I have just returned from my thrid trip to Aris Caves in Santorini. The place is amazing, the rooms immaculate and Aris and Christa are just beyond words lovely. We had a fantastic room with amazing views and the best place in the world to have breakfast. We had a great trip out on a catamaran and a lovely time... More

We stayed at Aris caves last year and went back again this May and once again we just loved it and will go again and again. Some of my friends went too this May and were just in shock by the beauty of this place. The terrace has the most beautiful view of the caldera, the six rooms are so... More

We had such an incredible time in Santorini for our honeymoon staying at Aris Caves. Christa went above and beyond anything we could have asked. She recommended restaurants, wineries, boat tours and other day trips. She was such an amazing host and made everything so easy and smooth for us. We couldn't have asked for anything else.

This was our first visit to Greece. We chose Aris Caves due to the reviews and were not disappointed. This is not a hotel but seven or so separate rooms with terraces. We stayed in La Folia which is a wonderful double room with a fabulous view over the Caldera from a spacious terrace. It has a useful kitchen and... More

Unfortunately we left the "hotel" with a pretty bad feeling of the owner. I was with my family in early spring we where in two different rooms and probably we were the only one in the hotel. So she focus all the attention on us, but in a very annoying way... Here many examples ...1) She wanted to take advantage... More

My husband and I chose to celebrate our 20th anniversary at Aris Caves in Oia, Santorini in October, 2012. We loved the location (with it's added cardio-vascular benefits - more on that below), and the views from every room and balcony were postcard-perfect. Our suite (Suite Patari) was absolutely beautiful, with a private balcony over-looking the caldera, decorated with terra... More

If you're looking for a 5 star resort with swimming pool then this isn't it. A rustic, quaint place nestled in the cliffs of Oia, Santorini, run by the indomitable and matronly Crista, this is a taste of how the locals live, and it's brilliant. On arrival you'll get a complete rundown from Crista of the place and the island... More

We had a wonderful stay at Aris Caves at the start of April. Christa and Aris were wonderful hosts - they provided great information about the island and what was open (we were slightly early for the season). We stayed in 'Folia' which had amazing views and a lovely little terrace area. Would recommend doing the sunset Catamaran trip, hike... More

Aris caves is an amazing once in a lifetime accommodation. There are 6 caves (rooms), each equipped with kitchenette, bathroom and upon arrival christa had thoughtfully bought us cake, milk and wine! The caves are awesome, cool in summer and warm in winter! Each room comes with an uninterrupted view of the ocean. I can guarantee you will be taken... More

I have to say visiting Greece has never been more delightful! The location of the hotel is just perfect, nr.1 for a direct sunset view, close to Oia's main street where all the restaurants and shops are located. Rent a car for at least one day, stop by the reception before heading out and the receptionist will tell you everything... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Literally, like an eagle’s nest hanging in the cliff of the island, Aris Caves is located only a few minutes down from the center of the lovely village of Oia. Yet the placing of the houses is configured like an amphitheatre, tranquil and ideal to relax, to dream and to enjoy the breathtaking view over the Santorini Caldera, the volcano Nea Kameni and the deep blue Aegean Sea.Spread over 4 levels are 6 self-catering, fully equipped and separate studios, apartments and a suite, each with kitchenette, shower/toilet, air conditioning, internet and its own terrace. The large terrace in the center of Aris Caves is open to all guests and offers probably one of the best views in Oia. ... more   less
