The view from the patio was excellent and the communication throughout was also great. It is spacious throughout and provides lots of room for a family of 4. We really enjoyed our stay in Santorini. However, if you are looking for a place that provides reasonably comfortable beds, a decent bathroom, toiletries, and other basic amenities - this is not the place for you. It could use some updating for sure especially the bathroom. I don't feel that Maria's place offers good value considering the price that you pay.
