When we say Calilo is one of Greece’s best-kept secrets, we mean it. The charming resort is located in its own private cove on the island of Ios. The surrounding land (all 400 hectares of it) is owned by one family, so you won’t see another soul apart from the other guests.
The resort has been independently owned since its inception and was built with wellness at its core. Many of the rooms have their own private pools, but the Sea of Smiles takes the title of the top suite. This three-bedroom suite is located on the hillside, thus offering panoramic views of the sea. The outdoor space offers a waterfall, an outdoor natural rock shower and two swinging beds. The private swimming pool spans over 500 sq ft.
Take advantage of the sunrise yoga classes before embarking on a winding walk across the resort grounds, where the scent of wild thyme and oregano fills the air.
