Luxury Villa Rental in Andros, Greece
Androsthea is an exclusive luxury villa rental on the island of Andros in the Cyclades, Greece. Built into the natural hillside above the sheltered bay of Kypri, the property merges contemporary architectural design with the raw beauty of Cycladic stone construction. Spanning over 350 square metres of interior living space and surrounded by expansive terraces, Androsthea accommodates up to 16 guests across five generously proportioned en-suite bedrooms, making it one of the most distinguished private holiday villas available on Andros.
The villa's design draws on the geological character of Andros itself. Local schist stone, used for centuries in the island's dry-stone walls and traditional settlements, forms the structural backbone of the building. Inside, polished concrete floors, floor-to-ceiling glazing, and a restrained material palette of timber, linen, and natural stone create an atmosphere of understated refinement. Every room opens to views of the Aegean Sea, the surrounding olive groves, or the terraced garden that descends toward the coast.
Private Infinity Pool & Outdoor Living
The centrepiece of the outdoor experience is a heated infinity pool that appears to merge with the Aegean horizon. Surrounding the pool, stone-paved terraces offer multiple dining and lounging areas, a built-in barbecue, and shaded pergolas draped in bougainvillea. The outdoor spaces are designed for long Mediterranean evenings and effortless entertaining.
Concierge & Bespoke Services
A dedicated concierge team arranges every detail of your stay: private chef dinners featuring Andriot cuisine, yacht charters to neighbouring islands, guided hiking along the island's 300-kilometre trail network, car and boat rentals, airport transfers from Athens, and spa treatments in the privacy of the villa.

The Destination
Why Andros, Greece?
The second-largest island in the Cyclades and the greenest, Andros is a place of extraordinary natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and genuine Greek hospitality. Just two hours by ferry from Athens, it remains refreshingly unspoiled compared to its more famous neighbours, offering discerning travellers an authentic Cycladic experience without the crowds.
Hiking & Nature
Over 300 km of marked trails through gorges, springs, and medieval villages. Andros is widely regarded as the finest hiking destination in the Cyclades.
Pristine Beaches
From the golden sands of Kypri and Agios Petros to the wild beauty of Achla and Vitali, the island offers beaches for every preference.
Culture & Museums
The Goulandris Museum of Contemporary Art, the Archaeological Museum, and the Cyclades Olive Museum bring world-class culture to a Cycladic setting.
Gastronomy
Local cheeses, fourovetsia pasta, citrus-infused sweets, and fresh seafood define an Andriot table. The island's natural springs nourish a culinary tradition unlike any other in the Cyclades.
Island Hopping
Just two hours from Rafina port near Athens, Andros is the gateway to Tinos, Mykonos, and the wider Cycladic archipelago by regular ferry connections.
Authentic Character
Unlike its more touristic neighbours, Andros preserves a quieter, more authentic Greek island identity. Neoclassical mansions, working farms, and family-run tavernas define daily life.
Andros has long been the preferred retreat of Athenian families and seasoned travellers who value substance over spectacle. The island's landscape is defined by terraced hillsides, ancient stone bridges, natural springs, and a coastline that alternates between sheltered sandy bays and dramatic rocky headlands. Villages such as Chora, Batsi, and Korthi preserve their traditional architecture and unhurried pace of life, while a growing number of contemporary restaurants and artisan producers reflect the island's quiet renaissance.
For guests staying at Androsthea, Andros offers a rare combination: the seclusion and natural beauty of a lesser-known island with the cultural depth and infrastructure of a well-established destination. Whether your interests lie in hiking the Menites trail to Byzantine monasteries, sailing to the uninhabited islets off the coast, or simply spending long afternoons on the villa's terrace watching the light change over the Aegean, Andros rewards those who take the time to explore it.
Location
Kypri Bay — The Heart of Western Andros
Androsthea occupies a privileged position on the hillside above Kypri, a sheltered bay on the western coast of Andros renowned for its calm, crystal-clear waters and golden sand. Kypri beach is considered one of the most wind-protected anchorages in the Cyclades, making it a favourite among sailors and families alike. The bay faces west, offering spectacular sunsets over the open Aegean.
The villa sits between the port of Gavrion (10 minutes by car) and the lively village of Batsi (5 minutes), placing guests within easy reach of restaurants, shops, and boat excursions while maintaining complete privacy. The ferry from Rafina, the nearest mainland port to Athens International Airport, arrives at Gavrion in approximately two hours, making Andros one of the most accessible islands in the Cyclades for international visitors.
Surrounding the villa, the landscape is a tapestry of olive groves, aromatic herbs, and dry-stone terraces that have shaped the Andriot countryside for centuries. Walking paths connect Kypri to neighbouring beaches and the hillside chapel of Agios Nikolaos, while the island's extensive trail network opens up a world of gorges, waterfalls, and medieval tower houses within a short drive.
