PERFECT LOCATION FOR YOUR HOLIDAY!

The cave house is in the heart of Oia. Very close to the center and away from all the hustle and bustle of the main street. The rooftop and outdoor garden are very peaceful and beautiful.

The location of “ TRADITIONAL Cave” is suitable for our guests to reach the main places of interest of Oia in a minute! Oia, this beautiful village, carved into the ash of the volcano more than 1,500 years ago, will receive you in one of its original, traditional cave houses, the cave house. People here dug their houses underground or into the cliffs to be protected from the wind, the cold, the summer sun and especially the earthquakes! This kind of architecture makes the village a unique place on the planet! The house, because of its singularity, has to be preserved exactly as it was originally!
In case you are more than 2 persons there is also the Sunset Studio (for 2 people) and the Sunset Apartment (for 3 people) just next door. Sunset Studio is a beautiful cave house with a double bed and a sitting area in the living room, a kitchenette, an indoor hot tub and a bathroom with shower! Sunset Apartment consists of one bedroom with traditional style double bed, a living room with a sofa bed, a bathroom and an indoor jacuzzi.

PERFECT FOR YOUR FAMILY OR GROUP OF FRIENDS!

The cave house is recommended for a couple. If you want to get away to relax, write and just enjoy the life of Santorini without feeling like a tourist, this house is ideal. It has Wi Fi and AC - although rarely needed as the house gets a nice breeze if you leave the windows open.

    My husband and I enjoyed our stay in the traditional cave house. We stayed there for two weeks. It is ideally located along a quiet walking path and yet it is just a block away from the busy Oia centre. It is just a few minutes walk to taxi, bus or rental car if you want to explore the rest of the island. The unit has a small kitchen, perfect for making breakfast or lunch. Supplies for breakfast were included. The bathroom has a nice walk-in shower. There is a rooftop patio that is a great place to relax after a long day of sight seeing. It has lots of seating and is decorated with lots of plants. Very pretty. There is an additional sunset viewing deck about a block away and it is this feature that really made the entire stay very special. It was so fantastic to have this semi private deck (shared with other Santorini paradise guests) away from the crowds, best seat in town to watch the sunset with wine and snacks supplied by our host. We even brought take-away dinner there a couple of times. Our host, Maria, was very attentive and always made sure that we had everything we needed, including transfers to/from the airport.

    Property was very nice. Only downside, there was no place to put clothes. We lived out of a suitcase. That was a frustration.

    Location, location, location! This cave house is located around the corner deom the Oia windmills. The common areas are awesome and there is a private patio not far to view the amazing sunsets. Our host and her assistant, Pietro, are wonderful. The cave house was perfect.

    Overall just an amazing experience! It was a wonderful place to stay, the view was amazing, and anything that we needed help with (luggage/transfer around island) the owners were so quick to help out!

    The apartment was very clean, the bed was comfy, and it was located in a great area. Still within walking distance, but also the shared terrace faces the sunset. With the crowds on that side of the island trying to get a glimpse of the sunset, it was nice to have our own private area to watch. The checkin process was nice as someone carried our luggage on a dolly since the streets are very hard to maneuver. The stocked mini fridge was also a very nice touch!

    We had an incredible time at Maria's. We were just a few steps from all the people and the attraction, but in a quiet spot. We could watch the Sunset every Night, Eating the dinner on the terrasse. The employees were really Nice and they always had little attentions for us (fresh fruits, messages, etc.) We loved every minute of it. The only Little thing were the pillows that are very big and thick. Everything else was perfect!

    We enjoyed our stay for our honeymoon at Sunset cave. Maria was sweet along with her assistants. Check in and check out was a great help with the helping getting the luggage to and from the stay. The location is great. The power did go out briefly in one of the early mornings and a battery outlet kept beeping for some time but the power did eventually come back and the beeping went away which is out of control of the host. I would recommend this stay.

    Our visit to Santorini was wonderful. Maria was easy to communicate with and assisted us greatly with our transportation. Daniel was very accommodating and helpful with our bags. It was very helpful to travel light. April was a wonderful time to be there, as the weather was very pleasant and the crowds minimal. Thank you for the memorable stay.

    Maria is the best host one can ask for. Easy to communicate with and helped with so many aspects of my stay on Santorini prior to me staying there. The unit is quaint and very clean in a great part of Oia. Very nice rooftop terrace as well, to watch the sunset. Highly recommended.
