Our stay at the the Sea Captain’s house surpassed our expectations. Takis, the manager, has excellent communication before arrival with options for travel to the hotel and offered help with excursions. Takis also arranged for a porter to help with our bags as it is down two sets of stairs from the main pedestrian only paths. Also included was 2 big bottles of water per day. We were provided with one of the best breakfast we have had in a hotel: coffee/tea, orange juice, baked goods, fruit plate, cheese and meat selections, Greek yoghurt, honey, and eggs. We were set for a day of exploring. Takis helped us plan our days. We would stay again and definitely recommend to anyone who wants to live the way people have in Oia for years….away from cars, enjoying a beautiful view. One has to expect so many people in the small walkways of Oia and adjust when you want to take photos. We were able to take the 2 domes photo but we did get up at 6am, fortunately we went back to the hotel and alept before breakfast.
We rented a car, easily found the meeting point. Grateful for the porter who helped us with our bags to the hotel
Main room as pictured in description of the captain’s suite.
The extra bedroom has steep stairs and would worry if we had kids as the window is floor level. We were only two so we did not use this room
Our private patio. Used both elevated areas for the views. Note everyone stands at the railing to get photos of Oia. Didn’t really bother us but if you put privacy high on your list this would not suit.

In the heart of Oia just steps outside the door is the most magnificent view and opportunity for fabulous pictures of the iconic Santorini landscape. This is a quaint hotel with an amazing staff. Everything was perfect!

Mr.Takis is a very nice property manager. He arranged all our pickups and drop off to and from hotel.He made sure we had breakfast next day as we had to do an early check out. This property is located in the heart of Oia with amazing views. We got up early to take pictures with the blue dome as it was right next to property and had a peaceful walk on the strip of Oia.

Excellent historic heritage property. Huge rooms. Bathrooms are antiquated with no shower curtains/barriers (apparently due to heritage property regulations). Nice breakfast and excellent owners

My wife and I stayed at this lovely boutique cave hotel and we had an amazing time. The location of this hotel is awesome, very convenient to walk to all the places to see in Oia plus close to the bus stop if you want to go to other places in Santorini, plus it has great views of the caldera and literally a stone’s throw from one of the picture taking place. Secondly, the breakfast was great, lots of fruits, Greek yogurt, cheese and choice of eggs. They even packed the breakfast for our early morning departure. Lastly, the manager, Mr Takis, is awesome. He sat down with us on multiple occasions and talked to us about the island’s history and geography. He helped plan our two day trip, suggested which restaurant’s to go to, and had arranged for our taxi ride from and back to the ferry. He made us feel like family. We would highly recommend this place.

Such a great location if you want to be in the center of Oia! Only steps away from one of the most famous photo spots and we were able to get up early and see it at sunrise without the massive crowds that get there around 8 am. The room was beautiful and clean and breakfast was great. My only complaint is the wifi is not so good. Otherwise an amazing stay

Amazing stay! Takis & his team made our Santorini trip thrice as enjoyable. Takis recommend us a list of the best restaraunts in the town. All 3 restaurants are amazing! He also helped us make reservations for Sunset cruise boat private tours and transport services from and to the airport. Everything is seemless! The hotel room was clean and cozy with amazing wifi and television services. It suit us perfectly (2 adults & 2 teenagers). Each morning, we had a delicious breakfast with fresh fruit, freshly squeezed orange juice and an amazing view of the calderra. If you’re in Oia you will not regret staying here! Thanks Takis & teams😀
