Amazing place with an incredible view! It was so spacious and we loved having 2 bathrooms. The staff was so kind and helped my elderly mom and mother in law go up and down the stairs. There are a lot of stairs but totally worth it!

Aris Caves was unbelievably gorgeous. We loved our stay! Our unit was beautiful, clean, quiet and comforting. We had our own balcony area with an amazing view. It’s right in the middle of Oia close to everything. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. Christina was extremely helpful and supportive throughout our trip. It was a spectacular vacation!

This was my second stay at Aris Caves. Beautiful apartments right in the centre of Oia town but nice and quiet down the caldera away from the noise. Amazing views from your own terrace where you can sit and relax. Staff all very welcoming and helpful. I would stay again if I return to Santorini.

The hotel was amazing. The jacuzzi on the outdoor deck with the incredible view was a highlight. Christina and the entire team were outstanding. Aris Caves is also perfectly located in Oia, everything is so close. We went to dinner at nearby Flora for our daughter’s 16th birthday and it was excellent. Could not recommend more highly!

This property is beautiful!! Walk right out of your room and see the water. Also located in the perfect location in Oia. Would highly highly recommend this hotel. The property was a highlight of our time in Greece. There was a little hot tub and also chairs to lounge in as well. The common space is also beautiful. Can’t say enough good things!! Oh and they were so accommodating both Christina and Alex were amazing and gave us recommendations and set us up with rides. STAY HERE!!!

Beautiful property. The view was amazing. Room was very cool- spacious, clean. We were welcomed and catered to.. including delicious, homemade snacks when we arrived. Only thing to point out is that it is located down several steps-- totally fine for my teenagers and me... but may be an issue for people with mobility issues. It was everything we could have dreamed of for our Santorini vacation!!

8/10 Very good

We absolutely loved our stay at Aris Caves. Christina was an incredible host. She arranged taxis for us, got us anything we needed during our stay, and answered any questions we had. The facilities are extremely clean and the air conditioner worked great. The location of this property is perfect with shopping and restaurants close by. The view is incredible! There is not one negative thing I could think of about this property. You will not regret booking at Aris Caves.

The weather was terrible during our stay… but our suite was a comfortable, serene haven. Perfect for dining in, card playing and relaxing. Everything about the room was upscale: decor, luxurious bedding and bathrooms. When the fog lifted the view from our private deck was simply stunning. Christina was a fantastic hostess, and the porter service was a welcome addition- considering the 110 stairs from the main road to our room. Well worth the hike.

We came to Aris caves for our honeymoon, we booked the room with the biggest patio (#8) it was well worth the money, a view we will never forget. The room was beautiful, hot tub amazing, views to die for, and quiet and private. Christina the host was amazing, very helpful and insightful. Would definitely recommend taking up the hotels suggestion for transportation, it is not easy to find without guidance. Warning there are a lot of stairs, but totally worth it if you can manage them. Plenty of places to eat near by. We highly recommend this hotel, hoping to be back one day to celebrate an anniversary :)

What a lovely place and stay. We were treated like royalty, with gifts, and concierge service. We were greeted by the owners, and literally treated like family. Highly recommend Aris Caves. We'd been looking at this property for years, and it did not disappoint. Perfect location, beautiful hotel, stunning views. I cant say enough about our experience. Staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome, and that they did. They were extremely knowledgeable about excursions, restaurants, Greek culture and history. Whether you're on your honeymoon, or just looking to get away for while, and/ "reconnect" with your partner, this is your spot. Exactly what we were looking for, just to hit the "reset" button. I can't thank them enough for this experience. I can only hope that we're able to make it back someday ❤️

Aris Caves is located in the center of the Dome area with easily access to shops, restaurants, churches and everything that comes to mind. I first had a second thought when I booked the Spiti room (#4) as the room isn't a waterfront room. However the common waterfront breathtaking terrace is two steps out from the room. The room is very beautiful and spacious with all amenities that you need. Christina is an excellent host, very responsive and very helpful. We felt so welcome and enjoyed staying every minutes of the stay. This villa is my favorite place in the world, I can't express enough how much I highly recommend. Only information for seniors is that the villa is about 40 steps down from the main strip of Oia, means 40 or more steps to go up to the main strip.
