Er gab uns eine detaillierte Einweisung und viele Tipps für die Umgebung. Die Wohnung ist sehr sehr schön. Geräumig, typisch santorinisch erbaut und liebevoll im Bohostil eingerichtet.

"The location of the property is so amazing- we had the only family suite they have . Total 3 bathrooms ( 2 full and one 1/2) . Oia has tons of stairs. Older area and stairs are of all sizes . But it’s beautiful. We had very clean bedrooms. You’re in a cave so expect to see maintenance as best possible in that setting. They have done well. Location was lovely. The staff… I can say they are all amazing - wonderful people who really care about their guests. No pool - but for us not a problem as we realy wouldn’t have time as we wanted to see everything! It was my parents ( in their 70’s healthy) and my husband and I"
