Canaves Epitome
Complete serenity and soul-stirring sunsets in a peaceful spot outside Oia, Santorini
Santorini is one of Greece’s most popular islands. Yet at Canaves Epitome, you may feel you have this enchanting isle almost entirely to yourself. This all-villa luxury resort is just outside the main town – and privacy, style and an almost zen-like calm are the order of the day. Then, as evening unfolds, the hotel reveals its greatest treasure: the best sunset views in Oia.
When you’re not gazing at the sky, you’ll find a lot to love about Canaves Epitome. From the villa interiors to the innovative rooftop terraces, the contemporary design captures the dusky hues of the surrounding volcanic landscape. Pick out your perfect lounge area and spend the day by the pool – and you don’t even have to leave your villa for this. Seek inner peace and rejuvenate with signature spa treatments. Then make for the fine dining Restaurant and lounge Bar for cocktails and world-class Greek cuisine.
Canaves Epitome may feel a little like a world of its own, but just outside, island life goes on. Wander down to Katharos Beach. Or hop on the shuttle into Oia. Morning and evening are quietest – giving you plenty of space to snap photos of blue-domed churches and narrow streets winding up the volcanic cliffs.
Enjoy your stay!

Independent Minds: Markos Chaidemenos
Carved into the volcanic cliffs of Greece’s most popular island destination, the Chaidemenos family saw something special in a set of 17th-century caves, once used to store wine. As one of the first families to introduce tourism to Santorini’s once sleepy fishing village of Oia, their vision of all-white, minimalistic suites not only shaped the Canaves Oia brand, but helped define the island’s now iconic luxury accommodation aesthetic.
