Family trip to Oia

We had an incredible time at Anesti’s place in Oia. The pictures don’t do the views justice! And Anesti and his family were incredibly helpful in carrying our luggage and driving us to and from the airport. Would 10/10 recommend!!

Stunning location

In addition to the stunning location and multiple outdoor spaces, the level of service was the distinguishing feature. Rather than outsource, the owner and his warm family provide the service, including daily housekeeping and restocking the kitchen with everything for a full breakfast, providing transfers, booking dinner reservations and excursions, and preparing and serving a memorable dinner on one of the terraces.

Most iconic Oia cave house

We had the most amazing stay in Oia at this beautiful home. The pictures do not do justice to the views from and the interior of the house. It is in an ideal location of town for shopping and watching the afterglow of sunset from the perfect temperature plunge pool through the famous blue domes. The house itself was very comfortable, extremely clean, and well stocked. Anesti and family were very friendly and responsive. We would love to stay here again!

Three bedroom in Oia, Greece

We had an incredible stay! The three bedroom home was outstanding. It was absolutely immaculate, well stocked with supplies and there is no better location on Santorini! It was magical! The property host was excellent. Any questions we had on transportation or the island or tours were answered immediately. We had a question about the ferries to other islands and he even contacted the ferry boat captain to get us an immediate response. We would HIGHLY recommend this property to others. You will not be disappointed!

Best spot on the island

It really is the best spot on the island. People come far and wide for this very view of Santorini and this house has it all right outside the door: the caldera, the blue domes, the architecture. We didn’t have to go anywhere else on the island; we were already there. Those blue domes are majestic + magic = majestical! Anesti is a very attentive host and will deliver. When he asked if we wanted a private dinner on the patio table, we did not hesitate, and it was totally worth it. Do it. The food was tops!

Amazing

I don't have a bad thing to say about this rental. The ONLY thing to be careful of when booking, there are quite a lot of steps to get to the property, and they are uneven. Not great for someone with problems walking. The host is so much more than a normal host. Recommendations, rides, help with anything you might need on the island. If I could give this place 50 stars out of 10 I would.

This wonderful cave is right next to the iconic Blue Domes. This place is where tourists come to take pictures; you are in front of the iconic blue domes! Tourists and professional photographers lined up bringing their clients -some with flying dresses- to take photos of the iconic Blue Domes. Don’t worry, the patio is blocked off for private residents, so you feel separate from the tourists. I don’t think there is a better property like this with the best view of Santorini!

Amazing views with terrific hosts. We couldn’t have asked for a better location staring out at the sea and blue domes. The hosts were so friendly and checked in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. Anesti took us on a full day tour of the island, beaches, and a winery tour, and was patient while we did a little grocery shopping for a local meal. Could not recommend this place more!!

Five stars – a special experienceIt’s not often you get the chance to experience something truly unique. This was one of those times — and one of those places.Pros:Location: Absolutely remarkable. You’re quite literally looking out at the iconic blue domes — front and center. We captured incredible photos at all times of day, from sunrise to sunset.Host: You couldn’t ask for a kinder, more accommodating host. Friendly, responsive, and genuinely great to interact with.Patio: The outdoor patio was a major highlight. We spent hours relaxing there — it was peaceful, beautiful, and hard to leave.Cons:Instagram crowds: Because of the view, there’s almost always a group of people nearby trying to snap the perfect shot of the blue domes. It comes with the territory, but it’s worth being aware.Low ceilings: Some areas inside have low ceilings — I bumped my head a few times. Taller guests might want to watch out.

Santo Blue Horizons was a dream location, directly overlooking the Blue Domes in Oia. The family-owned residence is well-maintained, and the attention to detail and prompt responses to our questions made our stay very comfortable. We requested pick-up and drop-off service at the ferry port from Anesti. I highly recommend this, as Anesti arranged a porter service to bring the bags to and from the residence. We also paid an additional fee for a Santorini tour from Anesti after check out, which I highly recommend!There is an option to add a home-cooked meal on the terrace. My family was thrilled with this option after a long day of traveling, and the food was excellent. We have a few allergies and preferences in our group, and they were all taken into account. It was one of the best meals that we had in Greece! The residence does have to be accessed by stairs. You do have to go past the tourists waiting to take photos, but we did not mind that small inconvenience because of the beautiful view we got to enjoy every day. My family loved this residence, and we hope to visit again!

