A short walk below the resort
Exo Gialos beach
A long, quiet beach of black sand with a handful of tavernas — the gentle side of the island.
Looking for Santorini without the crowds, the queues and the hotel corridors?
Sienna is a small eco resort of seven independent homes in an olive garden at Exo Gialos, two kilometres from Fira, on the island’s quiet eastern slope.
Every villa has its own entrance and a secluded terrace; most have a private pool with a sundeck. Inside: vaulted Cycladic ceilings, thick cool walls, full kitchens, stone basins and ceiling fans.
Below the resort is a long beach of black sand; around it are vineyards, fig and olive trees, and every morning the sunrise over the open Aegean.
The houses suit families with children, two couples travelling together, honeymooners who want privacy and friends who want a whole house to themselves. All pets are welcome.
Fully renovated villas for up to six guests, with two or three bedrooms, a large living room with a dining area and a full kitchen — dishwasher, microwave and coffee machine in the 3-bedroom. The private pool sits on an equipped patio with sun loungers; the 3-bedroom villa adds a master suite with a bathtub. Private parking at the door.
2–3 bedrooms · master en suite · up to 6 guests · private parking
The hidden gem of the resort: a newly built, fully air-conditioned apartment of 80 m² with two bedrooms — a double and two singles — a full kitchen and a large furnished balcony. No pool of its own, but the whole garden around it, and the same quiet.

With homes like these, the service has to live up to them. Our small team is on site every day and arranges whatever the stay needs.
Most of it is optional and depends only on your wishes: groceries delivered to the kitchen, a car waiting at the door, a boat for the day, a table booked where the locals eat.
