Welcome to Bella Cisterna. In the very heart of historic Kampos on Chios island, Bella Cisterna estate, dating from the Genoese rule (1366-1566), offers guests a high standard of accommodation in style, in a verdant orchard of unique natural beauty which gives off the fresh aroma of citrus trees. It’s the ideal location for those who seek privacy and wish to enjoy the tranquility.

A major attraction is the 19th century masterpiece; a white marble cistern – elevated walkway, unique of its kind. An amazing aqueduct that stores about 500 tons of water, the cistern crosses the estate from north to south. It measures 140m in length and is 3m wide and 2m high, offering a very impressive walk above a grove of citrus and fruit trees.
Bella Cisterna offers rooms as well as studios equipped with a kitchen. They all have a spacious terrace. Great care has been given to the romantic decoration, inspired by the soft shades of the natural environment combined with all the modern comforts and amenities. Enjoy the peace, intimacy, and warm family hospitality (including a home-made buffet breakfast) in a dreamy setting where the long private walkway leads to secluded corners, beautiful gardens filled with fruit trees, spacious courtyards, childrens’ playground, giant outdoor chess, mini-football, ping-pong and more.

The location of Bella Cisterna is the ideal starting point for a cycle trip to explore the amazing area of Kampos as well as the surrounding traditional kampos villages (Thymiana. Neohori), the sandy beaches (Karfas, Megas Limionas) in short distance and the lively city of Chios with its museums. Kampos formed during the Genoese rule in the 14th century combines in harmony the unique natural landscape with the distinctive architectural features of the luxurious Genoese mansions of that era, keeping a sense of times gone by.
Τhe nature loving and cultural cycling routes of Kampos and its surroundings are ideal for every biker regardless his/her level. Professional and experienced mountain bikers can explore more distant cycling routes and catch breathtaking views of the medieval mastic villages and the famous beaches of the South East of Chios.
We encourage our visitors to discover the wonderful world of hiking and biking. Our staff will provide you with all the information needed and help you plan your activities. We aspire to offer you a memorable holiday experience. It is a great pleasure for us to welcome you at Bella Cisterna.
