The locations is amazing. The check in is full of details and info, very thoughtful altogether. The check out however was really bad. My husband and I had to walk all the way to Thira with 2 big suitcases each because the host didn’t let us know that no longer our luggage could be kept in a safe storage until night time (we had a late flight and did mention this on our very first message to the host, we were guaranteed there wouldn’t be a problem but today we got no check out instructions nor let us know where the luggage would be kept etc., we had to ask the house keeper who doesn’t speak English and said to us that the luggage could be kept in the cleaning room only until 3pm as she was leaving then).
It was unnecessary stress at check out time that we didn’t need. We had a car the previous days but didn’t have one on check out day because trusted the host word of being able to keep our luggage at Sensyos storage room.
Overall it was a bit bittersweet as we should have been notified of these changes (booked the place on April 30th and the storage hours were limited until 3pm from May).
It ended up costing us 25€ to keep the luggage in Thira as well as a walk with heavy suitcases under the sun!
The location is magical and the view priceless. All the places around this area have that same view. Next year we’ll be back to Firostefani but will book a place with a small swimming pool and that can keep the luggage until we need to head to the airport 😌
