    We absolutely loved Gabbiano and would definitely stay again. It was perfect for my husband, 7 year old and I. Irini was so incredibly welcoming and helpful, she made our stay even better! The room was spacious and very comfortable, the view was unbeatable, and it was very private and quiet. We loved every minute!

    Simply exceptional. From the moment we got there we were taken care of with the host meeting us with the keys. Firstly the views from this property are sensational. And as far as cave houses go, this has fewer stairs than some others (short walk from street). The apartment itself is spacious, air conditioned and has everything you need. The hydrospa on the balcony is excellent, especially given the heat of the summer, gives you the perfect spot to plunge but not your breathtaking viewing time. The property is also walking distance to the main town of Oia, about 1km, and it’s a beautiful walk The host also can provide breakfast for an additional fee, and it is fantastic and would highly recommend Overall can’t say enough positives about this place. If you’re going to Oia and want a place with that postcard Oia view, you don’t need to look further. We will be staying again

    We loved everything. If we had to think of one ‘negative’ it would be that the beds were not the most comfortable, for us.

    We loved the location: close to Oia but out of the supper busy area. Also loved our outdoor space with the most amazing views! The host was so kind and helpful.

    My only regret is that I didn’t book a longer stay here!! Everything is absolutely perfect

    Gabbiano Traditional Cave Houses was a dream come true! From the moment we arrived we were made to feel so welcome by the host Irini she spent time with us letting us know all the hints and tips of the island and all her restaurant recommendations were amazing. But what absolutely sold this place was the stunning caldera views from the balcony and roof top jacuzzi - I have never loved a hotel as much as I did this one. The location was perfect close enough to Oia that you could walk in and explore in the morning before the huge crowds arrived and then in the afternoon relax in the privacy of your villa enjoying the views and beautiful sunset. Hand down the best hotel ever!!!!

    This place hasn’t received enough recognition in previous reviews. It is a stunning hideaway with fantastic views of the caldera, from the pool and from the balcony. Even better views from where we were compared to further up the hill!! Only a quick 5 minute walk to the Main Street and supermarket. Clean and tidy with service every morning for clean towels and bedding. Irini was a fantastic help and provided us with a great map to navigate our stay. We followed all of her recommendations and were very pleased. Value for money we would definitely recommend this place to all our friends and fellow Australian wanting visit the beautiful Santorini!

    In the evening there were insects in the jacuzzi and this prevented us from spending more time in it

    We spent our honeymoon and the location is excellent, the view from the room is breathtaking and the silence is relaxing. Amazing sunsets! Irini is very nice and helpful, she was available at any hour for questions and recommendations and it was above and beyond our expectations. In my opinion, the matter of insects in the jacuzzi should be improved in the evening and also put a body mirror in the room and this will add to the experience of staying there. We really liked the place, the view, the service and the availability and we would definitely like to come back in the future. Of course warmly and wholeheartedly recommend.
