We spent three nights in the cave and loved it! It’s nestled in a valley just up the hill from Emporio which has a slower pace than the more touristy spots on Santorini.
It’s a very comfortable space to unwind and is well equipped with everything you need (from a comfortable lounging space with Netflix to small kitchen appliances for cooking breakfast and small meals). It’s a nice temperature throughout the day even on hot days.
There’s a shared rooftop terrace with a beautiful town and ocean view.
Anna and Theo were the best Airbnb hosts we’ve had so far. They were extremely helpful and quick to answer all of our questions. They provided great local breakfast ingredients, towels for the beach, and good local tips. Anna even brought us some great local wine on the terrace one evening and did some laundry for us!
We rented a smartcar to get around the island (scooters and ATVs aren’t available from the port) and we would recommend renting a vehicle as the sights on Santorini are fairly spread out. Go with the smallest vehicle possible, especially for North American drivers - roads are extremely narrow!
I highly recommend the cave for a relaxing stay on Santorini! It’s a nice quiet base to explore the island from.
