My mother bought the house back in '79 while on an excursion, she was 26! Back then the cave houses where deserted after the big earthquake 1956, everybody moved to the big city of Athens. Those who stayed moved to the flat side of the island. The history of the caves-hyposkafa goes back to medieval period when the castle of Skaros was one of the 5 big fortresses of the island. After the pirates stopped crusading it was safe to leave the castles and they started digging caves and inhabiting the neighborhood arias. Imerovigli, Firostefani & Fira. The "round" shapes and the fact that you are underground automatically set you in another scenery. You feel protected from the intense sun, wind or cold the moment you step into the cave. Sensyo Home name was inspired by the word Senses… Each unit has a unique identity that reflects onto one particular sense: "Envision" the eye - window to caldera (Studio) "Cocoon" the touch - round like a big hug (Cave Studio) "Soundscape" the ear - waking up to chirping birds (Superior) "Gravitate" - for the sense we take for granted - you sleep so heavily, you think parts of you are falling off (Cave Apartment)

I am a graphic designer most of my life among other creative paths. Sensyo Home is a big part of my life that I want to share. I was working from Sensyo Home the first years and comparing my creativity to when I lived in the big city of Athens, I was multiple times productive and efficient! I am blessed to live in such a beautiful place. Living in a traditional cave home is an experience. The "cave" effect & the rejuvenating sleep one has in a cave!

The scenery here helps you focus and has intense energy. Most visitors simply fall in love with it and want to come again and again. Let alone the history of the island going back 36 hundrend years! • Firostefani village where Sensyo Home is, is a picturesque village with delish restaurants, traditional taverns and mini markets. • Fira town is only 7min walk where bus terminal and banks and clubs and big market is located. • You can easily walk to Skaros Medieval castle ruins max 30min walk • Visit Archaeological or Prehistorical or Wall-Paintings "Frescoes" Museum is 10-15min walk • To visit Oia village you just take the bus 2 min from Sensyo Home. Sharing is powerful, we are blessed to live on this beautiful island and blessed to have all this love from travellers across the continent. You and your loved ones are more than welcome to share!
