Luxury hotel Abaton Island Resort & Spa in a breathtaking location right by the sea
Enjoy the chic luxury hotel resort in Cycladic style directly on the turquoise-blue sea. Located on the north coast of Crete, Abaton offers elegant accommodation with stunning panoramic views of the Mediterranean. Pamper your mind, body and soul at the best spa in Elemis along with a selection of top restaurants serving Greek and international cuisine. The nymph Orte gave the island its name and Minos, son of Zeus and Europa, was once the king of one of the - then as now - most beautiful islands in the Aegean: Crete! And now, when it is becoming increasingly difficult to find a true hideaway, we have found you a veritable refuge for Greek gods: The Abaton Island Resort & Spa. Long before the beautiful, elegant hotel opened its doors in April last year, the Abaton was already rooted in the region. Designed, built and run by the Kaloutsakis family, it exudes attention to detail - ultra stylish, vibrant, sexy and chic.

"In ancient Greece, an abaton was a sacred place that was inaccessible to most people. An area in the Greek temple reserved only for the gods. Today, Abaton stands for a luxury that is inspired by and anchored in nature. All in white, probably the most beautiful and natural contrast to the sea, and with simple architecture, the Abaton welcomes you!"
