The accommodation had an incredibly authentic feel. It's an area where it seems there are many locals actually live, so it's away from the touristic atmosphere. However, you do need get used to travelling to the "spots" of Santorini. Communication was clear and check in was easy. Panos was very kind to pick us up from the ferry port and checked in during our stay. We liked the feel but a car or scooter would be what we would have if we stayed again.
