We spent almost two weeks at this beautiful property in the delightful village of Megalochori. It is a great place from which to explore the island and as other guests have written, there are lovely restaurants right in the town so we did plenty of strolling out in the warm evenings. Mark was so accessible, friendly and helpful and kindly set up airport transfers and a rental car for us. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and offered shade, sun, privacy and views over the rooftops between the two outdoor spaces. The house stays relatively cool inside and we slept really comfortably. We were not sure whether to rent a car and didn't do so in advance, but with hindsight, would recommend to have one for getting to the supermarkets, which are a bit out of town and of course, exploring the island. We used the local buses during our first few days and they were excellent, if a little crowded at times. Santorini is a beautiful and unique place with much to see and do and we felt that we chose exactly the right spot to stay. Thank you Mark and Christine!

I can’t say enough about this place. My wife and two daughters and I stayed here for five days and it was amazing. The perfect place in a small village really gives you the sense of culture for this island. Very happy we did not stay in Oia because of all the tourist and crowds. Five restaurants within walking distance and less than five minutes away. Watch the sunset less than 15 minute walk away and see it over the ocean. Mark did such an amazing job restoring this apartment. So unique and the pool was perfect. Up top, layout in privacy and absorb the sun. At night around eight or 9 o’clock, you can hear distant music from a café playing live authentic Greek music. Mark was so helpful in suggesting places to eat, beaches to visit and sites to see. He also helped me arrange for a rental car and transportation to and from the airport. Such a great host. Highly recommend!

We absolutely LOVED our stay in Megalochori. “Alba-Lily” was a truly stunning property, perfectly positioned in a beautifully idyllic village on the island of Santorini. The booking process was simple, the communication from the hosts exemplary, & everything including transfers, recommendations & hospitality from Mark & Christine could not have been better. We hired a car from the village and I would definitely recommend this as there is so much to see & do on the island, all of which was never more than a 20 minute drive in any direction. The village itself however had everything you would want & need; 6 restaurants serving wonderful food & drink (Raki & Alisachni in particular), a winery, several shops selling local crafts, a couple of local mini-markets, plus a fantastic bakery. Our favourite however was the local cafe (Kafenio) on the cobbled street leading down to the famous 6 Bell tower; open 9 to midnight every day serving tapas with live music it’s an absolute must.! Travel further afield & you won’t be disappointed. Thira is definitely worth a visit but it’s crazy busy so avoid at peak times if possible. The beach at Perissa is fantastic with volcanic black sand and a wealth of restaurants & bars selling great food & drink, most of which were reasonably priced with water sports available should you wish. Kamari beach is a rocky beach & lot more commercialised but perfect if that’s what you’re after. So many more things to mention but find out for yourself & visit.!

We wanted a nice and relaxing vacation and could not have picked a better place. Mornings and nights on the balcony, afternoons in the pool, hanging around Megalochori throughout — this vacation was a great mental reset and we can’t wait to come back! Thank you Mark for the assistance with everything as well!

This property was perfect for our family of four with two young adults - two separate sleeping areas which worked out well for us. Well situated in such a quaint town, close enough to the action in Fira and Oai, but out of the fray and nice to come home to the quiet and plunge pool at the end of each day. The property has everything you might need - we did not take advantage of the grill area, but having access to the kitchen was very handy. The local bakery was a five minute walk and provided us with all the breakfast, coffee, snacks, ice cream, etc. that we needed. Bus stop is close and worked well. Communication was great leading up to our stay and Michael was very responsive to the one small issue we had. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this property!
