Given the prices, we might just rent a car for a day to go from one end of the island to the other -- Oia to Akrotiri.
We were able to get a rate of about 70e for a midsized automatic for 24 hours from a local company. As mentioned, pickup/drop off took time, but the car was in great condition. DM if you want more info.
