This was our first visit to Santorini and we completely fell in love with Oia. It is a place of beauty from sunrise to sunset and every second in between. No photos could ever do the place justice and we would recommend it to everyone to go and experience it...the sunshine, the food, the extremely friendly and welcoming people!
We had the privilege of staying in the BEST accommodation...perfect location, perfect facilities and the most amazing host, Konstantinos!
Konstantinos was very professional and quick to respond from the point of making the booking up to end of our stay.
He went out of his way to make this special trip even more special.
On arrival in Santorini we had a taxi waiting for us at the airport. Konstantinos and his friendly helper met as in Oia and carried our heavy luggage to our cave loft.
We were overwhelmed by what awaited us. Such a beautiful traditional cave loft with the most amazing viewing deck and our own private hot tub, champagne on ice and flowers too.
We spent most of our 8 days enjoying the sunshine at the apartment...relaxing!
Some of the highlights to summarise and recommend:
- Breakfast from Vitrin (at 30% discount), delivered in the morning or at the lovely restaurant.
- Boat trip with Santorini yachting club. We did the morning session, 9:00-14:30. Amazing! Konstantinos arranged it all.
- Mousaka at Skala.
- Dinner at King Neptune, with a table booked for 19:45 in time to enjoy the beautiful sunset...we went back 3 times! Absolutely loved the seafood spaghetti.
- Of you can book a front row table at Kastro for dinner around 19:45, beautiful view of the sunset.
- Lunch at Terpsi n Oia...nice and cool on the upper deck.
- Walking down and back up to Armeni and Amoudi port/bay. Just be aware of the many 100 steps...but, you can also take a donkey ride back up. Definitely recommend this for the walk back from Armeni.
- Getting up early to enjoy the sunrise and take pictures from the castle ruins.
- Shopping at the shop downstairs...entrance to the apartment is via the shop...very quirky and unique! Bonus 20% discount!
Konstantinos, we can not thank you and your helpers enough for making this holiday extremely special. We will most definitely be back to stay in Oia and more importantly at Alafouzou Cave Loft. For us there will be no other place more perfect!
