This is a large two room cave home that was very comfortable for our family of five. There are two large beds in the main room and a rollaway in the front room. The two bathrooms were an added plus. We stayed in the Villa Yposkafo, which is the larger of two apartments that share the entryway you see in the photographs. The other apartment is called Studio Yposkafo. There was a couple staying in the studio when we were there. It was a lot of fun having neighbors that we saw coming and going from time to time. Since these are cave homes. You may see the neighbors coming and going from time to time. You will never hear them.
The home is exactly as the pictures show. The view from the front door is spectacular. The entranceway to the home is on a raised platform above the caldera pathway, which provides privacy while you are seated outside. We had breakfast outside every morning. And the sunset from this location is as great as it is anywhere.
We were pleasantly surprised by the location on the caldera. It is between Fira and Firostefani. Fira is where most of the shopping and restaurants are located. It is also where the cruise ships drop passengers daily. You can get there with a 10 minute walk along the beautiful caldera pathway when you want to be in the busy part of the island. Firostefani is five minutes the other way. We ate at a few restaurants in that direction for lunch. The best part of this location is that it is quiet when you want to stay home.
Our host arranged a driver to pick us up at the airport. We arranged for the same service to take us back. We did not need to rent a car. We used a car service to get us to Oia. But other than that, we were on foot the whole time we were on Santorini.
I can easily recommend Villa Yposkafo for a stay in Santorini.
