Spent a week in the Secret Garden and it was paradise! It is a lovely house with the most insanely beautiful and private garden in the heart of Oia. The outside space is what makes this house so unique and special - multiple lounging/dining areas, surrounded by trees and flowers with your own pool and just a short walk from the main pedestrian street of Oia. The location could not be more perfect, right in the centre of everything but away from the crowds and so peaceful and quiet. I travelled with my mother and we felt very safe at all times. Mailinda (who manages the property) was so helpful in organising our check in and out and arranging transfers to and from the airport. She provided us with a map of the area and some great recommendations of places to eat. She was very responsive to message and really lovely to deal with. A special mention to Michael, who met us late at night when we arrived (and when we left) to carry our luggage to the house and who cleaned the yard and pool every day, and to Jessica, who cleaned the house (which is spotless!!) and provided us with new pool and bath towels daily. Mailinda, Michael and Jessica were all so friendly and lovely and we appreciated all that they did to make our stay extra special. A nice touch was the milk, juice, eggs, fresh fruit, bread, pastries, teas and coffee provided - we were starving when we arrived at night so it was much appreciated! Bottom line - look no further if you are visiting Oia - book this place if you can!
