Description
Divine Cave Experience is a boutique cave hotel located in Imerovigli, Santorini, offering a unique stay with spectacular views of the caldera and the famous white houses perched on black volcanic rocks. The hotel features a range of room types from Standard rooms to Grand Quadruple Suites, many with private jacuzzis or pools overlooking the sea or mountains. Guests appreciate the hotel's design that combines traditional cave aesthetics with modern luxury, including amenities like a spa and wellness centre, an on-site restaurant and bar, and 24-hour reception and security. The hotel has a high cleanliness and amenities rating of 10/10, and its service scores 9/10. It only accommodates a limited number of guests at a time, ensuring a more intimate experience. Breakfast is served à la carte with a varied menu, and the restaurant offers stunning sunset views. While the location provides great access to hiking routes between Oia and Fira, the walking trail runs directly outside the rooms, which may affect privacy for some guests.
Location
Divine Cave Experience is situated in the village of Imerovigli, about 7 km from Santorini (Thira) Airport. Baxedes Beach is 4.48 km away for those interested in beach visits. The hotel lies between the popular towns of Oia and Fira, both accessible by walking (via established hiking routes) or a shuttle bus costing around EUR 2 per person. Nearby dining options include the Restaurant "Taverna Tasos," just 151 meters away with a solid 8/10 rating. The hotel offers free parking, which is convenient for guests with a rental car given the village setting. Its location on the caldera cliff provides exceptional sea and mountain views but comes with the caveat that the famous Fira to Oia walking path runs right in front of the hotel rooms.
Tips
- Book early to secure a room with a private jacuzzi or pool since these are highly valued.
- If privacy is a concern, consider closing curtains in outdoor hot tub areas as the hiking trail is visible from the rooms.
- October is a good time to visit for less crowding and pleasant weather, but bring layers for cooler mornings and evenings.

Reviews
We stayed at room delta, a nice cave room with private heating pool with whirlpool (jacoozi). No complaints on amenities, everything was just wonderful and perfect. Breakfast is served with what would you select a day before from a nice menu. We also had over dinner at the restaurant, which was great. Nearby you can find also great restaurants, for steak or fish or anything else.
We booked on the last week before the closure of the hotel at the end of season, October. Evenings and morning were a bit chilly, but days were just great, exact temperature, not hot , not cold. Only once briefly there was a rain for about 30 min or so while we were walking at Oia. So October is great, less crowdy, you can take sunset photos without elbowing other people. Definitely will book it for our next trip to this fabulous island of Santorini (perhaps together with some other island, Mykonos for instance).
It felt like the most beautiful area in Santorini. 🏘️
While waiting to check in, they even offered a glass of sparkling wine, which was incredibly relaxing!
The breakfast was also incredibly filling. This hotel truly maximized the experience of traveling in Santorini!
The reception staff was warm and attentive.
You could see the ocean from the door.
The room was very clean.
The hotel's location, beautiful views, and comfortable environment are all in one of the best areas on the island.
