Lovely oasis near Oia!
We had a delightful stay at Vanta's place. A Terre is in Finikia, which, as the listing notes, is just a 15-minute walk from the bustling streets of Oia. It's the perfect spot for those looking for proximity to everything the town has to offer, but a bit of a quiet retreat at the end of the day. (It's also just around the corner from a critically-acclaimed restaurant.) The property itself is spotless and tastefully decorated, with a lovely terrace, and Vanta went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. One thing to note is the listing refers to a "bedroom" - the sleeping area is set off from the living room, but the property as a whole is pretty open-plan and the only door that closes is to the bathroom. Just in case that's a consideration for your travel party. All in all, highly recommend!

Amazing Home
We loved the location in the heart of the village. The cave house was cool in the summer heat and there was plenty of outdoor space to sit and watch the sunsets. The owners went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. It was an amazing vacation!
