This flat was lovely! It is situated on a hill top over looking the local beach. It is truly a little corner of peace and tranquility close to the activity of Oia.
Olga felt like a friend. She was always prompt in answering any questions and solving any problems that arose.
We love that breakfast was provided as were towels specifically for the beach. Since we were traveling from the US it was not possible for us to lug our own beach gear to Greece. These touches were special and set this rental apart from others.
The Baxedes beach that sits just below the flat has lounge chairs and umbrellas for rent. The cost for two chairs and an umbrella was just 7 euro! This beach is a short (barely) 5 minute walk from the flat. We explored other beaches on the island but always came back to this one. Our favorite!
The flat was comfortable for our family of 4. (Two adults and two children ages 17 & 21.) Keep in mind that the loft bedroom is open and has a low ceiling. This worked fine for our daughters but might pose a problem for someone needing privacy or is uncomfortable not being able to stand up fully in the space. The main bedroom has doors and a window from the living space. Note that if you need air conditioning these must be kept open as the one air conditioner in the living space cools the entire flat. Again, this worked beautifully for us!
This flat has one bathroom. There is no curtain on the shower so know that everything in the bathroom gets wet when someone showers. This is fine so long as you prepare by removing your personal items prior to using the shower.
The porches on this flat were absolutly perfect! We spent much of our time sitting outside reading, eating and relaxing all while watching the beautiful sunset and water.
People flock to parts of Santorini to view the sunset. We did this only one night ( our last night) and regretted our choice. The sunsets from our porch were far more peaceful and spectacular! The hot tub/spa was a lovely touch and one of the reasons we rented this apartment. We were not sorry!
We would stay here again. The vibe is exactly what we were after!
Thank you, Olga!
