We had a wonderful stay at Maria's in July! The villa is extremely central in Fira, you simply take a staircase path down from the main street and you're there. The villa was beautiful and the view from the front terrace, absolutely gorgeous! It's a long, narrow villa with a bedroom at the back and another bedroom up in the loft. Be ready for a steep ladder climb to the loft.
Our only complaint we had during our stay was the fact that there is only one bathroom and it's through the downstairs bedroom. Therefore, everyone has to walk through the one bedroom to access the bathroom which isn't ideal for two couples travelling together.
We LOVED the terrace out front, it's shared but the other guests never used it so we had it to ourselves. IT's definitely the best spot to view the sunset! Maria gave us a bottle of wine to enjoy on the terrace as well as directed us to a cheap supermarket where we picked up more drinks and snacks. Maria gave us lots of local tips and all of her suggestions were great. Lots of little touches in the villa (ie. slippers, toiletries, maps) were much appreciated. A great spot for a Fira holiday!
