We LOVED every second of our time at the Pyrgos Wine Villa! We pretended with lived there and I almost cried when it was time to leave (not kidding...) We're already plotting how to get back to Santorini and Pyrgos ASAP!

Sotiris was welcoming and incredibly responsive, answering texts and questions within five minutes - so appreciated! His assistant Lolla is fabulous and made sure we had everything we needed. They also offered to coordinate airport transport for 15 euro, which was wonderful. Take them up on the offer.

A quick note to future guests - Pyrgos is the sweetest little village and we highly recommend staying there. The map makes it seem like the wine villa is somewhere remote, but don't let that scare you into booking somewhere touristy and expensive like Fira or Oia.

Pyrgos is a charming, traditional Greek town with great restaurants and wonderful people. Hit up Santo Winery for a sunset to rival Oia without the crowds, and visit Kantouni and Brusco in the main square for delicious meals and wonderful ambiance. Best dinner of our trip was at Cava Alta, just up the way from the villa.

Envious of future guests visiting Pyrgos - have fun!
