My 3 friends and I stayed at the Blue Dome cave house for the first week of September. From the moment we booked the accommodation we had regular contact with Nick the host who we met briefly on our second day of the holiday. He was very helpful with recommending places to visit and great restaurants etc. However it was Petros who looked after us all week and what a fabulous job he did. He met our private transfer which we booked through Nick at no extra cost than a taxi and along with an assistant carried the 4 lots of luggage to the accommodation. For those that don’t know, Oia is pedestrianised so you can only drive so so close. The villa is only a 5 minute walk from the drop off point but attempting to navigate the crowds would have been quite a task as it is very very busy in Oia and particularly on the steps leading down to the villa where every tourist in Santorini has headed to get that elusive photo with the 3 blue domes which are basically on your doorstep. Once at the villa Petros gave us his number and told us to WhatsApp him for anything at all, transfers, restaurant bookings etc. And that’s exactly what we did... all week! He was so helpful and friendly. He answered every message within minutes no matter what time it was. The hospitality we received was better than that I have received at 5* resorts so Petros, if you are reading this, thank you immensely as you helped make our holiday even better. The villa itself is comfortable spacious and has everything that you could possibly need but it’s the outside space that makes it. The views from the terrace are amazing, and save for Roula (I’ll tell you about her next) was so peaceful and quiet, you would never know that up a few steps was the crazy crowded streets of Oia. You cannot see the actual sunset which we was a little disappointed with as we thought that you could as it sets just around the corner but you do see the beautiful colours of sunset. However my favourite time on the terrace was the mornings. You could NEVER get bored with that view. It is a tiny piece of heaven. Ok so coming on to Roula. Roula is a 90 year old Greek lady that has lived in the villa above to the left all of her life. There are ropes across the pathway confirming the villas below are private property and for non guests not to enter. They ignore them. Particularly the Chinese who bring photographers along with them for wedding photoshoots. Roula sees them off with a shake of her stick and a torrent of what I would expect to be abuse in Greek and she means it. Whilst you might think that’s a bit harsh, believe me by day 2 you will joining in with her. We loved her....
