We didn't meet Maria, but we did have contact with a very friendly guy who was there and helped with our luggage. There's quite a few steps from the actual road to where the apartment is, so this was extremely helpful. When leaving, I had to take a break because I was exhausted from carrying it up, he had already taken up my wife's bag and quickly came down and grabbed mine from me and relieved me. Super friendly, and amazing.

They also arranged pickup/dropoff which made it very convenient.

The apartment itself has a great location in Oia. I mean, beautiful view, and easy to walk to many shops/restaurants. The view the view the view!! That's what you're staying here for. The place is unique and I would stay here again. Oia itself is a little dead in the off-season (we came in march). We rented an ATV and made trips to Fira which has more to do in the off season, but am glad we stayed in Oia to come back to.

There's a few drawbacks here though. 1. The place is a little darker than the pictures may suggest, but not a big deal. 2. The beds are very thin, and you can feel the slats under them. They're pretty uncomfortable. 3. The WiFi doesn't work at all, as other reviewers have mentioned. 4. When it gets windy, there's a window above the door that knocks pretty loudly, and Santorini is quite a windy place.

All in all, this place was amazing and we had a great time here.
