Stunning
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.!

Perfect set up
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!

Megalochori is amazing, this Vrbo is perfect
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!

Great Property
We thoroughly enoyed our stay at Alba Lily. The property is beautiful and exceeded our expectations and spotlessly clean! The outside space is wonderful with the plunge pool area for privacy and a great roof terace with sun loungers for amazing views of the village. A great place for evening drinks. We initially used the buses but decided to hire a car to explore the island. Mark is a friendly guy and generally around to give advice. We would recommend.

Amazing stay
We had an amazing stay at Alba Lily! The house was gorgeous and Mark & Christine couldn’t have been more helpful, with sorting taxi’s and car hire. We loved the village and wandering down into the town everyday. I already miss my breakfasts at Raki and sat on the terrace at night drinking Santorini wine and listening to the live music at the local bar. The kids also loved it!

A little slice of Heaven
We adored our stay at Alba Lily. Mark was incredibly helpful and gave wonderful suggestions for places to eat, etc. and always very easy to contact when needed. The village is very traditional and peaceful, we loved getting to know some of the locals and restaurant workers, all very friendly. Easy bus rides to Fira, Oia, and Pyrgos, but always loved coming back to the village. We highly recommend Mark & Christine’s property when visiting Thira (Santorini)— we will be back one day!

Fabulous in every way
We spent a lovely few days in Santorini staying at Mark and Christine’s place. The property itself is just great. It’s really interesting because it’s actually built into the hillside almost likes caves. One might think that sounds dark and depressing but is quite the opposite. Firstly it’s wonderfully naturally cool but the air conditioning comes in handy. It’s quite light. The sitting room has light coming from the front door window and shining through from the kitchen. The master bedroom has a skylight that you can see in the pictures. It’s actually two (quite small) houses combined and the second bedroom in the second house has a lovely window seat that you can access via a couple of steps that looks out into the courtyard. The master bedroom has an en-suite bedroom. There is a second bathroom both bathrooms with great showers. The house is very stylishing decorated and great thoughtful touches throughout with lovely fixtures and fittings such as stone basins in the bathrooms. The kitchen is a nice space where you can cook proper meals if you wish. The outside space is just fab. The downstairs courtyard works really well. The seating area shaded by a sail which provides decent shade for most of the day is great for sitting and playing games and eating meals and dipping into the pool to cool off. The rooftop terrace is a real treat. We used it early morning and early evening in particular. There are sun loungers and a really nice seating area with a brolly for shade. The view over the village is fab. One evening we sat up there listening to piano music from the nearby cafe. Finally in terms of Megalochori - its a litter treasure of a place. A lovely little town / large village. Multiple nice little places to eat, little shops selling art, leather goods, etc. There is a family bakery and a decent mini market selling most of what you will need. It’s a decent hub to explore the island. After some deliberation we elected not to hire a car. We were picked up from the airport for 30 euros and we got buses around the island. It’s pretty straight forward. Fira is the hub and a. Very easy bus ride. You can change there for buses to anywhere else on the island including Oia. To get the bus to the Fira there’s a bus stop near the mini market on the LHS on the main road if you turn left on the road from the family bakery. You can get buses heading south or across the island to Perissa opposite the family bakery.
