Very clean. Unique. Parking was a bit difficult. The stairs to the pool were a bit difficult. Property manager was wonderful, helpful and wet the extra mile. We were all very impressed

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely cave house style villa! The house was perfect for the 6 of us, the kitchen was simple, efficient, clean, and well equipped, and the bathrooms were modern, clean and easy to use! The house is located in Exo Gonia which is a nice, quiet area with beautiful views, high up near the midddle of the island. We walked to nearby Pyrgos for dinner but needed a driver or car to visit the rest of the island. We knew this and planned for it in advance. Our host Sarah was very helpful and arranged for a reliable pick up and drop off to and from the port. Kimi was sweet and friendly and met us at the house to check in and show us around.The seating areas on both levels were comfortable for all of us. The upper deck offered a wonderful clean, shallow pool that was perfect for cooling off on a hot day, and a breathtaking view of a blue domed church overlooking Exo Gonia and Kamari beach! The overall vibe of the house was truly a unique experience. The house is updated but built into the slope of the hill so it only has 2 windows but that allows it to stay naturally cool during the hot summer. AC is also available in the rooms if needed. The stairs to the upper level are steep, but a handrail is available so take your time and use caution. The climb is well worth the effort for the spectacular view at the top! An added bonus was the multiple adorable, friendly cats that stayed close to the property. Overall 10/10 experience! Thank you Sarah!

Our family (3 girls-11, 9, and 3) loved our stay here. The authentic cave house experience with the sweeping views and plunge pool were great. We walked to Pyrgos from the house as well as enjoyed a couple lovely meals locally at Mexitaxi Mas. We took our car all over the island each day, and our girls loved ending the day in the pool with the blue dome view. The Internet was strong, and there were a solid amount of beach and bath towels. We will very much miss waking up to that view and would not hesitate to book again. Note that it is a 5-minute or so walk uphill to the house from the parking area, and the steps to the terrace are steep with a rope railing on the wall. This didn’t bother us but those with younger kids or less mobility could have issues.
