A great place to stay to see the most beautiful sunsets in the world
This apartment was a great pick. Not only a very roomy apartment with spectacular views but great hosts (Jackie the property manager and Nikos the driver). I was in good communications prior to arriving and Nikos was there to pick us up and take us to the apartment. The apartment would be a bit challenging if I had to find on my own (as on the cliff in Firostefani) but the key is Jackie/Nikos there to take care of everything, including having someone porter our luggage down/up the cliff. I also hired Nikos to take us to sunset lookout area in Oia, noted as the site of the most beautiful sunset in the world. He then waited and took us back. That said, the next day we witnessed the sunset steps down from our apartment and I would say it was equally as spectacular (sunset over mountain) but the best part was zero people around us. We travelled to Greece during Toronto school March break and it was the best decision as only a fraction of tourists are in Santorini (or Athens) with the vast majority of the apartments in Firostefani not even yet opened. So that was one reason no one was around us when we took the most amazing sunset photos in Firostefani. Even in Oia there were like 50 people and had to jostle (only just a little) to take a photos of us that were "not polluted" by other people within the photo shot. So I highly recommend coming in March and avoid crowds and weather still very comfortable (about 17C). About 15 mins to walk to Fira with great restaurants.
