**Unique Cave House Villa by Cycladica: An Architectural Gem in the Heart of Oia**
Discover an unforgettable stay at this spacious and elegantly crafted cave house, perched along the cliffs of the caldera in the enchanting village of Oia. Part of a historic complex of traditional cave houses, this villa once served as Oia’s original bakery. Owned and meticulously renovated by a family of architects, it now combines sculptural aesthetics with modern amenities, blending tradition with sophistication in every detail.
**A Living Piece of Cycladic Artistry:**
Step into a realm of unique architecture and refined design. Originally restored by local artisans for personal use, the house showcases the perfect fusion of Cycladic charm and contemporary comfort. Its organic, flowing lines, traditional techniques, and carefully chosen antique furnishings invite guests to enjoy a stay filled with character and warmth.
**Private Bedrooms with Distinct Charm:**
- **The Romantic Cave Bedroom:** Originally an old cistern, this bedroom has been transformed into an intimate, cocoon-like haven. Situated a few steps below the main level, it features a grand, built-in emperor-size bed (200 x 200 cm) and vintage wooden furniture. An idyllic, secluded retreat for couples.
- **Master Bedroom:** On the opposite side, connected by a natural cliff path that preserves the villa’s original layout, the master bedroom has a private entrance, two windows, and a door for added privacy. Spacious and bright, it includes an oak queen-size bed (160 x 200 cm), a large desk, an antique bookcase, and a handcrafted mirror. Both bedrooms are equipped with high-quality latex mattresses for a restful sleep.
**Open-Plan Living and Dining Area:**
In the expansive, off-white living room, cozy built-in sofa beds provide a perfect relaxation spot (and additional sleeping space if needed). A handcrafted beech wood coffee table centers the lounge area, while the solid oak dining table and surrounding benches offer comfortable seating for up to six guests, perfect for enjoying meals prepared in the adjacent, fully equipped kitchen.
**Stylish and Authentic Bathroom:**
The bathroom is a masterpiece of local craftsmanship, featuring a deeply curved cave design with off-white stucco walls and Cretan marble finishes. It includes a luxurious handcrafted marble wash basin and a rain shower, offering both comfort and style.
**Breathtaking Private Terraces:**
The outdoor spaces are as exceptional as the interiors. Private terraces, spread across two levels on the edge of the caldera, offer numerous seating areas with varied perspectives of the stunning landscape. Relax in the whitewashed, semi-cave whirlpool, and immerse yourself in the serenity of the panoramic caldera views, with the volcanic cliffs, Aegean Sea, and sky merging in a spectacular display.
