Our trip started off with a bang when our already late arrival turned into our plane arriving after midnight. Nicoletta had already coordinated our transfer to Ammoundi Bay and was happily waiting for us at 1:30 in the morning to ride with Captain Alex to the house. The service at this location is incredible. They were helpful throughout our trip and made sure everything was in order until the very end.
It is a bit of a hike up to Oia but even those only moderately in shape can accomplish it with breaks to enjoy the view. Staying in Oia would have been beautiful but this place allows you the best of both worlds. The water of Armeni Bay is beautiful and you can use the kayaks to get out of the harbor area a bit and enjoy the sea all to yourself. Then you can walk up to Oia for the sunset, dinner, shopping, etc.
My only regret with this place is not having spent more time there. Highly recommended.
