Minos Palace Resort

NAO is Minos Palace’s signature wellbeing method, inspired by the Greek word ‘nao’, meaning, ‘to flow’. Drawing inspiration from water as the essence of life, the approach blends ancient wisdom with cutting-edge science in the field of longevity. Built around four pillars: Nutrition, Sleep, Movement and Self-Mastery, it aims to slow and even reverse the ageing process through personalised programmes ranging from one day to two weeks.

Guests undergo detailed diagnostics (DNA, metabolic analysis, HRV, body scans, antioxidant testing) and follow tailored plans that include treatments such as cryotherapy, red light therapy, neuromodulation and vibroacoustic therapy. These are combined with emotional wellbeing sessions built on the HeartMath system, including meditation and breathwork, yoga, journalling and sound healing.

For those pampering, there's a wide selection of body treatments, massages and facials. The hydrotherapy circuit, meanwhile, features a vitality pool, infrared sauna with a Himalayan salt wall, hot and cold plunge pools and an emotional shower (extra cost). The resort also offers a fitness centre and tennis court.

There are 150 rooms, bungalows, and suites, including the newly introduced Blue Lagoon category, where private pools extend into a larger interconnected lagoon-style water experience, blending a sense of privacy with effortless connection. Designed in soft, neutral tones that echo the surrounding landscape, each space feels calm and peaceful. Plus, each room has stunning views of either Mirabello Bay or the Mediterranean horizon.
