Sustainable Travel

1. Rooted in the land
Minos Beach Art Hotel was shaped by the soul of Crete. It has never expanded beyond its original footprint, choosing instead to honour the natural beauty that surrounds it. Every detail is designed to blend with the landscape, not compete with it.

2. Powered by the local spirit
From the chefs in the kitchen to the artists in the garden, the hotel is a celebration of Cretan talent. Most of the team is local, and every experience is infused with the island’s warmth, culture and authenticity.

3. Art with a purpose
The Sculpture Garden is more than a collection of works. It is a living space where creativity meets nature. Each piece invites guests to reflect on the environment and the stories that shape it.

4. Built to last beautifully
The design is simple, timeless and thoughtful. Natural materials, soft tones and energy-conscious choices come together to create a space that feels both luxurious and responsible. This is not just a place to stay, it is a place to belong.
