Canaves Oia Epitome

There’s something enigmatic about Canaves Oia Epitome. Striking out on its own, you’ll find it not within the white-washed maze of Oia, but sequestered on a rugged cliffside overlooking the tiny bay of Ammoudi. An antidote to Santorini’s traditional sugar-cube towns, it nods to the island’s characteristic cave-like interiors but hints at an alter-ego with smoke-hued accents and bathrooms edged in ebony. Outside is darker still, where volcanic rock in sultry shades shroud serene lamp-lit courtyards and enchanting plunge pools where you can lounge like Persephone, presiding over your own scandalously luxurious underworld.

The hotel overlooks Ammoudi, a postcard-perfect port within minutes of bustling Oia.

Deluxe Suite with Plunge Pool

Thanks to their open-plan style, these bright 45sq m suites feel extra spacious and stretch out onto a shady private dining area, with a sun-bathed terrace and heated plunge pool beyond that overlook the jewel-hued sea. Rooms are understated but unmistakably luxurious: decor is a stylish combination of smoky greys and cloudy white, king-size beds come with pillow menus and ensuite bathrooms have rainfall shower heads. All suites also have lounge areas, flatscreen TVs, Nespresso machines and Acqua di Parma bath products. An extra bed can be added for €150 a night in low season and middle season (1 April to 20 May and 1 to 31 October) or €200 a night in high season (21 May to 30 September).

Interiors are white and whimsical with bold accents of charcoal grey and inky black. Each suite has a king-size bed with a pillow menu, an ensuite bathroom with a rainfall shower head, a flatscreen TV, a Nespresso machine, a minibar and Acqua di Parma toiletries.
