This place was amazing! If you want to experience an authentic stay, away from the island’s tourist traps, this is the place for you. It is located approximately 15-25 minutes away from Fira, Imerovigli, and Oia. The lighthouse and the ancient city of Akrotiri are just 5-10 minutes away. The owners, Georgia and her dad, are extremely friendly and hospitable. The place was very clean, well organized, and packed with all the amenities we needed. A bottle of white wine, several bottles of cold water, and a fruit basket were some of the welcoming gifts left by the host. Shampoo/body wash, hand soap, and large towels were also provided. The view from the courtyard was breathtaking! I will definitely visit again!
It is important to know that communication through Airbnb is made by a third party who manages the bookings and communicates with clients. Georgia and her dad don’t speak English, but their kind and generous gestures can be easily understood by anyone. I gave a 5 stars review on communication based solely on my interactions with Georgia and her dad.
In terms of transportation, you can catch the bus from the port to any destination on the island. There are bus stops everywhere. For the bus schedule and prices, search KTEL Santorini. You can also rent a car at the port, upon arrival, for a very reasonable price (50% less than what’s listed online and way cheaper than what’s being offered through the Airbnb management.)
It’s a little tricky to find the place, so make sure you put the longitude and latitude coordinates on your GPS.
