In the year 1894 our great grandfather owned two caves (in Greek “Canava”) which he used for the first process of making wine, meaning treading grapes. He even carved his signature on the wall of the main cave to be remembered by. As the years went by they passed on to the next generation and the next……We started to rebuild the two caves and eventually created a complex of traditional houses that are built strictly according to the architecture of the island. Today it answers to the name ATRINA CANAVA 1894 traditional houses. Our houses vary in size from 40 to 90 sq.meters. Volcano rocks create the external structure of the houses, giving the pool area a spectacular look and surround the whole compound creating the natural look of Santorini. Entering our facility you will find a breathtaking view with the whole island of Santorini lying before you and the stunning volcano gazing at you.

We are situated on the caldera side of Oia , with a volcano and caldera view . Childen are not incouraged due to the structure of the hotel ( built of a clif , low walls on the balconies ) but we do accept childen in specific suites only with the clarification that they are under the parents supervistion at all times( never to be left alone in the suite or in any area of the hotel ) . The shops and restaurants are all in walking distance from the hotel . To get to the other end of Oia it is a 20-30 minute walk at ,oderate pace My kindets regards Melanie Papadopoulou
