My wife and I spent 4 days in this unique home with a great location - steps from the Aegean Sea. From the moment we booked the trip we had excellent communication with Irini and Akis. They were extremely friendly and helpful with suggestions for places to visit and things to do. We are definitely coming back!

My wife & I stayed at Sunhaus with our two daughters (7.5 and 3.5 years old) for the October half term and had an absolutely perfect stay from start to finish. The booking process is really easy, with great comms from Irini throughout. And we were able to shift the date of our arrival and departure back by a day really simply when we needed to. They also sent us their recommendations of things to do and places to eat in Santorini, sorted transfers from the airport to the accomodation for us and Irini's husband Akis was there waiting for us when we arrived, to show us around and make sure we were settled in - going above and beyond the call of duty to bring the kids some beach toys and a storybook, plus bring us a pack of water from the local shop so that we had some to get us started (as you can't drink the tap water on Santorini). He also lives in the Sunhaus next door so was always there in case we needed anything. The Sunhaus itself is really clean, beautifully designed, cosy and comfortable, with the essential utensils in the kitchen, plus oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, sugar and washing up liquid, which was a nice surprise. There's one double bedroom on the ground floor, which my wife & I slept in, whilst the kids slept on the mezzanine above the kitchen, which they found really fun. The only thing to note here is that we would not have liked our kids to have been much younger than they are now, as there is a bit of a drop from the mezzanine level that, whilst it has a single beam in the way, is best for kids to stay well away from just in case. Our two stuck to our instructions to take care, though, and all was well. From the mezzanine space you can also get out onto the roof terrace which overlooks the sea, which was an amazing place to sit and have lunch in the sun. Then, as everyone has said, this place is amazingly located if you like the beach, being just a few metres walk away. It's also right next to Irini's sisters yummy gelato ice cream shop, which is an added bonus! The beach itself is fine black shingle/coarse sand, but comfortable on the feet - and there are some layers/areas of finer/soft sand. We found quite a big patch walking along the beach towards the cliffs one day, which, the kids loved making sandcastles from. The sea was nice and gentle for most of the week, being completely calm on a couple of days and only rougher on windier days. There are also quite a few fish to be spotted if you take your snorkle or goggles. And there's a great shower at the Sunhaus to get that salt and sand off when you come home. We didn't hire a car whilst we were there, but actually found getting around on the buses pretty easy. From Perissa, all the buses go to Fira, where the bus station is a central point to get to all other major locations on the island. So, as well as wandering round Fira one day, we went to Akrotiri and Oia - all of which are well worth a trip. On our first day there, we also spotted a tourist train which went to another beach nearby at Vlychada, which you can't get to by bus, but sadly we discovered that the train had then stopped for the season, so didn't get to go. During our time there (21st - 28th Oct) lots of other places also began to close (inc the ice cream shop!) but there were still enough shops and restaurants for us to stay comfortably. And Akis said he would be there till mid November, with other bookings. Overall, we would recommend staying here in a heartbeat and we know for sure that the kids would go back in a second if they could. So, if you're thinking of a trip to Santorini, and fancy a pad that's right on a gorgeous black beach (rather than on a cliffside somewhere), then I'd say you've found the right place.

The location is amazing - the beach is on the doorstep! The accommodation was exactly what I was looking for: clean and modern with nice little touches. The downstairs bedroom and the upstairs loft with 2 single beds were both roomy. My only notes would be that it would be nice to have a light blanket instead of just a sheet even though the weather is warm outside. Also, it would be nice if there were screens on the windows for mosquito season. However, the huge draw for this place is that the owners treat their guests with a personal touch. I had many questions about the island and Akis was so helpful and available. He even gave me a couple of rides which was super helpful because it's quite expensive to get around this island via taxi and not super efficient via bus. He had many great tips for various activities around Santorini that fit what my interests were. It's experiences like this that make me prefer staying at a small boutique establishment like this over a big hotel. I can't recommend this hotel highly enough!!

Location perfetta, proprio di fronte alla spiaggia nera di Perissa e a due passi (ma proprio due!) da ristoranti, bar e negozi. La casa è davvero stupenda, arredata con gran gusto e molto ampia; avevamo una Camera da letto, una sala con angolo cottura dotato di tutto quanto necessario, un bagno molto ampio, un soppalco con altri letti e una veranda con tavolo e sdraio dove abbiamo trascorso bellissime serate. La casa è dotata di ogni comfort, tra l'altro ferro da stiro e phon di qualità professionale! La pulizia è incredibile, complimenti. I proprietari pieni di attenzioni e davvero simpatici. La nostra vacanza a Santorini è stata perfetta grazie alla scelta di Sunhaus per il nostro soggiorno. Bravissimi Akis e Irini, 10 e lode!

