A heavenly composition in the sky

With every Noruz, “new day”, the glorious Cretan sun shines its light on this blessed place. Our organic main pool is the heart of the resort. Made of Mylopetra, a porous element found only on Crete, it feels like sand on the soles and transmits the island energy as it shifts its color throughout the day, reflecting the playful sky.

Sunkissed and chilled music complement each moment as you breathe in the salty coastal air and enjoy magnificent views of the sea from a barstool inside the pool. Tranquility is dominant here during the day, but in the evenings, close to sunset, is when the real magic occurs.

Day dwellers, still in the pool with golden brown tans glinting at the fiery ball sinking into the indigo Aegean, are joined by others who have just returned from a day of exploring the island, or a party at one of the vibrant beach bars. Others show up dressed for a warmup cocktail before a wild night out in Chania, while couples watch the spectacle from their suite Jacuzzis that surround the pool. On the seaside lawn, some practice yoga. Expert mixologists finish masterpieces crafted to represent the view that inspired them at Raw Bar by Apallou, the first sushi dishes make their appearance and a familiar DJ you wouldn’t expect to see at such an intimate setting has just hit the decks. It feels as though we all know each other while we witness the divine sunset symphony in the sky. Tomorrow, we do it again.
