staff was amazing, he helped us with everything we asked for, we had two rooms The main room was very good it was larger with a big window which helped with humidity and air quality, 2nd not so much window was small we also didn't have a TV in the room either but overall staff hospitality and the uniqueness of the place made up for it all. And the shower is amazing. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

We had the most amazing time while we stayed here! The beds were comfortable and clean, everything you could have needed was in this incredible home. Absolutely gorgeous views from the top pool. Enrik could not have been a better host, he was friendly, kind, and the most helpful getting us around and giving the best recommendations! We could have stayed forever, such a great experience all around. If you have the opportunity to stay absolutely here do it!! Shout out to Bonnie the best little hotel kitty

We loved our stay at Aura Caves. The apartment was perfect for our family. There was plenty of room for our family of three. Our 16 year old daughter loved having her own separate space with her own private bathroom. We enjoyed our private plunge pool every day that we stayed at Aura Caves. It was so relaxing with a beautiful view. The apartment was conveniently located near several restaurants and shops. Enrik was so very helpful in every way. He was available and quickly responded to any and all of our questions and requests. I would very highly recommmend Aura Caves for your Santorini stay.

We had a group of 5 ladies staying here. First - the villa is unique and beautiful. I’ve never stayed in a property such as this. Historic and lovely. Problems arose with hot water, A/C, and WiFi, but you’re staying in a cave. This was understanble and our host was there to assist. Shower water pressure was great. I would recommend this villa. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Walking distance to downtown Fira.
