The location is great, very close to the center but quietly, far away from rush. Everything needed is very close = near 2 markets, bus station, a few steps to the center and there are restaurants and cafes everywhere. We had several accommodations and were in several places during our stay in Santorini but I liked Fira the most. Although there are many tourists, I enjoyed there the local atmosphere. It was difficult to say good bye Santorini and Galatia Villas also. People of Galatia were amazing. Someone has always been at the reception, always helped, cleaning every day perfect. Through Galatia, we also had a volcano trip for the same price as in the boat trip company directly, that was great. If you stay in Fira, with Galatia Villas you will be satisfied. They gave us a nice little gift when we were leaving. Thank you for everything. :) Certainly go to taste gyros in Yogi Gyro and coffee in Coffe Lab. Enjoy Santorini, enjoy Fira. :)
