Maria's place was amazing! The pictures don't do the view justice. She arranged for a cab to pick us up from the airport, and upon arrival to Oía, a porter was waiting to take our bags. We got to the island early, so our bags were stored at a restaurant until the place was ready. The home is on the lowest level, so there are many stairs to get there. It was definitely a good workout! The place is very close to all the activity in Oía, but being down so many stairs made it much more quiet. When the porter dropped us off at the home, he explained the ins and outs of the home and arranged for a cab when it was time to leave. That cab was promptly ready for us as well. Overall it was a wonderful experience that I would recommend to anyone.
