I checked in with John because I knew I was going to arrive late from the airport from Croatia. He charges 15 euro to open up past reception hours which we needed. He checked us in around 2330 and stayed up to show us around the loft, give us rules of the villa, and offer us a map. The next morning we were offered tea and coffee as we sat and enjoyed the views of the caldera. I like the community feel of the place sharing the balconies as we socialize and talk to other guests and John as well as people watch. John was great to offer to be a point of contact for any bookings. So we ordered taxis from him and set up Wine tasting att Sigalas winery and the sunset boat tour. It's. A great location offering pretty good views and in the middle of Oia and a short walk to the north end of the island where the windmills are and the best sunset views. From John's place, the sunrise views are pretty sweet (if you dare to rise that early). I recommend this spot just be proactive in getting in touch with the hosts and all goes swimmingly! There were a few price discrepancies so I was sticker shocked when booking - make sure all is clear before confirming your booking.
