Tella Thera, Creta, Grecia

Tella Thera


Un santuario scolpito nella scogliera sopra l’Egeo per giornate lente e piene di luce
Incastonato nel fianco della collina sopra Kissamos, Tella Thera cattura quella luce che rende il tempo più morbido, quasi elastico. La terra scende verso l’Egeo, l’aria profuma lievemente di sale e pietra calda, e tutto è pensato per farti entrare in un ritmo più lento fin dal primo momento. È romanticamente discreto, naturalmente riservato, ma allo stesso tempo facile anche per le famiglie quando vuoi condividere la fuga.
L’architettura è parte rifugio, parte scultura. Le suite sembrano disegnate nella pendenza, con tetti verdi e finestre ad arco che incorniciano il mare come una cartolina viva. Dentro, l’atmosfera è fresca e avvolgente, fatta di texture in pietra e forme quasi cavernose, perfette nelle giornate calde e nelle mattine senza fretta. Ogni suite guarda l’Egeo, e le più desiderabili aggiungono una terrazza immersa nel giardino con una piscina che trasforma il “solo un’altra ora” in un’abitudine quotidiana. Se cerchi ancora più spazio, la Signature Villa ha una piscina a sfioro privata e ambienti dove sentirsi davvero liberi.
Qui l’acqua è il vero centro di gravità. La piscina principale è a sfioro, salata, e si fonde con la scogliera in modo così naturale che sembra che il mare sia salito fin quassù per incontrarti. Le terrazze punteggiate di cabana tengono il ritmo morbido, che tu voglia una giornata intera al sole o solo una nuotata quieta prima di cena.

Reviews
Amazing food. Great chefs doing fantastic job! We got here for the second year in a row. Also the place is very friendly to kids!
We spent a few nights here in July with my partner, and we can't recommend this hotel enough. We used it as our base to explore the western part of the island and its beaches, but honestly, we ended up wanting to spend most of our time right at the hotel. Every single detail has been thought through — the quality of the sheets, towels, and beds, and the food at breakfast and dinner was some of the best we had in Greece. The atmosphere felt so warm and familiar, and every time we came back we were greeted with genuine smiles and great recommendations for what to do and where to eat around the island — all of which we followed and loved. The hotel itself is beautiful. We'd absolutely come back again.
Here’s a polished review you can post: Tella Thera was absolutely amazing! The place was beautiful, the atmosphere was relaxing, and the views were breathtaking. Everything exceeded our expectations, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and unforgettable stay. I would thanks Irene, Jess from reception and Alex and Stratus from the services and also Marcos the Chief for for tasty and delicious dishes from restaurant.
We stayed at Tella Thera for 11 nights in July 2026 as a family of four and had a wonderful time. The service was fantastic from the moment we arrived - we were greeted and offered delicious lemonade, then taken to our fantastic 2 adjoining rooms with complimentary wine and nibbles before being left to settle in. We made good use of our outdoor private pool - which was a lovely temperature even though it was unheated. The front desk staff were incredibly helpful sorting out boat trips and fishing trips for us, booking beach clubs and restaurant. The service staff couldn’t do enough to help, even on the nights when the wine had been flowing too well and we were up late (after midnight) in the restaurant. The hotel opened up the conference room so we could watch the World Cup football play offs and final and offered service even then. The food and breakfasts(!) at the hotel were fantastic - but if I had one tiny gripe, it would be that the menu wasn’t changed often enough. Having said that the chefs were always accommodating to requests so we definitely didn’t go hungry. We had fabulous days by the beautiful pool and to top it off I had not one, but two incredible - best-ever(!) deep tissue massages from Asimina at the spa in the last week. My only disappointment was that i didn’t learn about the spa’s wonderful products until i actually ventured into the spa - if there had been info in the rooms, or they had been available at the reception shop, I would have purchased them earlier. We had the best time - and could not fault the hotel or its staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly and couldn’t do enough to help - even the guys on the golf carts who were always waiting in the car park to take you up the steep hill to the hotel. The hotel manager was always on site and was also incredibly friendly which gave the hotel a lovely welcoming feeling. I’ve seen the one horrible review someone else posted and honestly can’t understand why someone would be so nasty. It certainly bore no reflection to our stay. We would come back to Tella Thera in a heartbeat.
