Our unbiased review
When deciding where to stay on the unique island of Santorini, one of the key questions you must ask yourself is whether you are a traditional or contemporary sort of person. Do you prefer to walk into a room and struggle to spot anything that is surplus to requirements, or do you like to have a touch of originality and homeliness about you chosen Santorini Luxury hotel? If you like the idea of staying somewhere that owes more to Santorini hotels than it does to an Italian designer, then selecting Santorini Canaves Oia Suites could prove to be an inspired choice.
Luxury Santorini hotels unbiased reviews from Greek-advisor.com
Canaves, when translated into English, means house carved into the rock and this is exactly what you get. The hotel makes use of 17th century cave houses carved into the cliff face, each one beautifully decorated with antique furniture, plush sofa’s and cushions, elegant carpets and intricately detailed metal ceiling lights. Each room has a separate living room and bedroom and what was once the kitchen in these homes has been converted into a well-appointed bathroom.

In most of Santorini Canaves Oia suites, the bedroom is set directly opposite the main double doors of your room and when the maid brings you your breakfast in bed, the doors can be left open for you to gaze upon the morning view. Don’t think however, that all the paintings on the wall and ornaments adorning the shelves means you must do without modern amenities; as air-conditioning and a flat screen Satellite TV as well as the normal mini bar, safety box and telephone are featured in each room & suites.
Luxury Santorini hotels local knowledge from Greek-advisor.com
This contemporary chic style of Santorini Canaves Oia suites continues as you walk around the hotel itself. Outside you ascend and descend little stairways, pass through arched doorways that although are essentially open to the elements, still take your breath away with the view of the Santorini volcano on the other side. Splashes of colour come from wall-climbing plants, which spring from white walls and the roughly cobbled paths. Venturing inside Santorini Canaves Oia suites brings you to a subtly lit tunnel which leads to a very welcome addition, that of an elevator.
