The view is absolutely unbeatable. We stayed in a standard room 2 nights then the suite 1 night and the view for both rooms is just incredible. The area is a bit more private compared to directly in Oia city and it's not a far walk. The prices, while high compared to what we normally fork out for a room, are good value when you consider other prices in the same area. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. The lady who served us breakfast etc is so kind and friendly! You have an amazing view of the sunset directly from your deck and can avoid the crazy crowds at the popular sunset spots in Oia. Because of this amazing view we never wanted to leave. Definitely one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed and would definitely come back!

Location was awesome. On the edge of the busy area so felt secluded. Amazing view with NO crowds. It was only a 4min walk to the main shopping area.

Perfect location, very clean and comfortable, spectacular views of the sea/caldera, the city and gorgeous sunsets. Only footsteps away from mini market, restaurants, and sky bar. Very close walk to Oia village centre—lots of shopping options. We rented the top level suite complete with kitchen, private balcony, and plunge pool. Only two of us stayed, but the room had plenty of space for at least two more people as there was an extra twin-sized bed and daybed. Staff was extremely kind, helpful, and accommodated us even though we showed-up earlier than expected. Maria was very knowledgeable in guiding us to the best beaches on the island. Will definitely stay again the next time we visit!!!

We loved this place!!!!! The views are out of this world & would book again for this alone! Another awesome point was the staff named Maria, she was the sweetest person & so willing to help with anything. She was a jem to see in the mornings & serve breakfast. Breakfast was unexpected as well & good. There is a shared jet pool on the bottom terrace for 3 rooms. Wish we could have used but ran out of time as our days were packed with excursions. I wish we would have stayed longer in Oia, Athens has been a let down:(

Breakfast ok —- fruit very good Location excellent

The host Christina was EXTREMELY helpful and accommodating for our entire stay at Captain John’s, not only did she ensure we checked in safely on the first night, she also helped us find things to do and even booked a catamaran tour for our group at a great price. Honestly can’t say enough about how thankful we were to have her as our host. The location itself is also exceptionally beautiful, providing a great view of Oia right from your room but far enough from the city itself to have some peace and quiet.

The view from the terrace was mind-blowing in a different way at all times during the day. The breakfast was huge and delicious every morning. The room was spacious and had all the amenities you might need.

The property is located at the south of Oia. It gives the perfect view to the most of part of Oia. The view of sunset is fantastic from the property. In the morning, you can get the best view of Santorini and Cyclades!

Great views of Santorini town from here, away from the tourists. Short walk into town was relaxing.

Excellent location with a beautiful view of Oia village. Walkable distance to the village with a mini market just a stone throw away. Very clean accommodation with lovely well kept furniture and facilities, which make for a comfortable stay at Oia. Last but not least, the sunset view from the property is amazing, where you can enjoy while relaxing at the outdoor jacuzzi. Also, the kind hospitality of Christina is worth mentioning. She was so helpful and was always available to address everything we had asked. My husband and I celebrated our first year wedding anniversary at Captain John’s and we couldn’t be more happier with our choice.
