Maria was a fabulous host and her place was just beautiful! When we arrived we were greeted by Maria's mother and met Maria a day or two later. Both were so lovely and helpful to us during our stay (e.g. arranging transport for us from the airport and booking a wonderful catamaran trip for us). The apartment is about a 10min walk to Oia which makes it perfectly situated near restaurants/sights in Oia but also a little out of the way of crowds. I would definitely recommend Maria's place to anyone wanting to stay near Oia!
