The cave-style rooms and suites, fully renovated in 2014, feature whitewashed walls, built-in beds, and handmade furnishings that echo Santorini's timeless aesthetic. Each air-conditioned space includes private balconies or terraces with sweeping sea vistas, spacious bathrooms with built-in showers, artisanal toiletries, and plush robes.

The minimalist design, accented by soft linens and local craftsmanship, creates an intimate, inviting ambiance for couples or solo travellers seeking a bespoke stay.
Guests can unwind by the sparkling outdoor pool, where the horizon melts into the Aegean during Oia's legendary sunsets. While the villas do not have an on-site restaurant, the nearby tavernas of Oia Village, just steps away, serve vibrant Greek dishes, from fresh grilled seafood to classic moussaka. The traditional fish tavernas of Ammoudi Bay, a short stroll down the cliff, offer authentic flavours with waterfront charm. A cozy poolside bar crafts refreshing cocktails and local wines, ideal for savouring under the starlit sky. For relaxation, curated experiences like private caldera boat tours or guided walks through Oia's cobbled streets immerse guests in the island's enchanting allure.
Nestled just a 10-minute walk from Ammoudi Bay and 11 km from Santorini International Airport, Oia Mare Villas offers a secluded yet central perch, placing guests within easy reach of Oia's vibrant village and the island's iconic volcanic landscapes.
