Wow - wonderful experience. Oia is definitely the best place on the island - much better than staying in Thira. Plus, the flat is at the very edge of the village, so it is super-quiet at night and you can even sleep with the windows open to hear the waves and see the ships go by. Also, you HAVE to hang out at the near pool bar. The host will show you where it is. You just buy a drink or a salad and can use a deck chair the whole day. As for the restaurants, they can be very expensive, so go and find some in second row and prices are immediately half. The flat itself is wonderful and cosy and you can make fantastic photo shootings around it at sunset. I was not aware there is even a white wooden deck stretching above the entrance, so you can lay down there for a sundowner or photo shoot. Hundreds of people watch the sunset every evening in Oia and YOU will have your very private spot to view it. Everyone will envy you for this great spot and location. I just don't have no words how magical this place is!!
