On arrival in Oia we could not believe its beauty. We were greeted where the car traffic stops by a member of staff, who took charge of our bulky luggage, leaving us free to make our way to reception. Atrina is conveniently located a short walking distance from where you will leave your vehicle - and is located directly off the paved pathway. Being high on the hillside gives you the most beautiful view of the caldera and surrounding villas. We found a gift of local (delicious) wine as our trip was to celebrate a birthday. We sat on our landing like kings, sipping wine and soaking in the atmosphere.
We stayed in Tholos House, which was on the top level. There was no pedestrian/traffic noise and the other residences did not disturb our piece of heaven. The house was spacious, spotless and all you could want. Lovely white and blue decor, a sofa and coffee table, dining table and chairs, kitchenette with refrigerator, bathroom with shower and toilet.
The bed was very comfortable with crisp linen and towels. Some toiletries were supplies such as soap, shower gel etc... Gorgeous pool area and sunlounges make the accommodation even better. Breakfast was served in your house, on request. When checking in you are given a mobile (cell) phone which you can use all over the island. A great innovation!
Apart from the fantastic houses, what really stood out was the professional and abundant assistance we received from management, when the strike threw our plans awry. We were so grateful for their generous time and advice, trying to rebook/reschedule flights and making many calls on our behalf. A mark of a professional and understanding team - we really appreciated your help.
Our return trip is hopefully not too far in the future, and we will definitely return to Atrina.
