Olyra Traditional Cave Houses

We had a lovely stay at Olyra Cave Houses. The calm, cool interior was full of character, clean and comfortable, with lovely beds and fabulous outdoor space. The house we had felt much bigger than it looks on the photos. Dimitra is a kind, helpful and friendly host who just loves the house and loves welcoming visitors. She answered all our queries incredibly quickly and helped us arrange transfers from the port and to the airport. Pyrgos is possibly my favourite place in Santorini, along with Oia, and was peaceful even in July. Olyra Cave Houses are in a perfect location, within a very short stroll of cafes and tavernas. We will definitely return!

Dimitri was an amazing, kind and wonderful hostess. She made our stay so comfortable. If you havent stayed in a cave, you must try this one. We arrived very late at night and Dimitri was there to welcome us. She made sure there was Tea, Coffee, bread, ham, Cheese.and other snacks Also everything was very near by.we are for sure coming back. Enjoy your stay :).

The place is beautiful, clean and very comfortable. The location is good and nice, but it's better when you have your own car. There are some buses, but it depends where you wanna go. We rented a car from the airport and dropped off at the port, so it was totally fine for us. There are some mini markets, shops and restaurants by walking distance. I very much recommend this place!

All perfect if you have a car or don't mind taking a bus to the beaches, Oia and Thyra. Always good to check your budget and plan your trip before booking anything. : )

What a wonderful and delicious accommodation, everything was perfect. The owner is very friendly and always ready to help.

The cave house is fabulous and the host is very helpful. Daily cleaning service was a surprise and breakfast/snacks was topped up daily. Also great view from the terrace!

Pyrgos is beautiful but it can be difficult to get to if you don't want to wait for buses. Definitely recommend getting a shuttle to the airport as bus is unreliable.

It would be nice if softer pillows could be provided

Excellent location, great facilities, amazing host - Dimitra who is so helpful. This is a unique property that will not disappoint and is kept exceptionally clean.

Nothing!!

I cannot put into words how much we loved and enjoyed this place! I will reccommend it to everyone, the place is perfect, cosy, clean (and cleaned daily!), Dimitra was very helpful in organizing transportation and all else. Pyrgos is definitely the best place on the entire island and perfect as a starting point for exploring Santorini. P.S. To anyone reading this review, make sure you try the breakfast platter at Brusco ;)

I loved everything about the Olyra. It's spacious and cozy. The cave style is great, especially in the bathroom. I liked the fact that the bedroom had a blue "balcony door and windows" that separated the sleep area from the living area. Very unique. Dimitra, the host, is an amazing lady. Super nice, very friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend this place!

The stairs. There are many steps to get to the Olyra, however, majority of the places in Greece have stairs and steep pathways.
