There were parts of our stay that were truly amazing! For one, the Airbnb itself was so clean and looked just like the pictures. It was roughly a 30 minute walk from Kamari and a few minutes away from the bus stop. The surrounding area was very peaceful and quiet. Aris was very responsive and let us check in much earlier than planed. Breakfast was also included.
On the other hand, there were pieces of our trip to the Blue Bonita Cave that were more frustrating. Firstly, though this was listed on the website in Thira, it was actually a 20 minute drive away, and was not walkable. Luckily, the bus ride was pretty easy and cheap, but at night we had no choice but to take a 40 euro taxi as the buses stopped running at 7pm. Additionally, while Aris was extremely responsive, he and his wife were extremely present at the location (I think they live in the same complex). Had this been advertised, we wouldn’t have minded, but it was a little unsettling that he would be in common spaces frequently and unannounced.
In hindsight, I would have chosen instead to say in the center of Thira or Oia, since we were not in Santorini for long. Overall, it was certainly not a bad trip, but there were things that weren’t advertised that should have been. I would recommend this Airbnb to people looking for a quieter trip to the countryside and who may plan on renting a car.
