A beautiful, small hotel. Every staff member we encountered were absolutely delightful. Views are amazing. Location is very good for exploring Oia. Highly recommended.
Stunning property! Incredible views & room-we appreciated the wine & the cupcakes. Thank you to Christina & Alex for the wonderful stay, hopefully will be back one day!
This is an amazing property! We loved everything. Extremely clean, comfortable beds, beautiful views, nice hot tub and patio. The staff was super attentive and helpful with our bags. Christina and Alex helped up with arranging transfers and catamaran trip. Highly recommend.
We had the most amazing stay at Aris Caves while on our honeymoon.. we couldn’t have picked anywhere better! The apartment was incredible and the staff could not have been more welcoming and helpful.
Hoping were lucky enough to go back one day ☺️
Absolute highlight of our Eurotrip, the room was perfect and the view was incredible !
Alex and Christina were very helpful and quick to respond.
Would recommend to friends and family, and we would definitely return :)
Thank you :)
Wow we loved our room - right on the caldera. There was also a fabulous communal area overlooking the ocean to chill and enjoy a glass of wine. The staff were wonderful, lugging our cases up the steep hill. We were glad we took our hiking sticks to help us get up the inclines. We also received a fabulous bottle of wine in welcome. It is a tricky location if you can’t manage hills and steps, but that’s what gives you the amazing views. Immaculately maintained, and right in the middle of Oia - it couldn’t have been better!
We had the most amazing view at Aris! Alex was amazing, he greeted us with coffee and biscuits as we checked in and he showed us the map of the area and recommendations. There are a lot of stairs to get up and down to the property, but to be expected as it was on the cliff and the view was totally worth it!
Just home from the most amazing week. All staff were lovely and so helpful. The view from our terrace was the best we have ever had. Whilst the hotel is in the town, the rooms are quiet and peaceful. If you like quality, comfort and an amazing view, I would highly recommend Aris Caves.
Our stay at Aries Caves in Santorini was absolutely incredible. The views were truly breathtaking and made our trip even more special. The hotel was spotless, beautifully maintained, and offered everything we needed for a relaxing stay.
A special thank you to Alex and Christine, who were so helpful in arranging activities and making sure we had a wonderful experience from start to finish. Their hospitality and attention to detail were exceptional.
We highly recommend Aries Caves to anyone visiting Santorini and would love to return again someday!
The property was absolutely amazing! The most beautiful views and the location was extraordinary! Clean rooms and super comfortable bed! The staff were responsive and helpful with transportation arrangements. I can’t wait to go back!
This place is AMAZING! A must stay if you visit Oia. Christina and the staff are so nice and easy to work with, and they made our time in Oia extra special. We hope we will be able to come back in the future!
The hotel is beautiful and the views are stunning. It’s the perfect place to stay in Oía to relax and get way from the crowds. The host, Christina, was very welcoming and at our disposal if needed. Highly recommend!
Had a lovely stay. Apartment was very central but when Oia got busy you could escape back down easily to some quiet. Had an amazing view from my own terrace. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Will stay again if I visit Oia again.
This is an amazing property. Location is amazing, views are spectacular and the hospitality is A++. Christina is the most amazing hostess and makes you feel so at home. We have traveled to 50+ countries and stayed in so many hotels, this was truly memorable.
We had the most amazing experience at this hotel. The terrace had wonderful views and it was the perfect location. Cristina was the best hostess and assisted with car rental, activities and restaurant recommendations.
