Overall we had a lovely stay in Room C, downstairs on the right.
We liked really much:
- the cave design and display
- the bed
- the air conditioning
- the proximity of good for value/cheap restaurants (not easy to find close to Oia). We would recommend especially ‘Meze Meze’ and ‘Lefkes’. Also, a mini market is closed by.
- the quietness of the area
What we disliked a little bit :
- the difficulty to find the place while our host did her best to make it clear,
- the bathroom and especially the shower is small (fortunately were are less that 1,80m tall) and quickly over wet after taking a shower
- there is no view
- the courtyard is really nice but small and shared with the other room. Expect sun til mid-afternoon.
- the difficulty to walk in with heavy luggage. It is going up on stoned path. Should you travel with your brand new Samsonite, insured its wheels :-)
- it is not deserved 100% by public transport. It depends on the kindness of the bus driver. The bus station is at least 800m away.
At the end, it was a nice experience.
The village named ‘Finikia’ is the perfect place to visit Oia : far from crowded streets and tourists restaurants. You would need a 20mins walk to join Oia center.
