Elias Cave House 270o Caldera View Oia

The best view ever, and the owner is so kind and helpful

Incredibile location. Relaxing, peaceful. Impossible to leave. Vasiliki thank you for your support and to offer us this wonderful experience. :)

Nothing.

Hands down one of the most incredible views we've ever had. This cave house features prominently in iconic postcards, photos, and paintings of Oia, so you know you're in a one-of-a-kind spot. Vasiliki was an extremely kind and gracious hostess, personally meeting us to walk our family to her property (even carrying one of our suitcases for us) and sharing her story of its 14th Century—and possibly earlier!—origins. She arranged transportation to and from the port, provided wine and other refreshments and homemade orange cake, suggested great restaurants, and checked in via WhatsApp several times to ensure we had everything we needed. The apartment is just steps from all the hustle and bustle of Oia yet feels quiet and private. Look left and see all of the town hugging the cliffs to Fira (plus countless tourists struggling to get a glimpse as good as yours), look right and see the castle just a short walk away, and look straight out to the spectacular caldera and endless Aegean vistas. I can't imagine a better location or view in Santorini.

Our first night was quite warm and we wished for a fan in the living area where our son was sleeping (fans in the loft and bedroom were put to good use and kept us cooler), but he moved out to the patio cushions and fell asleep more comfortably there under the stars--an experience he'll remember more than any bed inside.

The host was wonderful and an amazing view

Lovely host and location

This place has a stunning view, and the staff Vasiliki was very helpful and friendly. You can’t watch the sunset from this place, but the castle is very close, need just 2 minutes walk. My family had a wonderful time here, highly recommended this place.

Our stay at this Santorini cliffside cave house was nothing short of magical. The panoramic views from the balcony, overlooking the entire caldera from the Oia castle to the iconic white houses with blue domes, were absolutely breathtaking. Every window framed a picture-perfect view that surpassed our expectations.The photos simply don't do justice to the beauty of this place. Our host went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable experience. From recommending the best restaurant in Oia to making reservations for us, their hospitality was truly exceptional.Upon arrival, we were greeted with a warm welcome and treated to delicious cake, snacks, and Santorini wine, which added a special touch to our stay. I can't recommend this place highly enough – it's the best accommodation we've ever experienced. Thank you for an unforgettable stay!

The location is convenient to parking and to popular spots like the castle for sunset viewing, yet it is down enough steps to be away from the high traffic areas, providing privacy on the very comfortable patio. The views from the patio are stunning, unobstructed views of the caldera and iconic views of the houses spilling down the cliffs on either side. The house was extremely clean and comfortable, had a well equipped kitchen and comfortable sleeping accommodations, even extra throw blankets to snuggle up with. Our hostess Vasiliki was kind and helpful, she made our stay that much more memorable.

We loved everything about our stay .
