Ikos Kissamos

Opening April 2026 on the unspoiled shores of Kissamos Bay in Crete, Ikos Kissamos redefines Mediterranean luxury with effortless style. Set across 53 acres of verdant gardens and a sweeping golden beach, the resort offers a serene escape where contemporary elegance meets authentic Cretan charm.

Seven gourmet restaurants, helmed by Michelin-starred chefs, elevate dining into a series of memorable journeys—from refined Mediterranean classics to international flavours, all paired with fine wines from the extensive Ikos Cava. For more casual moments, The Market presents an engaging buffet experience, while three chic al fresco bars serve expertly crafted cocktails under the Cretan sun. Ikos’ signature ‘Dine Out’ program invites guests to savour nearby local restaurants, all included in the all-inclusive package, adding an authentic local flavour to your stay.

The Ikos Spa by Anne Semonin Paris is a sanctuary of calm featuring cutting-edge treatments, an ice room, and a salt wall, designed to restore and invigorate. Families are thoughtfully catered for with a dedicated kids’ club, splash pad, and daily entertainment. Active guests can enjoy a dedicated sports area alongside complimentary canoeing and pedalos on the calm bay waters.

With eight heated pools, a private beach, and expansive gardens, Ikos Kissamos is set to become one of Ikos’ most sought-after resorts. It blends relaxation and recreation with a sense of refined ease, making it ideal for couples, families, or groups seeking both privacy and connection.
