About this property
Bioclimatic Cave House - Vothonas traditional village
A traditional cave house with 2 bedrooms in the traditional village of Vothonas. The village is situated in the centre of the island about 3 klm from the nearest beach, 2 klm from the airport / 8 klm from the port and 4 klm from the capital of the Island, Fira Town. Minimal decoration with traditional touches, it has a fully equipped kitchen with fridge, washing machine, dish washer, oven, microwave, coffee maker, toaster etc. It has 1 bathroom, a living room with a sofa and a built-in seating area and a dining table. There is the choice of the sofa or an extra single bed for the 5th person that can be place either in the master bedroom or in the living room. It is also equipped with hairdryer, iron and iron board, tv with dvd player. It has a veranda with table and chairs and a small private terrace with village view. Nearest public parking area is 80 meters away. Access to the house is only on foot as you need to walk through the narrow streets of the village.   Cave houses are characterized by their ability to preserve a stable interior temperature throughout the year (bio-climatic).
The property is ideal for relaxed holidays for serenity-seekers and peaceful memorable moments, in one of the most popular holiday destinations in the world. It combines the unique quietness of an isolated Greek village, only a few minutes drive from the buzz of the well-known Santorinian towns, full of life and energy.
Either you are planning a family holiday or an escape-trip for two or even a get-away with good friends, the all-time classic cave house combining the comforts of a modern apartment, will definitely make your holidays unforgettable.
Since it is up in the village, a private transport mean is necessary, either a vehicle or a motorcycle.
In less than 10-minute walking, you may find one of Santorini's famous steak house restaurant 'KRITIKOS' and the Koutsogiannopoulos winery in another 5-minute walk.
A ten-minute drive will take you either to a family-oriented beach 'Monolithos' or driving to the opposite side the famous 'Kamari' beach with black sand and many restaurants, beach front bars and tourist shops.

Interaction with guests
We respect your right to privacy so we won't bother or visit you unless you ask us to :)
If you need anything we are always one message or phone call away.
We appreciate all kinds of feedback but please try to make it during your stay so I have a chance to make up for it if necessary.
Other things to note:
In Santorini and most Greek islands we don't have street names or addresses. Please don’t ask us for a specific address. There are a few addresses that are automatically given to locations but those stand for everyone, they are not specific.

It is important to arrange your arrival to the house in advance so we minimise the waiting time for checking in.
Let us help you book a transfer, your tours or a rental car so deal with the lack of address situation instead of you :)
