Emporio village has a beautiful view to the Gavrilo's cliff with its 8 traditional Windmills standing up impressively on the cliff's ridge. Emporio is home to some of the most important churches of the island.

The property is 20 minutes away by car to the main archaeological site of the island in Akrotiri.
The Kasteli of Emporio is a true masterpiece in terms of architecture, a small labyrinth, with alleys just wide enough for a person to go by between staircases climbing almost vertically up to a miniature balconies. There are doors seeming to lead nowhere, overhead bridges between houses, arches, domes all characterized by the renowned plasticity of the malleable volcanic material. The irregular, flowing shapes and forms are astonishing. The nearby Goulas was the fortified tower used for the crop storage and defensive reasons. Walk at the unique castle's roads is a must do while staying in Mantilida villa!
Every single corner, yard, house embraces the innocence of beauty. Donkeys and churches create picturable memories
It is located in a peaceful and traditional neighborhood ideal for those who seek peace of mind and privacy.

Great short break
We stayed for 5 nights, great property, bedrooms are a good size with comfy beds. Bathrooms are well equipped and large. Lounge had comfortable seating and a dining table.
Pool area is well kept with good quality loungers.
We had a few mosquitos on the first night so bought a couple of plug-in insect repellants and they weren't an issue.
One other thing to note, if you are hiring a car, make sure it's small as the streets up to the property are very narrow, we were in an Audi A1 and it was tight.
Overall highly recommended as a base to see Santorini.

Proprty is difficult to find and we had bed bugs. Driving to the unit is difficult at best. Sleeping condions poor as pillows were substandard. Fans used for cooling. Tap water quality is poor. Used toliet paper not flushable.

Beautiful away from crowds
We very much enjoyed our stay at this location. It's away from the major tourist spots like Fira and Oja. This means you get a more authentic local experience but also need transportation to get around. We booked tours or drivers as needed.

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful stay at the Mantilida villa house. The location was perfect for us and the pool area was very nice after a day of exploring. It’s a five star property and is just as listed. This house is a bit away from the tourist sites so a car rental made it possible to see everything on the island we wanted to.
The only things that were not 5 star was there is a spot light right outside the bedroom window that stays on all the time. The house was also very hot. They did come and fix the A/C but was still really hot. We bought fans at the local hardware store and they helped it feel cooler at night so we could sleep. Overall we would definitely stay there again snd highly recommend it!

Relaxing Vacation
The villa was clean, the owner was very responsive and the cleaning staff did a great job keeping our villa comfortable. Nearby we found a couple of nice restaurants, the beach is a short distance away, and 2 supermarkets within walking distance.
Very relaxing vacation and we will be back 😍

Superbe séjour à la villa Mantilida!
Rien de négatif à dire, Alexandra est une hôtesse extraordinaire! La situation à Emporio est idéale, près de Perissa et à 15 minutes de Fira. Je suggère de garer la voiture dans le stationnement à l’entrée du village, la rue qui mène à la villa est très pittoresque mais en voiture, c’est une autre histoire!

Fantastic stay!
We loved the house, the location, and Alexandra!!! She provided us with everything we could have wanted for two small children. The location was perfect for us, near the beach and lots of attractions. The layout of the house was great, the pool was awesome, the beds were comfortable, honestly it was one of the best places we’ve ever stayed (especially with two small children) and we’ve stayed in many countries, in many houses.

Lovely home
The house is fantastic--two lovely bedrooms and two bathrooms with a very nice indoor and outdoor space. Alexandra helped us arrange a driver from the airport to her home and met us there to go over everything--including where the nearest markets and restaurants were. Everything needed was within walking distance. The pool was lovely and we spent quite a bit of time just sitting around the pool. Alexandra also assisted us with renting some ATV's for a day. She was very responsive to every question we had.
We didn't have a lot of time in Santorini--really only 2 full days, so we didn't do as much as we would've liked, but the home and pool were so lovely that it was a pleasure to just hang out there. Just a note--there is a "sister" house that shares the property. We were lucky enough to be joined by 4 young Brits--who we spent a couple of hours around the pool visiting with....!
I would definitely recommend Alexandra's home--as would my 3 travel companions. If I make it back to Santorini--which I hope to, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here!!

Fijne tijd gehad
Het vakantiehuis is netjes en schoon. Twee nette slaapkamers met eigen badkamer. De keuken is ook schoon en goed voorzien. Het zwembad was ook fijn en er waren ruim voldoende ligbedjes.
Het vakantiehuis ligt een stukje op een heuvel tussen andere huizen, dus het ligt rustig. Het is nog geen 10 minuten lopen naar de bakker en supermarkt. Wij hebben de auto op de parkeerplaats iets lager op de heuvel geparkeerd en dan is het nog 5 minuten lopen naar het huis. Dat is goed te doen. Er zijn ook garages bij het huis, maar let op dat de huurauto niet te groot is! Dat is sowieso handig vanwege de kleine, nauwe straatjes.
Emporio is een klein stadje, centraal op het eiland.

Wir waren sehr zufrieden
Eine sehr schöne Villa in einem kleinen Ort im typisch santorinischen Stil. Die Gastgeberin ist sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und antwortet innerhalb kurzer Zeit. Alle Anliegen werden (wenn möglich) erfüllt.
Ein Supermarkt ist in der Nähe (nicht ganz 10 Minuten zu Fuß), ein Mietwagen ist zur Inselerkundung empfehlenswert.

Ce n est pas une maison mais 2 appartements !
Attention il : ne s agit absoluement pas D une villa avec piscine privée !
En fait, la maison est divisée en deux appartements et la piscine est Commune.
Du coup, le prix est bcp trop élevé pour les prestations proposées. En plus, la réalité est bien Moins flatteuse que sur les photos.
L appartement est tout de même confortable , propre et bien climatisé. L hôte nous a bien accueilli en nous expliquant les points D intérêts de la région . ( mais C bien gardé de nous dire que nous aurions des voisins avec qui nous devrons partager les 4 transats disponibles)
Au niveau de L emplacement, vous devrez prendre la voiture pour tout . Les fameux villages perchés, avec les petites maison traditionnelles blanches sont  minimum 30 minutes en voiture. Mais l île est petite donc vous pourrez tout de même tous visiter si vous rester quelques jours.
En somme, Meme si L appartement est agréable C est beaucoup trop cher par rapport aux prestations proposées . (en tout cas pour les prix pratiqués en Aout ).
