Panagiotis and the other gentleman at the Oia Sunset are the perfect host. They are warm and helpful. They gave us excellent advice on restaurants (Ammoudi Fish Restaurant and Skala in Oia and Argo in Fira), on stuff to do (hiking caldera from Oia to Fira, best beaches), on spot to watch sunset and called us a big taxi to the airport.

The apartment is beautiful and spotless - much better than the pics. The swimming pool is clean and chlorine free, great for a refreshing dip in the hot afternoon. Its location is great also - between the bus stop and town square. You can see a bit of the ocean from the patio. Oia is an expensive town. This is the best value in town.

If you visit Santorini, stay at Oia. It's where all the postcard pics are taken. Fira is not as pretty though it's centrally located and convenient to get to other places.
