About this property

Stunning Greek villa, gorgeous ocean views, terraces, wifi, AC, pizza oven

If you love relaxing on a gorgeous, safe, clean, beach and then stroll from the beach for a fresh seafood or vegetarian lunch or dinner at the best fresh food taverna on the beach, then Abela Villa is for you. The Villa is majestically poised on a hillside overlooking the blue Aegean sea. It is a Classic Stucco Greek Villa, steps to a beautiful swimming beach, wonderful ocean views over the sparkling Aegean sea, marble terraces dripping in bougainvillea with palm leaves shading you from the Greek sun as you relax and wait for your pizza to cook on the outdoor wood-burning pizza oven. You'll also find modern amenities like free WiFi and air conditioning in the bedrooms and dining area for your serenity and comfort.
Please note the rates are listed in US dollars as VRBO does not allow us the option to list Euros. Select your local currency on the upper menu next to "feedback" to see rates converted to your currency. The payment will be converted by your credit card company.

From the minute you arrive, you'll find everything you need, and our local manager Arja, who speaks Finish, Greek, and English is close by in case you might need anything.

The villa contains four bedrooms on two floors with a blend of antique and new furnishings. The villa will comfortably accommodate up to ten guests but NOTE there is one bathroom that contains a full bath, separate shower, and toilet. Also, there is no dishwasher as lack of water and plumbing provide a challenge.

With four bedrooms, a kitchen, dining room, living room, and a spacious marble bathroom, you'll experience true comfort indoors. Outside, there are a variety of balconies and patios offering private secluded spots to relax with a glass of wine and a book while you enjoy the ocean views, breezes, and Greek ambiance.

Swimming Beach
Less than a 2-minute walk and you are swimming in the clear beautiful water and relaxing on the beach at Abela bay, which features the best taverna with fresh local food on the island.

Please note that rates are quoted in USD. VRBO requires USD for this listing.

Abela is a small town on the sought after southern end of the island. It features a charming safe beach with a delightful fresh food taverna.

Syros is a wonderful blend of Greek and neoclassical architecture and tradition. Syros is the capital of the Cyclades named after the circle the Cycladic islands make around the sacred island of Delos. Delos is a day's ferry ride away and is well worth a visit, along with the neighboring islands of Mykonos. Santorini and Rhodes are also reached by ferry from Syros and are well worth a visit during your trip.

Syros is rapidly becoming popular with tourists who appreciate its true Greek nature and diverse geography. Syros can be rocky and dry, similar to nearby Mykonos, which makes the sparkling blue Aegean pop even more. Depending on the season, the hillsides can also be green with herbs, purple with flowering wild thyme, or yellow with flowering helichrysum. It is a favorite with wildcrafters and bees!

Villa Abela is where the American College of Healthcare Science study abroad Holistic Nutrition and Holistic Wellness Lifestyle classes are offered each year. Distillation of essential oils and aromatherapy is also offered and taught by renowned experts Dorene Petersen and Robert Seidel. Visit the College website for more information.

Please note that we are required by the Greek government to charge each guest a Climate Crisis Resilience Fee of $11 per night. This tourism tax will automatically be added to your booking and remitted to the tax authorities.

Dorothea R., Newbury

Great villa with loads of space
We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Abela. It's huge, yet homely with plenty of space for our family of five. The managers Arja & George were incredibly helpful & sorted out the minor problems we had immediately. The beach is small but charming and the restaurant extremely good (if a little unvarying in its menu). It is definitely worth hiring a car to visit other beaches in the area - we particularly liked Kini and Galissas. One of the things we really loved about this holiday is that although the beaches were busy, they were never over-crowded, which is pretty hard to find in August. If you're looking for great night-life, this isn't the place for you, but if you just want to kick-back, unwind, and relax - it's perfect.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
1 petite semaine à Syros
Les points negatifs: l annonce mentionne un lave vaisselle. Or il n y en a pas. 1 seul wc dans 1 seule sdb, c'est juste pour 2 familles (il y a quand même 2 petites douches extérieures qui depannent) . Les marches sont partout dans et dehors la maison. On ne peut rien y faire, bien sûr, mais pour les personnes avec des problèmes articulaires, c est dur à un moment. Les points positifs: la communication avec la propriétaire et Arja. Les points de vues sur les différentes terrasses. La literie plutôt bonne. Le nécessaire des premiers jours (sel, poivre, eau...).la maison a quelques années mais elle est chaleureuse. Dans l ensemble, une maison où il fait bon vivre en vacances.

Super belle maison proche de la mer
Maison très bien équipée avec plusieurs terrasses protégées, fleuries, clim, wifi, grand salon, cuisine équipée. Elle est située à 100 m d'une belle plage de sable. Seul point négatif...des toilettes au premier étage ou salle de bains manquent. A 8 nous avons séjourné 8 jours et avons tous appréciés cette maison. Le couple assurant le service a été également disponible et d'une grande gentillesse!

Peaceful Bliss
We absolutely fell in love with this place. It's quiet so if you're interested in the "Night Life" it's not for you. But if you want to go somewhere and totally relax it's wonderful. We enjoyed the restaurant down at the beach and the convience of it was great. You can also take the short walk up the hill to the other beach where we would eat at Fuego where we found some friendly service. The beach is a little stoney but not enough to cause any problems. The villa was well stocked with towels and everything you need in the kitchen if you want to cook. There are so many nooks outside to escape to find a quiet place to read a book. Someday I know I will look forward to going back!!!!

About the host

Hosted by Dorene Petersen

Host profile image
I first came to Syros in 2001 and instantly fell in love. We settled on Syros as it offers the best of both worlds - the classic beach feeling and community along with all the amenities of a decent sized Island and town. Abela villa is centrally located on the south coast and surrounded to the north and south with the most places to see and do nearby. If you are considering Mykonos or Tinos, consider Syros instead. Syros lets you capture a little bit of serenity now in the midst of our busy lives!!! Our vacation rental home is ideal for getaways, family vacations, and retreats. The villa is immaculate and completely furnished for your stay in the Greek Islands. All amenities are provided - bedding, linens, towels, dishes, cookware, and more so you can plan to stay for a while. We hope you will relax, enjoy your time here and find your own serenity!

Why they chose this property

I stumbled upon this property and instantly fell in love. Miles of marble terraces and a short stroll to a beautiful swimming beach. Abela bay is tucked away so most tourists pass on by not realizing that this gem is tucked down a village lane. Its quiet but there's a lovely taverna right on the beach. We'll quite often be at the beach all day!

What makes this property unique

We offer personal service to help you get the most from your stay. All linens, tableware, etc are provided along with plenty of extras such as books, kites, balls, frisbees and more! Plus we have free WiFi. Hey, we all want to get away at the beach, but most of us need to stay a little bit connected!!! We LOVE the air conditioning in the bedrooms and the OTE TV that gives us over 80 channels many in English! Our local manager, a Finnish native who has lived on Syros many years, speaks Finnish, English, and Greek and will assist you with anything you need during your stay.
