Santo Blue Horizon - The Blue Domes View

I could not possibly express how wonderful this property is. My wife and I sat on the balcony and were looking around and are both convinced that this was THE best location in all of Santorini. The inside of the unit was extremely clean and comfortable. The unit is beyond the public access areas for viewing of the Blue Dome Church and is where the professional photographers try and bring their clients for pictures. The pool is a great place to sit and enjoy the view with a glass on wine. The Air Conditioning is cold and the bedding was extremely comfortable. The communication with the owners was easy and they were extremely attentive and accommodating. The only thing we regret is not having more time to stay!

My family of six (2 parents, 2 young adult children, and their 2 guests) greatly enjoyed our stay at Santo Blue Horizon. The traditional cave home experience was wonderful and the views were simply amazing. One night in the hot tub someone commented that the view was so incredible it didn’t even seem real, that it felt like they were on the set of a movie with the views as a setting backdrop. As if the house was not wonderful enough, Anesti and his parents were an absolute joy to interact with. They spent so much time each day making sure the home was meticulously cleaned for us. Anesti offered us the opportunity to hire him as a driver for the week, which allowed us to simplify our vacation experience even more. There were so many wonderful positives about this property that we would recommend it to others and would happily stay there again.

This place is no joke - quite possibly the best location and place in all of Santorini let alone Oia! The iconic setting and view is amazing. The place is perfect in every way. We were family of 5. We enjoyed morning coffee outside on the deck and wine on the balcony. The host Anesti is the perfect tour guide. Definitely have him arrange the chef dinner at your place- also use the benefit of him to book your ideas. He also had connections to get us into a sought after Michelin star restaurant. Also - hire him for pick up and return to airport ( definitely a huge help with the luggage with all the stairs to climb!). Can’t wait to stay there again !

Five stars – a special experienceIt’s not often you get the chance to experience something truly unique. This was one of those times — and one of those places.Pros:Location: Absolutely remarkable. You’re quite literally looking out at the iconic blue domes — front and center. We captured incredible photos at all times of day, from sunrise to sunset.Host: You couldn’t ask for a kinder, more accommodating host. Friendly, responsive, and genuinely great to interact with.Patio: The outdoor patio was a major highlight. We spent hours relaxing there — it was peaceful, beautiful, and hard to leave.Cons:Instagram crowds: Because of the view, there’s almost always a group of people nearby trying to snap the perfect shot of the blue domes. It comes with the territory, but it’s worth being aware.Low ceilings: Some areas inside have low ceilings — I bumped my head a few times. Taller guests might want to watch out.

Five stars are not enough to express how wonderful Santo Blue Horizon and it's consulting manager, Anesti are. First, the property is pristine. It has everything one can ask for -- especially a spectacular view of the culdera and the three blue domes of Oia, Santorini. Anesti arranged everything for us from airport transfers to making sure we had everything we needed at the Vrbo unit. The beds were comfortable, the bathroooms accomodating, the hot tub was wonderful and the decks were outstanding. Once you are booked, be sure to ask about the private dining experience by a person chef. It's amazing. We had an incredible time!

This wonderful cave is right next to the iconic Blue Domes. This place is where tourists come to take pictures; you are in front of the iconic blue domes! Tourists and professional photographers lined up bringing their clients -some with flying dresses- to take photos of the iconic Blue Domes. Don’t worry, the patio is blocked off for private residents, so you feel separate from the tourists. I don’t think there is a better property like this with the best view of Santorini!

