Excellent home and location

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the cave house. It is exactly as described and in a great location. The host was very communicative and helped us arrange travel on the island.

Great Location with Amazing View

We loved our stay in this authentic Cave House from the 1800's. The view says it all but having a kitchen and laundry were invaluable. It's in a central location between Fira and Imerovigli, hilly but walkable. Nikos and Slava were the most informative and responsive hosts we've ever had. They helped guide us every step of the way.

Beautiful Home in Beautiful Location

We had an amazing time in the Cave House. The house was perfectly suited for our family of four. The views from the patio are breathtaking. We were able to walk to restaurants and shops very easily. You could easily do your entire vacation within 10 mins of the house. The home owner was extremely informative and helpful. He suggested restaurants and things to do in the area. He also suggested a driver for transfers. Each day he sent a message to see how we were doing and asked if we needed anything without being intrusive. If you are going to stay in Santorini, this is place to stay.
