Architecture Pieris Architects

Buildings follow the slope of the land and roofs are topped with olive trees to create a natural extension of the surroundings.

This seamless integration not only enhances biodiversity but creates a unique, immersive experience—one where guests feel cradled by nature rather than separated from it. Here, one discovers a thoughtful harmony between form, function, and environmental respect. The style draws on biomorphic shapes, natural curves, and elemental simplicity and is inspired by Future Primitivism—a philosophy blending ancient, nature-based wisdom with forward-thinking environmental consciousness. 

Interior design Pieris Architects

Earth tones and organic textures evoke the four elements, grounding guests in a sensory, elemental experience.

The guiding design ethos was to create a retreat that embodies the “Art of Living”. Sustainability isn’t just a feature; it’s embedded in every aspect—from material choices to spatial layout and guest experiences. The use of arched openings, textured surfaces, and raw finishes reinforces a sense of quiet elegance, promoting serenity throughout the resort. From fabric and stone to unprocessed wood, every element has been carefully chosen for its eco-friendly qualities.

Well-being Wonderful wellness

From restorative saunas to handcrafted oils infused with indigenous botanicals, Tella Thera spa offers the ultimate in relaxation.

Take a soak in the spa’s indoor magnesium pool, which is known to improve sleep, reduce stress, and alleviate skin conditions and muscular aches. Then surrender to the expert guidance of experienced therapists whose rejuvenating treatments include balms enhanced with nutrient-rich extracts. Chromotherapy showers help enhance well-being, while color therapy and a variety of water flows reflect the hues of the natural world.

Food & Drink Nature and nurture

Traditional Greek and Cretan food, crafted from seasonal, local, and ethically sourced ingredients, is augmented by a stunning indoor/outdoor setting.

The hotel works closely with area producers to create a plant-forward, zero-waste dining experience that reimagines local cuisine through a contemporary lens. An olive tree in the center of the bar perfectly complements elegant drinks crafted from foraged botanicals and house-made ingredients.

Kissamos, in western Crete, is renowned for stunning beaches like Balos, Falassarna, and nearby Elafonissi, each offering turquoise waters and untouched beauty.

Rich in history, with archaeological sites and a local museum, Kissamos was once a Roman city. The region is celebrated for its olive oil, wine, and authentic Cretan cuisine. Surrounded by gorges, valleys, and mountains, Kissamos offers serene landscapes and scenic hiking. Above all, it embodies heartfelt Cretan hospitality and a slower, nature-connected pace of life.
