Mr.Takis is a very nice property manager. He arranged all our pickups and drop off to and from hotel.He made sure we had breakfast next day as we had to do an early check out. This property is located in the heart of Oia with amazing views. We got up early to take pictures with the blue dome as it was right next to property and had a peaceful walk on the strip of Oia.

My wife and I stayed at this lovely boutique cave hotel and we had an amazing time. The location of this hotel is awesome, very convenient to walk to all the places to see in Oia plus close to the bus stop if you want to go to other places in Santorini, plus it has great views of the caldera and literally a stone’s throw from one of the picture taking place. Secondly, the breakfast was great, lots of fruits, Greek yogurt, cheese and choice of eggs. They even packed the breakfast for our early morning departure. Lastly, the manager, Mr Takis, is awesome. He sat down with us on multiple occasions and talked to us about the island’s history and geography. He helped plan our two day trip, suggested which restaurant’s to go to, and had arranged for our taxi ride from and back to the ferry. He made us feel like family. We would highly recommend this place.

Great location

Such a great location if you want to be in the center of Oia! Only steps away from one of the most famous photo spots and we were able to get up early and see it at sunrise without the massive crowds that get there around 8 am. The room was beautiful and clean and breakfast was great. My only complaint is the wifi is not so good. Otherwise an amazing stay

Amazing stay!

Amazing stay! Takis & his team made our Santorini trip thrice as enjoyable. Takis recommend us a list of the best restaraunts in the town. All 3 restaurants are amazing! He also helped us make reservations for Sunset cruise boat private tours and transport services from and to the airport. Everything is seemless! The hotel room was clean and cozy with amazing wifi and television services. It suit us perfectly (2 adults & 2 teenagers). Each morning, we had a delicious breakfast with fresh fruit, freshly squeezed orange juice and an amazing view of the calderra. If you’re in Oia you will not regret staying here! Thanks Takis & teams😀
