Oia, Oia, 84700, Greece –

Fantastic location, easy walk into Oia but not packed with tourists. All rooms have spectacular water views and the host, Christina, (along with Captain John of course) is amazing!

Cody, United States of America

Outstanding location. Great owner and staff. Warm hospitality. Attention to detail.

Filip, United States of America

Everything! The location may be the best in town, located at the end of town on the highest hill with an amazing view. Nature to one side, huge ocean views out front and around and spectacular town views up the other side. I have traveled the world and I think this may be the most stunning view I ever had from a hotel. Four apartments make it cost and friendly and the stall person, Christina, maybe my best ever also. We had the middle room and I thought it perfect and charming and the best terrace too. I just LOVED it and we had 3 perfect days there.

Trudy, United States of America

Gorgeous sunsets. Beautiful setting. Christina was wonderful-very helpful and pleasant. We liked that Captain John’s was a little bit at the end of town. The location was stunning. That was also easy parking.

Kenneth, United States of America

Amazing view, clean property, all necessary amenities, friendly host, great location

Jessica, United States of America

It is very spacious, clean and had a great location!

Reina, Indonesia

Loved the view and the location. You're not in the center of town which is nice because you're not surrounded by hoards of people. However you are a short walk to the center.

Steven, United States of America

We loved everything about the room, the view from the room. We were late to reach the hotel becoz of the delay in the ferry so when we reached no one was there. But they had left keys so it was not a problem. The hosts are very friendly. They also provided some stuff for breakfast which we found as a nice/kind gesture. The views from the outside of the room are also very nice. Oia old town is also quite closeby (15mins by walk). Would definitely recommend this place

Preeti, Netherlands

The location was super awesome since we could see all of Oia (the property was on one end of Oia), including the sunsets! Christina was wonderful all along, greeted us warmly and with a smile every-time, and never missed an opportunity to help us out! The jacuzzi (shared among 3 rooms) was very good even with it being not heated (or heated enough?). The property was very close to the main road (bus stops were within minutes of walking distance). All-in-all, very happy with our stay and would stay here again if we are back in Santorini!

Mahim, United States of America

The location was absolutely stunning. We also enjoyed the little snacks and juices provided in the room as well as how clean and well kept the place was including the amenities incl luggage storage. Even though there were several miscommunications with the host Christina, she turned out to be just lovely in the end by trying her best to sort all our miscommunications out.

we had to request a second sun lounger, which we got straight away. the space on the terrace was limited but so beautiful, I'll take that every day all day
We made our own breakfast every day to sit in the most beautiful terrace with the most spectacular views to greet you every day. All necessary elements were provided by hosts.

Great place. Great location. Extraordinary service. Although the price might be considered high compared to other possible options in the island, I think it's reasonable because of the views of the Caldera. The location is the best.

“A beautiful comfortable place to stay convenient for enjoying the incomparable view and the town.”

Our only trouble was in finding exactly where it was located in the dark when we drove in from the airport. Because of the sign laws they cannot have a big sign. My only suggestion is that before you go you ask Christina by email exactly how to get to Captain John’s. You basically have to walk a short distance from the parking area through another resort to find it.Definitely worth it!
Christina Is a delightful person, and she was very excellent about answering emails before our visit.It was also very pleasant to meet Captain John, he is the one who gave us our keys the night we came in. They were very gracious about letting us come in late.There were snacks and granola and milk in the refrigerator and coffee supplies which were great for a light breakfast. The rooms were as lovely and unique as advertised, with the quiet comfortable bedrooms. All this alone would be a great reason to stay here,but the view is truly spectacular and I suspect it is one of the best on the island.People scramble around trying to get the best sunset view but if you stay here you can just sit on your patio and soak it all in. Also you are about a five minute walk from the start of the wonderful town. You can buy water at the stores,you can go for a yummy meal, you can shop. You can walk to the end of the town and down all the steps to the small port below and have a delicious waterside meal and then walk around the point and swim.I would stay there again in a heartbeat!

I would have liked a heated jetted pool but I bet in summer it feels perfect. If stairs are an issue this hotel, like Ioa itself, may not be for you. Not the worse hotel for stairs but has many to get there and around town.
