Canaves Collection

The story of Canaves Oia begins in 1985 when Yiannis and Anna Chaidemenos transformed 17th-century caves, once used to store wine, into designer-chic luxury hotel rooms.

Few hotels have shaped modern Santorini quite like Canaves Collection.

What began as two restored 17th-century wine caves in Oia has grown into one of the island’s most celebrated hospitality brands, helping define the all-white, minimalist aesthetic that has since become synonymous with luxury in Santorini. Founded by the Chaidemenos family, the original Canaves Oia transformed former wine cellars into serene, designer-led hideaways that quickly became a favorite among romantics and honeymooners, eventually giving rise to Canaves Oia Suites and an expanding portfolio of exceptional stays.

Today, under the stewardship of Markos and Alexandros Chaidemenos, the collection continues to evolve while remaining deeply rooted in the spirit of the island. A stay at Canaves Collection is designed to be more than a beautiful place to sleep—it’s an invitation to experience Santorini through private yacht charters around the caldera, bespoke culinary experiences, wine tastings, and thoughtfully curated moments that reveal the depth, beauty, and magic of the destination beyond its famous sunsets.