Santo Blue Horizons was a dream location, directly overlooking the Blue Domes in Oia. The family-owned residence is well-maintained, and the attention to detail and prompt responses to our questions made our stay very comfortable. We requested pick-up and drop-off service at the ferry port from Anesti. I highly recommend this, as Anesti arranged a porter service to bring the bags to and from the residence. We also paid an additional fee for a Santorini tour from Anesti after check out, which I highly recommend!There is an option to add a home-cooked meal on the terrace. My family was thrilled with this option after a long day of traveling, and the food was excellent. We have a few allergies and preferences in our group, and they were all taken into account. It was one of the best meals that we had in Greece! The residence does have to be accessed by stairs. You do have to go past the tourists waiting to take photos, but we did not mind that small inconvenience because of the beautiful view we got to enjoy every day. My family loved this residence, and we hope to visit again!

While other guests to Oia Santorini have to cue for an hour or so to catch a glimpse of the famous Blue Domes you will be able to literally reach out and touch them from this house. Super clean and comfortable property with daily linen/towel service and absolutely stunning views from the upper patio. The hot tub is a delightful respite each evening. Your host, Anesti can arrange for airport transportation, sunset sailboat cruises, wine tastings, in home massages, car for a day, and islands tours. He is connected and can get just about anything you would desire. His father is an amazing chef and we would highly recommend asking Anesti to arrange an in-home chef prepared meal. So whether you are in Santorini to “experience it all” or just chill on a patio with a book, you will truly enjoy this property.

It really is the best spot on the island. People come far and wide for this very view of Santorini and this house has it all right outside the door: the caldera, the blue domes, the architecture. We didn’t have to go anywhere else on the island; we were already there. Those blue domes are majestic + magic = majestical! Anesti is a very attentive host and will deliver. When he asked if we wanted a private dinner on the patio table, we did not hesitate, and it was totally worth it. Do it. The food was tops!

This was our first time in Greece, first time for many out of the country. We knew little if anything about Sontorini, so we really relied on Anesti for our entire trip (even when we ventured to Athens for 2 days). Anesti's family home is beyond words. If you are looking for the place featured in EVERY postcard, spitting distance from the (3) blue domes, then this is the ONLY place!!! The home is extremely roomy, (3) QUEEN beds, (3) full private baths, and (1) twin bed. We fit (7) adults in there comfortably. The place is impeccably clean and organized - you want for nothing. Now, for the VIEW... one patio staring at the sea... touchable to the (3) blue domes, and another looking over the sea and all of Oia!! I'm not going to lie, I teared up when I first rounded the corner of the steps to our home for 5 days. Again, no words!! You are staying in the place EVERYONE wants a picture of... countless people just hoping to get close enough. What's great - is many places are blocked off for private residents, so you feel separate from the tourists vs. those living on the cliff. But, my review wouldn't be a review if I didn't talk about Anesti. There was a chance my family wouldn't make it from Athens to Santorini for our first night due to weather. Anesti was there every minute... helping us devise a plan. He met us at the airport that evening, helped carry our luggage, and walked us through the entire home. The fridge was stocked with milk, eggs, cheese, meat, juice and cereal - oh, and WINE! Again, we wanted for nothing. The next day he took us on a tour of Santorni, to all of the hidden gems. The following day he arranged a sunset boat tour - fantastic! He checked in on us daily, come by for some light housecleaning, and offered a ton of insights into our trip to Athens. Bottom line, HE'S the entire reason you book a 16+ hour flight to Greece, with your family (for the first time), entrusting a complete stranger with it all. To say the least... WE'LL BE BACK!!!! And we aren't staying anywhere else. Thanks, Anesti - for making it a TRIP OF A LIFETIME!!!! Jenny, Matt, Carson, Casey, Naomi, Trevor and Angie

This was a lovely villa right in the heart of Santorini! Our host, Anesti, was so helpful and kind. The place was very clean, and everything was well-organized and taken care of. High recommend!

Anesti and his family were amazing hosts. The home was immaculately clean, the view was outstanding and we thoroughly enjoyed the dinner experience that they prepared for us on our balcony. Anesti toured us around the island prior to dropping us off at the ferry station. Cannot say enough great things. Thank you for a memorable vacation.

