Staying at George & Stellina's stunning villa was the best Airbnb experiences that my fiance and I have had to-date. Here are a few details on why our experience was so spectacular...
They had the most prompt communication, which started from the moment that we booked our trip. Stellina & George organized transfers for us to and from the ferry terminal/airport (which we realized is so important on the island since there are maybe 15 taxis on the whole island) so definitely take advantage of this. It made leaving at 5am for our 6:45am flight, much easier.
When we arrived at the villa, we were met by Stellina's wonderful husband George and a young man that carried our bags from the street into the villa. George showed us around the house and made us feel right at home.
The villa itself is just absolutely beautiful. High ceilings, marble floors, large comfortable beds, very clean and they even have a washing machine so we were able to do our laundry. We could tell that George & Stellina take a lot of pride in the property that they built and want their guests to feel safe - they even have a security camera by the front gate which made us feel so much more comfortable during our stay.
4. The location is ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. There are lawn chairs on the front patio and the views are amazing. Other tourists actually gather around the vicinity of the property to take photos all day, but George & Stellina have done such a great job of making sure once you're inside the gates you do not even notice. The villa is very private (and quiet), but just steps from the main street of Oia.
*The drive from Oia to Fira is about 20-30 minutes and aside from buses, taxis are very hard to find so I recommended making all your dinner reservations in Oia. The views and restaurants there are incredible! Catch was one of our favorites!
