Charming cave-style hotel with plunge pools in Oia (Santorini)
Accommodations
Elysian Elia Heritage offers five room types, including the Sunset Cave House with Outdoor Plunge Pool and Sea View and the Superior Cave House with Plunge Pool and Sea View. Each cave house is built into the 19th-century structure, providing naturally cool interiors without needing air conditioning in hot weather. Rooms come with private terraces, a coffee machine, and shared or private plunge pools set in a garden.
Location & Access
Situated in the quiet village of Finikia, the hotel is a 10-minute walk from Oia center and a 30-second walk from a mini market. A free public parking lot is within a 1-minute walk, and the Naval Museum of Oia is 2.4 km away. Santorini International Airport is 16 km from the property, and Athinios Port is 18 km away.
Family & Pet-Friendly Amenities
The hotel is family-friendly, with spacious cave houses that accommodate groups and families. Pet-friendly policies allow guests to bring their pets without leaving them behind. A concierge service, luggage storage, and laundry services support longer stays with children or pets.
Services & Host Experience
A 24-hour front desk provides assistance with airport pickup, airport drop-off, and car hire. The host Katerina offers a personalized service, helping guests with restaurant bookings, luggage storage, and even passport recovery from post offices in Fira. Daily housekeeping, ironing service, and laundry are also available.
Outdoor & Relaxation Spaces
The property has a garden, sun terrace, and outdoor furniture where guests can relax after walking in Oia. Several room types include a private terrace with plunge pool or shared plunge pool, plus a jacuzzi on large balconies. The garden is quiet enough to retreat from the crowded tourist areas in Oia.
Highlights
Accommodation: 5 cave house types with plunge pools
Location: 10 min walk to Oia, near free parking
Services: 24-hour front desk, airport shuttle, car hire
Family & Pets: Family rooms and pet-friendly policies
“Staying in Finikia, a short walk from Oia's bustle, offers a welcome tranquility, with local dining just steps away. The cave house experience is particularly idyllic, enhanced by the quiet charm of the village and its gardens. A private hot tub on the balcony truly elevates the sense of peaceful retreat.”
