Megachori is a delightful village to stay in and the cave house is comfortable, very clean and has been tastefully and attractively modernised. The pool in the courtyard is refreshing to use after a day out sightseeing and the awning provides essential shade over the table and seating area. The house is very well placed in the village.
Up the hill it is a short walk to the family bakery where we bought all that we needed for our breakfasts in the cave house. From outside the bakery buses run every 30 minutes to Fira and to Akrotiri throughout the day but maybe not into the evenings. Buses also run from outside the bakery to Perissa and elsewhere.
Down the hill in it is a short walk to the village square where there are several tavernas and a small shop.
We had 3 nights and 2 full days to explore the island and left wishing we had at least 1 more night and full day in the cave house.
