The views and the home are a once in a lifetime experance. Villa Matilde ( cave house) was even more incredible than we imagined. My family of 5 LOVED everything about this home & location. The home is THE BEST LOCATION in Oia. ! This special home is built in a mountain, and is charming, roomy & clean. Maria arranged pickup from the airport which was very smooth, Vasili helped carried our bags to the villa then showed us around ( he also helped us when we left) Walking out on the top porch, the view is simply breathtaking. While there are tour groups taking pictures on sidewalks below from about 10am-sunset, it added to the experience for us, and is a testament to the fact that this place has the best view in Oia. We spent mornings, afternoons and evenings relaxing on both porches. Both Maria's were wonderful and very responsive our entire trip. From the villa, we could walk through town to eat, shop or just enjoy the amazing views. We loved being in the middle of the action and close to restaurants and shops. There is plenty to do, but sitting at the villa was the highlight for us. This was the best trip of our lives! This home is a rare special place and if you have the opportunity to stay here I strongly suggest that you do!!!!
