This
17th
century ‘canava’ –cave house is furnished
to a high standard in the traditional style of the
Cycladic islands. Approached via an intimate and
inviting courtyard, one enters a vast living area
complete with high vaulted ceilings in the traditional
Santorinian style. The dinning room is serviced by a
well equipped galley-style kitchen.
A
hand-made, stain glass window leads to the master
bedroom with a large, circular King-size bed, cool white
walls and an Italian tiled floor. Accommodated within
this bedroom is a large Jacuzzi set with mosaic glass
tiles. The en-suite bathroom has all the modern
amenities, including a large overhead shower and a
hand-made marble basin.
A
curved staircase leads from the open-plan living area to
a mezzanine floor with a double bed. A moon shaped
window gives an exceptional and romantic view of the
Caldera.
The
third double bedroom-or suite- has a private seating
area with a fire place and is reached both by a separate
entrance from the courtyard and an internal door leading
to the main living space. There is a small kitchenette
and a mini-bar. The en-suite bathroom is spectacular
with its large circular bath, with an overhead shower
and a recessed hand-made ceramic gold-leaf basin.
