Oia has (sadly) become so SO overly touristed and although its beauty is still stunning, moving through the village felt like going to a crowded mall with shops, shops, shops and expensive, rich hotels. It is far from the quiet place I visited almost 30 years ago and that was disappointing. Thank goodness for Manolis’ family home. It was a charming respite or Greek originality. We loved the architecture and the history of it and how it felt so much like a home because it is just that. We loved the little garden area and upstairs balcony. Manolis was wonderful and helpful and brought us eggs from his chickens and a cucumber from his garden. If you want to stay in a place that is not one of those swanky, new modern corporate places, stay here. If I were to ever come back this would be the only place I would want to stay. It’s a gem. Thank you so much!
