The apartment is excellent! Sooo clean and cleaned every day. Amazing. The staff are all super-friendly and helpful. We loved staying out of the main towns. Too many tourists in Oia and Fira. But it's only a short bus ride to anywhere, and cheap!!! We took the bus everywhere. They run so frequently it was excellent. It's only a few minutes walk to the bus stop that takes you to Fira which is the main bus hub. From there you can go anywhere. Tip - The village is Messaria. Suggest you go to the main hub in Fira and take a photo of the sign that tells you the bus routes and which ones stop in Messaria. It's more accurate than the ones at the individual bus stops.
You will love staying here. We did.
