Guest Reviews

• Maria (10/5): - Amazing! I booked the same day and Mario was super helpful, pickup from the airport and brought my bags down to the room which is down some steps. The room was AMAZING! The views were beautiful and the room was very large and spotless! Huge outdoor patio with a hot tub. I would definitely stay here again.
• Melissa (10/5): - The host of the property was fantastic, from picking us up and carrying our luggage down to the property to scheduling a boat ride for us. The property was beautiful and we could see the blue domes from our balcony. I recommend a dehumidifier for the rooms, as it's quite damp in the caves.
• Christopher (10/5): - From beginning to end the sevice was impeccable. Mario who runs the property was always available and quick to get anything setup that we needed. They werw kind and accommodating. They made our anniversary a moment to remember and I only hope we can come back to this location even if it is for a couple nights!
• Anthony (10/5): - Staff was great, facilities were very clean, and the views were stunning.
• Fabio (10/5): - From the moment we booked our stay here, the staff was informative, friendly, and helpful. They assisted me in planning a proposal to my partner that was magical. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience
• Sinthia (10/5): - Everything was beautiful and the service was excellent!
• Dongjun (10/5): - Fantastic hotel!
• Rajinder (10/5): Overall experience - The service was excellent. The staff was extremely nice and accommodating. I proposed to my girlfriend here and they helped put with whatever I needed. Highly recommend. The view is amazing from the terrace. Terrace and outdoor dining nook are great!.
• Arsineh (10/5): - Very nice view and very relaxing
• Egija (10/5): - This was a su
• Mark (10/5): Santorini Trip - Mario was a great host. Very nice accommodations. Highly recommend.
• Nada (6/5): - As the name implies it is a cave , it is clean and nice and unique. The reason i gave it 3 stars is because of the bathroom, there seemed to be a sewage problem and i was instructed not to flush toilet paper in the toilet, but the real problem was it's smell, to be fair i stayed only one night and i didn't have time to discuss it with the staff.
• Lisa (10/5): Spectacular views. - The property was amazing. Just beware there are a lot of steps you have to walk down to get to your room (88 to our room to be exact). Some of them are very uneven, but it was worth it. The view was spectacular. Very comfortable unique property. Also, there are a bunch of stray cats, but they were not a problem, just entertaining.
• Nicholas (10/5): - One of the best experiences we’ve had in all of Europe. The property is perfectly located in Oai, lives up to the pictures and is next to the best restaurants, shopping and swimming locations. Mario was an amazing host and was essentially a built in travel agent; arranging transportation, activities and providing awesome recommendations across Santorini.
• Rocío (10/5): HERMOSO LUGAR! - La estancia en Virginia Villas fue ESPECTACULAR! La habitación muy linda con la mejor vista! Volveremos!
• Lawrence (10/5): - Love love love this hotel. Its super cool, a cave inside of a cliff. Accommodations are superb. But the pool and view make it extremely unique and enjoyable.
• Richie (10/5): - Amazing property with an amazing view in the heart of Oia! The staff was very nice. Great experience for our honeymoon!
• Xiaohang (10/5): - Great location and highly walkable to the popular spots. Sunbed and jacuzzi on the patio are absolutely wonderful looking to the sea view. The staff is friendly and carried our luggages for us. It was quite some climb so highy appreciated!
• Michael (10/5): - Extremely clean interior, beautiful view & the kindest service on the island. Perfectly located within a 3-5 minute walk of anything you could need. The best spot to stay in Santorini, thank you Mario!
• Sameer (10/5): - Had an absolutely fantastic time! Mario was extremely helpful and not only did he come meet us to help us find parking, but he carried a suitcase down to our room. He also stayed in touch during the stay to answer any questions that came up. The location itself is fantastic - it is right at a very popular photo site so many tourists are there but it's still secluded as you go down and down the stairs. the view from the hot tub is incredible. the room was fun and very decently sized. there are many good restaurants nearby and much to explore. Lovely all-around!
• Jasdip (10/5): - We booked the superior villa for 3 nights and had a fantastic stay! The room was spacious and the outdoor area was perfect for lounging with the most breathtaking view. The private hot tub was a perfect way to end the night. Located in the heart of Oia, right by the infamous blue domes. Would 100% stay here again and highly recommend.
