Have you ever lost track of time as the sea breeze steals your thoughts? Have you ever let yourself fall in a comfortable space without a single worry, letting but a sun-ray interrupt your peaceful smile? Would you do it again? See here a villa that can fit your big dreams, with gorgeous views of Gialos bay, off the famous roaring nights of Ios, yet as close to them as your heart desires. The island of Ios is home to a wonderful paradox. Known across the world as a party destination, it never ceases to surprise you with an opportunity to relax and find serenity. This villa is located on a road that offers easy access to the port and Chora, the main settlement and the center of the island’s bustling summers. Like Ios itself, this location will always keep its promise to gift you a quiet evening if you feel like it. Imagine sipping the moon and the sea in a cocktail while perched on the side of the 57 sq.m infinity pool. The villa is spread on a plot of high inclination, granting panoramic views from everywhere. The three levels of the villa are all comfortable and bathed in the light of the Aegean. The basement (in essence ground floor) of 105 sq.m, can function as a separate guest house as it has a very large living room and kitchen, comfortable bedroom and two bathrooms. The ground floor of 90 sqm also has a very large living room and kitchen, as well as a bathroom. Finally, the first floor of 82 sq.m has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The levels are connected by both internal and external staircases. The frames are of high quality wood, in excellent condition, with double glazing. There is also the possibility of alterations in the building for even more openings towards the sea. On the upper side of the building, where the uphill asphalt road ends, there are private parking spaces. Most residential and touristic sites on Ios are around the port and Chora. The rest of the island is relatively lightly developed, even though it is already among the favorites of savvy travellers. Being a prominent touristic destination for foreigners and Greeks alike, Ios has a perfect blend of authenticity and modern amenities. Unlike other Cycladic islands, Ios has plenty of sandy beaches. This property is a few breaths away from Koumbara and Gialos beach. Among the island’s 32 kilometers of beach front in total, one can distinguish Magganari with its small coves, Mylopotas near Chora, Tzamaria, Psathi and Agia Theodoti for a calmer experience. Plans for an airport have been finalized but until then, Ios offers frequent connections with Piraeus and other ports around Athens, as well as other islands like Santorini and Mykonos. What makes Ios especially different from the more crowded and overpriced destinations, is its perfect balance of fun and peace, development and wild nature, picturesque backdrops and modern spaces. It’s a perfect spot to set sail for cruises around the entire archipelago of the Cyclades. If you prefer a good hike, you will never get bored of the numerous trails of cultural and natural interest. You should definitely relish a truly spiritual experience: a pilgrimage to the Tomb of Homer, the eternal poet, after an easy path and with a stunning view on the Aegean Sea. The touristic interest for alternative destinations in Greece like Ios is growing. That makes investment in the island a safe bet with a good ROI. The island and its tightly-knit community are friends to a refined clientele and to the ideal of sustainable development. This property is a showcase of the island’s balanced identity: luxury and mindfulness, tradition and sophistication, liveliness and calm. Would you like to experience this for yourself?
