Wow, what a special place! Spiti Barbara is an oasis amongst the boutique hotels and apartments with fantastic views across to the Volcano, loads of space and a great courtyard to chill out away from it all. The top terrace must be one of the best spots on the island to watch the sun set and there are some great restaurants to stroll down to within a few minutes walk. We stayed here for a week as a family of five with three teenage boys and loved every minute of it. The house has everything you need, and Anette and Chris provide plenty of communication and advice to help you make the most of your stay. This is definitely one of our favourite locations and wed love to return in the future.

Detta grotthus var så mysigt. vi stortrivdes. vacker vy över Calderan...magisk. vi njöt av utsikten varje kväll. vi firade bröllopsdag med familjen och det kunde inte firas på en bättre plats...mycket romantiskt. passar inte barn enligt oss utan mer vuxenresa. vi hyrde bil hela veckan. smidigt men mycket trafik o trångt på vägarna. vi anlitade "Suntime travels" för skjuts till Firestefani från flygplatsen samt då vi skulle åka hem. Ordning o reda de kom punktligt. Hela resan har fungerat fint och snabba svar då vi kontaktat Chris och Anette. vi kan varmt rekommendera denna gudomliga plats

La maison a un charme fou grâce à son caractère authentique. Cest une véritable maison troglodyte très bien entretenue et bien équipée. Les deux terrasses en hauteur sont idéales pour admirer la vue. La maison bénéfice dun emplacement de choix et dune vue époustouflante sur la caldeira et le volcan. Firostefani est le meilleur compromis pour résider sur lîle car centrale et cest donc idéal pour aller explorer les différentes parties de Santorin.

Really lovely apartment, with stunning views of the caldera and sunsets from the Jacuzzi. Lovely spaces around the apartment with the courtyard, and inside spaces too. I would definitely recommend this location, a short walk down in to Fira and a lovely walk to Oia (~3 hours) for a lovely lunch.

First time visitors to Santorini and we picked the best location for seeing the island and Annette & Chriss house was a great base to stay whilst exploring. The house was well equipped with a pretty courtyard and endless views of the caldera sunset from the hot tub on the terrace. We arranged for the hot tub to be heated in advance of our stay and made use of it every afternoon as the October weather was cooler although still pleasant. There is a safe and laundry facilities. Its very much a home from home we loved our stay and would definitely return.

Stunning location and view. The house is a classic Santorini cave style house with all the amenities you could wish for. Two terraces and a jacuzzi that can be heated for a little extra to cover the energy cost...well worth it! We look forward to coming back!

A true gem on the Island of Santorini Spiti Barbara is a true gem. The view is breath-taking and the apartment is nicely equipped. Everything is accessible within minutes, but what sets it apart are the hosts who will assist you with everything. Beginning from transfer to day-trip-suggestions, they are a blessing. We couldn’t have wished for a better stay in Santorini.

Traumhafte Aussicht Wir wurden seit dem Tag der Buchung unglaublich interessiert und sehr nett betreut von den Hausbesitzern. Sie haben auf jegliche Rückfragen sofort geantwortet und konnten jede Frage zufriedenstellend klären. Alles lief unkompliziert. Das Haus ist wunderschön; die Lage einfach perfekt und die Aussicht wie ein Traum- unvorstellbar und besser als auf den Fotos. Die Vorbereitungen im Haus (alles beschriftet, ein Buch mit gesammelten Vorschlägen sei es Restaurants, Bars, Strände) waren sehr hilfreich. Der Weg zum Zentrum wo auch die Bushaltestelle sich befindet, dauert etwa 20 min wenn man langsam geht. Sehr zentrale Lage und dennoch mit der perfektesten Aussicht. Wenn wir nochmal nach Santorini kommen, dann sicher wieder Spiti Barbara :) die Betreuung durch Annette unsere Vermieterin und ihrem Mann Chris ist genau so wie man es sich vorstellt. Einen großen Lob an die beiden!

