Santorini, a paradise of quaint white houses, charming narrow streets, and awe-inspiring sunsets, is a destination etched into the traveller's dream. Yet, the island's popularity has led to crowds that can overwhelm even the most ardent explorer. In search of an alternative perspective on this Greek gem, we ventured to the northern reaches of Oia town. So get ready to discover Santorini's best-kept secret: Canaves Oia Epitome, the epitome of a luxury hotel Santorini experience.
A Hidden Gem in Santorini
Nestled in the idyllic fishing village of Ammoudi, Canaves Oia Epitome seamlessly marries traditional architecture with contemporary luxury. Situated just outside the bustling Oia town, Epitome offers a tranquil and serene haven for those seeking respite from the tourist rush and yearning for an enchanting and relaxing experience.
A Gracious Welcome
Arriving at the property around 2 pm, we were greeted by a warm and welcoming staff who promptly attended to our luggage and presented us with a delectable welcome drink. They offered insights into the resort's features, allowing us to savour our refreshments by the pool as we awaited our room's readiness.
Our Sanctuary
We got to stay at a two-bedroom pool villa, exquisitely adorned with all the amenities we hold dear: champagne, fresh fruits, and indulgent sweets. Our room, decorated with modern aesthetics and abundant natural light, boasted a colossal window that framed a breathtaking view of our private heated pool. The outdoor area featured a spacious table for al fresco dining and inviting chairs for poolside relaxation while witnessing the splendid sunset. On the ground floor, another room enchanted us with its subaquatic view of our private pool.
Breakfast Delight
Recognizing breakfast's paramount importance, Epitome exceeded our expectations. Served beside the pool, the thematic breakfast unveiled a daily surprise that showcased different flavours from various regions of Greece. This culinary journey offered a remarkable opportunity to savour the diverse tastes of the country, a gastronomic experience we wholeheartedly embraced.

Imagine a serene infinity pool that gazes upon the infinite expanse of the sea – that's precisely what Epitome offers. Each pool, not just the main one, is designed to captivate the hearts of romantic souls. Whether basking in the privacy of your own pool or at the splendid main pool, every day presents the gift of a magnificent sunset.

From the moment we arrived, the mesmerizing view of a seascape surrounded by Oia's iconic white houses left us spellbound. The staff's exceptional service and the delectable cuisine elevated our lunch into a truly memorable experience.
