This is the very best place to book if you want to stay in Oia/Santorini. Everyone else stays up top, on the rim of the caldera ... but in july at least, the small winding paths are jam packed with fellow tourists ... very, very busy. At Nicolettas place, you are down below, at the waters edge. We had the windows open and loved the sea breeze coming in every night. There are half a dozen great seafood restaurants right there, all within 100 metres. We spent most of our time down there, away from the hustle and bustle ... swimming, eating, etc.
Also, on Christina's advice, we had her contact the owners of a secluded waters-edge cafe in the next bay ... and they come and collect you by boat ... at no charge. They offer great swimming, free kayaks, sun bathing chairs, etc ... a great place to spend an entire morning or an afternoon ... and the zorba-like owner is a special,character.
We also did the odd walk up the 300 odd steps to the top ... to experience rim-life and have one meal out ... but spent most of our time down below. Perfect four days. Thanks girls ... we LOVED your perfect space. We'll be back.
