Why

  1. 01

    An intimate, owner-run cluster of traditional cave rooms perched on the Fira caldera near the old castle.

    Our read
  2. 02

    Warm, personal service and the volcano view without resort prices — simpler than the luxury cave hotels, and proud of it.

Rooms & rate

What you're paying for

A handful of traditional cave-style rooms and suites along the Fira cliff, several with caldera-view terraces. Simpler and smaller than the luxury caves, with the view as the headline feature.

Plan it well
