Crete is a fantastic choice for your holiday, famous for its sweeping coastlines, wild mountain landscapes, and deep-rooted heritage. Now, with the opening of Ikos Kissamos in 2025, the island will welcome a new chapter in barefoot luxury and wellbeing.
Set on the unspoiled northwest coast of Crete, close to the town of Kissamos, this new addition to the Ikos Resorts portfolio blends contemporary elegance with Cretan soul. Whether you’re a wellness traveller, a family looking for luxe resort, or simply in need of some time out, Ikos Kissamos promises to deliver an unforgettable escape.
The resort is ideally placed to explore western Crete’s beauty. Nearby beaches such as Balos Beach (only accessible by boat) are among the most photographed in Europe. Inland, you’ll find dramatic gorges, sleepy stone villages, and ancient ruins waiting to be discovered on foot, by bike, or with a private guide.
This quieter part of the island offers space to breathe, move, and reconnect, away from the bustle of some of the busier resorts.
As with every Ikos property, guests can expect the signature Infinite Lifestyle concept: a seamless blend of luxury, quality, and all-inclusive ease.

✧ Spacious Suites & Private Pools – Elegant interiors, panoramic sea views, and many suites with private pools.
