Located in Crete is an adults-only luxury stay which – as we’ve been very upfront about in the headline above – resembles heaven on Earth; a place that’s unforgettable after the most momentary of glances. This is Stella Island Resort, and here’s why it’ll likely be the first place everyone will head to after COVID-19 officially blows over.
Stella Island Resort has all the trappings of your usual sanctuary to wellbeing – indoor pools, Jacuzzis, spa treatments, hot stone massages, rejuvenation packages, stellar wining & dining options, etc. But the undisputed highlight setting it apart from the competition is the lagoon-style pool + lounge islands which spans across the entire resort, leaving ample room for each and every guest to find their own private corner; as well as the rather unique inclusion of Overwater Villas & Bungalows.
The pool practically speaks for itself. As a replica of the ocean, there’s a substantial bit of real estate to enjoy here. You can seek refuge in a sunken lounge under the sun, find a hammock set up elsewhere to cool off in the shade post-dip, or simply float down yonder on a raft-like a yuppy Huckleberry Finn. And if you happen to float a little further than you’d planned, there’s no need to worry. Everything is well-connected enough that your return home is just a few paddles/a short stroll away.
The levels of accommodation Stella Island Resort offers are as follows:
