While there are many places you can stay during a vacation on Santorini........I am confident that Maria's would be hard to surpass in terms of location and value.
The pictures are exactly what you see standing on your private veranda watching the sun set off to your right. There are many others watching the sunset from stairwells and walkways nearby.......but having the chance to relax and take in the beautiful vistas throughout the day from the house's vantage point is an incredible opportunity......that one will remember long after you return to your homeland.
From the moment Maria arranged our minivan taxi from the airport for our family party of 7 adults(she set up an extra cot) ......to the time she arranged for a ride to the ferry(40 minutes) we were pampered and showered with attention. That initial walk from the taxi dropoff seems a daunting exercise through a maze of stairwells that you never think you'll remember(but you quickly get used to finding your way) and it was nice that Maria's assistants helped with the luggage(no donkeys required) She also arranged for a boat trip to the Volcano and Hot springs and when the Ferry Union called a 24 hour strike on the day we were to leave for Naxos........she made sure our needs were met......much to our relief!
There are many coffee shops, gift shops and restaurants within walking distance of the cave house and if you want to see how good of shape you're in.......you can walk down to the water's edge below. Sorry.....no funicular for coming back up!
What a great place to take in the sights!
