This was the best Airbnb stay I’ve ever had! Panos helped arrange transportation from the airport, helped book our ATV rental, and met us at check in to go over everything and give local recommendations. He went above and beyond what a typical Airbnb host would do!
The cave house is a really beautiful stay and has everything you need. The shower is nice, bed is comfortable, kitchen is stocked, and the hot tub is amazing! In July, the hot tub is in the shade in the afternoon/evening and it’s a great spot to watch the sky as the sun sets. Panos even left some breakfast, juice, and water in the fridge for us.
The location is perfect. You stay among the locals and are close to some restaurants as well. Mistelli is a restaurant really close by and the food was amazing! There’s also a bakery called Grigoris nearby and it’s a must. They have tons of traditional Greek pastry, sandwiches, and coffee.
We loved renting a quad (450cc) and used that for transportation for the two of us all around the island. We were able to fit two carry on bags and two backpacks on the quad to get back to the airport. Looking back, we would’ve done this to get from the airport to the Airbnb, per Panos’ recommendation. Having a quad is a really fun way to explore the island!
I’d highly recommend spending some time in Thira. We ate so much amazing food and great drinks. Theres a lot to do and lots of people watching. A few favorites were Diverso, The Boozery, Solo Gelato, and a gyro/falafel place right on the main road (3,50€, very affordable).
This Airbnb is a perfect Greek stay and you will love it! Panos helped make the stay comfortable and fun. He cares a lot about his guests! We would absolutely stay here again when returning to Santorini.
