We had a great time at 'George's' place. Demitris picked us up from the ferry and drove us to George's where we were met by Vivi.
Firstly everyone was extremely helpful and kind - George even offered us fresh veges out of his fantastic garden.
The place was also great - large spacious and with a really nice setting and small pool if you don't want to tempt the sea..... A few tweeks to make on it but very functional and beautifully prepared by Vivi nevertheless.

As stated the beach is only 5 mins away and not at all crowded. Not that clear or ideal for those new to the sea but if you are happy going out deaper it is fine. Invest another 15 minutes in walking and you will get to a more 'beginner friendly' spot which they will advise you about called Monolithos Beach.

Public transport not good (which is why you can benefit from the lack of crowds) so would advise getting your own transport sorted before settlng in if you want to use it as a base for seeing the island.

While free of the crowds you will have to accept the roar of planes flying overhead on a fairly regular basis as the house is in the line of the airport take-off. Don't let this put you off if you want to avoid crowds and meet some fantastic Santorinians!
