I loved this property it was a dream..beautiful perfect location the only thing I didn’t like was that we had to wait almos 2 hours to get the room because they wouldn’t answer the phone so we had to call Expedia to see what was going on and they took a while to get a hold of someone,they don’t have a front desk so that’s a bit tricky

This hotel was the worst in my life. The view was nice at least. But the room door is so fragile and shaking all night, we couldn’t sleep at all. We don’t recommend if you find a real hotel that you can sleep.

Unique Cave Like Stay / Blue Dome Churches!
there's a reason why this is called "Oia View". you're really like right in from of two blue dome churches. ilso its very convenient; its like a few steps off the Main Street of Oia. a bit tricky to get the luggage from point A to point B, but the hotel staff does get to this. but really - all these cliff hotels are that way. we recommend this place, really unique.

It was a great place to stay! The views were amazing and the room was nice. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. This is the best place to stay in Oia. It is right in the middle of everything and a very easy walk to restaurants and shopping. The room is clean and has everything you need and the BEST view.

Can't get better than this in terms of location and view . Beautiful room fully furbished with nespresso machine, bathrobe, and everything you need - including a bottle of wine chilling in the fridge. We got the room with the plunge pool and im so glad we did - we used it often and couldnt get enough of the views. We travelled in March which was nice to soak in the hot tub while the air was a bit cool. Thanos, the property manager, was incredibly courteous, attentive and gave is fabulous advice on things to do and where to eat during off season.

Once-in-a-Lifetime View
We stayed here as part of my husband's 45th birthday trip to Greece. It was a splurge that I felt was worth it for the once-in-a-lifetime view and unique cave room experience, and I wasn't wrong. The room, pool, and view were all better than I expected. We really appreciated the port transfer they arranged for an extra fee, because the port is madness, and the help with our luggage. We stayed in the largest room that comes with the largest pool because it was the only one available for our dates (which worked out nicely). The room was so nicely decorated with cute little touches such as a record player and books, and plenty of amenities (hair dryer, slippers, robes, pool towels, fridge, iron, air-conditioning, etc). Check out the Sophia Suites website if you want to see the differences in the rooms to make sure you know which one you're booking (I ultimately booked with the Hotels website due to their rewards program). The balcony is spacious with a sofa, patio table and chairs, hammock, pool that is larger than I expected, and that VIEW! It's too bad they don't have a kitchen, but that's to be expected with a cave hotel that only has 3 suites. There's a restaurant directly above it, and we were given other restaurant recommendations. Also keep in mind, they don't have a reception for the same reason, but someone will meet you there to check you in and give you useful information. You can reach them anytime, if needed. I have already been telling people about this place.

Amazing blue domes view, centrally located in Oia
The view that you would never get tired of, all in the comfort of your room, especially in the warm, summer heat. Location is tops, centrally located between the windmills and the main shopping street where the action is, with the shops and the restaurants just outside your very quiet room. Accessibility to attractions a big plus to exploring the sights in the early morning before the crowd comes in. Nonetheless, the room could do with more luxury comforts in terms of the decor... though there's a fridge, coffee maker, ironing board in the room.

Location, location, location. Hands down one of the best views you can have when staying in Oia and super close to the centre of everything in town. We decided between other options (bigger and nicer looking rooms) vs this but chose this for the location and we are so happy that we did. Tourists line up outside your gate to take photos of the view that you have unlimited access to. Slight quirk in that the hotel only has 3 villas and does not have a reception, but this is overcome by Marilena who is available on WhatsApp to attend to your needs. Would also recommend trying sister hotel Sophia Suites at the end of your stay - they offer free transfers to make it easy. Great sunset views from afar with the sun setting over Oia.

This hotel offered none of the amenities advertised on their site. Additionally, despite agreeing to a refund after having to leave suddenly due to an unforeseen crisis, the owner was unwilling to work with us. The area is beautiful and there are many places to choose from.

Th host melirina was super nice and responsive and the location is great. However the amenity is terrible. No pool. The plunge pool isn’t a pool at all but a hot tub. In addition, not sure how they scheduled the water cycling of the hot tub. It was super loud at night throughout as if someone was in the tub splashing the water. We couldn’t sleep at all due to the noise. In addition, you can throw anything even toilet paper into the toilet as the water pressure was so low that the hotel was afraid the toilet got clogged and thus asking all guests not throw toilet paper into the toilet but trash can?? That’s not what I would have expected from a 4.5 star hotel. Finally the room was much smaller than what photos depicted. Overall not worth the price at all.

Great place but need a new manager
It was a a very nice room that we got to stay at. The view is unbeatable if you want pictures next to the domes without having to worry about photobombers. Everything was nicely decorated and very clean. Even though it was right under a busy restaurant, the noise wasn’t too bad at all. The only negative is customer service. The woman who manages Sophia Oía View was terrible. Showed up late for our check out. Didn’t send anyone down to help us bring the luggage from our current hotel in Oía over to this place. She was rude also. I asked her to help us organize a ride on our checkout day to take us to our next hotel and her response was “there’s no free ride here sweetie” sigh* I didn’t even ask anything for free in the first place. Then she said she would give us a call once she completes scheduling it. She never gave us a call. Instead she called us twice mistakenly confused us with the other guests at Sophia Oía View.

The location is excellent at Sophia Oil View! right on the Caldera and you can see the blue domes right from your room. Marilena was there for check in and explained many different excursions as well as answered any questions if needed. Each room has its own terrace and pool and it's just a nice area to relax after exploring for the day. Will definitely be back!

I can tell you that this hotel is located at the best area where you can travel in Oia. Considering hot weather, you will get to know how important this is in Oia. Also, the room I stayed has a swimming pool which was really cool.
