We met with Andrea upon arrival. The house is bigger than expected and there are lots of wonderful personal touches - including two places outside to drink coffee or ouzo and relax.
Andrea had a binder of information for anything you could possibly want to see or do in Santorini - including lots of food recommendations. Her love for the island was very clear and contagious. She gave us a gift upon arrival and upon departure!
Messaria is quaint and hasn’t been overrun with tourists quite yet - which was a lovely bonus for us. Honestly, the best food we had from all over the island was walking distance from Andrea’s place.
Definitely get a car or ATV, but don’t sweat about where to get it because that information is in the binder, too! I can emphasize how pleased we are with our stay. We only wish it had been longer!
