An absolutely beautiful villa but very difficult to get to
Overall our stay once we got to the hills was amazing. The villa was clean and had a beautiful view. I have nothing bad to say about that. The thing that was terrible was our check in process. First we booked an initial villa and then they had to move us to another one which was fine but the property manager gave us terrible instructions on how to get to the place (3 different addresses that were in 3 different locations and in the middle of the road not leading anywhere)and we ended up stranded at a coffee shop for over and hour trying to get in touch with them. We finally got in touch with the rental company in London and they were able to contact someone staying at the villas which a are part of a hotel (we did not know this but it would have been great to know so we could have told people the name of the hotel when asking where our villa was) who came up and brought us to the villa. After that we had a great experience.
The staff, the view, the villa, the location were all so incredible! I would highly recommend!

Phenomenal
We loved our time at the villa. It was centrally located, spotless, and the property manager and staff went above and beyond to ensure that we were comfortable. But what I can’t get over is the view. Standing in the private pool overlooking the sea felt like something out of a movie, unreal—a memory I will keep with me forever.

Beautiful stay!
The house in Oia was beautiful. The view was incredible. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They arranged a car to pick us up from the airport. They carried our suitcases through the craziness of Oia. They brought us breakfast to our home every morning. And arranged for a car to take us to the ferry. If you are planning a trip to Santorini and you want to be right in the middle of all the beauty I would recommend staying here.

Absolutely Amazing!
The Santorini Villa was absolutely outstanding!!! The views were incredible! We were greeted and assisted to our villa which is just down from the main walking path. The living area seemed bigger than expected. The villa was very clean. The AC worked well. The master bathroom is very large and gorgeous. There is a little changing room off of the master bedroom with a full length mirror. The pool deck is huge and the pool appeared to be the biggest of any cave house. The villa is located near the blue domes for easy access for pictures. Many people have to search for/get in line for a view like this, but if you stay here, you have this view all day every day. The breakfast was served straight to our villa and the staff was very friendly and helpful. we would DEFINITELY book this villa again!

peaceful Oia villa
The villa is centrally located with beautiful views. The patio area and private pool are great - spacious and quiet refuge from the crowds. As noted in the listing, one of the three bedrooms is not air conditioned and must be reached by ladder. It worked well for a teen but would not be good for many other people. The breakfast was great and the manager was available by text to answer questions and arrange all that we needed. Oia has become a very crowded place with many tour buses, but it is still spectacular and staying in a place like this made all the difference in being able to enjoy the beauty.

Amazing Villa in Oia
If you're looking for somewhere to stay in Oia with an amazing view, great accommodations and superb service, this is where you want to be. The view - We were stunned by the view over the water looking to Fira and the volcano. The pool was a great place to cool off on a hot day and take in scenery. It also looks to be one of the roomier private pools in Oia. The walls on either side of the villa provided ample privacy to where other island visitors were not able to easily see into the space. Accommodations - the inside of the villa itself is very nice. We had 2 couples and there was plenty of room with 2 bedrooms on the main level and a large common space. There is a 3rd loft bedroom and I would say this is the only drawback as it was up a steep ladder with low ceilings, but a fine room for kids/teenagers. The beds were comfortable and I was able to request a softer pillow from the staff. Delicious a la carte breakfast was provided each day as well. Service - Before our trip, I was provided with a WhatsApp number for the Villa Manager. This was super helpful as she was able to set up private round trip transfers to and from villa. Check in was painless and the staff was amazing. Anything we needed from water, extra towels, softer pillows, etc. was provided promptly just by asking through WhatsApp. They also provided recommendations on local restaurants and winery tours that didn't disappoint. Moral of the story - stay here, you won't regret it.

Fantastic stay
We loved this property for a three day stay in Oia in Santorini. The villa is convenient to everything in Oia, but just far enough off the main path to avoid the tourists. The villa clean, well equipped, and very quiet. The hosts could not be more helpful. Everything about the visit was terrific.

100% recommend!!!
This is the location of a lifetime. Spectacular views. The views of the hillside and caldera are absolutely breathtaking from this private patio. We were literally located in between the 2 most popular spots for visitors to get a photo but enjoyed privacy from the well-positioned walls bordering our patio.
We loved the fresh, cooked-to-order breakfast served at our private patio. It was incredible to enjoy breakfast and coffee overlooking the caldera. I also want to mention the beautiful sizable pool with amazing views.
I would absolutely stay here again and will recommend this location to family and friends. All 3 bedrooms are large and beds are comfortable. Both bathrooms do have showers. My husband and I stayed in the loft. You must be thin enough to crawl through the opening but we enjoyed the view and the unique setting.
Fantastic location in Oia that's close to everything: restaurants, groceries, shopping, etc...
Staff is wonderful. I'll never forget this stay. It was absolutely amazing. Do not hesitate to book this location. You will be so glad you did!!

Perfect In Every Way
We feel very lucky to have chosen Villa Ioulia. The Villa is in a central location in Oia. We chose this as a place for 5 adults (age 50+) for a relaxing end to our European visit, and the pool and view was stunningly beautiful and relaxing. The staff made our stay even more comfortable, assisting with car services, meal deliveries, and answering many questions.
It's our pleasure to give a high recommendation to this property and it's management.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Aloia villas. Worth the experience and endless views. A healthy hearty breakfast is included every morning. All the staff but especially Eddie went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, from questions about the villa to things to do around the island. All the staff, in general were readily and easily reachable. The Infinity pool was amazing! Great way to cool down during the hotter days.