3 day trip to Santorini in May 2023. At the time of writing this review, there are 27 reviews for this property on VRBO with a net 5 star rating. And I couldn’t agree more! The house is literally right there next to the iconic Santorini blue domes. Exclusive viewing whenever you want. Just peek out. Or sit on the upper balcony, drink coffee and enjoy watching the domes with the sea as background. House is very clean, well furnished and well supplied with coffee etc, even honey! Host is exceptional. Anesti is very prompt in responding, always courteous and very well connected. Need anything at all? Just ask Anesti !! Overall an absolutely fantastic experience. Highly recommended. Pricier compared to other locations but for very good reason. If and when we come back to Santorini, trip will be planned according to availability of this property. It’s that good.

Santos Blue Horizon is the most iconic cave house in all of Santorini! We had a family of 5 adults celebrating my 70th birthday here for 5 days! Anesti was invaluable from start to finish, months before our arrival. He didn't mind all of us on a group chat on Whatsapp and we scheduled all our activities through him, our host. Anesti's father, Armando, a chef for over 25 years prepared the best meal we had while in Santorini right there in Santos Blue Horizon. There is no better view than this location. Everything is within walking distance of this house! Another surprise was they provided house cleaning and linen change every two days. This house and location is so understated...you have to experience it to understand why everyone in Santorini wants to come here and take pictures...it is simply the best view on the island! Thanks you Anesti, Jenni and Amando for making our vacation so special and comfortable! Yamas

We had an incredible stay! The three bedroom home was outstanding. It was absolutely immaculate, well stocked with supplies and there is no better location on Santorini! It was magical! The property host was excellent. Any questions we had on transportation or the island or tours were answered immediately. We had a question about the ferries to other islands and he even contacted the ferry boat captain to get us an immediate response. We would HIGHLY recommend this property to others. You will not be disappointed!

Three friends traveled to Santorini after departing Athens. Santo Blue Horizon was exactly as advertised. It is FABULOUS! Location was perfect and you could not have a better view. The house construction was amazing, no detail left out. Very clean with all of the amenities described and MORE. THE BEST PART OF THIS RENTAL IS THE HOSTS, Anesti and is family go above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Best place I’ve ever rented and I’ve rented many on Vrbo. Thanks Anesti, Ruth.

This cave house is right next to the famous Blue Domes with tremendous views across the caldera. Five of us stayed very comfortably here. Anesti and his family took good care of us, arranging anything requested, including a delicious dinner cooked by his father. There is heavy foot traffic around the house given its scenic location, but Oia is not really the place to go if you want solitude. We highly recommend this house for those who want to be in the middle of things, while knowing everything you need will be taken care of by an owner who really cares about his guests.

Property is as pictured. Beds comfortable. Hosts are very attentive and gracious! I don’t think there is a better property to be found. We were very happy with our five night stay!!

Anesti & his family were the warmest most wonderful people. The property was just as described and the view was magnificent. They even left breakfast goodies for us to enjoy! They made check in so easy & made us feel like family. The place was magical - every other tourist lined up to take their photos (including many of the flying dress ...) right next to our home for a few days - it's iconic. Definitely do the dinner - it was so special & we will remember forever. Hope to be back - book this place- the kids loved it too. It was quaint, beautiful, quintessential Oia. You can walk to everything & Anesti booked our sailing cruise too - enjoy enjoy enjoy!

We had an incredible time at Anesti’s place in Oia. The pictures don’t do the views justice! And Anesti and his family were incredibly helpful in carrying our luggage and driving us to and from the airport. Would 10/10 recommend!!

I don't have a bad thing to say about this rental. The ONLY thing to be careful of when booking, there are quite a lot of steps to get to the property, and they are uneven. Not great for someone with problems walking. The host is so much more than a normal host. Recommendations, rides, help with anything you might need on the island. If I could give this place 50 stars out of 10 I would.

