If I could give Irene and her studios 10 stars I would! Staying at these studios felt like staying at home and has been by far my best Airbnb experience of all time. I highly recommend using this space for your trip to Santorini.
The Host:
Irene is an angel sent from the heavens. Before we even arrived Irene showed us nothing but hospitality and kindness. It was very clear from the moment we stepped on the island, our stay was her top priority.
She arranged transportation for us from the port to our rental car agency.
We arrived 2hours later than expected as we rented a car and had a bit of difficulty finding the Airbnb (if using google maps: type in Glaros Beach Seaside Studios, Greece). Nevertheless, the host waited for our arrival and even offered to drive us back to the car as we had parked it much farther from the location.
The following day she greeted us and provided us a tour of Santorini, listing all the points of attraction, restaurants and suggested tours. The information she gave us was better than any website or pamphlet. Irene continued to go above and beyond her duties when she went out of her way to reserve us a beautiful table at a restaurant in Fira (overlooking the sunset) for my boyfriends birthday. Her reply time is spectacular and if you have any questions prior your arrival (car rental, port/airport pickup, bus, tours, etc) make sure you ask!
The area
The common kitchen is great and equipped with all the essentials. Each room has a fridge and cabinet to store your individual groceries/ items. There are many super markets surrounding the area, all about a 10 minute walk from the studio. The studios are located right in front of a beautiful black sand/rock beach that’s over 5KM long and has some of the best restaurants/bars I’ve ever been too. The nightlife is great and best of all, the studios are located close enough to enjoy it but far enough that at night the studios are quiet - perfect for sleeping!
