Looking for an apartment to rent.

[by luckythirteen]

Hello, I am looking for an apartment to rent for the spring and summer. 1 or 2 bedrooms and must be fully furnished.
Location ideally near Fira or surrounding villages but would consider further afield.
If we could find one with bills included that would be a bonus!

I will be needed it around the weekend of 12/13th March.

Looking around the 300 euros mark per month.

Thanks

Kirsty.

There is the newspaper www.xe.gr with apartments to rent but it is only in Greek.

I suggest you contact a real estate agency in Santorini. Aspis Real Estate for example has some houses for rent
http://www.aspis-realestate.gr/index.php?lang=en
but there are also many others if you search the web.

HI, Thanks for the reply. i cant read greek ..... not yet anyway! Also Aspis real estate dont do rentals in Santorini, i was in there office last october asking them.
The web hasnt got much on rentals as i know that most rentals are advertised locally on boards, in the streets or word of mouth.
Thought id give it a go on here anyway!

In that case, better go there, stay in a hotel room for 3-4 days and look for a house from close. It will be easier.
Good luck and have fun in Greece!

Hi, yes i did.... there are many apartments to rent. You just need to ask around. I ended up in Karterados fpr 6 months and now i am staying in Fira in a small room but its only for me now so its perfect. Just ask in the cafes, bars ect.. and you will find somewhere. If your still having problems, let me know. Are u in santorini still now? i have a small room right in the centre of fira and there are many rooms free in my building and its cheap and um.. kinda cheerful! any problems, let me know.. i m here for another 2 weeks. kirsty
