This cave house is located in a privileged spot, overlooking the caldera. It has a nice small jacuzzi where my husband and I could rest after walking along Oia’s main street full of restaurants and souvernir shops.
It is the last property from a row of cave houses, so nobody can disturb you while you are in the terrace or the jacuzzi. It has air conditioning, and the fact that it is a cave house makes it specially cool despite the extremely high temperatures of the Greek summer.
The colours of the sunset looked lovely from the terrace, but don’t expect to see the sun going down. Nor from the house nor from any of the houses or restaurants overlooking the caldera, at least in August. The sun sets further West, and you can only see it if you walk up to the very end of the main road. You just have to follow the crowd. Nevertheless, the orange colours and the blue and golden light are worth the trip to Santorini.
The house is a 15 minute walk from the centre of Oia, and there’s a small supermarket just across the street.
Fanis was available at all times through the phone, suggesting places to go or things to do. She arranged our transfer from the airport and the taxi we needed during our stay to go to Thira.
