The view from our room is priceless. The close proximity/location to the famous Oia Blue Dome is worth all the stairs we have to climb to up and down is worth it!

The rooms are beautiful with a gorgeous view. The walk and climbing the stairs up to the resort was a little tricky as I just had knee surgery but definitely worth it for the view and accommodation. The beds are extremely firm if you are used to a softer bed.

Beautiful location but have to be able to do stairs to get around. Seafood dining close, other restaurants up the stairs in Oia. Very convenient for a catamaran tour. Will stay here again, just to look over the water when you get up and go to bed

Lava stone is a beautiful property in Ammoudi Bay. Away from the craziness of Oia, it is an oasis on the Aegean. Hearing the ocean while you drift off to sleep is a luxury in itself. The hotel staff was extremely accommodating, welcoming and kind. Would highly recommend.
