    Calm and tranquil space. Situated perfectly away but near the hustle and bustle of Oia. An attentively styled apartment, mixing modern and traditional Greek tastes. Very comfortable and cosy, cool and sophisticated. Great hosts. Hard to find a better place in Oia.

    Storage was a little limited in the bedrooms, but we managed...roof terrace only had 1 working deck chair but had other seating arrangements, could make a little more of the space.

    Amazing stay lovely and clean and spacious. Central location with sea views and had everything we needed hosts Constantino and Faye were around most days checking in and offering help for trips and restaurants and organizing excursions they are super helpful and responsive.. We used them for the collection and departure transfers all went very smoothly. 5 Minutes from all the main attractions would recommend the restaurant directly over the road food was excellent and affordable and good sunset views. Supermarket around the corner. We used the terrace a lot which was great to chill and read and watch the world go by. Really great house and location.

    We loved everything about this property. I would highly recommend it. The place was very clean and in a great location. The host met us upon our arrival with the keys and explained everything about the area, places to eat, and things to experience. He kept in constant contact with us throughout our stay.

    Everything was perfect! We had the perfect experience thanks to the house and the landloard. Who helped us with a absolutely everything. This house is really worth the money. The house was spacious and perfect for a big family, it had a beautiful view of the ocean and the village. We had breakfast everything morning in the cute terass. The house was close to everything thing but still not among all the turists. So we had some privacy.

    Kalyva is a gem in the heart of Oia. It is THE place to stay if you want a perfect experience of Oia. It is impeccably clean and tastefully furnished to provide every guest a most comfortable and safe stay. Konstantino and Faye personally attended to all our needs and would thoughtfully check on us from time to time. Communication was smooth and we really appreciate their kindness in helping us with our luggage as my friend,Jo, had a bum knee. Thank you very much, Konstantino and Faye for a most memorable stay!!!

    Beautiful Historic Home in the Center of Oia
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Two-Bedroom House
    • Stayed 3 nights

    We had a challenge finding the house, despite Google coordinates - there are no markings or signs to say the name or address of the house- it sits on a busy street and there is always traffic so you have to keep moving. We had nowhere to park with our rental car and were not sure what to do. Host met us and all worked out but I would recommend clearer instructions beforehand for both a) the location and be) where to park. People are in an unfamiliar country and customs so explaining all this would alleviate some stress. The kitchen needs a little attention. We are cooks and there wasn't a cutting board or even one good prep knife. No potholder, clean sponge or kitchen towels. The dishes and pots could be more easily stored for accessibility maybe some new shelving or storage chest.

    This was a really cool historic stone house right in the center of Oia. It was decorated very nice and both bedrooms were comfortable. We loved the bluetooth speaker provided, and the rooftop deck was a great view. Although it sits on a main path to the center, it felt private and the windows and doors shut at night really blocked out noise. We loved walking to all the good restaurants, the sunsets and the shopping. Host was super accommodating & communicative.

    This accommodation didn't have many reviews, so I hesitated for a long time, but the actual accommodation was much wider, cleaner, and better than the photos. They checked me in kindly, and the facilities were fully prepared. At night, it was slightly away from the main street, so I was able to sleep soundly without any noise. I highly recommend it. Don't hesitate.

    The hot water supply was inconsistent, but since it was summer, it wasn't a big issue. The staff mentioned they are working on fixing it. I guess it will not affect anybody anymore.

    I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room and the roof top were spacious, clean, and quiet with a nice view. It also had good amenities like a quality speaker and cooking equipment. Overall, a comfortable stay in a great location.

    Wonderful hosts! Friendly and attentive. We received instant replies to any questions we had. Great location just minutes away from the main thoroughfare, but removed from the noise. The house is gorgeous and the patio, with a seaview, had enough space for us to practice yoga in the mornings. Just what we were looking for! Thank you.

    We loved the location of the home. Close enough to reach the shops and restaurants within minutes, but just far enough that noise wasn’t an issue. Our hosts were lovely and even arranged transfers for us to and from the home. The beds are very comfortable and the bathrooms are spacious. Overall great stay.

    Nothing. It doesn't have a Caldera view but you can walk 1 minute to be in the middle of Oia and all the action.

    The studio accommodation is actually quite spacious, and also very private, the outside terrace is covered to protect from he sun and also from any (not many) passers by. All the facilities were great quality, comfy bed, excellent shower etc. And had everything you need for a comfortable stay. Konstantinos and Faye are also amazing hosts and could have been more helpful. It was also very quiet at night for good quality sleep

    Nothing really. There are no views of the caldera from the apartment since it's just downhill of the main ridge line separating the sides of the island - we weren't totally sure if that would be the case going in, but the views were still really beautiful, especially from the roof.

    We had a great stay. The property is gorgeous - it's part of what I would describe it as a Grecian minimalist duplex. It's only a 100m from the main pedestrian area in Oia and about the same to the bus to Fira and other parts of the island. There are views of the Aegean Sea from inside the apartment (partial), and spacious front and rooftop patios (panoramic). We loved all the outdoor space. Our host was really helpful in booking transfers and providing recommendations. They provided a baby crib for us at no cost. We would 100% stay here again.

    Konstantino and Faye were absolutely amazing hosts. They went above and beyond to ensure we had an amazing time in Santorini. Their restaurant recommendations for breakfast, lunch and dinner were impressive, they made arrangements for a car hire (dropped off at the apartment), organised a personal custom sunset speedboat trip, made restaurant reservations for us, provided beach towels at request, supplied extra coffee pods when we ran out and even cleaned the apartment during our stay. The apartment is in a perfect location with everything within walking distance. Quaint and beautifully decorated, spotless and super comfortable. I would highly recommend staying here! you will not be disappointed!
