Villa Overview
Villa Caldera sits at the pinnacle of Imerovigli on Santorini — with the largest private heated pool on the entire caldera.
Four bedrooms, five bathrooms, and capacity for up to eight guests. The villa was fully renovated as a cliffside retreat, with a minimalist aesthetic that lets the caldera views carry the design. The heated pool runs along the terrace, private jacuzzis sit at different levels, and the roof garden is set up for evening sunsets. Imerovigli village centre is a 200-metre walk, and Fira is 2 km east.
The Villa
Four air-conditioned en-suite bedrooms, all with caldera or sea views. The main living area opens onto the pool terrace. The heated pool is the largest private pool on the caldera, positioned to face the Aegean. Private jacuzzis are set at different levels of the property, and the roof garden faces the sunset. A private chef is included — provisions are charged separately — with bespoke menus featuring Greek and Mediterranean produce. Daily housekeeping follows Mandarin Oriental standards.
Location and Neighborhood
Imerovigli, on the Santorini caldera — the quietest of the three caldera villages, known for its whitewashed houses and sunset views. Imerovigli Village Center is 0.2 km. Fira, the island's capital, is 2 km east. Oia Village is 9 km north for the famous sunset walk. Santorini International Airport (JTR) is 7 km. The caldera path — the walking route from Imerovigli to Fira along the cliff edge — starts nearby.
Best For
Families or a group of up to eight who want caldera views with walkable access to Imerovigli village. The four-bedroom layout works well for two couples or a single family. The heated pool and private jacuzzis make Caldera practical for stays outside the peak summer months. For a similarly scaled Santorini villa on the same caldera edge, Villa Aegean sleeps ten with five bedrooms.
Know Before You Go
Check-in 3:00 PM, check-out 11:00 AM. Minimum stay: 7 nights. A private chef service is included — provisions are charged separately. Full details on the Greece villa collection.
