Ikos Kissamos is the newest addition to the Ikos collection, and it has been built around one of the most extraordinary natural settings in the Mediterranean.
On the Bay of Kissamos in western Crete, a region famed for its wines, olive oil and the secluded shores of Balos Beach, the resort has been designed not simply as a place to stay but as a landscape to be lived in. Inspired by the coastal curves and ancient Minoan patterns of the surrounding terrain, the grounds include sensory gardens, rain gardens, hidden play spaces, olive-tree plazas and pathways that make the setting as much a part of the stay as anything inside the buildings.
Six a la carte restaurants with menus curated by Michelin-starred chefs and divine pastries created by acclaimed pastry chef Antonio Bachour, eight pools, three open-air sunset bars and the full Ikos all-inclusive programme come as standard.
For those who want the newest and most considered resort in the Ikos collection, set against the most dramatic coastline in Greece, Kissamos is where that search ends.

Dining
Six a la carte restaurants and a Market bring together a diverse culinary offer rooted in the fresh, locally sourced ingredients of western Crete, with menus curated by Michelin-starred chefs throughout. The standout detail is the pastry programme by Antonio Bachour, one of the world’s most acclaimed pastry chefs, whose creations run through the dining offer from breakfast to late evening. At sunset, life shifts to three open-air bars where cocktails, fine wines and views across the Cretan Sea set the tone for the rest of the night.
Wellness
Eight pools, including kids pools and a splash zone, give the wellness offering at Ikos Kissamos more aquatic variety than any other resort in the collection. Drinks are delivered directly to sun loungers throughout the day, and the immersive landscape of sensory gardens, shaded pathways and olive tree plazas gives the property a restorative quality that runs well beyond the spa. Tennis, paddleboarding, live music and a full activity programme ensure that the days are as structured or as open as each guest chooses.
Activities
The activity programme at Ikos Kissamos takes full advantage of one of the most naturally rich locations in the Ikos portfolio. Tennis, paddleboarding, live music and an extensive outdoor programme run throughout the stay, all included without supplement. The former fishing village of Kissamos, famed for its wines and olive oil, is directly on the doorstep, and the secluded shores of Balos Beach are within reach for those who want to explore beyond the resort. The complimentary electric MINI Countryman and Culture Pass give every guest an easy way to discover the ancient Minoan sites, dramatic coastline and traditional villages of western Crete at their own pace.
