Full accommodation information
Hotel information
The hotel is nestled between two cliffs on the western side of Kéa Island, surrounded by olive groves and dairy pastures. The Adriatic Sea laps softly in the distance, its tide bringing in streams of yachts to the Beach Club. Both Athens and the Cyclades are in sight, too, beckoning you to their beautiful shores. You can admire these mesmerising views from the comfort of your idyllic villa, where the interiors mirror the bright colours and natural tones of the great outdoors. Each airy home-from-home includes modern amenities and a private terrace with a pool to take your experience to the next level.
Kéa Island a popular weekend hotspot for locals, and it's easy to access. It's just a 14-minute helicopter ride from Athens International Airport and a 30 minute journey on the resort's private rib from Athens Lavrio Port. From One&Only Aesthesis, you can reach the resort in an hour by ferry, or 80 minutes on a private rib.
Spend your days lounging on the beach, indulging at the holistic spa, or unwinding by the pool with a chilled cocktail in hand. Head over to the communal piazza to browse traditional stores, a reflection of the island’s traditional villages. You can find the finest local organic ingredients here, from salty fish to freshly pressed olive oil. These seasonal flavours are championed at the resort’s range of restaurants, including a traditional Greek taverna. Enjoy delicate pastries and heavenly seafood dishes at the main restaurant or, at the Beach Club, tuck into tasty sharing plates and chilled beverages that ease the day’s heat.
The intrigue extends from the resort to the winding pathways beyond. Take a hiking trail into the distance to discover some historical wonders, from ancient ruins to age-old churches. Climb aboard your private boat to access Athens or the surrounding Cyclades, or to visit the incredible Temple of Poseidon. Fill your days to the brim with exciting activities, or well-earned rests by the pool. Then, retreat to an evening of glamorous, candlelit dining under the stars against the backdrop of Kéa’s blue-domed churches and olive oil trees. You can fully privatise the resort for celebrations and honeymooners, to up the intimacy and make it a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
