Big Blue Villa with Hot tub and Sea View by Caldera Houses

Had a wonderful stay! Beautiful, clean, updated home. Perfect location, but be prepared for lots of stairs (and people waiting in line for pictures)- not a problem for us but could be for anyone with mobility issues. Breakfast delivered every morning along with daily cleaning. Would wholeheartedly recommend!

This lovely villa was the start of our honeymoon adventure throughout Greece, and I could not have picked a better place. While it is quite a climb to get down to it, the view was well worth it. Breakfast every morning was light, healthy, and delicious. They also deliver it to your door! Which we loved... Highly recommend for a romantic get away.

Sitting in the pool overlooking the caldera and watching the sunset (at least what you can see before it drops behind the crest of the houses in Oia) was amazing. As a family of 3, the set up was nice in that my daughter slept upstairs and us in the bed downstairs. The downstairs bedroom is the only access to the bathroom, but that wasn't a problem for us at all. We had the owners pick us up at the ferry, take us to meet the porter and concierge, and show us to the apartment. It was seamless (other than the driver driving like a wild man!). Our stay was lovely and the unit was pretty private for the neighborhood (basically at the end of the path so no one walking in front of the property), plus, the area of the unit has a rope and then a chain stopping people who aren't staying in the rentals below from coming down and taking pictures/making noise. That said, my only disappointment in Oia, which is separate from the unit itself, was that there was a constant stream of girls/women in the same dress/different color coming down to certain photographic spots from sunrise to around 11am taking professional pictures. It was rather distracting as we sat drinking coffee and admiring the amazing view in the morning, like a train wreck that you can't stop looking at. It wasn't a huge bother, I just wished they weren't there so I could just admire the view, but I guess that's just part of the experience! This unit is really amazing and you'll enjoy it, for sure! Especially if you go when it's not peak season of the summer (we were there the last week of August) and the price would be more reasonable! Lastly, the concierge, Mary, was great and booked dinner reservations for us as well as offered many suggestions. We ate at 3 of the 6 restaurants she suggested for dinner and they were all excellent!

Loved the views everyday, morn, afternoon, evening. Got a kick looking at the famous blue dormed church everyday. Private too, no stray tourist down the restricted path. The heated jacuzzi was superb in the cool weather, and a highlight on its own.

This property was simply unbelievable. My husband and I rented this for three nights for our honeymoon and it was breathtaking! Our host, Catherine, was AMAZING! She set up reservations for our dinner, had our car rental delivered to us, and so much more. She helped set up a transfer from the port, where we were taken to meet the porter who took our bags down the steps to our property and showed us around our room. There was daily house service that made up the beds, changed the towels, and took care of the jacuzzi maintenance. The view is unbelievable and the jacuzzi was the perfect place to come back and relax. The kitchen has everything we needed during our stay, the bed and bathroom downstairs were beautiful as well. I cannot say enough good things about this property and the wonderful people who made our stay so unforgettable! Thank you!!!

The home was beautiful and like new. Unbelievable views. Everywhere you turn was a photo opportunity. It was a dream come true. Thanks to our porter, Tim, and property manager and concierge, Tina, who took great care of us and Faris and Tina for sharing their home.

We could not have asked for a better experience. The house was incredible. The location was perfect. Catherine was wonderful as well as Tina. Accommodating, thoughtful, and so helpful. House very well appointed. We will be staying here again!

The photos on VRBO accurately capture this property. Felt very well cared for by the hosts. Don’t think twice book this today!

Everywhere you turn in Santorini is a photo opp. This cave house was exactly what we looking for as the views from the terrace are mesmerizing. It is a few flights of stone stairs to the main streets of Oia where there are many shops and restaurants. The porter carried our bags which was much appreciated. Stupendous location. If you go eat at Gepsis and ask for Chris(during the season). Also do yourself a favor and walk from Oia to Thira or vice versa.

We enjoyed a very relaxing week in Oia Santorini. The Big Blue is in a great location - close to shops and restaurants. We spent a lot of time on the deck enjoying the beautiful view. Deck is also a good location for taking sunset pictures. The villa has no access by car with lots of walking which is exactly what we were looking for. Fanis and Tina have a shuttle service to and from the airport along with porter to help haul luggage which we would highly recommend. Oia is a very popular location so crowds along the main streets can be overwhelming at times. Good public transportation around the island. Catherine was very helpful at booking any tours etc. Island has many boat tours, winery tours and walking trails. Not sure if we will ever get a chance to be back in Santorini again, but we would definitely book The Big Blue Villa again and recommend this villa to other travellers.
