CALILO

Rising out of, and carved from, the native rock, Calilo is cradled by 1,000 acres of protected land and fringed by six miles of golden sand, lapped by a cerulean sea. 

In a remote corner of unspoilt Ios, in the heart of the Cyclades, and just a pebble’s throw from party islands Mykonos and Santorini, this 30-suite sanctuary offers an escape from the clamour and the crowds. Think sun-drenched seclusion surrounded by an ancient olive-pricked landscape – nature and art at its heart. 

Calilo is a tranquil retreat, a visionary conservation project – and one family’s vision. It is a place like no other because from the architecture to the interior design and the striking artworks and installations it is their creation, a family whose aim is to preserve, protect and nurture this tantalising land – and to share the dream and the island’s mesmerising magic.

Discover its playful vibe and unique philosophy. Relax, realign and reconnect with yourself – and nature. Feel the sand between your toes, the salt on your skin, the sun seeping into your bones. Sleep deeply, dream, linger. Just be.

PRESERVING AND RESTORING NATURE

Under our conservation project we have planted more than 55,000 trees and bushes around the island to restore the habitat that had previously been burned repeatedly by wild fires and land deforestation. In addition, some 485 ancient olive trees (most of them more than 300-years-old) which were about to be cut and sold for firewood in Athens, were transported across from the mainland by boat to Ios and planted in the property.