Anesti and his family go above and beyond to make your stay memorable and relaxing! From the transportation help at the ferry and airport, to the amazing meal and relaxing massages- WOW, they do it all. We were also referred to a friend of Anesti’s who took us on a boat ride all over the caldera to snorkel, swim in hot springs, tour the islands and learn about the geography of the volcanic area. Lastly we watched the sunset on a magical trip. What a gift and trip of a lifetime!

The property, and more importantly, the hospitality of the owner and his family was beyond expectations. Amazing people and experience. Book without hesitations.

Amazing views with terrific hosts. We couldn’t have asked for a better location staring out at the sea and blue domes. The hosts were so friendly and checked in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. Anesti took us on a full day tour of the island, beaches, and a winery tour, and was patient while we did a little grocery shopping for a local meal. Could not recommend this place more!!

Anesti and his family were amazing! Very hospitable and they made you feel like family. Whatever you need, they are available! The property itself is stunning. Truly can’t beat the location. The views are the best that santorini has to offer.

This was a wonderful property with an amazing view of the Blue Domes… we could almost touch them. Anesti and his family were very helpful and his father even prepared us a delicious traditional Greek meal to eat at the house. Would definitely recommend.

Anesti was invaluable from start to finish, months before our arrival. He didn't mind all of us on a group chat on Whatsapp and we scheduled all our activities through him, our host. Anesti's father, Armando, a chef for over 25 years prepared the best meal we had while in Santorini right there in Santos Blue Horizon. There is no better view than this location. Everything is within walking distance of this house! Another surprise was they provided house cleaning and linen change every two days. This house and location is so understated...you have to experience it to understand why everyone in Santorini wants to come here and take pictures...it is simply the best view on the island! Thanks you Anesti, Jenni and Amando for making our vacation so special and comfortable! Yamas

It really is the best spot on the island. People come far and wide for this very view of Santorini and this house has it all right outside the door: the caldera, the blue domes, the architecture. We didn’t have to go anywhere else on the island; we were already there. Those blue domes are majestic + magic = majestical! Anesti is a very attentive host and will deliver. When he asked if we wanted a private dinner on the patio table, we did not hesitate, and it was totally worth it. Do it. The food was tops!

Amazing views with terrific hosts. We couldn’t have asked for a better location staring out at the sea and blue domes. The hosts were so friendly and checked in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. Anesti took us on a full day tour of the island, beaches, and a winery tour, and was patient while we did a little grocery shopping for a local meal. Could not recommend this place more!!

Anesti & his family were the warmest most wonderful people. The property was just as described and the view was magnificent. They even left breakfast goodies for us to enjoy! They made check in so easy & made us feel like family. The place was magical - every other tourist lined up to take their photos (including many of the flying dress ...) right next to our home for a few days - it's iconic. Definitely do the dinner - it was so special & we will remember forever. Hope to be back - book this place- the kids loved it too. It was quaint, beautiful, quintessential Oia. You can walk to everything & Anesti booked our sailing cruise too - enjoy enjoy enjoy!

Anesti and his family were amazing hosts. The home was immaculately clean, the view was outstanding and we thoroughly enjoyed the dinner experience that they prepared for us on our balcony. Anesti toured us around the island prior to dropping us off at the ferry station. Cannot say enough great things. Thank you for a memorable vacation.

This cave house is right next to the famous Blue Domes with tremendous views across the caldera. Five of us stayed very comfortably here. Anesti and his family took good care of us, arranging anything requested, including a delicious dinner cooked by his father. There is heavy foot traffic around the house given its scenic location, but Oia is not really the place to go if you want solitude. We highly recommend this house for those who want to be in the middle of things, while knowing everything you need will be taken care of by an owner who really cares about his guests.

