I had a fantastic stay at the hotel in Greece. The deluxe honeymoon suite was even bigger and cozier than I expected. I loved the beautiful traditional design and quirky details of the boutique room. The owner was amazing and waited for us until late at night to show us everything. The staff was nice and the property arranged taxis for us. Highly recommended!
All was great, no complaints.

The Hotel is served by the one person who is the owner of the Hotel. If You will chose that Hotel pls be ready to live in the museum as all furniture and stuff are from antiquate store.

This little gem was on the outskirts of Oia in a traditional settlement called Foinikia, with a view over the valley below and the ocean. The renovated cave houses were charming and tastefully decorated. We stayed in the double which was more than enough room for two people. Sophia the owner was very welcoming upon arrival and made sure we felt at home during the duration of our stay. When she found out we were on our honeymoon she offered to make dinner for us (which was fantastic!). We had a wonderful time during our stay and would not hesitate to go back.

For the price we paid, we got great value! The room was beautiful, spacious, and felt like a home away from home. The location was amazing, just a short walk to all the attractions, and the staff treated us like family.
Breakfast delights, but could have had more variety.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The room was lovely and clean, with a super good internet connection. The owner was really kind and helpful, providing ample ingredients for me to prepare my own breakfast. The hotel is located in a peaceful area not far from Oia, which allowed for a tranquil and relaxing experience. Additionally, transportation was convenient, with a nearby bus stop that provided easy access to various attractions.
Nothing, it is perfect!

I love the environment, it is very beautiful, clean and comfortable! The Owner is very nice and kind. I really miss her homemade juice, really fresh and quenching. I strongly recommend this accommodation to people who want to live in a traditional cave house in Oia, because it is valuable at price!

The deluxe honeymoon suite was bigger than expected, beautiful, and cozy. Taxis to and from the airport/port were arranged by the property. Location was great and the property was beautiful. Breakfast was convenient and there was a little snack for an aperitivo. Close to Oia with a short walk. The rooms had excellent views and the hotel provided privacy and quiet time. Good value for money.
Felt very relaxed, no complaints.

Heliophos offered everything that was promised at booking... The location in the traditional cave houses offers a unique and nostalgic holiday in a wonderful setting. The proprietress was amazing... warm, genuine, helpful, (patient because she waited up late to let us in when we were delayed). She offers an amazing and chic ambiance which few other places can rival. Breakfast was an assortment of authentic local products and classic Greek fare... IE real yogurt and wonderful backed goods, canned fruits, etc. Santorini offers two ideal settings for rooms... either looking itno the Caldera, or staying in a cave house like Heliophos. Heliophos offers the cave house setting, well maintained and comfortable, with excellent care from the owners. Wonderful sea views, no noise from roads, but an easy walk into Oia for a sunset meal and drinks after dark. The location of Finikia is great for visiting the entire island if you have a rental car or you are willing to use the public bus system. There are also ample opportunities to hike the island, but it is a very hot desert setting.

The owner Sofia is a bubbly and very helpful person. The accommodaton is reasonably priced unlike hotels in Oia and in excellent condition, traditional cave houses in a quiet village, with a great view from the balcony. Absolutely recommend this hotel to any type of traveller as it is just 10 minutes walk from Oia and away from the tourists. It was great to experience a very traditional location and beautiful cave house.
Breakfast is repetitive and basic

I recently stayed in a charming cave hotel near the center of town. The room was clean and spacious, with a range of luxury bath products in the bathroom. The owner was very friendly and helped us book our yacht trips. The location was convenient, with a supermarket nearby and the public bus station within walking distance.
The breakfast provided was limited and not like a usual buffet.

we loved every minute of it, we couldn't have found a nicer place to stay in santorin. the room was beautiful, and we ended up spending a whole day on sofias terrace. fantastic breakfast with homemade jam. the village of finiaki is really close to oia, yet very calm with great views, too and an ancient centre to explore. nice little taverna with great food just next door. very much recommending this place!
