Peppermint

The concept: Santorini, backstage

Peppermint reads as a quietly refined retreat in Oia, featuring five bedrooms, sea-light rooms, and terraces that gather sunsets during the summer months. It pairs two infinity pools — one heated upon request — a wine cellar, and a gym with sauna, allowing workouts and wind-downs to be part of the same day. The house suits travelers who want sensory calm—salt air, slow meals, and rooms that let the horizon do the talking.

Outdoors

Outside, low walls and terraces frame the views, with two pools and a private hot tub that reflect the changing light; loungers and shaded nooks encourage slow reading. An outdoor fireplace and discreet sound system give evenings shape, while the BBQ area, complemented by climbing plants, makes al fresco dining cozy. The grounds are compact and practical, designed to feel private yet hold the occasional shared evening.

Indoors

Interiors put comfort first with multiple living spaces, a dining table for eight, and a kitchen suited to both home cooking and private chef service. A gym with sauna and direct access to the pool supports routines, and the wine cellar makes in-villa tastings easy; two office spaces give adults workspace without dominating family life. Bedrooms are ensuite and practically arranged so larger groups move through the day with ease.

Good to know

While at Peppermint, you can pop to the nearby store for supplies before a long day and ask our concierge for the off-hour sunset spot—locals have favorites and we’re happy to share them. Oia’s bustle is close if you want it; otherwise, the villa is a calm return, with simple comforts waiting: warm towels, a fireplace, and enough space to stretch after the walk. Consider the villa your quiet backstage to the caldera show.
