Amazing! Every single thing was fantastic, from the beautifully appointed room, the amenities, spectacular views, and most importantly, to Catherine, who was positively the best hostess I’ve ever encountered. She was on top of everything, very communicative, attentive, and pro-active in helping to curate a beautiful itinerary once we arrived. Can’t wait to come back!
Nothing - it was superb.

Catherine was a fantastic host. The cave was as pictured and very spacious. Breakfast delivered every morning was an unexpected delight. We really loved the hot tub and extraordinary views.
The parking nearby was pretty cramped. Especially considering it was out of season. Would advise people not to rent a car if they can avoid it.
Although not a problem for us, the steps to the cave were steep (as most would expect), so it may not be suitable for all.

Catherine was super accommodating and met us at the property at 1:30am when our flight landed with a porter to help us carry all of our bags. The room was in a great location - close to the Oia shops but off the beaten path enough that it was secluded and private. The place was very clean and well decorated. Catherine came back to the apartment the next morning to make us dinner reservations (at a great restaurant!) and help give us recommendations for the rest of the trip.

Loved the location. It was our first trip to Oia and we were blown away by the views from the villa.
Catherine is an amazing hostess. She was at hand to meet us where the taxi dropped us off. She had a porter with her as well (and we did not realise how important the porter is until we went down the steps for about a 100 metres to our villa) that is included in the price.
Catherine not only checked us in and explained the villa, she also made restaurant bookings and arranged transport for us as required.
From our perspective, the villa is great and Catherine's warm welcome and assistance throughout our stay at Santorini made it an excellent choice.
My wife and I are both foodies. For a classy place like the Blue Art Caves, the food (if it is supplied) needs to be at par with the place.
From our perspective, we would have been happy (or happier) to not have had our breakfast at the villa. The food is served efficiently but, it needs to be classier.
As an analogy, it seems that we are flying first class and have been served the economy class food. Nothing wrong with the food, it just doesn't match up to the place.

The host, Catherine, is very nice and helpful. Basically she looks after you once you landed Santorini. Of course the house (cave) and the view are spectacular. Catherine made it to another level. It is a 11/10.

A beautiful, clean, modern yet classic Santorini cave apartment.
Amazing terrace with panoramic views. Interesting solution for the location of the jacuzzi. The walk to the city up the stairs is quite challenging, but who doesn't like a challenge? We were very satisfied here. The only complaint is that the food service could have been handled a little better here. Overall, we were very satisfied.

Blue art cave it's an amazing accommodation!
It's in the heart of Oia, but thanks to the wonderful position it isn't noisy and windy.
It's just a quiet place where to recharge your soul.
The view is stunning, you could just on the terrace and admire it.
We had the cave with internal bathtub. You have privacy and still the view from the window.
Breakfast and dinner are fabulous and you will feel full along☺️ .
I think it was one of the best dinner we had in Santorini. Remember that restaurants there might be quite expensive.
Catherine has helped us a lot also after we left our cave.
She is very nice and helpful. She really wants to spoil and cuddle her customers.
We have would like to stay longer.

Our host, Catherine, was amazing! She helped us with planning our itinerary while in Santorini - from every question I had from the moment of booking, until our stay at her home, she helped answer everything. She went all out and provided tons of information and advice - she even helped us find better options for custom experiences like a private cooking class, best winery experience, and private boat tour and helped make reservations at restaurants with the perfect seating reserved for us. The views were stunning and the residence itself was extremely well decorated and comfy. Like how most reviews mentioned, the steps to and from the villa provided us plenty of exercise...lol. So if you're someone that has knee/leg issues, just know that. Otherwise, We would definitely revisit. We loved Catherine and we highly recommend staying at her home when visiting Santorini!

The place is very well appointed and the host was extremely helpful. Great location and breathtaking view. excellent privacy.
All though the location is excellent, privacy has a small price. The home is located low in the cliff face and there are quite a number of steps to deal with.

