Amazing view
Publié le 7 sept. 2023 sur HomeAwayGreat location - one of the best, if not the best - if you want to see the infamous sunset of Santorini. However, super crowded area at that time of day so you don't get much intimacy from your rooftop terrace as you have hundreds of tourists overlooking the terrace from above! The spa is pretty far (5 min walk) if you are really planning to enjoy it, and there is no view from there. House is small but very special and well equipped. Breakfast is provided, which is pretty convenient. And Maria has been a great host, helpful us finding some snorkeling activities for our family.

Dear Lori,
thank you for your review!
I am sorry for the inconvenience about power & wireless outage during an hour but it was due to heavy consumption of the available power in Santorini. To avoid black outs the Municipality of Oia advise the guests to consciously conserve energy all the time!
thank you!

Cute
Publié le 22 sept. 2024 sur HomeAwayThe place was really cute. It was very well stocked. Unfortunately, the listing is a little misleading thought that it included breakfast on the terrace and wine in the evening. There was an outside area directly and steps that goes up to a private terrace. We thought that this is where the breakfast would be served and wine in the evening, that it is served with a hike away very steep steps and crowds of people so we were not able to enjoy this perk with this place.

Dear Venus, Thank you for having the courtesy to mention that our HELIOS cave house is really cute and very well stocked!
It is true that you stayed in one of the most popular houses in Oia and I am really sorry you missed its best parts...
Wine & snacks are served at sunset time on the rooftop terrace as long as you are there. I, personally, was there on the 14th Septembe, the day you checked, but we did not see you at the terrace to come and meet you and offer you our snacks & sweets.
Breakfast provisions are in the fridge and in the kitchen. You can help yourself and serve them wherever you feel like: in the front yard or on the rooftop terrace, just above the house.
In our houses, we offer the following breakfast provisions: juice, honey, butter, peanut butter, merenda, 2 kinds of marmalade, a can of condensed milk, sugar, milk in individual portions, tea, 2-3 kinds of coffee, 2-3 kinds of cereal, cereal bars, toast, as well as fruits, yogurt, chocolates, smoked turkey, bread, cheese and biscuits, all packaged in portions following the instructions given by the WHO organization and the Greek Government. Enjoy breakfast on your private yard/terrace, with an amazing Caldera & sea view! In case you run out of one or more provisions, please let us know in advance in order to refill it.
In 3 minutes walking distance is the HELIOS beautiful hot tub area, under the shadow of a big pink & white bougainvillea tree!
Dear Venus, once again I thank you for choosing our house!

If seeing the famous sunset is top priority then this is the perfect place!
Publié le 23 août 2024 sur HomeAwayThe cute picturesque exterior is a very popular location for tourists taking pics. There will always be people right outside your front door either taking pics or sitting waiting for the sunset. This is either a pro or con depending. The property is an ok size for two adults and two small children. Ideally it’s for couples looking for the perfect spot to see the sunset. The spot is 100% perfect for that but keep in mind on the roof top deck there will be hundreds of people behind you also watching the sunset so don’t expect to have any privacy. There’s the lower deck where you have slightly more privacy to enjoy the sunset. All in all great place to stay if your objective is to see the sunset with ease. It is a small cave house so you have to expect some comprise compared to a modern hotel/house so keep that in mind especially for the bathroom.

Perfect Sunset View in Oia
Publié le 19 juill. 2024 sur HomeAwayA great cave house with excellent service and the perfect location for watching the sunset! Maria was very helpful and went out of her way to make our family feel special.

Perfect Location
Publié le 27 mai 2024 sur HomeAwayWe definitely enjoyed our stay at the Helios House. The location, gets no better than this spot. You have your own private terrace which you can enjoy a nice breakfast, or cocktails and dinner in the evening. The views overlooking Ammoudi bay are absolutely stunning! Everyone who visits Oia comes to this area for the views and especially during sunsets...which at times are the costs you pay for this spot. You do have to deal with the crowds of people in the immediate area because of the popularity. And because it is perfect for selfies and based on the connection to the movie, a lot people stop by to take pictures. So you need to be informed that you will get lots and lots of people hanging out around this spot. However once you are inside the house, you do not see them or hear them hardly at all.
As for the villa itself, the pictures do match up to what you are getting. Maria, the owner, had commitments in Athens. However she did make sure everything was well taken care of and made sure our stay went well. She continued to follow up and made sure all concerns were met. Daniel was our main contact and he did a great job, always there if we had a question, concern or request.
The overall experience was again excellent and very happy we made this choice. Only a few things to be aware. The water pressure can be a challenge at times; but that's an area situation. I would also reccomend that both terraces need to be washed down more often. Other than that,a great time

Lovely cave house
Publié le 11 oct. 2023 sur HomeAwayWe had a wonderful time staying at our cave house. Maria provides plenty of drinks and snacks for your entire stay. Communication was excellent. Everything was clean and comfortable. This is the most popular area in Santorini so there are always people outside the door taking pics of the view and that may be a negative to some. That being said, it’s lovely to have your own rooftop to yourself to watch the sunset while everyone above and below are scrambling to get pics.

An unforgettable stay in the heart of Oia
Publié le 30 juill. 2023 sur HomeAwayPerfect location in Oia! Maria was very responsive to all of my questions leading up to our trip and during our stay, even offering suggestions for places to eat and activities to do during our time there. Mustafa was incredibly helpful, gracious and attentive. The property was well appointed and the views were spectacular! We loved our time at Helios...such a unique property within a few steps to all that Oia has to offer.

Sunset views and charm
Publié le 11 juill. 2023 sur HomeAwayThe private sunset view deck made this place extra special! Maria was responsive and made our check-in and out go smoothly. The breakfast items were a treat, as was the bottle of wine she gave us. The primary bed was very comfortable and we appreciated the provided wall chargers and converters. We wished we'd paid better attention to some of the pictures as we didn't realize the cellar room was accessed from the toilet area, the stairs and upstairs loft had quite low ceilings (ouch!), and the living space/kitchen were quite small. We also didn't realize the hot tub was such a walk away and only available during limited times. The location was unique. Loads (and loads) of people stop there for pictures, which was noisy but made for some fun people (and donkey) watching. It's down quite a number of steep stairs but close to a nice restaurant. The patio had a direct sunset view (no competition to stake out a spot!) and was quite peaceful in the morning (though the stairs up were rather steep). Maria's staff was very helpful with all our luggage and kept the place clean. We were very happy with our stay and would highly recommend Maria as a host and the villa. Thank you!
