Never in my wildest dreams had I ever imagined that I could (and would) experience the full beauty of Oia in my lifetime - however Laskarina provided me that and more through her Old bakery cave house- for which I will remain eternally grateful. This experience was transporting due to all of the thoughtfulness and attention to detail Laskarina and her husband have created. I will revisit Oia , this home and this time frequently in my mind for years to come. Here are some of the reasons why: Laskarina and her husband Jon have created something more than a place to stay-the old bakery cave is a home in every sense of the word. They both take such care in ensuring your needs are met-unobtrusively and yet, responsively as well. This was my first trip to Greece (and Santornini) and I had no idea what to expect. She was very quick to answer any questions ahead of my arrival, made arrangements for my arrival and departure; offered to make any tour arrangements as well as providing a full list of suggestions on how I could explore and experience Santorini as she would. Anna (who stops by each day to keep the homes tidy) is so sweet, attentive and clearly takes so much pride in ensuring these homes are well maintained. We had the chance to meet John, Laskarina's husband and we looked forward to seeing him each day as he checked on things as well. I felt extremely taken care of. The location over the caldera truly is unmatched. We were in Oia during a full moon and we made every chance to awake early to see the sunrise with a coffee on the terrace and the quietude of the moment. We spent most mornings walking around Oia early morning when the streets were quiet and then had lunch in one of the many exceptional restaurants that Laskarina recommended. All are within walking distance with two cafes right outside the entrance to the house that also provide takeaway. We did just that every night having dinner on the bakery cave terrace after watching the sunset from the house. My friend and I both have art backgrounds and we found it mesmerizing to see the colors of the sky change as well as the blue hour after sunset. You will not be disappointed in the perch you have in seeing this unfold from the terrace. The photos of the home are 100% accurate - this home is so truly and thoughtfully curated. From the subtle pink of the deck chair paint to the placement on certain items to afford you privacy in parts of the house-exceptional. The days were very warm when we were there and an air conditioner is provided however, we requested a fan and they provided it right away-which was absolutely perfect! Everything is at your fingertips here-little markets to pick up feta, honey and wine; all the little shops and places to take quiet long walks...
