This place was perfect! Brings the whole experience of greek island life to a whole other level. This house is spacious, tastefully decorated, well stocked and the hosts went above and beyond to make sure we were well situated and were well informed about the house and the island. I highly recommend this place and would stay here over and over again.

Great experience at the highest part of Santorini in a cave house! My 24 yr old son had the 2nd level suite and enjoyed the hot tub in the private courtyard. He was able to carry my luggage up the many steps otherwise, I would have taken only what I needed in a handbag and leave my luggage in the rental car.

Die Unterkunft ist genauso schön wie auf den Fotos zu ahnen ist, wirklich traumhaft! Einziges kleines „Minus“: wer gerne selbst kocht ist in der sehr kleinen Küche mit minimaler Ausstattung etwas eingeschränkt… aber ich nehme an, dass die meisten Menschen die eine solche Unterkunft buchen sowieso lieber auswärts essen gehen, wir waren da sicher eine Ausnahme ;-). Ansonsten absolut empfehlenswert und der Kontakt mit dem Host klappte einwandfrei und war sehr angenehm! Gerne wieder!!

This is a great location. The house is clean and comfortable and in a wonderful location of Pyrgos. Nikos was a great resource and easy to connect with any requests. I would definitely stay here again. The views from the 2nd floor patio are amazing!
Maria and Tony were exceptional! There were some flight concerns on the way there and they were willing to accommodate for us! Tony was very prompt with breakfast every morning and he was easily reachable if we needed anything at all. The view and location was perfect, exactly what we wanted. There was a great little restaurant rifht down from us called Rymidi that had wonderful food and at night the view was even more spectacular and it was peaceful!
