The studio apartment we rented offers a stunning view from the sun-drenched patio it shares with the main unit. It is located steps off the very busy main pathway, which makes it a quiet yet convenient retreat. There are excellent restaurants nearby, and it is a 10-minute scenic stroll to Fira, which is the crowded action-packed capital. The unit is a traditional white cave dwelling without windows or A/C, but a tower fan and new louvered front door kept us comfortable in September. The queen mattress was comfortably supportive. We did not cook on the hot plate because we ate out, but the mini-fridge was convenient. (Tip: the afternoons were hot. If we had stayed longer we would have gone to the small hotel up the hill and ordered drinks from their poolside bar, and maybe they would have let us dip in their pool? The Greeks are very generous.) Watching the sunset over a glass of wine with the owner Brigitta, who was in residence, was a highlight of our stay, as she is charming. This was a dream vacation and this was the perfect place for the perfect price!
