Tasos
Stefatos
Chef Tasos Stefatos brings over two decades of fine dining experience to the kitchens of Canaves Collection, where he has served as Executive Chef since 2019. A graduate of one of Greece's leading culinary academies, he honed his craft alongside some of Europe's most celebrated chefs — including stages at three-Michelin-star kitchens in San Sebastián and Cologne, and years spent at Hytra and Botrini's, both holders of a Michelin star.
At Petra, Chef Stefatos channels his classical training and deep respect for Greek ingredients into a menu that is at once rooted and refined — a modern expression of Hellenic gastronomy that has earned the restaurant the Golden Chef's Cap Award and recognition by the FNL Guide as one of the finest dining destinations in Greece.
Christos
Kalomoiris
With over a decade of experience in five-star hospitality, Pastry Chef Christos Kalomoiris brings precision, artistry, and a deeply Greek sensibility to every plate. Trained in the discipline of fine pastry, he has devoted his career to the craft of creating desserts that are as considered as they are memorable.
At Petra, his creations serve as a natural conclusion to the dining experience — refined, seasonal, and quietly expressive of the landscape that surrounds them.
Elina
Dakanali
With over 15 years in luxury hospitality and a deep passion for wine, Elina Dakanali brings both rigorous expertise and an intuitive sense of guest experience to every encounter. Educated at the International School of Tourism in Geneva and holding a WSET Level 4 Diploma alongside a B.I.S. certification in Wine List & Cellar Management, her foundations are as formal as they are far-reaching.
Her career spans five-star hotels, fine dining, and private service across Greece and Switzerland — from Grecotel properties in Crete and Mykonos to the celebrated cellars of Estate Argyros in Santorini. A certified Champagne Expert and trained in winemaking at L'École du Vin de France, she curates Petra's wine programme with a philosophy rooted in storytelling, terroir, and the art of the perfect pairing.

Service Values
Fire
The energy that carries the room. Every plate leaves the pass with intention, and the evening holds that same warmth from first pour to last.
Earth
Grounded and genuine. Hospitality without pretence, shaped by the land it comes from and the hands that tend it.
Water
Precision without ceremony. Service that reads the room, anticipates the pause, and knows exactly when to step back.
Air
A certain lightness. Nothing overworked, nothing rushed, an evening with room to breathe.
