Luxury Hydra Holiday Rental Homes
Hydra Homesteads is a small estate of three beautifully renovated homes set on a gentle hill overlooking Kamini Harbour about a two minute walk from Castello Beach and restaurant. It offers tranquility, charm, luxurious comfort and flexibility for a couple or for up to fourteen people to share.
Set in rural, peaceful surroundings where you can enjoy stunning village and sea views whether you're a sunrise or sunset fan but only a gentle stroll from Kamini harbour or beach
With a capacity to accommodate up to fourteen people, this estate is perfect for a group getaway or a family retreat. For those seeking a perfect blend of seclusion and togetherness, our villa complex offers an inviting place where the beauty of tradition meets the convenience of modern living, all the while enjoying breathtaking views of the sea.
Hydra Homesteads are down low, close to the sea, making it easy to come and go 24 hours a day, which is a Hydra must. Around the picturesque Kamini harbour a gentle 5 minute stroll from the homestead, you'll find Theo at the Pirofani, Christina's Taverna, and heading out of the harbour, there's the balcony restaurant, Kodylenia, for gorgeous sunset dining. Heading west from the homestead, the beach at Kamini is only a 3 minute stroll and at the back of the beach is the popular Castello Bar and Restaurant.
Residences
Homestead Residence
Two holiday houses either side of a shared top terrace, offering spacious luxury accommodation for up to ten guests. Trina provides two floors with two double bedrooms and a separate ground floor double bedroom apartment. Nicaela has two floors with two double bedrooms. Please note that because Trina and Nicaela share the outside space and access, they are not available separately.
Dino Residence
This holiday home is the lower of the three properties and has its own terrace and entrance. This house has two floors with a master suite on the top floor that enjoys a sea-facing balcony and steps to a large courtyard overlooking the garden. Dino can accommodates two guests plus another couple on a deluxe sofa bed in the living room on the ground floor if desired.
Hydra Homestead & Dino Residence Combined
And for larger groups, perhaps wedding parties or for yoga or art retreats, the entire homestead can be booked for up to 12-14 guests.
For couples who are coming to Hydra to get married, or indeed for any celebration, Hydra Homesteads is ideal to recommend for family and guests attending your event. Its closeness to the popular wedding party locations of Castello and Kodylenia, and with easy paths and steps to negotiate means your guests will arrive looking and feeling as good as they did when they set out.
As well as the spacious interiors, Hydra Homesteads also has lots of big terraces, courtyards and balconies so there's plenty of room to spread out or come together. As a wedding guest house it's got it all if you want to arrange a bit of guest hospitlity. Speak to Katerina to make arrangements if you want to organise a get-to-gether!

While all the arrangements are included in the price of your rental booking at Hydra Homesteads, you will need to pay the direct cost for your shopping and activities. Katerina will negotiate the best possible price for you though.
