The views of the Caldara and Oia from the porch were absolutely gorgeous just as described in the other reviews. And the home was centrally located in Oia so it was very easy access to shops and places to eat. We found the space was roomy enough to fit all 5 of us very comfortably. Yiannis was very welcoming: he met us at the bus, carried our bags to the house and made sure that any needs we had were taken care of.
From other reviews I had been expecting lots of tourists taking pictures around us, but I had thought this would mean people stopping by and snapping pictures as they walked by. What I had not expected was that there were a steady stream of professional photographers that set up shop on the walkway right outside our porch, and even on our roof. Mostly they were taking pictures of Chinese brides in full regalia, often accompanied by large, talkative family groups. The steady stream of these groups from 10 AM till dusk did detract from our enjoyment of the beautiful surroundings.
