My family of 4 stayed here for 4 nights and it was spacious and wonderful. Perfect location just about 16 steps down from the very crowded walkway. There are occasional tourists walking bye to take gorgeous sea view pics. That did not bother us at all. Beautifully decorated, 3 AC units in working order, and the kitchenette was just what you needed to have coffee, yogurts and snacks etc. We had no plans of ever cooking. We hung out on the patio mornings and late afternoons when we could as it was too hot during the middle of the day. If you stay in OIA you are well aware that it is the hot spot for tourists in the evenings for sunset and need to be extra patient when walking around. Even with the smaller amount of tourists and much less cruise ships entering Santorini, OIA is still crowded. The shops and restaurants are wonderful. You need to have reservations for dinner or you will have long wait times! Head down the path of stairs that take you to Ammoudi Bay and go eat at the seafood restaurants. Watch out for the donkey poop. You cant wear heels in Santorini all the pathways are uneven and stairs can be steep.
Right next to us was a small shop where a wonderful lady makes leather goods! Go support her if you can! She was so nice and helpful.
We also had Maria hire us transport from the ferry! They were great. And George who meet us at drop off and carried our carry on luggage thru the crowds and down/up the stairs is a true gem. There is no way you could do it without knowing exactly where to go. Thank you George!
Thanks Harris, Maria and George for making our trip to Santorini smooth and perfect!
We left OIA and headed to Milos. Another amazing island. Known for it beaches and food! Highly recommend.
