John's house in Oia has an unbeatable view. Perfect for taking photos, watching the sunsets, and viewing the unique architecture which is built into the cliffs.
The house itself is cozy and very, very nice. You will feel right at home.
There are many steps down to reach the house, so you'll also get plenty of exercise going to and from the restaurants and shops ;) The shops of Oia are filled with handcrafted ceramics, textiles, paintings, and jewelry. We were told there is a beach nearby, but we did not visit this one.
John is a perfect host, very helpful and responsive. We also ended up taking a scuba diving course with him, which I would highly recommend.
