Discover Ikos Kissamos: Crete’s brand-new luxury masterpiece
A secluded sanctuary in Western Crete
Amongst the largely unspoilt landscapes of western Crete, Ikos Kissamos offers a true sanctuary that feels far removed from the stresses of everyday life. Surrounded by 53 acres of fragrant gardens and lined by 594 metres of golden, sandy beach, the resort’s setting is a dream come true for nature lovers.
Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by a landscape inspired by Crete’s ancient Minoan heritage and coastal beauty. From soft dunes to gentle curves and rhythms that echo the Aegean Sea, every corner of Ikos Kissamos invites you to pause, breathe, and enjoy your surroundings. Whether you’re basking in the warm Mediterranean sun by one of the eight outdoor heated pools or wandering through the lush gardens, this retreat promises to replenish both body and mind.
Infinite luxury with outstanding personalised service
What sets Ikos Resorts apart is their unwavering dedication to luxury and exceptional service, and Ikos Kissamos is no exception. From the moment you arrive to the final sunset of your stay, every detail is handled with thoughtfulness and care. True to the award-winning Ikos ethos, service here is always intuitive and tailor-made for you.
At Ikos Kissamos, luxury means Michelin-starred dining experiences, a locally inspired ‘dine out’ programme, 24-hour room service, and even having a Tesla at your disposal to explore the island. Your complimentary minibar is refreshed daily, so you’re free to sip on your favourite drinks whenever the mood strikes. It’s the kind of care and attention to detail that lets you completely unwind.
Culinary journeys that awaken the senses
Foodies will be in heaven at Ikos Kissamos, where dining is an integral part of the experience. The resort boasts six à la carte restaurants, some classic Ikos favourites like Anaya, but also some new offerings like Kriti which serves up fresh, local, Cretan style cuisine. After dinner, relax with a cocktail at one of the five stylish resort bars, where expert bartenders craft drinks as elegant as the surroundings.
