About Chilled Villas
Our story, our team, and our commitment to exceptional villa experiences
Our Story
Chilled Villas was founded in 2015 by Alexandra Thompson, a passionate traveler with a background in luxury hospitality. After years of working with high-end hotels and resorts, Alexandra recognized a gap in the market for truly personalized villa experiences that combined the privacy and space of a private home with the service and amenities of a luxury hotel.
What began as a small collection of handpicked properties in Greece has grown into a curated portfolio of exceptional villas across the Mediterranean, each selected for its unique character, stunning location, and commitment to guest experience.
Our Mission
At Chilled Villas, our mission is to create unforgettable villa experiences that exceed our guests' expectations. We believe that a truly exceptional holiday is about more than just a beautiful property – it's about personalized service, authentic local experiences, and attention to every detail.
We're committed to sustainable tourism practices and supporting the local communities where our villas are located. By working with local suppliers, recommending family-owned restaurants, and promoting cultural experiences, we aim to ensure that tourism benefits the destinations we love.
What Sets Us Apart
Personally Vetted Properties
Every villa in our collection is personally visited and vetted by our team. We don't just look at the property itself – we assess the location, the views, the amenities, and even test the beds to ensure a good night's sleep.
Dedicated Concierge Service
Our concierge team is available from the moment you book until after you return home. From arranging airport transfers to booking private chefs, boat trips, or securing reservations at the best local restaurants – we take care of every detail.
Local Expertise
Our team has extensive knowledge of each destination in our portfolio. We can recommend the best beaches, hidden coves, authentic tavernas, and cultural experiences that you won't find in guidebooks.
"We believe that the most memorable holidays are those where you feel truly at home in your surroundings, yet pampered with exceptional service. That's the experience we strive to create with every Chilled Villas booking."
