The location and view cannot be beat but be prepared for the 120 steps of various widths and heights. We are all physically fit so it was not problem for us but this should be noted on Expedia and the website for the villas. The villa was clean but it was HOT. There is only one small air conditioning unit and it does not keep Villa Agis cool. The master bedroom was miserably hot even with the door open, which sucked for us because we would have preferred the privacy given that it was our wedding anniversary. However we did not want to melt so we had to keep the door open. Also, the only bed clothes on the beds are fitted sheets and a comforters. Given the interior temperature of the villa, a single top sheet would have been appropriate. As other reviews have stated, breakfast is a loaf of bread, some jam, some ham, and some sliced cheese. That would not even come close to feeding our 5 kids who ranged from 17 to 23. Luckily there are bakeries nearby so we bought a variety of savory breakfast pies every morning. The safe in Villa Agis was not operational so we had to carry all of our cash, jewelry, and passports around with us for four days. That added a lot of weight to my purse. The outdoor furniture is in disrepair so that was a disappointment. Also the pool was far too hot to get into. We were looking forward to using it to cool off but it was 34.5 C!! We asked for the temperature to be turned down and it was but it never got cool enough for us to swim in.

Amazing location
Amazing !!! We loved our stay. Perfect location, everything Katarini arranged went like clockwork from transport to and from airport to porters for luggage. There are lots of stairs but the location is definitely worth the effort. Loved sitting in gin hot pool at night with view of caldera. One of our favorite travel memories

A dream villa in Oia!
Most incredible place I’ve stayed! It was a dream to stay in the Villa Hercules. Katerina and her team was wonderful with helping plan and find the best spots. The villa was spacious, clean and had everything you need and more! Incredible location, walking distance to all the best spots in Oia.

What a wonderful experience all around. Katerina was a wonderful host with fantastic ideas and helped us with reservations at great restaurants. The room was exquisite and quaint but the view was what really was incredible. A morning coffee or an after wine is a must when staying here! We loved every minute. Andrew and Rachel

Great location within walking distance to most anything. Katerina was always available and made suggestions and reservations for us. Be prepared to climb stairs as this villa is at the bottom but is worth the stairs. Would stay again.
