About Canaves Sunday
- The suites operated separately as Canaves Oia Sunday Suites and Eden Villas from at least 2017 before both were unified under the Canaves Sunday name in 2023.
- Canaves Sunday is run by Markos and Alexandros Chaidemenos, who took over their parents' hotel group in 2010 and have since expanded it across Oia.
- The eight-suite hideaway earned a MICHELIN One Key in the guide's 2025 hotel selections, Michelin's global hotel-rating counterpart to its restaurant stars.
History
Canaves Sunday belongs to the Canaves Collection in Oia, Santorini, a family hospitality group founded in 1985 by Ioannis and Anna Chaidemenos in restored 17th-century wine caves ("canaves") carved into the caldera cliffs. The group is now run by their sons Markos and Alexandros Chaidemenos.
Canaves Sunday is an eight-suite, boho-chic boutique property (formerly known as Canaves Oia Sunday Suites / Eden Villas) renamed as part of a new era for the collection.
The setting
Canaves Sunday puts guests toward the west of Oia, Santorini. Órmos Ammoúdi is roughly 9 minutes' walk. Sleep in Oia for the cliff and the walk. Fira and Imerovigli are sibling caldera nights if you want more restaurants and fewer sunset pilgrims.
