Our stay in Armeni Bay was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, Nicoletta had arranged for seamless transport from the airport, providing us a location to stow our luggage as we explored oia while we waited for check in, and the opportunity to stop at a local grocery store to pick up provisions for our stay in Armeni. Not only did Nicoletta meet us at our initial pick up point, but she went above and beyond to accompany us to the house, provide a tour, additional recommendations, and answer the many questions we had. The house itself provided incredible views of the caldera and its many islands. The house was spacious, comfortable, with air conditioning in the bedrooms, hot water and multiple showers with fully stocked toiletries.
Not only did Nicoletta arrange every detail once we arrived in Armeni Bay, but she was also instrumental in planning our itinerary beforehand. She reserved us an intimate wine tour of Santorini as well as a sunset catamaran tour. Both experiences made for an unforgettable stay.
Though not for the faint of heart, the stairs are doable and lead to an incredible view of the caldera. Additionally, Captain Alex was available with notice to take us back and forth to nearby Ammoudi Bay, from which we were able to meet our two tours as well as enjoy a lovely seaside dinner.
Staying in Armeni Bay felt like an authentic way to experience the breathtaking views of the caldera, while enjoying the privacy of our sanctuary.
