Tucked above the renowned Antiparos Cave, Villa Ismelda is a marvel of eco-conscious design and effortless elegance, bathed in panoramic views of the Aegean Sea and nearby Cycladic islands. As you approach, the sleek, modern structure catches your eye—an architectural gem that harmonises with the natural landscape. This spacious retreat is also the first villa on the island to be fully powered by solar energy, adding a meaningful touch to your stay.
Step inside, and you are greeted by an open, airy ground floor where each room flows seamlessly into the next. The fully equipped kitchen leads into an inviting living area, perfect for gathering. The dining room, with space for up to fourteen guests, is flanked by its own secluded courtyard—a peaceful spot for morning coffee or intimate conversations. A multifunctional room offers sea views while doubling as an office and a discreet fold-away gym, ideal for a quick workout. If it’s time to relax, descend to the lower level and discover a home cinema for cosy movie nights. Here, you will also find a wine cellar, a generous laundry room, and a staff bedroom with extra beds.
As you wander through the villa, each bedroom unveils its own private haven. The master suite is exceptional, with a king-size bed, an en-suite bathroom, and three terraces that frame sweeping sea views. The guesthouse rooms also invite relaxation, each with en-suite facilities, comfortable desks, and garden or sea views. A dedicated room for younger guests, featuring four stylish bunk beds, provides a fun, communal space that’s perfect for children or teenagers.
Outside, the villa’s charms continue to unfold. A large, inviting conversation pit, seating up to twenty, offers a cosy setting for evening cocktails or relaxed stargazing. An outdoor living room and a dining area, seating up to fourteen, make alfresco meals a must. Scattered sun loungers let each guest find their favourite sun-soaked or shaded spot, ensuring moments of solitude or shared leisure.
Villa Ismelda is an ideal escape, designed to offer every modern comfort in a setting that feels both intimate and expansive—a sanctuary where nature and architecture come together beautifully.
Villa Ismelda is located on the serene island of Antiparos, a hidden gem in the Cyclades known for its natural beauty, relaxed atmosphere, and crystal-clear waters. Nestled just above the famous Antiparos Cave, the villa offers sweeping panoramic views of the Aegean Sea, dotted with neighbouring islands and unforgettable sunsets.
Antiparos is the perfect destination for travellers seeking a blend of tranquillity and authenticity. Unlike its bustling sister island, Paros, just a short ferry ride away, Antiparos has a slower pace, allowing visitors to truly unwind. The island’s charming main town features traditional whitewashed buildings, cosy tavernas, and small boutique shops. Beaches like Soros and Faneromeni are perfect for swimming and sunbathing, with pristine sands and inviting waters.
From Villa Ismelda, guests have easy access to hiking trails, secluded beaches, and the unique stalactite formations of Antiparos Cave. Its location provides a peaceful retreat that remains close enough to the island's main attractions, offering a balanced holiday experience that combines relaxation, adventure, and the captivating beauty of the Cyclades.
