Caveland, hotel in Oia

Situated in Karterados, 1.6 km from Archaeological Museum of Thera, Caveland features accommodation with a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace.

I stayed at Caveland with family (my two kids and my mother). The room was much more spacious than I could have anticipated. I was expecting a much more smaller room, with several beds fit within the available space (based on past experience). Instead, what we got a essentially a small apartment, with two separate bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom and a small living room, all spacious, well equipped (e.g. air condition, wireless, towels etc) and clean. The balcony outside the room was nice for relaxing and also observe the kids in distance, playing in the swimming pool. The kids enjoyed the large swimming pool, it was ideal for the warmest part of the day when we did not want to move around in the island under the Sun. Breakfast was basic but more than sufficient. Everyone was very helpful and kind. The dogs were also a nice company. The village has few nice places to eat, or you can also order to get food delivered at Caveland. Overall, I hope that the fact that Caveland is listed as hostel in some booking websites is discouraging from some families to even consider it as an option - I instead cannot recommend it more.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Everything was very clean, location is perfect (in the middle of the center), beds have enough privacy because of the curtains, they arranged a shuttle to the airport for me, Diana was incredibly kind, the kitchen includes basic appliances, there’s enough plugs to charge all devices, … best hostel I’ve been to so far!

    The location. It had a nice terrace and was quiet enough in spite of being on top of a restaurant. The restaurant was cheap and the food was great. Super good atmosphere. The hostel is small but I still met nice people to hang out with.

    Brand new and clean hostel, in a great location - near the bus terminal and supermarket. Plus all the main streets are within walking distance - as well as so many restaurant options. The cabin beds are fabulous - such a great idea to have some private space alongside the bed and a cabinet. Loved that hairdryers are provided. Shout out to the lovely Donna who was a fab host, it felt like being at home.

    It's one of the best hostels I ever stayed during my travels. The location is right in the centre of Oia and next to the bus station. The dormitory is very clean, the bed is well equipped with curtain so you could have your privacy. Next to the bed, there is a small cabinet where you could store your personal stuff (please bring a padlock!). There is also a power socket and a night light for reading. Shared bathroom is spacious and clean as well. Overall, the arrangement is very thoughtful for the comfort of travelers.

    I highly recommend this hostel- from the staff to the facilities, it was exceptional. I was warmly welcomed and there was nothing the staff could do more to accommodate me. Most importantly, the dorm rooms were split into male and female, which as a solo traveler is very important to me. I felt safe, comfortable (the mattresses are amazing) and well cared for. It was also very pretty and well designed! I can’t recommend this hostel more.

    Fantastic hostel in a great location, very convenient next to the bus station. Feels very homely and more like an Air B n B experience than feeling like you’re in a hostel. Staff very friendly and helpful. Hairdryer now installed. Highly recommend.

    Eva was a great host, she made us felt very welcome and assured us that she’ll be there to help with anything we needed! She took the initiative to check on us daily via texting if all was good. Really appreciate it a lot! Great location! Less than 100 steps to the centre where all tourists goes to! Very convenient with all the Supermarkets and shops nearby! Nice restaurants all around that suits all types of budget! Lastly, Very comfortable bedding!