• Chhaya (10/5): - This property is very beautiful, you room is actually a cave with window- beautifully decorated and with a beautiful view however cant see the sunsets from your room - they dont serve breakfast and if you have difficulty with climbing stairs then the access can be rather painful However the view is worth all the discomfort
• Joshua (10/5): Amazing stay and service! - Amazing stay, everyone was so helpful whether it was ordering a pizza to the room or booking a car to tour the island! 100% recommend and would come back again!
• Julio O (10/5): - Great place to stay, one thing though. The advertisement on Expedia said free breakfast included but none was available.
• ramin (10/5): - Great property overlooking the caldera and close to everything in Oia. The property manager Mario was of great help. He coordinated my excursions and recommended places to go nearby and on the island. I would highly recommend this property for your next stay.
• Manpreet (10/5): - Perfect place to be in Oia.
• Nicholas (10/5): - Lovely quiet spot from which to view the caldera. Close to bars, restaurants and shopping but still private.
• PURVESH (10/5): - Excellent cave building, clean, spacious and decent views(not the sunset). Property is quite a few steps down and the guy from hotel carried the luggage. Overall, highly recommended, only issue (if it’s even one) is cats … lots of them. We decided to sit on terrace for a cup of tea and within 10-15 minutes we’re surrounded by 5-6 cats that jumped from alleys and terraces above the property looking for food.
• Dhruvin (10/5): - We stayed at Virginia's Cave Villas for 2 nights, and the property was absolutely amazing. We rented the Deluxe Villa with the outdoor tub, and we were not disappointed at all. The Views, the cleanliness, the service, the accommodation was just top notch. Albert was extremely helpful with everything. He made all the arrangements for us, including the transport to and from the property. Be ready for some steps to get to the property, but that would be with most of the accommodations in Santorini. Overall, a fantastic place and hospitality. Would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing stay with a nice view of the Caldera.
• Mabel (10/5): - The suite, the view , the staffs and the service are amazing! Mario is very kind and helpful. He arranged the transportation for us not only to/ from the airport but also to / from the beach. The staffs carried all the luggages for you with consideration for the number of stairs to climb in order to get to the villas. The suite has everything you need including the welcoming bottle of wine. Very clean with beautiful view of Aegean Sea and part of the caldera and blue dome church! Everything just so perfect! We truly enjoyed the stay and I strongly recommend this place!
• Valerie (10/5): Can’t say enough about this amazing Villa! - Amazing! We could have stayed on the balcony with the hot tub the entire vacation. Secluded and honestly, just perfect. We will never forget the view! Note: refrigerator but no stove in case you want to cook. We explored restaurants so it wasn’t a big deal to us but I thought it would be good to know. Overall just amazing!
• Dan (10/5): - Great location, nice sea view. Wish the wifi is more stable.
• Beverly (8/5): - The room is nice and clean. Very private and the view in our room is spectacular. The only problem is the stairs going up and down. It’s 120 steps to up and down it’s very tiring. Also, they don’t have creamer or milk for your coffee. Otherwise the staff and the property are great
• Hemini (10/5): - I am giving this property a 5 star rating because the property was clean it self. However, the honeymoon suite did not have the sunset view from the property itself. The best part about our stay was how helpful the staff were. Mario helped us out a lot!!
• Kelly (10/5): Junior suite couples stay - We stayed for 4 nights and had the most amazing time. The junior sweet is everything you could ask for and more. Mario is on hand for everything, from organising boat trips, table reservations and even prosecco on our door step in the morning. All amenities were there, from towels, slippers and robes to shampoos and toothbrushes. The views are sensational and there was nothing we didnt love. Be prepared to walk a lot, and if you have breakfast included this is a short walk up to the main street but the staff are so friendly and catered for my coeliac food requirements. This was by far the best holiday. Id recommend the junior suite to anyone looking for a private holiday with a gorgeous view of the sea.
• Chi (10/5): - Such a beautiful place to stay in Oia! Love the cave and private outdoor jacuzzi experience! Host was very responsive and the worker even helped carrying our luggage up and down the stairs. Highly recommend this villa to stay if you’re visiting Santorini and wanna be in Oia!
• Richard (10/5): Treated like royalty - Highly recommend this property. Mario and his group took care of us from the second we arrived all the way until our departure first class.
