Claudio is the most thoughtful Airbnb host I've encountered so far.

He picked us up from the airport, prepared a sumptuous breakfast every morning, and even helped me do my laundry! He also lent us a hair dryer after ours broke down. He stayed in the main house, and promptly came whenever we needed him.

His house is in the less-touristy part of Santorini, which was exactly how we wanted it to be. It looks exactly like the pictures, full of Claudio’s own art and design. Akrotiri is fascinating in its own way, especially for those who are interested to know about the origins and ancient culture of this unique island. The sights that are close by are the old town of Megalochori, the archaeological site of Akrotiri and Red Beach. The Santorini sunset is only across the road!

But the one I will miss the most is his dog, Gomo, whose friendly face greeted me every morning. Thanks for a wonderful Santorini holiday, Claudio!
