We absolutely loved this property. The location is great. The view – truly unbelievable. The listing, very accurate. Above all else though, Theo and Danae... the members of the hosting team. These folks were absolutely wonderful: there to help when needed, quick with restaurant recommendations and insider advice, able to set up rides and activities, etc.
Our Santorini trip was magical because Santorini is magical, of course. But it has to be said that Danae and her team made it so. Our trip would have been very different without her. And we are grateful for all the help. We 100% would recommend this property.
Some notes:
The sleeping arrangements includes two interior bedrooms with large beds. These were great. The other two beds - narrow twins - are in a small room/passageway that is between a living area and the bedroom with the largest bed. Not a complaint, just fact. This area would be perfect for younger children if the parents wanted to be near. The other large bed is
perfect for a second couple, or in our case our very tall son.
The property is down a staircase - which means to leave it and enjoy Oia - you must go up and down these steps. They are not treacherous but they can be a little slick with all the wear and tear. You do not need to be a mountain goat to go up and down, but it'll feel like work to some.
The patios and plunge pool are fantastic after a long day - or during a day spent relaxing at the property. Be aware that he pool deck area has no lights, this is because it is visible to passersby on the main path of Oia. Again, not a problem, just something to be aware of. The remaining patio space is well-lit. Since the island can be quite crowded it was actually nice not to feel like everyone could see us while we relaxed.
Lastly, Oia does get quite crowded during peak season, and EVERYONE tries to get to a spot to watch the sunset. It's really only during the sunset hours that it feels over-crowded and with some planning and good timing, the crowds are no problem at all.
