What a fantastic experience. Dimitris and his team are phenomenal.
We had arranged before arrival for car service from the port to the house. Dimitris was there waiting for us, guided us to his nice cool car and gave us a ride to the house. All the way he gave us info on Oia and the story of his business. Waiting for us in the parking lot near the house was one of his assistants, ready to grab our luggage and backpacks and carry them to the house for us. They were not light, and he beat us to the house! Dimitris himself walked us to the house, pointing out restaurants and landmarks along the way so we could find our way around by ourselves later, it is a maze.
The house itself is very nice. A large main living area with the bathroom, kitchen, bedroom and a second smaller bedroom. The bathroom is well equipped with all the needed toiletries. The kitchen was well equipped as well. The bedroom is large and has nightstands and lamps on both sides of the bed.
The air conditioning works well to cool the house.
We had our morning coffee on the downstairs terrace each morning. The view is fantastic. There is a walkway right in front of the terrace, but unless you are standing up, no one can really see you.
Honestly, the listing boasts of a great sunset view from the rooftop terrace, we were a little reluctant that it would be that great. It is AMAZING! A couple of hours before the sunset people start to line the walkways to get their spot. We, however, relaxed and climbed the ladder to the terrace about a half hour before with our wine and Ouzo and had the best spot around. No fighting the crowds!
Dimitris is an incredible host. He helped us with dinner reservations before we arrived and at a winery on the day of our departure. He provided transportation to Fira for our hike also.
There are many houses to choose from in Oia, what we think sets Dimitris and his house apart is the incredible assistance he provides, and the great personal sunset view!
