    The place was so so beautiful, it’s an actual windmill building that was renovated. The rooms and the bathrooms were comfortable and clean. Jason was our host and he made us feel at home. The service was luxurious and the he made us delicious breakfast every morning with love. His recommendations were perfect and very helpful. Thank you Jason for everything 😊 Also the location was amazing close to everything in Oia yet very quiet and away from the touristic area. You can also watch the sunset from the patio which was perfect. I highly recommend it, worth every penny we spent. The parking is space is nearby but you have to carry your luggage to get to the villa, no place for the cars to get there. Yet Jason was very helpful with carrying the luggage with us ♥️

    maybe makes u lazy to go out because u love to stay in

    So beautiful house with killer view! People come to Oia for sunset and view and I have it here 24x7 ! Place is uber clean, The towels and sheets smells so good. it has cute kitchen, free coffee pods. cute shops and restaurants nearby. It is also near the road so not so hard to bring bags with the steps. but anyway George will take care of everything!

    Nothing - everything was perfect!

    We loved everything about Sunset Windmill! George was an amazing host- he helped us with all of our arrangements (taxis, etc.). We made the mistake of not reaching out to him to arrange transportation to the property (and took a bus that took forever to get there) but learned our lesson after that. The views from the place are incredible - pictures do not do them justice. People flocked to see the sunset from this location. It was convenient to shops and restaurants. Overall, a fabulous experience!

    No microwave or toaster oven and that's only because we have picky children who love their food hot!

    LOCATION! Located at the top of the caldera and at the end of the shops, it was a perfect location for shopping and the balcony view of the sunset is priceless! Our host George was a life saver! Anything you need at anytime he's there for you, be it, food delivery, restaurant suggestions, drivers and breakfast on the patio he'll make it happen! Ilias and Ana we're also very helpful with our stay. Our drivers Juliano and Julia got us where we needed to be safe and sound!

    The property is three rooms one above the other which is to be expected in a windmill bit you take this property for its spectacular location not it's luxury. That said it is clean and well maintained and provided a holiday adventure

    George who manages the property was v attentive in arranging pickups and dropouts as well as an island tour/wine tasting. He was always available to answer any wieties and to help when we suffered a theft of my wallet in the town

We had someone to ask anything to, he helped us rent a car at the best rate, ordered our home delivered meals for us and more.

    I don’t think there is anything I didn’t like

    The location!!! Incredible view. You don’t have to go anywhere for sunset point . You can watch straight from your big balcony. It is a Great Value for money Enjoyed staying: very close to everything. 2 min walk to main oia road , 2 min walk to parking area, 5 min walk to bus stand. There are lots of restaurants and shops nearby. Cheerful and welcoming atmosphere. Room were very big and really cleaned . You can order breakfast as well there in 15 euros ( watever u like) . George is d Best host ever . He will help you with your luggage to parking area and bus stop. Very helpful host . you just tell your problem and he will fix it in minutes. We wanted to drink tea at night and all shops were closed . I texted him if he can arrange for 2-3 tea bags and in few minutes he was there with tea bags. I wish I could post a video here for the view that you can see from balcony . I will recommend it to everyone .Everything was so amazing ..

    This was an amazing find with amazing sunset views and prime location. It’s a quick walk to for getting picked up and to all the shops and restaurants. It’s quick and easy to get to the busy area but is quiet and private area with a patio and seats for sunrise. The interior was nicely decorated and everything was quite comfortable with a unique setting. The best part of our stay was George, the property manager. He is quick to respond 24/7 for any needs. He gave some great recommendations and assisted with everything, including booking car rentals, taxi and car transfers, excursions, and even ordering food that is delivered right to the doorstep. He was an amazing host with lots of knowledge about the island and good deals. Overall, this was a 10/10 experience for the quality of service and the setting, I definitely recommend!

    Good location but terrible customer service and pre- and post-stay behavior.

    I had messaged the property two days prior to arrival that we intended to arrive an hour earlier than their typical check-in time. They quickly followed up to acknowledge but never told us where to meet them or even how to find the property. There are no signs for it anywhere nearby. My family and I searched for a while and I called their number multiple times with no response. I then messaged the property manager using booking.com app who then sent someone to meet us where we were waiting but obviously there was a long delay. Then he came by himself and pretended he never got the calls until I showed him the call history on my phone. He also suggested I "wasn't listed on WhatsApp" which is how they typically communicate with incoming guests to co-ordinate meetup spot. I told him I am a decade-long user of WhatsApp. He then opened the app and obviously found me very easily. Then the same night, they marked our stay as "pre-paid but didn't show up" with booking.com WHILE WE WERE STAYING THERE!! It deleted the message history in the booking.com app and took off the very expensive stay from my history, affecting my user status with booking.com (I am still worked to get it re-instated). Besides, it kept me from leaving them a review (the main reason they probably did this). I had to work with booking.com customer service staff to finally leave this review. All of that soured our stay by quite a bit.
