Carved into the cliffs of Mononaftis Bay in Agia Pelagia, on the island’s northern coast, it is perhaps the most visually striking resort I have come across.
Rebranding as an adults-only wellness resort back in 2021, its sister accommodation the ACRO Suites is located next door, but aside from the two properties, the spot offers complete privacy.
Alongside the resort’s signature restaurants, there are also various bars, including poolside venues and the Panorama Main Bar, where you can enjoy refreshing drinks with a view.
A 30-minute drive from Heraklion Airport and a similar distance from Heraklion city centre, the resort provides a secluded retreat while remaining accessible.
Reminiscent of a natural cave, it offers a unique setting with soothing lighting that instantly relaxes the body and mind, boasting a sauna, steam bath, indoor pool, massage rooms, hair salon and ice fountain.
