Lava Caves
Lava Caves provide premium accommodations at Oia, the most sophisticated and picturesque village of Santorini. Live the myth by staying in a cave that used to be a sailor's domicile back in 1875. Today after a full restoration, it has been turned into a jewel, keeping its traditional cave-curved Aegean island style with its pearl white walls.
The owners, two bothers George and Stavros, have always admired the unique beauty of the island and over the years have grown to be deeply sentimentally attached to Santorini, decided to restore it from scratch. While preserving the property's soul
Just a few minutes walk from the ruins of the old castle, where visitors assemble every evening to marvel the Oia's majestic sunsets.