Our stay at Blue Art Caves was wonderful. We stayed in the Starry Sky suite - what a unique place! It is new so everything was pristine. The suite was very spacious, sparkling clean, and had all the amenities - Nespresso machine, water kettle, refrigerator, dishes, smart TV and more. Also, you get breakfast and dinner (even wine) delivered to your room everyday! We enjoyed sitting outside facing the caldera and having our meals. Don't be surprised if some friendly cats pay you a visit. They are the real locals of Santorini I think. Finally, I have to shout out to Katerina. She is an amazing host and was incredibly helpful with everything we needed. Make sure you ask her for recommendations on activities.
There was nothing we didn't like but there are a few things to know before you book. Your room here will have beautiful and sweeping caldera views. Just know that you don't see the sunset from your room. However, it's just a 5 minute walk to the most famous sunset watching spot.

Amazing location. Catherine helped us with booking restaurants and made sure there were always taxi’s available (which I hear can be quite hard to get hold of in Santorini)

The "room" was more like an apartment and is just stunning. We also really liked the privacy, which is hard to find in Oia. The views were spectacular, the breakfast AND DINNER were both tasty and quite big. Catherine, the host, made our stay even more enjoyable. She communicated with us even before our arrival, welcomed us personally in Oia and took the time to share hidden gems with us. She was available all the time during our stay and went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. Thank you, Catherine!
Nothing really! Everything was superb!

Catherine, the host, was very friendly and helpful. She provided a lot of informations regarding the island and the different activities, made some bookings for us (boat, restaurant..) and was always available. The view is amazing, the room is very confortable. Breakfast was delivered every morning, and cleaning was made after 11am (unless asked otherwise). I recommend it.

Our stay was so beautiful at Blue Art Caves. The place was recommended to us by a couple we met in Santorini that had stayed there the night previous. Our host, Catherine, could not have gone anymore out of her way to ensure we were as comfortable as possible. She organised for us restaurant bookings, vehicle rentals and luggage storage. The breakfast and dinner served in the accommodation was lovely.
The apartment was very clean and comfortable and the views of the Caldera were amazing from the accommodation.
We will be recommending this accommodation to family and friends who travel to Santorini.

The location of this Cave Villa was absolutely stunning - in the Centre of Oia with a Perfect view. Our host Catherine was the best! We travel a lot and never had such a lovely and caring host before. She was so helpful, organized trips for us, transfers and so on. She came around whenever she was needed. We will definitely come back.
There was nothing else we could have asked for.

The property was middle of Oia best place to stay. Spacious, super clean. Catherine was amazing. Set up a lot of our activities including the catamaran tour, rental car, reservations. Easy to get in touch with. Breakfast and dinner were ok but delivered to your door. Absolutely amazing views.
The walk down was a lot but it kept us away from a lot of tourist that came there for pictures. The one big thing is the bed was very very very uncomfortable. It felt like just straight springs. But I feel like that’s an easy change on the property side. The stary caves had a pool inside which opens a window to the view. I didn’t use it seemed too small for a couple. Lastly, it smelled slightly bc it was humid in there bc of the pool. There was a dehumidifier but was off bc it was full. Tried to empty it but had no idea how to work it.

The view is great the room is big and clean. Nicely decorated. Host is very friendly and helpful! High end feel. Easily one of the nicest hotels in Oia.
It’s quite a walk up and down...from the main pedestrian walkway. But the plus side of that is privacy! The shower was handheld and not fixed above head.

Wow...what a great property for our 30th wedding anniversary and our first time to Greece! The view sitting on the front porch overlooking the water is amazing. This villa sits just below the main walking path through the village with wonderful stores and places to eat. The unit has been completely remodeled and has everything needed for a romantic stay. And Catherine will take care of everything you need -- tours, sailing, restaurants, etc. She was super responsive and made our stay memorable. And the people of Santorini were so nice and accomdating. All in all the best vacation we've ever had. We will return.
The villa is bulit into a cliff overlooking the ocean which is great for scenery but it can be tiring walking up and down the path from the main street to the villa. We got used to it pretty quickly but it can be a trek.

The view was absolutely amazing. The suite was spectacular with a hot tub that has ocean views. Breakfast and dinner delivery was so very nice touch. Our host Catherine did more than any other host we’ve ever had to make sure we had what we needed, to include booking taxis and tours.
Excellent experience!
We loved all of it. No downsides!
