Overall, I had a fantastic experience. The room was so clean, and it is located inside a beautiful, renovated, Greek villa. The room has all the amenities you’d find in a hotel. There is a small fridge, plates, cups, soap, portable stove, coffee maker, TV, AC, many plugs, and slippers in the room. The shower was very unique (cave-like) and renovated. Again, everything was very clean and smelled like fresh linens. There are two terraces in John’s villa that overlook the ocean and cliffs.
The location is very convenient - right on the main street of Oia and easy to find with many local supermarkets + bakeries nearby.
John arranged a car transfer for me to and from the airport, which cost a little extra but was completely worth it. Very smooth experience - I just had to send him my itinerary. I contacted John on WhatsApp before arrival, but he was also responsive on Airbnb.
John is a kind and honest person. He grew up in Santorini, so he knows all of the local spots and is very knowledgeable about the island.
Honestly, hands down the highlight of my trip. The room is in a safe, easy to find location on the main artery of the city. This is very important for me because I avoided getting lost in those Oia paths (easy to get lost in those hills). I researched other rooms in the area, and it’s definitely the best value for what you pay for Oia.
