I'm really torn writing this review. Opuntia House was incredible (and I mean incredible - my friends and I said several times Is this real? Are we really HERE?). But if I write a really great and totally honest review will that mean that it will be booked all the time and I'll never be able to come back?

Opuntia House is a dream. The view alone is worth staying for but the house is also very special - beautifully appointed, modern, comfortable. The location is unparalleled. Sitting on the veranda you can see tourists lining up to take photos of what is essentially your front room! But because of the design and restrictions on the paths to get to the house, you are totally secluded in this exclusive haven. I stayed with 3 other girls and there was plenty of room for all of us.

Christos was incredibly helpful - from meeting and greeting to carrying our bags, to suggesting activities (do the boat ride!), to recommendations on local shops/restaurants and booking the all important taxis to the airport. He is at once laid back and responsive. Couldn't have asked for better.

Staying with Opuntia House was the highlight of our 10 days in Greece. I highly recommend it - as long as there is still availability for me to come back! :)
