Location in everything. This place was absolutely postcard dreamy! Do yourself a favor and book this now. We were right by the blue domes and having morning coffee on the gorgeous patio with the gorgeous views was breathtaking. Be forewarned, the owners of the cave house have made every effort to display "PRIVATE PROPERTY" signs but because this location is so beautiful, you will have other tourists trying to get on the property to get that perfect picture of the blue domes. We had to remind people attempting to trespass that it was private property and on one occasion we were even wakened by someone walking on our roof! A simple "this is private property" sent people scurrying along though. A small price to pay for staying at a prime location :)
We were welcomed by Maria and a gentleman who carried our luggage to the house. Maria was friendly and extremely warm and genuine. She walked us through the house and showed us where everything was. They provided coffee and bottled water for us and she sat down and gave us some recommendations on where to eat and what to see. She set up a last minute reservation for 5 of us at Candouni restaurant on the evening we arrived. Such a nice touch and we absolutely loved our meal and all of the restaurant recommendations that she made. Before leaving she gave us her phone number so that we could communicate with her via WhatsApp in case anything came up. Every time that we messaged her, her response was almost immediate. One of us had luggage that got lost and once the airlines found it, Maria took it upon herself to meet with the airline agent to get our luggage and then personally delivered it to our room. She also arranged a boat tour for us which ended up getting canceled due to high winds but she was so great at keeping us informed of the status.
We did have a few minor issues with the house. The clothes washer wasn't working but Maria made it a point to come to the house to check it out and apologized profusely for the inconvenience and promised to get it fixed. It didn't really affect us. We ended up handwashing just a few items and although they don't have a clothes dryer, they do have a clothesline hidden from public view outside that dried our clothes quickly. All the other minor issues we had were immediately fixed. Nothing that put us out or disappointed us.
To summarize, this house is beautiful, the location is perfect. Maria was the cherry on top though. Her service, kindness, promptness, and professionalism were out of this world. The house was beautiful on its own but add Maria's service to it and it truly gave us a stellar experience. No reason to look elsewhere, we will definitely be back! Thank you for being so wonderful, Maria!!!! ευχαριστώ!!!
