The location of these studios is second to none. You sit high up in Imerovigli, which is the highest point in Santorini, and have a nearly 360-degree view of the island. The town itself is quite small and calm, a nice respite from the hectic atmosphere in Fira, and walking to Fira was a very easy 15 minutes through charming little paths along the caldera. We recommend getting a coffee or smoothie at the nearby Blue Note Cafe, which has breathtaking views of the sea, and getting up early to walk east toward the grocery stores and cafes to catch the sunrise. And of course the sunset from Imerovigli is incomparable.

The studio was clean and modest. There were a couple rough spots — i.e. the door going out to the balcony was coming off its hinges — but we honestly weren't bothered much by the little details because the view and location were so perfect.

Also, Alexandra was a fantastic host, arranging for a transfer from the port and even meeting us when we got in from our ferry at 3 a.m. to make sure we were comfortable. She's great!
