Prepare to have your mind blown by the real-life beauty of Santorini. Forged by a volcano some 3,500 years ago, this Cycladic Island’s distinctive shape was formed when its former disc shape was blown asunder by an eruption that destroyed the Minoan civilisation, caused the Jewish exodus from Israel and rumours of Atlantis to swirl into consciousness. The disc’s remnant is now famed for its clifftop white-washed villages overlooking the formed-from-calamity caldera (a flooded volcanic crater). Perched on the island’s northern tip, Oia is one of the island’s most spectacular spots. Views of the caldera are what a trip to Oia is all about, and those offered at Canaves Oia Suites won’t disappoint.
A sophisticatedly simple hideaway, Canaves Oia Suites is all white curvilinear shapes, blue infinity pools, and orangey hues over the caldera at sunset. The hotel offers up two pools, a cave spa and an innovative restaurant. There’s also a lift to whisk guests up and down stairs – unusual in a Santorini hotel property.
Canaves Oia Suites is located within easy reach of the town’s boutiques, cafes and tavernas, but it feels like a haven from the town’s bustle and honeymooners taking pictures at the romantic blue-domed church. You know the one we mean...