Abbiamo soggiornato nell'appartamento fronte mare (e lo è veramente); posizione e vista stupende, interni molto curati, pulizia attenta e precisa, cucina con frigo, lavabo, piastre cottura, macchina del caffè con cialde a disposizione, moka. Tostapane reperito con estrema rapidità non appena richiesto. Esterni che consentono una favolosa colazione vista mare la mattina ed un bicchiere di vino in tranquillità la sera ascoltando il mare. Akis ed Irini, senza dimenticare il piccolo Nicola :-), sono dei padroni di casa molto gentili ed attenti a qualsiasi esigenza e richiesta (informazioni, transfer, notizie sull'isola molto interessanti). Da consigliare assolutamente! Un caro saluto

Just back from a lovely stay at Sunhaus. It's right facing Perissa Beach, central to all the bars and restaurants and next door to the ice cream parlour, delicious but not good for the waistline! Irini is the easiest person to deal with when booking and when you arrive you will be looked after superbly by her hubby Akis. There is a studio apartment on the front and two slightly larger apartments at the rear. The apartments are typically appointed, kept spotlessly clean, towels and bedding changed regularly, decent WiFi, aircon and a great shower. .. perfect! Akis's friend came to stay for the weekend and insisted on cooking lunch for us, how nice is that? It was delicious as well. You may want to consider taking some Iron Maiden hits along with you, trust me, you'll have a friend for life!!

We stayed in the front apartment opposite the beach. Akis was there to greet us and let us check in when we arrived which was earlier than the stated time. He was great and made our stay by sharing a drink with us at the end of our day and making recommendations of what to see and where to eat. The apartment was clean and comfortable and serviced every day which was a bonus. We were able to walk to the bus, restaurants and of course the beach, what more could you want. We would highly recommend Sunhaus and wish Irini and Akis all the best.

Η Σαντορίνη αποτελούσε για μένα ένα διάσημο τουριστικό προορισμό μέχρι που γνώρισα στην Περίσσα το Sunhaus με τους εξαιρετικούς, υπέροχους και ευγενέστατους ιδιοκτήτες του Ειρήνη και Άκη. Αυτό που χαρακτηρίζει τους ιδιοκτήτες του Sunhaus είναι η θεαματική φιλοξενία, η αγάπη, το ενδιαφέρον και η εξυπηρέτηση τους σε συνδυασμό με τις χαμηλές τιμές για την ποιότητα των προσφερομένων. Η απολαυστική ησυχία και ηρεμία στα εξαιρετικά από κάθε απόψη δωμάτια διαμονής, σε ταξιδεύουν σε ατελείωτες στιγμές χαλάρωσης και αναζοωγόνησης ατενίζοντας το απέραντο γαλάζιο μόλις 30 μέτρα από την πόρτα σου. Θλίψη σε καταλαμβάνει όταν έρχεται η στιγμή να αποχωριστείς αυτό τον παραθαλάσσιο παράδεισο με τους αγγελικούς οικοδεσπότες του Ειρήνη και Άκη, που πρέπει να τονίσω ιδιαίτερα ότι αποτελούν την επιτομή της φιλοξενίας σε βαθμό που ο ξένιος Δίας θα μπορούσε να τους δώσει τον θρόνο του. Μπράβο παιδιά... πάντα άξιοι, υγιείς και χαρούμενοι για να μας χαρίζεται το πραγματικό νόημα της ζωής!!!

Sunhaus is set in a beautiful location, just across the beach road and the famous black beach of Perissa. Akis and Irini are super host and accommodated our every need. The house is clean, well equipped and has all the needed amenities, and is just behind the main house, which also has accommodations, and is perfectly located with many restaurants, bars and coffee shops lining the beach road. If you're looking for a great place, at reasonable pricing and perfect host, look no further.

We spent a fantastic week in Perissa in Akis and Irini’s house, two wonderful people ! Don’t hesitate to follow their advices on available good deals and points of interest In Santorini. The house is 60 meters from the beach. it’s new, clean with comfortable bedding. Thank you Irina and Akis for your hospitality, it was so pleasant and interesting talking with you about your beautiful country and your lovely Santorini ! We will recommend your sunhaus to everyone around us !
