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!

Amazing stay in cave

Loved the Aris Caves room we had and the staff. Everyone was so nice and accommodating. The room with private hot tub was huge and had everything we needed. The little touches such as homemade bread, wine etc was very special. The Porter who helped with our luggage was very much needed and appreciated. Thank you to Christina and her staff.

Great location: View of the caldera right outside your door, cave-style room/s, jacuzzi to soothe the body after hiking (or going up & down flights of stairs), centrally located in Oia yet offers great privacy. Christina (& Eva) were very helpful in giving info regarding bus sched, restaurants, and map of the town of Oia. Just some (stair) steps away from shops, restaurants, grocery, bus terminal, blue domes, etc. Rooms, balcony w/ jacuzzi are cleaned daily. We truly enjoyed our stay here. Thank you very much!

The rooms is perfect! And the common spaces have gorgeous views! We loved having our coffee at our little patio table and then spending the evenings on the lounge chairs overlooking the caldera. Christina was incredibly helpful! Helped us get rides to/from the airport and schedule the porter to help with our bags. She made us feel so special and gave us a bottle of local wine, cupcakes from her sisters bakery, and olive oil from her family's orchard! She is so friendly and provides great directions and ideas on where to eat and swim and enjoy. We spent our honeymoon here and loved every minute!

This is easily one of the most beautiful and best run places in Santorini. The views are amazing. The rooms are immaculate. And Christina who runs it is incredible. Helping answer questions before we came. Set up transportation. Rental cars. Everything. This is the place to go in Oia. Right in center. We stayed in Patari suite which was spacious enough for 6. We had a kitchen and giant porch overlooking Caldera with spa tub. We did not want to leave.

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.

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 ❤️

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!!!
