Featuring a terrace with Caldera Sea views, this white washed cave house features a Cycladic architecture and comes with a wrought iron double bed, 2 traditional style built in twin beds, a long traditional sofa bed, rocking armchair, sun beds, a satellite, flat screen TV and a fully equipped kitchenette. Free WiFi is available in all areas.

There is one master bedroom with a double bed with a canopy.

Our top-mattresses are made of combinations of natural rubber, seaweed, goose down, virgin wool, pure cotton and eucalyptus. Seaweed emits iodine to soothe respiration and eucalyptus lends its seductive fragrance. All the materials together, unified, interact and create ideal sleeping conditions. They “embrace” the body, ensuring that even the smallest curve is fully supported. Linen are silk/cotton and towels are of the best Egyptian cotton.

In the living area there are two traditional style built in twin beds for lounging or for extra guests. For privacy the master bedroom is separated from the living area by a doorway and three windows. It also provides a dining table and an extra long sofa for relaxing. There is additionally a small adjacent room to the master bedroom. There is an indoor tiled bathroom with a shower and a second outdoor bathroom with a shower as well. The fully equipped kitchen faces the beautiful Aegean sea. Outside, the spacious private terrace provides the stage for unencumbered relaxation staring the amazing landscape of the Caldera.

Located on the cliff side of the Caldera, the panoramic views from its patio are breathtaking, providing a perfect place to dine or simply relax and take in the beauty. Arrange for a romantic meal and renew your love vows with your other half enjoying the magnificent view to the Caldera! If you make -literally- 4 steps from the house you can see a beautiful little church, St Nicolas, built on a tiny island at Amoudi. You can swim and sunbathe there.
The house setting is unique and idyllic. Every minute of the day or night the house provides a magnificent view. It offers a panoramic view to one of the most spectacular sunrises in Greece. In the evening relax with the fabulous view of the Caldera together with a glass of Vinsanto. At night you will enjoy lying on the cushions on the terrace under the sparkling stars and also view the lights of the other cities on the top edge of the Caldera. This is the best way to end your day.
Indoors, the master bedroom and the living/dining room with the beautifully decorated walls, the fully equipped kitchen and the mosaic tiles in the bathroom will make your stay an unforgettable experience. Guests enjoy the unobstructed views of the Caldera and the famous Oia’s sunset or sunsrise from the cave house’s patio. You will enjoy breakfast/dinner at the romantic private veranda with panoramic view to the Caldera, the blue sea, the cities of Imerovigli, Firostefani, Fira, Pyrgos and “Athinios” port on the edge of the Caldera, as well as the volcano, Palia and Nea Kammeni and the island of Thirassia.

It is only 2 minutes walking distance from shops, restaurants, market, galleries, bus & taxi terminal and the Castle which is the famous “Sunset Point” of Greece. Various cafés, restaurants, the Naval Museum, and Lounge Cafe Pool Bars with sunset view are located one minute walking distance, as is the Castle, a famous sunset viewing spot.

Oia is absolutely unique place in the world where you are feeling yourself like in fairy tale
Just imagine, you wake up in Paradise, between the boundless sea turning into a horizon with sleeping islands resembling the backs of huge fish in front of your house, the rays of the rising sun cast bizarre shadows from a small belfry and sky blue light fills all of you, caught between the sea and sky in a majestic silence, where, like in fabulous dreams, small white houses nestled on a rocky slope. If people lived in nests - they would live on Santorini... As for property - it’s an example of harmony of style, place, colour and spirit of Oia. Everything like mentioned on the web page, but much better because of very kind care of Maria - owner and spiritual apartment keeper and Sunil - her assistant, who are ready to help you whatever and whenever you need. Just try to stay in Blue Cave once, you will be looking to come back again, treasuring in your memories the feeling you have experienced there. Will definitely recommend!

A dream vacation..........
I highly recommend the Blue & White house! We had a wonderful stay there.....it's bright, fresh, clean and well appointed! The views are spectacular both by day and by night and the location is central to all the restaurants and shopping. A truly unique and enjoyable experience to stay in a 'cave'. DJS Ontario, Canada

Amazing stay
Rarely does a place meet expectations, but this house not only met but exceeded all of them! Maria was an excellent host who was always available. We came in on the ferry and our ride was waiting for us. We were met in Oia by Daniel who was awesome and welcoming. The house itself was even better than the pictures. We had a very early departure and Daniel was there to take our luggage up to the cab with a smile on his face. One of us had a very heavy bag, and added to the other two it couldn’t have been easy for him, but he did it with a smile. The house is in a great location, with beautiful views. One complaint I will make is with the description of the house. It talks about the sunset view which is amazing, but what it fails to mention is the Sunrise view. Watching the sun come up over the Caldera was one of the highlights of my trip. We were there the first week in March, and it was amazing! Centrally located to great restaurants, and shops. I highly recommend staying here.

Gorgeous view and amazing host
Amazing view and Maria was great and responded quickly to any questions. Our place was stocked with food and wine which was way above and beyond. It is close to everything yet private and you are able to relax. Transportation was arranged for us as well as our luggage taken down and brought back up. We can't wait to go back!

Absolutely Incredible!
First of all the location is absolutely THE BEST. Close to everything but comfortably seperated from the crowds to give you your own patio privacy. Place has everything you could need. Maria is the best representative that Greece has for hospitality and warm welcomes. She took care of our transfers and the transport of luggage as well as recommendations. Our place was stocked with food and wine which was way above and beyond the call. I can't say enough good things about Paradise Blue and White Cave house and Maria. I can't wait to plan a trip back.

Why they chose this property

The Blue & White House was built sometime in the late 1800s. It was a sailor's lowly house, just like most cave houses. Sometime in the 1970s it was bought by the owners' maternal grandfather.

Antonis Dakoronias, born in Santorini in 1918, was a seaman himself. He spent 37 years at the sea, most of them as a captain, commanding commercial vessels around the world, before nestling again in Oia. He became president of Oia's local council and he founded the Maritime Museum of Oia (a must-see place). His daughter inherited the Blue & White House in the 1990s.

The owner: I first set foot in Santorini in 1976 and have revisited most years since then. But since the mid-90s, this house has been my exclusive accommodation point in Santorini. Practically every summer I return to this house and pay homage to this most beautiful village in this most sensational island. In 2000 I performed a full restoration of the house to its current excellent state. I am proud of my ancestral links to Oia and a privileged owner of this classic, cliff-hanging cave house. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have been enjoying it for almost 20 years.
