Staying in Lefteris' apartment was such a treat - it has got to be one of the most charming homes I've ever stayed in! The place is even nicer in person than in the pictures - the bathroom is so spacious and you have a view of the sea from the front terrace. The house is immaculately clean, the bed linens and towels were fresh and perfect! There were very thoughtful personal touches - a basket with fruit and snacks (some of the cookies are homemade by Lefteris' mother), water and juice in the refrigerator, and even a sweet wine that Lefteris makes himself.
Finikia is about a 15-minute walk from Oia, and frankly, I found it much more enjoyable staying here as opposed to staying in Oia and battling the "sunset crowds" that descend on the town starting in the late afternoon. There are three restaurants (for varying budgets) near Lefteris' home that are practically a stone's throw away (I had dinner twice at Lefkes - food and service were amazing, and I got to see the famed sunset from their terrace, away from the touristy Oia crowds). I really enjoyed staying in Lefteris' home (I wish I could have stayed longer), and would love to stay again if I return to this beautiful island. Highly recommend it for anyone else!
Thanks again, Lefteris! =)
