The villa is at a very remoted place far away from Fira/Oia.
To Fira : 40 mins – 1 hours by Public Bus
To Oia : Another 30mins min from Fira
= Take 1.5hr - 3 hours daily for bus ride including waiting time
The bus is always quite busy, with people standing all the way in walkway, there are people can’t get on the bus (30mins frequency). The bus table and route are not clear/fixed, depending if you are catching normal or express bus. Heard some waited for 1 hr and 40 mins to red beach but gave up in the end. Some guest just take taxi to town (Euro40-50).
We had to walk 30 minutes back to hotel at 11 pm when missed the drop off point back from Fira. The bus route differs for express bus (which is new to us, and driver was not helpful). It does not feel safe for girls to walk at night as some road is without light and totally quiet. Heard some guest waited for bus for nearly 1hrs 40 mins to red beach but gave up in the end. Some guest just opt for taxi to town (Euro40-50).
Wifi not working in room throughout our stay.
Pro :
One way arrival transfer is provided (Paid Euro30 for 1 way to airport for 2 pax).
Early check in.
Breakfast is basic but tasty. Chill vibe.
Deep swimming pool.
10 minutes walk to black sands beach.
Many restaurant at the beach, please try Taverna O Perivolos.
Nice to do a run/walk to Perissa beach at before 7 am and watch sunrise.
Overall, this place is suitable for people who love chilling beach vibe and have spared decent amount of time in Santorini or have your own transportation. For people who 2-3 nights it would make sense to stay in Fira (Main bus terminal) to see all you need, then move here for 2 nights to enjoy the beach view.
