Minos Palace Hotel & Suites
Guest rooms at Minos Palace are befitting their name: it really does feel royal-worthy here, albeit with a natural touch. Even the starting room category, 355 square foot Zen Double Rooms, are gems that would wow Gwyneth Paltrow-types with their stucco and handwoven finishes, balcony fronting the glimmering sea, and a high-tech KNX System that lets you curate your mood lighting and temperature at the push of a button. For honeymooners or those who just want to feel like one again, the 731 square foot Waterfall Suite with Private Pool is deserving of a splurge; you’ll have your very own waterfall-fed freshwater pool to splash in at your leisure. Whichever room you pick, expect luxe amenities—including robes and slippers, a mini bar, and a coffee and tea set up so you can fuel up for the morning from the comfort of your boudoir.
An adults-only hideaway on a pristine peninsula with a locally inspired spa, four dazzling locavore restaurants (including a beach bar), and an infinity pool fronting the sea.
Forgetting the environment. Minos Palace is run by environmentalist hoteliers Bluegr Hotels and Resorts and works tirelessly to reduce everything from water consumption to plastic packaging.
There are no kiddos allowed, and you desperately need some peace and quiet. On an island. In Greece.
The spa here is dedicated to beautifying your inside as much as your exterior—and you’re more than up for it. On the docket for today’s me time? A sound healing session, ayurvedic head massage to balance your chakras, and a rose quartz crystal facial. Aaaah.
