministry of Culture - it doesn't have a pool today.)

Guests enjoy swimming in the sea caldera near the village harbor, at the many Santorini "Black, Red, White" beaches and at the locals' "secret" naturist beach.
