Arismari Villa is a gem - hidden a 7-minute walk, up or down, below the hassle of never-sleeping Oia.
On the outside - it looks like it is part of a small complex called Oia Sunset Villas; you have all the advantages of two amazing swiming pools, a landscape part of a dream, with round-roofed pure white villas covered in bouganvileas and oleanders, sunset views one would remember for the cold winter evenings, a small church on the background of deep blue water...
Avgi's house is perfect for a quiet evening on the front terrace, admiring the sun going down, or a friendly meal on the back terrace, also overlooking the blue waters on the side, among trees, flowers and other white villas. The hammock in front invites you to take a book and enjoy the sweet rosemary scent of the Arismari (I guess, Greek for rosemary) bushes... all peaceful and calm.
If you prefer the vivid atmosphere of Oia, you are at most 10 minutes apart.
As for the house itself, it has a nice living area with an open-space small kitchen, but one can find everything needed for the usual holiday simple meal, including a Nespresso coffee machine. Water is drinkable. Super clean towels, bed linen, toiletries. Bedroom with a nice wooden bed, windows with protection for insects so you can keep open to get the cool night air (air conditioning is available in both rooms and works very well, too). Easy stay for 4 people, sofa bed in living room both large enough and comfortable to sleep on.
A small incident with the emergency light which kept being lit during our first night there was solved in no time, even though we discovered the problem around 11pm, once we switched off other lights. Avgi was super responsive and doing her best to solve it. Amazing and really helpful young men at the reception/bar, super easy check-in and out.
Cherry on the cake, definitely go for the icecream at Lolita's Gelaterie. Avgi will share the details I will be no spoiler here... but, for what I would advise, go there early so you have the chance to return before your visit ends ;))
All in all, I love being out on vacations, have traveled a lot during the pandemic too, still Avgi's place is one I would definitely return, eyes closed!! Don't hesitate... just go for it ;)
