This Airbnb was a delightful, peaceful paradise. There was great communication with Lamprini before arriving, and she even arranged for a transport to pick us up from the ferry port. That would have been difficult to maneuver on our own. She then met us where the driver dropped us off, to help with luggage and lead us in on foot.
The property is even more beautiful than the photos show with impeccable gardens. We spent quite a bit of time sitting under the shade of an olive tree overlooking the ocean. We probably would have spent more time, but we arrived during the worst heat wave in Greece in 40 years.
Inside the space is beautifully decorated, and very spacious. The air conditioner works quickly and is powerful. There were lots of items provided for breakfast, including coffee, tea and juice. The thick “cave” walls made it very quiet inside. We had some issues with Wifi, but the hosts were quick to help us with that. Lamprini talked with us about her garden, and Giorgos gave us great suggestions on things to do in the area. We prefer peace and quiet when we travel, and we find Oia to be chaotic and busy, even though it is beautiful. But, Finikia is just as pretty, it is just smaller and not overrun with people. Just a few locals going about their day. We chose to spend a lot of time at this property just to recover from so many days of travel, and would pick up food from the nearby supermarket, in walking distance, and have beer and snacks in our adorable suite. Of all the places we stayed in Greece, this was our favorite room, and the best way to experience Santorini.
