We spent 12 days on Santorini, and stayed at the Thirasia villa the entire time. When finding a place to stay we wanted: a beautiful view, a swimming pool, and to be centrally located on the island. The villa filled all these requirements perfectly. My husband and I, and our two college age children stayed at the villa. The villa has a great layout, two levels; the two bedrooms are upstairs and both have doors to the balcony, which has a table and four chairs. The downstairs is perfect - full kitchen, dining table with six chairs, comfortable family room with two couches that can also be used as single beds, and a flatscreen tv, the wifi worked well too. There are also two full bathrooms. Outside on the veranda, there are two chairs and a table, and a private hot tub - the view from the veranda, the upstairs balcony and the windows in each room is truly spectacular. It's so nice to sit outside at night and watch the sunset. The pool onsite is very nice, with an incredible view. We were glad to have rented a car, we explored the entire island; the villa is just outside Pyrgos, but the walk down to town is a narrow street. Pyrgos has excellent restaurants! George checked us in and provided us with a map of the island and recommendations of restaurants all around the island. George and the onsite staff were so kind and accommodating, we highly recommend spending your visit to Santorini in their villas.
