Stylish New Beach Resort Set to Open in Crete

Plan to escape the daily grind at Numo Ierapetra Beach Resort, an ultra-stylish seaside hotel in Crete that is set to make its grand debut in June. 

Set on a beachfront and surrounded by lush greenery, this serene and sophisticated space is home to designer rooms and suites with an earthy palette and outdoor living spaces designed to help guests relax and unwind. 

Location 

Numo Ierapetra Beach Resort boasts a secluded location, 10 minutes from the heart of Ierapetra and about 30 minutes drive from Heraklion Airport. Ierapetra is nestled along the southeastern coast of Crete and offers a laid-back small-town experience – perfect for those seeking peace and privacy on their next Greek island getaway. With Heraklion so close by you can easily explore the Palace of Knossos, the historic Church of Agios Minas, and the intriguing art and artifacts on display at the Heraklion Archaeological Museum.

Style & Character

In a sun-drenched, beachfront location surrounded by evergreen gardens, it is a luxury resort with earthy design touches and a serene ambiance. Private swimming pools and cozy terraces complete an intimate scene where relaxation and sophisticated design become one. At the same time, the cool vibes coming from the beach area add a light touch of excitement to the experience. With a thoughtful design that offers easy and enjoyable transitions between the bedrooms and the outdoor living areas; everything is designed to make guests relax. The warm, cozy atmosphere and carefully chosen interiors are combined with a natural colour scheme, finished with clean contemporary lines. 

Rooms

With sizes ranging from cozy to super spacious, all rooms feature furniture that’s relaxed and multipurpose, adding various clever touches to make the most of the space. Soft fabrics and tactile materials make all surfaces feel soft and inviting. Earthy and with a splash of freshness, the color palette was inspired by the light grey tones of the beach sand and the gentle greens of the native tamarisk trees that surround the neighborhood.

Food & Drinks

Sample a blend of Mediterranean flavours and modern innovation at Menoa restaurant, which celebrates its Cretan roots while serving artistic and creative dishes. The all-day restaurant Tamarisk offers fresh fish and premium meats, while those looking for a quick and light bite should head to Kafenè. There are also two bars, The Modern which is the lobby bar, and Mare Mare, the pool and beach bar, offering signature cocktails by the sea.

From relaxing, soul-soothing massages to invigorating beauty therapy sessions, the resort spa is ideal for those in need of some pampering. There is also an ultramodern outdoor gym, for hardcore training, as well as relaxed yoga sessions. There are also two pools- one for children and the other that’s adults only.

Anyone looking to spend days lazing on soft sands and topping up their tan, enjoying a memorable day of scuba diving, and getting to know Cretan cuisine across an array of seafront eateries. Also ideal for anyone in search of a relaxing base while they enjoy some adventure by car, foot, or bike. From the stunning vistas of Sarakina gorge to the endless green of Selakano forest and the turquoise waters of islet Chrissi, there’s a little something for everyone.
