Villa Dimitris

I stayed at Villa Dimitris on recommendation from my friends who had stayed there a year ago. It's definitely a great choice on Santorini! Perissa is an excellent location because it is slightly less touristy and crowded than the other towns. It has everything you'd want on an island vacation without all the masses of tourists/cruise ships/shopping strips...though it's easy to get to all the other towns as well. There is still lots to do in Perissa, including lots of restaurants and bars, and bonus...you are right on the beach! There are lots of chairs to rent and you can get from your room to the beach in just a few minutes! It's also very easy to get to all other parts of the island, whether it's by bus or by ATV. Villa Dimitris was very nice, especially for the price, considering where you are and that it's Santorini! It was an excellent deal for a private room with private bathroom, that was clean and had great air conditioning (essential in the summer) (though the room wasn't cleaned one of the days we were there). The owner is also very hospitable and helpful, and even if she is not on the premises, she is easily reachable via e-mail, and is very responsive and helpful. Each room also gets a free airport transfer, which comes in very handy since the buses from the airport are very infrequent. I would definitely recommend this as an excellent place to stay on Santorini, for the room, value, and location!
