Our stay at Azar Villas was a dream! Each villa is beautifully designed for optimal comfort. The private pools are a delicious clear turquoise and have serene views out onto the surrounding cliffs, including some charming little windmills. It's the perfect place to recharge and have peace and quiet. Anna, our host, was perfect. She was so kind and helpful, very responsive and cared about our enjoyment of the island. She helped us book reservations and a boat tour, and arranged a complimentary breakfast for us every morning. It's amazing to have a local give you advice on where to spend your time. I recommend renting a car because transfers are very expensive (a 10-minute ride is at least 30 euros during peak season so you'll spend 60 just for a quick trip to a neighbouring town). There also isn't much to do immediately around the villas, but everything is a super easy drive away (I suggest Pygros, Fira, Imerovigli, the cinema in Kamari, black beaches in the south, perhaps white and red beaches/ see them via boat tour, and Oia in my opinion deserves a few days of its own), and you'll honestly be so content never leaving the villas and just indulging in the beautiful, calm environment.
