We returned to Santorini 20 years after being married there to show our teenage children. Twenty years ago we stayed in Oia but decided to stay in Perissa this time. It was a great decision. Oia, although still picturesque, has grown too much and is too crowded. It was much better to visit there instead of staying there. David suggested viewing the sunset from the monastery (the highest point in the middle of the island). That too was great, uncrowded and 360 degree views. We got great recommendations for dining and pretty much anything we asked. Only wish we could have stayed longer!