• Aaron (10/5): - Mario and the team were fantastic from start to finish. Responsive and easily contactable. They helped us with our bags and have us a mini tour on the way to the apartment. The view was insane, open your door to the entire bay area, something out of a movie! The apartment itself had aircon, a safe, a fridge and coffee machine. All the amenities were provided, including for the shower and it was perfect for what we needed. The only gripe, if you can call it that, is the fact the shower would run out of hot water after 10 minutes, meaning if 2 of you are to shower, you needed to be quick! It was cleaned as and when we wanted and the cleaning lady did a fantastic job. The private jacuzzi and sun bed area was brilliant and we had a very relaxing time. A small seat and table set in that private area would have been good for eating outside, but we did have a small bench outside the apartment. The location was incredible convenient, right in the middle of Santorini. Would go again and a definitely 9/10. One of the nicest places I’ve ever stayed.
• Xiones (10/5): - Located away from the crowd of people, but close to all the restaurants and shops. Beautiful view of Oia and the sea.
• Jennifer (10/5): - It is a wonderful place!!
• Paige (10/5): Santorini is Wonderful - The cave was wonderful...the people were exceptional. Since it's early season, being in the middle of IOS was perfect...apparently the rest of the island wasn't open yet. Getting lost on the crazy stairs brings you to wonderful off path shops...throw away the map and go for it.
• Kevin (10/5): - We stayed in Villa #4. It was beautiful, clean and quiet. No one walking past our space at all. A lot of steps to get there, but very worth it!
• Michelle (10/5): - Location was beautiful!! Amazing view of Oai. The staff was so helpful, Mario was available whenever we had a question and the other staff member carried our bags all the way from the taxi drop off point! SO generous. Mario arranged a great boat tour for us. There is ton of shops and dining nearby, close to the sunset view spot. The jetted tub on the balcony worked well and was perfect to relax and see the town all lit up at night. The room was very cute and clean. I would recommend this hotel!
• Kim (10/5): - Mario was very helpful. The bed was too firm for me.
• Alicya (10/5): - My husband and I had a wonderful stay! The property is absolutely stunning. The views are incredible. Everything is in walking distance. The hotel was extremely clean and the staff were very helpful! We loved every second!
• Myra (10/5): - Perfect location. Not sunset view but very secluded and amazing night view. We loved our suite with outdoor hot tub. The stairs can be a little tough which may be something to consider but likely something to think about when staying in this area. They will help with luggage so that’s nice. Lots of amenities and Netflix on the tv. The perfect place to wrap up our stay when we were hopping around Greece! Would recommend.
• Owais (10/5): - amazing views of the Caldera, steps away from oia's famous sunset spot. Mario was amazing, he took care of everything for my wife and i during this 2 night stop at virginia cave. Very welcoming, easy to get a hold of via whatsapp. Highly recommend this place to anyone.
• Kevin (10/5): - Loved the location. Beautiful views. Loved the balcony with hot tub. Everyone was exceptionally nice during our stay. Transportation to and from airport was a huge plus!
• Justin (10/5): - Views were spectacular, location was perfect, and staff was more than helpful and pleasant. We really enjoyed our stay.
• Frances (10/5): - The property is quite an experience! We absolutely loved it and would definitely come back. The only thing we noticed was a slightly odd smell between the front door through under the stairs (entryway), but nothing to completely turn us away. Mario and Riki were very welcoming and helpful! They’re wonderful people! We highly recommend this property.
• Ken (10/5): - Incredible. First of all, if you come to Santorini, you come for the views and to relax. If you don’t have a view of the caldera, then why are you here? To souvenir shop or take photos of the caldera? That’s fine but that wasn’t our plan. Our place had the view and the quiet. Top end finishings inside the place. GREAT view of the caldera from the hot tub and our daybeds. Our manager Mario secured us reservations at top of the line restaurants in Amoudi Bay with seafront tables.
• Johanna (10/5): - Privacy at its best! Friendly and helpful staff.
• Michael (8/5): - Great staff!
• Saad (10/5): - Excellent unique style of Santorini view
• michael (6/5): - I booked the honeymoon villa, the hot tub was not overlooking the sea as the pictures represented when I booked the Villa, I stayed at 3 hotels during my 7 days on the Island, only this hotel demanded that we not throw any toilet tissue in the toilet. Uncomfortable.
