Our take
Ikos comes to Crete
Ikos Kissamos is the eighth Ikos resort and the first on Crete. It sits 2km from the fishing village of Kissamos on the island's far west, about 45 minutes from Chania, in a corner of Crete known for wild beaches like Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa island.
The grounds are the story here: 53 acres of lavender mazes, olive groves, sensory gardens and walking trails, with eight pools, including children's pools, and a splash pad. The food follows the Ikos formula, with Kriti and Fresco by Michelin-starred chef Ettore Botrini and La Plage by Michelin-starred chef Pascal Barbot, plus Dine Out at local tavernas.
Ikos Kissamos suits guests who want the full Ikos experience in a wilder, greener corner of Greece. Families get the pools, the Heroes clubs and a beach on Kissamos Bay, while couples can wander the lavender mazes and save their evenings for La Plage and Kriti. It also makes a superb base for west Crete, with Balos Lagoon a boat trip away. The first reviews since its April 2026 opening praise the food and the service.

What we tell every guest
- A Family Room is two interconnected Superior Double Rooms, which sleeps up to five and gives parents their own space.
- In the Deluxe Collection you can reserve restaurants in advance, and the Heroes Supper Club is included.
- Book the crèche and kids' club sessions before you travel: ratios are low, so spaces are limited.
- Ask us to arrange a boat trip to Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa island, at an extra cost.
- For a special dinner, make La Plage your first booking: Pascal Barbot's French restaurant sits by the sea, with Provençal flavours by day and Riviera-style dining by night.

Deluxe Collection: reserve restaurants before you arrive, and enjoy one dinner by the sea per room, per stay.
Kids & families

Clubs run indoors and out across the gardens and pools, and the restaurants have healthy children's menus. Spaces are limited by staff-to-child ratios, so we book sessions before you travel.

With little ones, we'd book a Family Room Private Garden: two connected rooms with terraces onto your own garden, so naps and early bedtimes don't keep you indoors. Tell us what baby kit you need, from prams to baby baths, and we'll request it when we book.
