Wow! Evi's place is remarkable. The view's from the unit are spectacular. I thought the pictures were great, but it is even more beautiful in person. The villa is in the heart of Oia, yet there is the feeling of being totally secluded. There are walls of natural stone on either side, making the unit very private. There is a small restaurant next door (you cannot see it from the decks) that plays soft jazz from 4:30 - 11:30. In my opinion it added to the ambiance.
Evi is a perfect host. She thought of everything to make our experience in Oia wonderful. She had a driver waiting for us at the ferry dock to bring us to Oia. When we arrived the unit was stocked with some snacks, water, tea, etc. Everything we needed to be able to relax after the trip without having to immediately run out for supplies. Whew! Evi explained everything thoroughly and made great recommendations on the best things to do with our time on Santorini. She was always available for any questions via a cell phone that she provided.
One recommendation was to take a ride on the Margarita catamaran. I was a little reluctant but, based on another review, decided to try the 4 hour tour. It was amazing. We had hiked to Fira the day before which offered stunning views of the Caldera from above (highly recommend it if you are in good shape). The boat trip flipped those views and the perspective was striking. Just beautiful. We also were able to swim in the sea and the hot springs. Lunch on the boat was one of the best we had our entire trip.
I would highly recommend this unit, it exceeded all of my expectations!!!
