Maria's villa is in the heart of Oia Santorini and is absolutely stunning. The view from the front patio is breathtaking and just a few steps up are all the restaurants and shops and cafes. I found the locations very central in Oia, although keep in mind if you are a family and have young children or elders with you, the steps up and down to the villa are a bit steep and hard to bring luggage back and forth. This is obviously the case for most villas in Santorini due to how the town is structured - but just keep it in mind. Maria was an amazing host, had someone named Wakilis who helped us with our bags and showed us to the suite. The next morning she met with us and walked us through what all to do and where to go. We followed her advice and had a great trip! I would highly recommend a catamaran or yacht cruise as this was the highlight of our trip in Santorini! Thank you for an amazing stay - Oia was the best part of our 2 1/2 week Europe trip!
