What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
this ultra-stylish retreat comprises a mere three villas. They’re the work of the Greek firm Aristides Dallas Architects, and they’re a very modern evolution of the classic Cycladic white-on-white look
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Agios Fokas Beach is a short walk away, and the harbor tavernas of Tinos town are an easy drive down the coast.

The rooms
Bedrooms sit sheltered below ground for cool privacy. Deep soaking tubs are sculpted directly into the plaster bathrooms.
The plunge pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Each villa opens onto a private plunge and reflection pool, fitted with hydromassage jets and a wooden sun deck.
How it began
Architect Aristides Dallas shaped the villas around stone and wind, drawing inspiration from Tinos's celebrated marble-carving traditions.