Incredible Family Vacation

Santos Blue Horizon is the most iconic cave house in all of Santorini! We had a family of 5 adults celebrating my 70th birthday here for 5 days! Anesti was invaluable from start to finish, months before our arrival. He didn't mind all of us on a group chat on Whatsapp and we scheduled all our activities through him, our host. Anesti's father, Armando, a chef for over 25 years prepared the best meal we had while in Santorini right there in Santos Blue Horizon. There is no better view than this location. Everything is within walking distance of this house! Another surprise was they provided house cleaning and linen change every two days. This house and location is so understated...you have to experience it to understand why everyone in Santorini wants to come here and take pictures...it is simply the best view on the island! Thanks you Anesti, Jenni and Amando for making our vacation so special and comfortable! Yamas

Location and Beauty

Anesti and his family go above and beyond to make your stay memorable and relaxing! From the transportation help at the ferry and airport, to the amazing meal and relaxing massages- WOW, they do it all. We were also referred to a friend of Anesti’s who took us on a boat ride all over the caldera to snorkel, swim in hot springs, tour the islands and learn about the geography of the volcanic area. Lastly we watched the sunset on a magical trip. What a gift and trip of a lifetime!

Incredible Property

I could not possibly express how wonderful this property is. My wife and I sat on the balcony and were looking around and are both convinced that this was THE best location in all of Santorini. The inside of the unit was extremely clean and comfortable. The unit is beyond the public access areas for viewing of the Blue Dome Church and is where the professional photographers try and bring their clients for pictures. The pool is a great place to sit and enjoy the view with a glass on wine. The Air Conditioning is cold and the bedding was extremely comfortable. The communication with the owners was easy and they were extremely attentive and accommodating. The only thing we regret is not having more time to stay!

Three friends traveled to Santorini after departing Athens. Santo Blue Horizon was exactly as advertised. It is FABULOUS! Location was perfect and you could not have a better view. The house construction was amazing, no detail left out. Very clean with all of the amenities described and MORE. THE BEST PART OF THIS RENTAL IS THE HOSTS, Anesti and is family go above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Best place I’ve ever rented and I’ve rented many on Vrbo.

Not only was the property itself, spectacular, Anesti and his family went above, and beyond to make sure that each member of our party was picked up from the airport, the space was cleaned daily, and even supplied a baby crib for us.

Absolutely Amazing in Every way!

Anasti and his family made our stay so wonderful! I don't know where to start. I spent a lot of time looking for a VRBO on Santorini and finally settled on this one because of the excellent reviews. I was not disappointed! We have rented homes all over the world, and our experience with this home and Anasti has probably been the best. First off, the home itself is very beautiful. Located right next to the 3 Blue Domes where everyone comes to take pictures. The views are spectacular! You are living right next to a world icon. Anesti and his family were amazing! He met us at the airport and took us to the home. He also provided a 5-hour island tour for us the next day. Anesti booked a private sunset cruise and arranged a rent-a-car. We parked each night at the car rental place itself since parking is a challenge in Oia. Anesti's wife Jenny, gave us massages at the home. Jenny and Anesti's father cooked a 5-course dinner for us on the beautiful deck of the home as the sun went down. It was an absolutely excellent meal and one of the highlights of the trip. They also came in 3 times during the week to clean the home. Lastly, they helped carry our luggage back up the stairs (no easy task) to our car before leaving. The airport, pick-up, island tour, massages, and special meal all had additional costs, as would be expected, but they were very reasonable and well worth it. Such a great experience!

Anesti’s dad cooking was so delicious and I would recommend everyone to have in house dinning on the terrace overlooking the blue dome and Aegean Sea.

Amazing OIA

Anesti & his family were the warmest most wonderful people. The property was just as described and the view was magnificent. They even left breakfast goodies for us to enjoy! They made check in so easy & made us feel like family. The place was magical - every other tourist lined up to take their photos (including many of the flying dress ...) right next to our home for a few days - it's iconic. Definitely do the dinner - it was so special & we will remember forever. Hope to be back - book this place- the kids loved it too. It was quaint, beautiful, quintessential Oia. You can walk to everything & Anesti booked our sailing cruise too - enjoy enjoy enjoy!

This place is no joke - quite possibly the best location and place in all of Santorini let alone Oia! The iconic setting and view is amazing. The place is perfect in every way. We were family of 5. We enjoyed morning coffee outside on the deck and wine on the balcony. The host Anesti is the perfect tour guide. Definitely have him arrange the chef dinner at your place- also use the benefit of him to book your ideas. He also had connections to get us into a sought after Michelin star restaurant. Also - hire him for pick up and return to airport ( definitely a huge help with the luggage with all the stairs to climb!). Can’t wait to stay there again !