• Elizabeth (10/5): - Incredible property with views out of this world. The staff were amazing. Mario Could not have offered to do more for us. There are a lot of stairs. Thank heavens they carried our luggage down and up! We’ll be back and highly recommend it to our friends.
• Thomas (8/5): - Great view esp from our upper level balcony. Lovely place and friendly accommodating staff.
• Jorge (10/5): - Beautiful villas, perfect location, and Mario and the staff were extremely helpful and awesome.
• Janish (10/5): - Great stay, the view was incredible and the facilties the villa provides is great! Everything was really easy and couldn't reccomend highly enough!
• Sara (10/5): Amazing villa, fantastic service, perfect locatIon - We have just returned from almost a week at Virginias Cave Villas and had a great time. The Villa is gorgeous; the hot tub, facilities, room, bathroom were all top class however the location was the most amazing part for us. You couldn’t have asked for a better location - close enough to the hustle and bustle of Oia but far enough away for seclusion and privacy - the views are spectacular! Perfect for a long weekend or full holiday, immaculate villas; Mario and his team looked after us so well, took our suitcases to/fro the taxi meeting point and was on hand to answer any questions via WhatsApp which was great. We had the best time in Oia and will return to Santorini in the future...when we do, we will definitely stay at Virginias Cave Villas !
• Ivan (8/5): Wonderful location and service, tough mattress. - The apartment and the location are outstanding. The service was great too... the only thing that we particularly did not like much was how hard the mattress was. We had a hard time falling asleep on it, and is was not only me, but my wife too. Besides that, everything was excellent.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - I feel like we choose the best property in Oia, the balcony and private spa was perfect. The staff were lovely and so helpful, we were welcomed with a bottle of wine and our bags were carried down the stairs for us. The room is very spacious and cleaned every day. Highly recommend.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Magic place in the heart of Oía! Close to main attractions such as Oía Castle!
• Mariya (10/5): - This is a great place to stay! Right in the heart of Oia, Santorini (the main area of interest on the island) but still private and away from the crowds. All restaurants, markets and shops are within a short walking distance. We reserved the standard villa and it had a balcony with lounge chairs, a hot tub (small but perfect for 2 people) and an amazing sea view. The villa was specious and clean. Housekeeping did a great job cleaning, replenishing the coffee and bath supplies. There was a welcome gift - a bowl full of fruit, bottle of wine and water. Plenty of coffee for the 2 coffee makers. The staff arranged our airport transfers and carried our luggage down and up the stairs. Special thanks to the team member who woke up at 4:30am to carry our bags to the airport van. Mario checked us in and he was also very friendly and accommodating. We highly recommend this place! Do not hesitate to book it.
• H.Glennie (10/5): - The hotel has beautiful views by the water. It's quiet and spacious. It's well located, in close range to the center of the action. Lots of steps to walk, along the way made friends with neighbors. A nice Jacuzzi in the patio is enjoyable to use. Mario is very helpful and responsive. We end up extending one more night there.
• Sarah (10/5): - Beautiful! Easy check in. The room was very clean and in a safe peaceful location.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Absolutely stunning place, amazingly helpful and informative staff who carried our extremely heavy bags all the way to the door. Was a great way to just relax in the room and in the spa away from the crowds and have the greatest sunrise from our balcony. Loved every minute of staying here
• Verified traveler (8/5): Spectacular view. Very helpful staff. - The staff is amazing. Without them, you will have difficulty finding the place. They brought our luggage up and down the many stairs for us which amazed us even more. The view from the villa is spectacular. The famous three blue domes is just minutes away from foot. It’s far enough away from the main foot path to avoid the noise from the many tourists.
• J (10/5): - Everything was perfect, Mario is a fantastic host and provided a tremendous amount of support from start to end, his colleague carried our luggage up and down the stairs, booked our shuttles and atv for us. Highly recommend and the view was the icing on the cake! Definitely will be back, only issue was the showers were at times luke warm, but aside that - perfect!
• Verified traveler (8/5): - great location very clean lots of stairs. good privacy
• Alexia (10/5): - Perfect location, right in the heart of Oia. Secluded balcony with breathtaking views.
• Robin (10/5): Rearranged honeymoon to get back to Virginia’s - We had a perfect stay at Virginia’s. It was our honeymoon and Mario took absolute care of us. We had the privacy of a secluded space with five star care from Mario and his team. You can’t beat the location and view. While being steps from the famous sunset views, you somehow have privacy and feel like the view is only yours. We have rearranged our trip to return to Mario and the caves.
