JW Marriott Crete Resort & Spa Debuts

JW Marriott will officially be opening the doors to its first Greek property, the JW Marriott Crete Resort & Spa, set on 100 acres of unspoilt coastline with panoramic views of the Aegean Sea. The five-star retreat, which welcomes guests from 16 June, blends contemporary design with authentic Cretan heritage for a luxury experience rooted in wellbeing, nature and refined hospitality.

The resort offers 160 spacious rooms, suites and private villas, each designed to embrace the surrounding landscape with calming, earthy tones and uninterrupted sea views. Guests can enjoy five restaurants and bars, a dedicated yoga and movement deck, and a collection of outdoor pools.

At the heart of the resort is Anoseas Spa, a destination in its own right. Designed as a space for stillness and renewal, the spa menu focuses on mindfulness and inner balance through restorative facial and body rituals. The facilities include a vitality pool, steam room, ice fountain, sauna and five treatment rooms, all set within a calm, minimalist space inspired by local architecture and materials.

In a curated partnership, Anoseas Spa has introduced a series of advanced treatments using products from Swissline, a luxury Swiss skincare brand known for its science-led formulations. Guests can experience four signature facials, including collagen-sculpting and oxygen-rich treatments designed to hydrate, lift and energise the skin. Select products from the range are also available to purchase at the resort boutique.

Kyriaki Sentouka, Spa & Wellness Manager at Anoseas, shares insights on the spa’s partnership with Swissline: “Swissline’s unwavering commitment to excellence and innovation beautifully aligns with our values. Their intelligently formulated products deliver exceptional results, perfectly complementing the rejuvenating and luxurious experiences we proudly offer at the newly opened Anoseas Spa. This collaboration marks a significant milestone for JW Marriott Crete Resort & Spa, and we are confident our guests will appreciate the transformative power of Swissline’s advanced skincare solutions.”

Located on the island’s northern coast, the resort offers easy access to cultural sites and natural beauty, but its design invites guests to slow down. Whether practising yoga on the sea-facing deck or unwinding at the spa, JW Marriott Crete is positioned as a retreat for those seeking balance, privacy and laid-back elegance.
