We arrived late at night due to a flight delay but the Porter met us at the car park to help with luggage and Rena was waiting at the Cave House to greet us and show us around.

It is a lovely and comfortable house, more spacious than it appears in the photos. The bathroom is small but has lots of character. Like the rest of the house, it perfectly combines traditional with style and function.

We enjoyed sitting on the patio at any time of day or night, appreciating the view of the islands, the passing boats, the birds, the stars. Rena's cats and dog joined us most of the time to sleep or play (mostly sleep).

The cave is at the end of the path so very few tourists venture this far from the main path in Oia, making it very quiet. It was a real pleasure to leave the hustle and bustle of the town behind. It only takes 10 minutes up or down the path, but is hard work going up!

The cave was cleaned each day which was a nice touch that we were not expecting .

We would not hesitate to return.
