I promise you won’t regret staying here! Great location just off of the main tourist area in the charming old section of Oia. The property is towards the bottom of the cliff so you’ll pass all the onlookers & follow the blessed blue ropes to help you down the stairs to your own private front row terrace onlooking the caldera. It’s so private & quiet yet steps away from the shops & restaurants. Pictures in the description may seem “photoshopped“ but they aren’t. It’s that beautiful!
Lazarus, your personal concierge, is a dream, offering local recommendations, prebooking restaurants, providing sailing options, & anything else you want. He promptly responds to questions & a few weeks in advance, helped arrange an unbelievable sailing experience w/ Barbarossa Sailing (Electra & Mario invite you as guests but you’ll leave as friends!), to sunset dinner reservations at Kastro’s for an amazing dinner w/ an attentive staff, wonderful food & a beautiful view from every seat! Lazarus checks in w/ you daily to make sure all is going well & gives you a few tips & suggestions if he knows your plans for the day. He even provides you google map pins to locations you may want to visit. He responds almost immediately and is delighted to help you.
There’s bottled water, fresh fruit & wine upon arrival. Breakfast’s offered as well as tidying up the balcony, fresh towels & trash removal daily. We especially enjoyed the quiet mornings watching the sun come up & listening to the birds chirp in the palm tree. A truly peaceful, private and enjoyable experience; You’ll have shade on the terrace in the afternoon to enjoy a quiet break from busy Oia. We made friends with 2 kittens that greeted us early morning & evening, we named them Baclava (the chatty one) & Charlie (the skittish one). They keep their distance & don’t disturb you but they add to the charm & sweetness the island offers. If you’re there please look after them by giving them fresh water on the terrace below Blessed Blue & maybe a leftover bite or two.
As all the reviewers say, this property is a 5-star & the hosts truly are the embodiment of Greek hospitality!
Thank you Blessed Blue, We hope to return one day!
