Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews

By Axel Hernborg · Updated 3 September 2026 · How we review hotels

Canaves Oia Suites - Small Luxury Hotels of the World is best for luxury travellers who appreciate antique interiors and custom maritime charters. With a booking score of 9.5 from 88 reviews, the hotel features a private motor yacht for Aegean charters and suites styled with genuine antique furniture. Guests also enjoy a cliffside infinity pool overlooking the Caldera. On the downside, the cliffside layout features numerous steps, and its high popularity means reservations are essential.

Carved into the dramatic cliffs of Oia, Canaves Oia Suites offers a refined take on Cycladic luxury, balancing minimalist white architecture with curated antiques. The property excels in personalized service, highlighted by its private yacht charters and exceptional Caldera views. It is an ideal sanctuary for couples and design-conscious travelers seeking privacy in Santorini.

Guests score it 9.5 out of 10 — the average across the 17 hotels we list in Santorini is 9.4.

  • The dramatic infinity pool blends seamlessly with the Aegean Sea, offering guests an uninterrupted vantage point of the Caldera. It is complemented by attentive poolside service and comfortable loungers.
  • Guests can charter the hotel's private motor yacht for tailor-made excursions around Santorini and neighboring islands. This provides a highly personalized way to experience the Cyclades away from the crowds.

We had our wedding at this amazing hotel with our five daughters. It was an experience we will take with us for the rest of our lives! The hotel is a postcard at every turn with stunning views of the Aegean Sea. We selected and reserved the balcony before we were even officially engaged because we both knew that was where we wanted our wedding. The staff was so accommodating and we never wanted for anything. Our wedding coordinator, Margarita was the kindest and warmest person we could have hoped for and she made every wish we had come true down to the slightest details.

Our stay at the Canaves Collection was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, every aspect of our experience exceeded our expectations. The property is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views of the caldera, luxurious accommodations, and an atmosphere that perfectly captures the beauty and magic of Santorini. The service was exceptional. Every member of the team was warm, professional, and genuinely committed to making our stay unforgettable. Their attention to detail and personalized care made us feel truly valued throughout our visit. Our suite was immaculate, beautifully designed, and offered some of the most spectacular views we've ever experienced. Waking up to the endless blue of the Aegean Sea and watching the famous Santorini sunsets from our terrace were moments we'll never forget. The dining experience was equally impressive, with outstanding cuisine, fresh local ingredients, and impeccable service. Every meal felt special, enhanced by the incredible setting. Canaves Collection delivers the perfect balance of luxury, elegance, and authentic Greek hospitality. It is easily one of the finest places we have ever stayed, and we cannot wait to return. Thank you for creating such unforgettable memories for us in Santorini.

A breathtaking wedding venue with truly exceptional service. We had our wedding at the Panorama Balcony at Canaves Oia Suites, and it was everything we hoped it would be. The setting is almost impossible to describe without sounding exaggerated. The balcony, the caldera views, the sunset, and the overall atmosphere were absolutely stunning. Our wedding photos from the balcony are some of the most beautiful pictures we have ever seen. What made the experience even more special was Melanie. From the very beginning, she was incredibly patient, organized, kind, and thorough. She walked us through every detail carefully, helped us coordinate vendors, and answered all of our questions. The day before the wedding, she met us for a walkthrough and could not have been more gracious and professional. Her attention to detail and genuine kindness made such a difference. On the wedding day itself, everything came together beautifully. The venue was elegant, the setup was perfect, and the views were unforgettable. We could not have asked for better service or a more spectacular place to get married. Canaves Oia Suites gave us the Santorini wedding we had dreamed of, and Melanie was a huge reason it felt so seamless and special. We are incredibly grateful and could not recommend the Panorama Balcony more highly.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and couldn't be happier with our experience. The view was absolutely stunning, and the location was perfect, making it easy to enjoy everything the area has to offer. Most importantly, the staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive throughout our stay. They made us feel truly valued and went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable. We highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again!

We stayed here for our honeymoon last week and it was incredible! The view from our suite was astonishing! The hotel staff are so very sweet and helpful, and the housekeeping staff were so kind and on top of their job! Our room would be clean and tidy by the time we got back from all our excursions! They truly go above and beyond, not only with their housekeeping, but by making you feel welcomed as well. Breakfast was incredible at their restaurant, with the best servers and most DELICIOUS food (not to mention the most beautiful views). We loved getting to chat with the servers and tell them about our previous day and plans for the day. There are many stairs in this hotel, and many in Santorini in general, so just be prepared for a brisk climb whenever leaving your room! I’m sure it’s the case with all hotels in this area, and they do have an elevator for some floors. The only small complaint we had was that our plunge pool had many issues, which they worked on throughout the week. It never got very warm (it’s supposed to get up to 30°C), and the jacuzzi was not working for half of the stay. Nevertheless, the staff was very responsive on this issue and worked very quickly to get it fixed!

    Location was perfect. Right in the heart of all the activity but still tucked away in a quiet spot — guest, translated

    pools, beach & aquapark, condition & cleanliness, noise levels, value for money are mentioned too rarely in the sample for an honest picture — we don't guess.
