Calilo on Greek island of Ios is among the 9 hottest hotel openings in 2019, according to theclub.ba.com which notes that from castaway private island escapes in the Maldives to under-the-radar Greek islands and millennial-friendly urban crashpads in London, 2019 will be a bumper year for exciting hotel openings.
The Club “rounds up the new kids on the block” and describes Calilo as follows:
Calilo, Ios, Greece Opening: June 2019
While Santorini and Mykonos get the lion’s share of attention in the Cyclades islands, in 2019 eyes will turn to lesser-known Ios. Set in 1,100 acres of atmospheric scrubland, criss-crossed with winding trails, and groves where 485 olive trees (some 700 years old) facing destruction on the mainland have been replanted, Calilo will open on the private 300-metre-long Papas Beach. There will be 30 smart suites, each having a marble pool and Jacuzzi, and you can expect a restaurant serving homegrown organic fare. How to get there? It’s easily reached by a 45-minute ferry ride from Santorini.