Santo Blue Horizons was a dream location, directly overlooking the Blue Domes in Oia. The family-owned residence is well-maintained, and the attention to detail and prompt responses to our questions made our stay very comfortable. We requested pick-up and drop-off service at the ferry port from Anesti. I highly recommend this, as Anesti arranged a porter service to bring the bags to and from the residence. We also paid an additional fee for a Santorini tour from Anesti after check out, which I highly recommend!There is an option to add a home-cooked meal on the terrace. My family was thrilled with this option after a long day of traveling, and the food was excellent. We have a few allergies and preferences in our group, and they were all taken into account. It was one of the best meals that we had in Greece! The residence does have to be accessed by stairs. You do have to go past the tourists waiting to take photos, but we did not mind that small inconvenience because of the beautiful view we got to enjoy every day. My family loved this residence, and we hope to visit again!

While other guests to Oia Santorini have to cue for an hour or so to catch a glimpse of the famous Blue Domes you will be able to literally reach out and touch them from this house. Super clean and comfortable property with daily linen/towel service and absolutely stunning views from the upper patio. The hot tub is a delightful respite each evening. Your host, Anesti can arrange for airport transportation, sunset sailboat cruises, wine tastings, in home massages, car for a day, and islands tours. He is connected and can get just about anything you would desire. His father is an amazing chef and we would highly recommend asking Anesti to arrange an in-home chef prepared meal. So whether you are in Santorini to “experience it all” or just chill on a patio with a book, you will truly enjoy this property.

Anesti and his family go above and beyond to make your stay memorable and relaxing! From the transportation help at the ferry and airport, to the amazing meal and relaxing massages- WOW, they do it all. We were also referred to a friend of Anesti’s who took us on a boat ride all over the caldera to snorkel, swim in hot springs, tour the islands and learn about the geography of the volcanic area. Lastly we watched the sunset on a magical trip. What a gift and trip of a lifetime!

This was our first time in Greece, first time for many out of the country. We knew little if anything about Sontorini, so we really relied on Anesti for our entire trip (even when we ventured to Athens for 2 days). Anesti's family home is beyond words. If you are looking for the place featured in EVERY postcard, spitting distance from the (3) blue domes, then this is the ONLY place!!! The home is extremely roomy, (3) QUEEN beds, (3) full private baths, and (1) twin bed. We fit (7) adults in there comfortably. The place is impeccably clean and organized - you want for nothing. Now, for the VIEW... one patio staring at the sea... touchable to the (3) blue domes, and another looking over the sea and all of Oia!! I'm not going to lie, I teared up when I first rounded the corner of the steps to our home for 5 days. Again, no words!! You are staying in the place EVERYONE wants a picture of... countless people just hoping to get close enough. What's great - is many places are blocked off for private residents, so you feel separate from the tourists vs. those living on the cliff. But, my review wouldn't be a review if I didn't talk about Anesti. There was a chance my family wouldn't make it from Athens to Santorini for our first night due to weather. Anesti was there every minute... helping us devise a plan. He met us at the airport that evening, helped carry our luggage, and walked us through the entire home. The fridge was stocked with milk, eggs, cheese, meat, juice and cereal - oh, and WINE! Again, we wanted for nothing. The next day he took us on a tour of Santorni, to all of the hidden gems. The following day he arranged a sunset boat tour - fantastic! He checked in on us daily, come by for some light housecleaning, and offered a ton of insights into our trip to Athens. Bottom line, HE'S the entire reason you book a 16+ hour flight to Greece, with your family (for the first time), entrusting a complete stranger with it all. To say the least... WE'LL BE BACK!!!! And we aren't staying anywhere else. Thanks, Anesti - for making it a TRIP OF A LIFETIME!!!! Jenny, Matt, Carson, Casey, Naomi, Trevor and Angie

In addition to the stunning location and multiple outdoor spaces, the level of service was the distinguishing feature. Rather than outsource, the owner and his warm family provide the service, including daily housekeeping and restocking the kitchen with everything for a full breakfast, providing transfers, booking dinner reservations and excursions, and preparing and serving a memorable dinner on one of the terraces.
