One&Only Kéa Island

Although still settling in with greenery and vegetation only half way there, this will be the place to go in 2025. What a stunning location. The beach scene and swimming bay is world class. But still family friendly. The staff are very well chosen throughout. Professional but warm. The rooms and views are what you expect but the restaurant terrace encapsulates all that’s best of a Greek island at night. Stars galore, cool ambience, nice crowd. Yet it just opened so room to improve. The wine list needs some improvement for the clientele but the food is very solid. The island is not discovered … yet.

One & Only Kea a true Gem with all required aspects of high service , quality food , immaculate service , spotless rooms , well superb designed hotel makes wow effect every corner you go, gym is fantastic and healthy breakfast option is unforgettable

Perfection is difficult, hence the allure. Bond Beach Club did not have a few wines on the list, but that and a slight perfunctory level of service one evening apart this place is staggeringly rugged, beautiful, charming, clever and just about perfect. Let’s start with the check in - usually a dull, administration heavy affair. Not so here - overlooking the Aegean, with a drink to hand and being told in a relaxed and comfortable way what was on offer. The Villas are sublime - 3 distinct areas and a private pool with a view that if off the scale. Is there really that much sea? The hotel has been open 12 weeks, but the service levels would lead you to think that it’s been here for 12 decades, hugely helped no doubt by the influx of staff from the St Geran, the original mothership which is undergoing a refurbishment. The Beach Club has a pared down regaled vibe with music that gets a little louder but not too loud as the day progresses, with an interesting and healthy menu that delights. Trips to eat and waterski were arranged at the drop of a hat, with history and geography lessons dispatched on the way up and down the almost off grid road that connects the resort to the hotel. The gym and spa are seriously top notch, breakfast was incredible and then just when you think you have seen and experienced it all you find the secret bar with world class cocktails and an amazing cigar collection. And when you are done (never, but we all need to go home some time) the hotels speedboat whisks you back to civilisation. I am not easily won over - this place won me over several times over. Its amazing.

Perfect getaway for a few days. Rooms are truly stunning, beach is fantastic, and food is great. While there are some improvements that could be made, I do not see a reason to point them out as I expect the hotel will execute on them in the near future.

We had the most wonderful time visiting One&Only Kea Island! it is such a unique resort that has a magical, calming energy. Our only regret was that we didn't book a longer stay! We honestly can't recommend Kea strongly enough! Everything is world class!

I have now stayed at two One&Onlys. Everything about both was excellent. Physical facility was great. I don't know how Kerzner Group selects and trains its employees but interaction with them is the best part of the experience.

Unmatched service, gastronomy, facilities, staff, accommodation. Unbelievable attention to detail, the most pleasant experience of my life so far.

Very unique and isolated hotel. Amazing rooms and views. Service is mostly lovely (Except for the front desk manager) but generally overly attentive. The spa is absolutely beautiful, but far from rooms and only accessible by a long steep hike or the hotel buggy system, which they haven’t quite worked out yet. The hotel itself is about 20-30 minutes from the main town, which is only accessible if one pays for a car and tolerates very steep and windy roads to get there. The town itself is beautiful and picturesque. Hotel is best for people seeking remote feeling luxury and very attentive service. People who don’t mind either long up and downhill hikes to get to places in the hotel or don’t mind being dependent for the hotel for their buggy system and external transportation. Lastly, if you book a speedboat from Athens, know that the wind affects your ability to come and go which could affect airport arrival and departures, etc. This happened to us which ended up being quite inconvenient and expensive.

Just started our family trip here to the newly opened One & Only in Kea, Greece. An impressive and unique resort, that lowers your blood pressure as soon as you see it as you approach it by the resorts private boat ferry from Lavrio. Architecture respects the rugged, arid nature and rocky, hilly terrain. Had a wonderful dinner, woke up to this incredible view that rivals Santorini, did a spinning class outside with a group with a breathtaking view and ocean breeze and finished it off with a magical, most-penetrating deep tissue massage from Dishka… ordered room service for breakfast and will now head to the beach…I feel rejuvenated already and have yet to spend 24 hrs at the resort….