• Daniel (10/5): Fantastic - Wonderful location, amazing service. Highly recommended
• Verified traveler (4/5): - This was our first property of 3 in Santorini. We wanted to get a good feel for each area during our stay. It wasn’t wildly cheaper by any stretch of the imagination - however the small price jump really goes a long way at the other resorts. We were truly greatly like guest everywhere else. The WiFi was spotty and the the morning we woke up it wasn’t working at all. The contact /“concierge” told me it must be my phone that’s the problem. Long story short it never got fixed - communication was lacking/poor. Made us carry our own bag during our departure - which is supposed to be a service they provide. Don’t waist your precious vacation time or money here.
• Verified traveler (4/5): - If no one from the hotel is picking you up from the airport, it’s almost impossible to find the hotel. All of the hotels look alike and there are no big signs to indicate where to go, or even to identify the name of the hotel. I killed two large cockroaches in the room. Try getting comfortable after THAT! There’s no telephone in the room. The bed wasn’t comfortable and had a huge dip in the middle. There was a dime-sized rusty looking stain in the wall. At first I couldn’t tell if someone left a dead bug on the wall or what. There are no drawers or night stands and the closet it tiny. Good luck finding a place to put your things. There is a jacuzzi! No breakfast or room service. No face towels, only dry off. And I woke up to someone beating a hammer, directly on the ceiling of my room. I called management and was told that was the pool guy. And he does routine maintenance starting at 10am. Management called him and asked him to wait. But overall it wasn’t the greatest experience.
• Jihyun (10/5): Outstanding location - Perfect location away from the crowds yet in the heart of Oia. Private balcony with stunning views. Room was spacious and tastefully decorated. Fast Wi-Fi! Elvis was super helpful in explaining the area and helped arrange transportation for us back to the port. The only thing that could be better is the check in process. We traveled by taxi from the port but a car can only take you so far and the rest of the way you must go on foot. This is fine but we were immediately greeted by men offering to carry our luggage. They claimed to be associated with the hotel but we had no way of knowing this as they had no uniforms or anything that would identify them as being from the hotel. It turned out they did know people from the hotel and were very helpful carrying the luggage down the many stairs but for someone who does not know the workings of Oia, the process was very confusing. I would suggest arranging transportation through the hotel to make things less complicated. Like every hotel in Oia, there are many stairs to get to your room but we preferred this as it removed us further from the noise of the Main Street.
• Jan (10/5): Dream vacation at Virginia Caves - We stayed in the Junior suite cave. It was the perfect place to stay! Clean, quiet, and serene. There was nothing obstructing our view and the deck was a great place to get a sun tan. It was private and tucked away from all the hustle and bustle. The suite came with our own private hot tub overlooking the sea. The hot tub was awesome because it was actually hot, not lukewarm like some other hot tubs. The service was outstanding too and housekeeping did a fantastic job every day! I would recommend this place to anyone. I would also recommend going on the sunset cruise. The staff there can set that up for you when you arrive.
• Nathan (6/5): Disappointing Experience - We arranged a private shuttle from the port to the property for 40 euro through Nichol who private messaged us. I confirmed the shuttle on the morning of arrival and Nichol responded that they looked forward to seeing us. When we arrived, no one was at the port to meet us. We had to beg one of the tour companies to let us use their phone to call the property, and when we got through, it seemed like they had no idea they were supposed to pick us up. They said they would send a driver and it would pick us up shortly. After 25 minutes of waiting, they called the tour operator back and told them the driver got in an accident so they weren't going to pick us up and it was up to us to find our way to the property. If you don't schedule a shuttle ahead of time, the operators were charging 180 euro for private transfer and 40 euro for a shuttle which stopped all over the island. The property said they would not reimburse us at all so we went with the shuttle and it took 2+ hours to get to the property. When we arrived, we met with Mario to check-in in basically a closet - not a professional experience at all. The property does not have any type of front desk or any type of service that a normal hotel would offer. Any requests were directed to message Mario on WhatsApp or Facebook. Mario was quick to respond on WhatsApp and did arrange a transfer out on departure which went smooth. The room was clean and located well.
• Jonathan (10/5): Wow! - Amazing hotel. We were very pleased with the hotel and the staff. Thanks for making it a wonderful trip
