Location, location, location!!!! Armeni bay was completely heaven on earth. This location gives you the best of both worlds in Oia. The house is nestled right on the water, peaceful, calm and picturesque. Just above you is the hustle and bustle of beautiful Oia.... restaurants, shopping, breathtaking views! Picture falling asleep and waking to the sounds and sight of the water at your front door. Also there is a new small, quaint restaurant a few doors down called Armeni. The service and food were fabulous and great for evening just hanging around by the bay and stopping by for a bite. We also used the kayaks to go over to Ammoudi bay for lunch and swimming. As a family we have traveled to many beautiful, places around the world but I can say that without a doubt this was the best vacation! Nicoletta was a top notch hostess and we felt more like her personal guests than renters. Every suggestion from sites to restaurants were excellent! The stairs were all part of the adventure. Definitely for people who are fit and see the value in going the extra steps to have a different kind of location. We planned out our days and activities to go up and down the stairs just once.
Overall I would recommend Nicoletta and her team as top of the line hosts!
