About the House
Manna is one of the best luxury Greek villas for rent, a delightful 19th-century farmhouse, lovingly restored by its Greek/Irish sculptor owner. Set within 5 acres of private gardens on the peaceful island of Syros, this four-bedroom retreat sleeps eight (a double in the main house & three twins across the courtyard). Inside, discover antique furniture, original tiled floors and thick stone walls that keep the interiors cool in the summer heat. You can enjoy the owner's extensive library and record collection. This is a much loved family home that the owners are happy to share with you and which wraps you into its embrace.
​
Step outside and the magic continues - the gardens are wonderfully natural and shaded - offering plenty of hidden corners to relax with a book. A large courtyard with a bamboo canopy and marble dining table sets the scene for long, lazy alfresco meals. Tucked among the trees, the waist high plunge pool is perfect for relaxing dips offering a peaceful spot to escape the midday sun.
​
Although completely secluded in its own grounds, you can reach the elegant capital of Ermoupoli with its neoclassical architecture and vibrant cafes within 15 minutes. There is a choice of beaches within a short drive. Net, the English-speaking gardener and a fount of local knowledge, will meet you upon arrival and is always on hand to assist.
