Stella Island Luxury Resort & Spa is an Adults only indulgent haven with an exclusive feel. Designed as the ultimate relaxation retreat.
Description
Situated on the coastal resort on Analipsi with only a 15 minute walk to the closest beach- the Stella Island Luxury Resort & Spa has a lagoon-style outdoor pool and a spa which stretches around the entire resort. There is also a fully equipped gym with personal training sessions for yoga and Pilates, and professional trainers to assist and encourage guests with their fitness regime.
Narrow bridges criss-cross a large lagoon style pool; where you can lounge in sunken seating areas, or on islands dotted with beds and hammocks. With no less than five exquisite restaurants, three bars (we'd recommend the poolside cocktails!) and live music in the evenings.
Book today to experience shimmering luxury without restraint, and blissful serenity, with breath-taking views and exceptional, gracious hospitality.
Please Note: The Fitness room is no longer in the Spa area. We have a separate indoor Fitness area, as well as an outdoor, shaded one called “Equilibria”.
