Dear guest, Welcome to Villa Santa Croce – a place that feels more like a discovery than a destination. Our historic villa, set in the heart of Santorini, sleeps ten and has been lovingly restored over seven years, with layers of history from the Middle Ages to the 19th century carefully brought back to life. We fell in love with the place and have been restoring the villa since 2017 under the supervision of the Greek Ministry of Culture to ensure that it preserves its original architecture and interior decoration, combining Cycladic simplicity and Venetian majesty. Indeed, Santorini was occupied by the Venetians for 4 centuries and have influenced the architecture of the captain's houses. The crossbows of Santa Croce have been restored with great care using natural materials, a very rare gem that you don't find easily anymore in the island! Whether you’re gathering the family for a luxury holiday, planning a romantic villa stay, or hosting a yoga retreat in Santorini, we offer space, privacy and soul – all wrapped in sunlight and Cycladic calm. Looking forward to welcoming you, Navez Family
