When I booked this room and saw the photo of the view, I thought perhaps this place is far inland and the ocean is far in the distance. I arrived at night, so when I awoke in the morning and saw the ocean and hills just below me, I was so happy. The place is right in the cliffs of Santorini, and the view is magnificent. The room is small, quiet, very clean and comfortable for one or two guests. The village is close walking distance and busy with tourists, but no one is walking near the room. I emailed Maria from home with questions (I was a bit apprehensive about traveling alone) and she not only answered, but also arranged every outing for me. I highly recommend the catamaran cruise and the wine tour! I did not need to rent a car for this trip. "The Blue" was exactly what I needed!!
