Mariana was a wonderful host and her brother was equally helpful arranging rides, reservations as well as carrying our luggage from the town square (the closest point to the house a car can drop you off) to the house. There is maid service everyday similar to a hotel. She washed all our dishes, changed our towels and changed our sheets.

The house could not be more magical. It is exactly how it is pictured in the listing and MORE. For our first trip to Greece, we could not ask for a better place to stay. The bedrooms are fairly open but offer enough privacy. The three bathrooms worked well for our group of 8, two of them are quite sizable. With the August/September heat, the spa pool was perfect since it is chilled. It was a nice reprieve from the heat. Best of all are the sunsets out on the patio which we enjoyed almost every night.

It is a very quick walk to Fira, though pretty hilly and rocky. As a runner, I wished these paths were safe to run but they are quite dangerous and sometimes crowded. As an alternative, we found a shaded area on one of the balconies to workout (tabata, yoga, etc.) with the beautiful seas as a backdrop. Highly recommend it. The house is quite a bit less touristy than other areas nearby and offered very quiet days and evenings. The patrons at the hotel just below the house were all very friendly but a bit jealous of our accommodations...

This is as a true a luxury b&b experience as could be on airbnb. Having someone help make reservations, schedule airport pickups or drive to other activities was very helpful for our group. We highly recommend this house and team! What a great experience.
