You must stay at this lovely cave house! It’s a traditional home but renovated into a stylish contemporary building. The photos do not do it justice! It was exceptionally clean. Two bathrooms one en-suite, the other outside in the courtyard which was ideal for coming back from the beach to shower off before coming into the house. There’s a lovely courtyard to sit, eat and chill, which has garden of fruit, herbs and vegetables (when ripe and in season) to freely cut and use in your own cooking. There was strawberries and white eggplant, mint, basil, thyme to enjoy when we were there in June.
There is a number of smaller terraces and a large roof terrace from which you can see the sea. Be careful of little ones though as there’s no handrail.
Petra Dome is very well situated because it’s in the middle of santorini and therefore a very short drive to any of the other places of interest. Fira is a couple of miles away so a 5 minute car journey. Oia is a 20 minute drive. Kamari 10 minutes away.
A car is a must to explore all the island. Natasha and Adam kindly arranged this for us and had the car delivered to Petra Dome.
My boys did their open water diving course whilst in Santorini and again Natasha and Adam provided details and were happy to book for this for us if we wished.
All my questions or queries were answered promptly. Katrina was a thoughtful and attentive host and was happy to answer any questions, offered tips and suggestions on where to eat or go to visit, she even left us a lovely bottle of sweet wine and chocolate pebbles that looked so real but tasted delicious. Please ask Katrina where to buy them when you get there as I left it to late to ask so was unable to go and buy some to take home as gifts. ...it’s in Fira!
Go to Petra Dome, have fun and enjoy!
