Stunning property and views. We didn’t like how difficult it was to find the hotel or parking. Clear instructions should be given on the process of finding the property in order to check-in. It was a bit cumbersome. They made up for the confusion with a wonderful room upgrade and bottle of wine. It was an extremely pleasant stay. We will be back again!

Thank you so much for your review! Your feedback is truly valuable to us, and we appreciate your kind words and the effort you put into detailing your experience.

Beautiful hotel. Idyllic view of the caldera. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was amazing. Our dinner the first night was delicious — and they surprised me with a cake for my birthday. The spa was also outstanding. Highly recommend. Only disappointment was a wine tasting they recommended (on their property; In the Cave at Petras. It Felt unplanned and rushed. Otherwise— we had a wonderful stay.

The location of the hotel is very nice! We stayed in a Superior Suite that was quite spacious and also provided excellent views from the balcony. Breakfast from an ala carte menu along with service is a welcome way to start the day. Overall, excellent service from the staff. Negative: The bedroom is dark as it has no natural light coming in directly and hence you have to keep the bedroom door open to get light. That probably is not a big deal given how spacious the unit is.

Amazing Stay!!!
I had an incredible stay at this hotel - in fact, this is my first hotels.com review but I felt the need to comment! The staff is incredibly nice and professional and welcoming and the breakfast/meal views are literally incredible of the caldera and the ocean views. The pool is great (it would be great if the main pool was heated though, but the pool experience is still great) and the breakfast was amazing. The individual heated pools on the terraces of the rooms are great - they are heated so they are more like jacuzzis. I had an incredible massage and spa experience at the Canaves Oia Suites hotel next door, which is where they take place. Highly recommend this hotel!! So quiet, relaxing, and beautiful. It was perfect for a couples trip.

Book it! Views, staff, and hotel were amazing!
The hotel is immaculate along with their staff! They went above and beyond to make my honeymoon spectacular. Right in the heart of Oia there were plenty of restaurants and boutiques to visit … although it was hard to leave the pool and resort. Only negative was the beds were slightly hard and the drinks were pretty expensive ($20-30 per drink). The food was absolutely delish, and we would highly recommend!

Greek Island Family trip
Really beautiful place, we stayed in the grand suite as a family of 4 ( teenagers) and it was very spacious. The staff are so friendly and helpful. We ate breakfast on our veranda with the most breath taking views. The hotel is in the perfect location. It is just on the edge of the pedestrian walk so not right in the heart of the restaurants and bars, so easy to get to everything but without the noise. I left my glasses out one day and the hotel left them on a cleaning cloth, such a lovely extra. Also left local treats daily. They really pay attention to detail.

The absolute best
I’ve stayed at plenty of 5 star resorts, this tops them all by a long shot. I would literally have paid double for this place. The staff was so friendly and incredibly helpful. John, the hotel manager, is an amazingly helpful person. Gave us his personal what’s app number and helped us procrastinators secure very desirable and hard to get reservations at ideal times. The views from this hotel are breathtaking. The breakfast, which is included, will ensure you’ll never want to leave. We stayed in the River suite which was so great to come back to after a long day of exploring and have our own decent sized private tub. I really can’t even say enough great things about this place. 5 stars isn’t enough. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We had an amazing stay at Canaves Boutique Hotel. The staff were brilliant, the views/location incredible, and the breakfast was excellent. There was a lack of wifi in our room (could only get it around the pool), but not a big issue when the hotel and location were so good. Would highly recommend this hotel.

What an amazing experience in the grand suite! The manager, John, and every single staff person we encountered during our stay went above and beyond to make our stay special. The views of the caldera from our private patio were stunning anytime of day. We especially enjoyed eating our breakfast overlooking the water - the coffee was excellent, as was the wide assortment of freshly baked breads and pastries. It was as easy to order food to our room as it was to dine in their casual but tastefully decorated restaurant. Canaves Oia Boutique Hotel exceeded our already high expectations on every level - the simple elegance of the room, the attention to detail (our phone cords were wrapped in Canaves branded velco each evening during turndown), and friendly and helpful staff eager to provide recommendations for restaurants and activities. We easily arranged transfer to and from the airport, spa appointments and even a car rental through the front desk. If you are looking for a truly beautiful hotel, with unbelievable views and excellent service, you would struggle to find a more perfect place to stay than Canaves Oia Boutique Hotel!

Daily in room Breakfast on the patio overlooking the calderas is fabulous and don’t forget to order a few cocktails during your stay! Their mixologist curated a decadent drink menu and it was Devine! A big thank you to general manager John Bubaris for going above beyond during our stay! His attention to detail is superb, he truly made our visit to Canaves Oia a memorable one.
