We booked the Alta Mar hotel from July 31 to August 02.2011. But due to the stupid schedule of boats from Crete to Santorini, we got to Santorini only from August 01. They thought that 1 day of the reservation was covered, because. You are late, it's your own fault. But. The owner of the Alta Mar hotel, Dmitry, is a cool guy! Immediately made us a convenient schedule for our trip around the island, places, beaches, the best taverns, the order of all this.

We booked the Alta Mar hotel from July 31 to August 02.2011. But due to the stupid schedule of boats from Crete to Santorini, we got to Santorini only from August 01.
They thought that 1 day of the reservation was covered, because. You are late, it's your own fault. But.
The owner of the Alta Mar hotel, Dmitry, is a cool guy! Immediately made us a convenient schedule for our trip around the island, places, beaches, the best taverns, the order of all this. And most importantly (faint-hearted - close the site! ) Gave us a missed day by extending our stay for free. And even when we left on August 3, instead of 12 noon, they dumped at 15:00, before splashing in the hotel pool, etc. , because. at the time of departure, we were also given such an opportunity!
Oya (Iya, Oya) is a heavenly place. It is here that crowds of tourists from different countries with fading catch the moment of sunset. They fill the streets of the most extreme cape and hang almost in clusters on the original, colorful houses. Hundreds of people are under the hypnosis of the setting sun, looking at him like a crowd of banderlogs at a python. And when the last time the luminary shows his tongue to everyone in farewell, All in one rush applaud what he saw. So, you can watch the sunset while in Alta Mar. Not until the very last breath, but enough to enjoy and not exchange body moisture with anyone in the crowd. View of the caldera, the architecture and the sunset!
Our room was spacious, with a kitchen - a stove, a refrigerator, a set of dishes. Everything works - checked. A grocery store is right there nearby if you are tired of taverns.
Clean, tidy up. The selection of music from the hotelier Dmitry is wonderful. The bathroom is small. Yes. But keep in mind that all the local hotels are not Egyptian. There is nowhere to leave the hotel. Around the merchant-camel-terrorists and the desert. And in Oia, you have to wander through the candy streets with marshmallow-white houses under blue icing. Jewelry is great! The food is great! Car rental sucks! Only two offices. FIG find a quad bike. And those that are in sight are broken lines (that is, someone found it . I would open a rental center right in traumatology).
Alta Mar is in a very advantageous location. Everything is under your nose. You don't have to go. Rental, shops, shops, bus, beauty (no noise) and food. And the beach! And if someone wants to give up this in favor of a larger bath, then let him rehearse at home in a basin. In Santorini, the largest bath is the sea. By the way, Alta Mar has a wonderful semi-indoor pool. Species! Great option for hot weather. Small but deep enough for jumping. And there are lifebuoys, apparently for drunken Ichthyanders and on Submarine Day. It's better than the completely open pools at other hotels in the sun.
Beaches are a problem. Oya has two. There is a descent near Alta Maar, but with us it was blocked. The other is on Ammoudi Beach 260 steps down. And keep in mind that the number of steps up will increase dramatically when you return, it will seem so exactly to you. And take coral slippers! Not to hide the anti-pedicure. And in order not to pull out the needles of sea urchins with cut fingers from their legs crippled on stones. On these remnants of the legs, you still have to crawl up the donkey dung. It's still the same 260 steps. Every three steps. And a donkey "taxi" walks along it. And abundantly fertilizes all the way, instead of exhaust gases. Ah, that wonderful smell…. I understand animals. In the place of a donkey, looking into what a steep climb in the heat, and even slinging a tourist on yourself - any crap....So - in order not to be such a donkey, USE it yourself for 5 euros. Or motorway to the beach approx. 3 km. In general, take slippers, animal-taxi and everything is wonderful! : )
In addition to oslobuses and trauma cycles, there are buses. They go often. They cost 1.5 - 2 euros. The schedule is respected conditionally. Imagine it's hot. You have reached the bus station with your suitcases. Before sending 10 minutes. We got a milkshake and ice cream. A breath of fresh happiness! You lick your lips, you look forward, you open your mouth and....beep-beep-and-and-and-and! Get on the bus fast! No ice cream!! !... And happiness flies into the trash....I'm still offended. Here I will come next year, I will get it and eat it! And I will definitely come to Oyu. Probably in Alta Mar, to visit Dmitry &
