Beautiful area with great views away from the crowds and touristy areas. You will definitely need a car to travel but it’s not a long drive to either side of the island. There is also a bus stop nearby that takes you to Fira and Oia. We were able to visit both sides of Santorini. There are 2 restaurants less than 5 minute walk with great food. The only problem we had was not having a washer & it was pricy to get our clothes cleaned. Otherwise, we loved our stay here + free breakfast to our door every morning. Christina was very helpful and kind to us and made sure we had everything we needed.
