Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has spacious rooms with a comfortable bed and a nice big bathroom. However, there was a rattling noise that required a makeshift solution, and the view from the room was limited with the bed against the wall. The cleaning staff did a good job of making the room daily.
I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel! The rooms were comfortable with a unique cave-style decoration, and the little terrace outside was a nice touch. However, being overlooked from the swimming pool meant we had to close all the shutters for privacy. The service was incredibly friendly, though the presence of the barking dogs was a bit intimidating. The location was good, a short walk from Oia, away from the hustle and bustle. The dining experience was lovely, with a great view, but the breakfast options were a bit limited. Overall, a pleasant experience with some minor drawbacks.
The hotel is cute and quaint, meeting all our basic needs. It was very nice, clean, and had everything we needed. The service was friendly and accommodating, helping us even in unexpected situations. The location is superb but may need some updating in certain areas. Dining offers good variety and is overall very good.
The hotel had a cozy atmosphere with its own patio, perfect for relaxing by the pool, but it's a bit of a walk to the center of Oia. The rooms, while cave style and charming, were a bit more humid than expected, possibly due to ventilation. The service was top-notch and welcoming, although they only accepted cash payments. The location offers stunning views of the famous Santorini sunset from the beautiful cliff of Oia, but the steep roads might be challenging to navigate. The continental breakfast provided was satisfying, with a variety of options to choose from, including Sicilian cunzato bread.
My stay at the hotel was lovely. The rooms were light, airy, and spacious with a lovely walk-in shower in the bright bathroom, offering a view of the famous Santorini sunset from the outdoor seating area. The service was quite helpful overall, with assistance in booking tours and explaining the local transport. The location was perfect, relaxing, and just a nice 15-minute walk to Oia. The dining experience was wonderful, with a tasty spread of options, although a few more choices would have been even better.
The hotel offers a unique cave style room experience, a bit more humid but magically refreshed around 7 pm. The rooms are just like the photos of the property, making it relaxing and wonderful. The service, especially from Gesti and Ivanna, was exceptional, with staff being happy, accommodating, friendly, and helpful at all times. The location provides extra privacy near Oia and a convenient bus stop, although a bit dated in some areas. The dining experience offers a great variety of options, including an amazing buffet with plenty to choose from. The facilities are well-maintained, making the stay enjoyable.
