I almost don't want to write about how nice our time at the Hector Cave house was for fear that everyone will flock there, the price will go sky high, and I'll never be able to return. I was amazed at the location and view of this place. Ioannis couldn't have been more accommodating. He provided us with recommendations for restaurants and beaches and made himself available via a phone he provided in case we ran into any problems during our stay (which of course we didn't).

The kitchen is small but we were able to use it to prepare simple lunches that we ate on the patio. One of the charming thngs about Oia is all the wonderful restaurants with views of the ocean, so I would suggest bypassing cooking at home for a nice dinner out.

Know that if you want to go to a sandy beach, you'll need to rent a car. However, we made the trek down the 200+ stairs to the rocky beach below Hector Cave House and had a great time swimming in the sea and jumping off the cliffs.
