Priceless Views
Amazing small hotel with the best views and little private balcony to watch the amazing sunset. Many tourists rush to get to this part of town to see the sunset and cram through the little walkways. I just had to go out on my balcony…with a free bottle of wine from the hotel and catch the amazing sunset from my balcony

Stunning views in the middle of the chaos
The place is amazingly nice, clean and with a lot of space. However outside is very noisy, chaotic and difficult to get there (specially with the luggage). The communication with the host was difficult at the beginning (he was "joking" about charging us for the internet or other things and we didn't follow his jokes, was uncomfortable and a bit unwelcoming), but afterwards he was pending and online.

I highly recommend Sophia Castle View! The accommodation was so clean and nice with a great location. We especially enjoyed the pool. Athanasios and his staff were also extremely helpful. He helped booked us a transfer from the airport and to the ferry port. He also provided recommendations for restaurants in Oia. Top notch customer service. Would stay here again.

Loved the location. It was everything I'd imagined... From the ocean view to the sunset to the hot tub overlooking the water. Room was beautiful, comfortable and the staff tidied up each morning. Plenty of restaurants, shops and more. Communication with property manager was amazing and loved how easy it was to have them assist in securing transportation. Perfection all the way around.

Best Santorini sunset view
The best spot in Santorini to view the sunset. We loved our stay in our little self-contained cave unit. Nice touches from the team who were great with communication and assisted us with our bags pre/post our stay. We can't wait to come again!

Amazing Stay
The hotel was amazing, the view is spectacular and the room was very nice and clean. Not to forget how friendly and helpful the host was. Transferring the luggage is a hassle but they took care of it. The hot tub was beautiful and the water temperatures was right for the weather. The location of the room was very close to the sunset view and we didn't have to leave our balcony to see it. Thank you for an amazing stay.

We really enjoyed our time at Sophia Castle View Caldera View suite. It is one of the few, if only place on Oia where you can view the sunrise and sunset from the balcony. The views are simply amazing, and this suite really showcased them. Breakfast for 2 is delivered to the room in the morning, and covered us for lunch most days. This place is amazing, and worth checking out!

Most romantic suite in Oia: santorini.
As soon as I walked into the room: I was in love. This place was very clean. The view from the place was spectacular. If staying at oia, this place checks all the boxes. Bathroom and kitchenette was very cute as well. Kitchenette has utensils and sink. Bathroom has a shower with an open closet to hand clothes. The place also came with a safe, iron and ironing board.
