The apartments and outdoor space were outstanding and had fantastic panoramic views. Cozy beds, nice hot and strong showers, and great little kitchen areas with nice sized fridges for frosty beverages to enjoy on the patio watching lovely sunsets. Also, and importantly, the apartment is down many steps and at the end of a row of houses. This ensures a great deal more privacy than some of the other houses and insulated you from the throngs of tourist taking photos. It is also peaceful and quiet. John offers a porter service that we did not take advantage of but in hindsight may have been a good idea as the steps are a bit tricky in spots especially while carrying luggage.
John was a great and responsive host. In winter there are not many restaurants open but the ones that were were very good and the people very friendly. The cats and dogs are very playful and friendly too and one can adopt a mascot easily for the duration of your stay.
We absolutely loved our time in Oia in these lovely cave houses.
