Gasparis and his family are all very nice and helpful. They are so welcoming and always willing to help with directions and even dropped us off to the bus stop a few times. The mini apt are a block away from black beach and has many restaurants near by and you can walk all the way down to Persia beach if you like. Taking The bus was the best way to explore the island they come every hour. Would recommend to anyone like looking for a place near beaches in Santorini.
