“The time is right to celebrate life and feel free. This is the concept behind the creation of Cosme. Our location, architecture, services and people open up possibilities, allowing guests to express their individuality and choose how they connect, imagine and enjoy. Partnering with Lush Experiences for our newest Paros accomplishment that follows an already blossoming affiliation for our Santorini properties, enables every aspect behind this concept, creating an awareness and reputation that only Lush can accomplish and evolve,” said Kalia Konstantinidou, co-founder and vice president, Kanava Hotels & Resorts.

Comprised of 40 elegant suites and a private beach club, the property also includes the expansive Elios Spa and Parostia restaurant, headed up by renowned Greek chef Yiannis Kioroglou.

Buildings were designed to reflect the traditional fishing communities of Paros, while paths throughout the property are meant to suggest a village-like atmosphere. Multimedia art, created by native Greek artists including Margarita Myrogianni, Terpsichore, Christina Mandilari and others, is displayed throughout the property.

Guests at the resort can enjoy exploring the surrounding village of Naoussa, set against the backdrop of the Aegean. At Elios Spa (named for the Greek god of the Sun), spaces include an open-air yoga pavilion, a pool and a wide selection of soothing therapies and rejuvenating treatments featuring the luxurious KORRES skincare line. There’s also a fitness center with state-of-the-art equipment housed in an inviting space constructed of Parian stone and wood.
