THIS IS THE PLACE you’ve been looking for, so stop exhaustively researching like I always do. I’ve used Airbnb since 2011 and I can tell you Alex and Christi’s place is amazing!! Not only is the location great (5-7 min walk to the caldera), but you also have sea views when you walk out your front door. This place is tastefully decorated, extremely clean and Alex and Christi couldn’t be nicer or more responsive hosts (trust me, this makes a difference). If he gives you a tip for a place to eat or visit, 100% listen to him!!
Don’t miss the opportunity to hike from Fira to Oia, give yourself 3-4 hours and be sure to make a reservation at Ochre Bistro to reward yourself with an amazing sunset view and fantastic food to end the day (thank you for the Restuarant tip Alex!).
How nice are these two? My wife bought a hat in Croatia and left it in their unit, I simply informed them that we left it in the unit, Alex replied and said he’d meet us at the airport, which they did and it made my wife’s day to have not lost her New hat.
Oh, and the chilled bottle of wine was a very nice welcoming touch, it was delicious!
Thank you again Alex and Christi!!!
We’ll be back and will share your place with are traveling friends.