One of a kind rental! My husband and I decided to visit Santorini for our babymoon. We are so happy that of all the places to stay we choose Spiti Barbara. Our cousins and their 8 month old joined us and we had a wonderful week together. Photos cannot do this home and it’s location justice. We loved having the separate quarters as it gave privacy and convenience to both couples when needed and yet allowed us to come together for meals and hangouts either in the dining room, courtyard or one of the two scenic balconies. The space is clean and stocked with everything you need for an enjoyable and comfortable stay. There were times when we didn’t even want to leave as you won’t find a better view to watch the sunrise or sunset. We loved spending our evenings in the rooftop jacuzzi watching the peaceful sunset. The days were bustling and busy but the evenings were quiet and we all enjoyed good sleep and blissful relaxation. In the mornings I loved being able to just walk up the step to the market for my coffee and fresh fruit. Thira is a quick and easy 10 min walk (and I was 6.5 month pregnant!). We rented vehicles but found we didn’t really need them as everything was so close. Marina, the property manager was super helpful to us throughout our stay. She suggested and then booked for us two visits to the Lioyerma pool in Oia. We went twice because we enjoyed it so much the first time. And they treated us so well there! She also booked our catamaran tour of the islands and it was awesome! And then she would check on us periodically and it just made everything stress free having her so readily available. Our favourite restaurant was Volkan. It was just up the steps and then about a 5 min walk to the right. They had just started showing open air movies (hopefully they still are) as it was awesome! We enjoyed watching Mama Mia while dining on delicious tapas. All in all our stay was truly wonderful. You will not find a cave home like this anywhere that hasn’t been converted into a hotel. It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity and we really hope to return with our baby girl one day!

Beautiful house with magnificent views of the Caldera Anette’s house - “spiti” in Greek - is a unique place with unparalleled views of the Caldera. The place is very comfortable, easily accessible by all means of transportation, right in the heart of Firostefani - between Fira and Imerovigli. The hosts were very responsive taking care of all our needs and very thoughtful - they even welcomed us with a bottle of local Santorini wine! Marina, the hosts’ representative, who made arrangements for our transportation from the airport and met us at Anette’s place was very professional and extremely helpful laying out every single piece of information regarding the island and what’s worth seeing and doing within the 5 days of our staying. In summarizing, I would strongly recommend Annette’s place and the super-hosts Kris and Annette to anybody who wants to have a memorable experience of Santorini and I know for sure that I will definitely come back!

Lovely views and great location Spiti Barbera is an excellent choice with two terraces and a cool courtyard. It is well equipped and comfortable. The views are stunning - just as good as Its at a fifth the price. Booking was straight forward with every care taken to meet our requirement for a feather-free house because of my daughter's allergy. We loved the house and would definitely stay again if visiting Santorini. A special word of thanks to Marina for her welcome and handy tips.

A holiday gem A great cave house with history, but plenty of room to move and make yourself at home and comfortable. The walled courtyard is unique and adds to the charm. The views from the terrace are spectacular. Very adequate living room and well equipped kitchen. The house is very close to the shops and restaurants of Firostefani, and less than 10 minutes walking ( downhill ) to the main centre of Fira, and return ( uphill ) by a very regular local bus......easy trip. In all, a complete house in a wonderful location.

Very nice house in the heart of Firostefani The view from the terrace is simply awesome, especially at sundown with a glass of wine. It`s a pure "romance"! Although you are staying in the middle of hundred little balconies, you still have enough privacy because of the inner courtyard which is covered by a olive tree. The rooms have enough space to make your self a home. Even Santorini is not the cheapest vacation resort, the prices for the whole house are more than reasonable. Within ten minutes on foot, you reach the center of Fira (the capital of Santorini) with it`s nice little Shops, Bars and Restaurants. We`ve enjoyed our stay very much and will definitely visit Spitti Barbara again.

The place to stay in Santorini great rental This place offers a great value for the price and it is very spacious compared to other rentals around. The very nice courtyard made the difference we enjoyed having breakfast and dinner. The place has very nice energy and we had our best time in Greece. If you like Santorini and want to have your privacy that’s the place to go.
