Acro Suites
Our concierge is here to help you choose the right room and answer any questions before you book.
Some hotels impress you the moment you arrive. Acro does something quieter. The cool stone beneath your feet, the filtered light, the silence and the sea beyond gradually encourage you to slow your pace without ever asking you to. By the second day, you notice you're walking more slowly, lingering longer over breakfast and happily losing track of time between the Bath House and your terrace. It is a gentle reminder that the spaces we inhabit can influence how we feel just as much as the experiences we seek out.
Place – Carved from the cliffs Perched above Mononaftis Bay, Acro feels as though it has emerged naturally from the Cretan hillside. Stone, sea and sky remain constant companions throughout the day, while every terrace and pathway has been designed to strengthen your connection with the landscape rather than compete with it.
The Bath House The Bath House is the heart of the retreat, bringing together hydrotherapy, a Byzantine-inspired hammam, Watsu pool, salt cave, sound healing and holistic therapies within beautifully crafted stone spaces. Together with the yoga shala and meditation platform overlooking the sea, it creates an approach to wellbeing that feels deeply rooted in ancient ritual while remaining quietly contemporary.
The Cretan table The kitchen celebrates the generosity of Crete through seasonal vegetables, mountain herbs, exceptional olive oil and produce from local growers. Fresh, uncomplicated dishes reflect the island's agricultural traditions, encouraging long lunches and relaxed dinners that become another expression of the slower pace of life.
The cave-inspired suites combine natural stone, handcrafted textures and private pools to create deeply restful spaces that feel cool, sheltered and intimately connected to the landscape. Mornings begin with sea views, while evenings are wrapped in a remarkable sense of stillness.
Acro Suites is approximately 30 minutes by car from Heraklion International Airport, making it an easy escape while still feeling wonderfully removed from everyday life.
Acro Suites is an adults-only retreat, creating a peaceful atmosphere dedicated to rest, wellbeing and quiet connection with nature.
Experience the Bath House, practise yoga overlooking the sea, enjoy sound healing or meditation, swim in the crystal-clear waters of Mononaftis Bay or explore Crete's coastline and traditional villages. Our concierge can also arrange private boat trips, hiking experiences and bespoke cultural excursions
Mononaftis Bay, Agia Pelagia, Heraklion, the Palace of Knossos and the island's mountain villages are all within easy reach, offering a wonderful balance of coastline, culture and history.
Acro Suites embraces architecture that works in harmony with the landscape, using natural materials, thoughtful design and locally sourced ingredients to create a way of living that feels deeply connected to Crete and respectful of its traditions.
