The villa is in a convenient location with a fantastic view of the caldera. Inside it appears to be newly remodeled, with everything in excellent condition, including the spa tub, small bathroom and kitchenette. The small balcony has a table and seating for two, and gets sun most of the day...it's perfect for morning coffee/breakfast. Each day someone cleaned up while we were out, re-stocked the coffee maker, and provided clean towels (maybe linens too?).

The villa is an easy 20 minute walk to the end of Oia town (where you can watch the sunset). There's a small grocery store less than 100m away and several cafes and restaurants nearby in the town.

Vanessa greeted us personally, had a friendly White Pearl staff member help us with our bags, and gave us a great introduction to Oia and the rest of the island. She offered to arrange transportation for us to/from the airport, which was helpful. And was available by phone and email every time we needed her.
