The Boatbuilders House was the perfect home for our week in Oia. The house itself is beautiful and full of character - from the shady courtyard to the roof terrace with view to the sea and sunset across stunning old buildings. The house has loads of characterful features and history, having original been the host’s family home. It feels very loved and relaxed, yet with all the amenities you need, and nice touches (Manolis’s mum brought us some of the sweetest cherry tomatoes I have ever tasted, and Manolis booked our airport transfers and met us off the taxi when we arrived). The house is also in the perfect location - just a stone’s throw from the main centre (and on the same lane as three really good restaurants) yet tucked away from the busy streets. It was the perfect base for us to explore Oia and Santorini.
