- A few things -
Canaves Oia is set directly in the heart of Oia – a quaint, beautiful town representative of all that is great about the Greek Isles. The hotel is is warm and inviting, no doubt due to the fact that it’s one of few family owned and operated in the area. The staff is attentive and hard-working, just as you’d hope of a 5-star property and make your stay even more special. The rooms are a perfect combination of luxury and simplicity. And the sweeping views of the caldera are breathtaking.
There’s so much to do when staying at Canaves (even if you don't want to leave your seat by the beautiful pool). Their catamaran ride is a must– a fun and unique way to visit the different beaches on the island as well as the volcanic hot springs. The Santorini Sunset is one of the most captivating in the world.
All expectations were surpassed - Canaves is a dream!
