SUSTAINABILITY MEETS LUXURY
At Keras Cliff House, we believe that true luxury can coexist harmoniously with the environment.
Our commitment to sustainability is evident in every detail, ensuring your stay leaves the lightest possible footprint while embracing the beauty of Crete.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Our property proudly holds an A+ energy efficiency rating, underscoring our dedication to reducing energy consumption without compromising your comfort.
Solar panels, elegantly integrated into the large carport, harness Crete’s abundant sunshine to supplement electricity for your stay.
Thoughtful design elements, including powerful insulation of walls and ceilings and triple-glass windows, optimize the efficiency of cooling and heating systems.
ECO-FRIENDLY WATER PRACTICES
The landscaping features native and drought-resistant plants, requiring minimal irrigation and reflecting the natural beauty of Crete.
Outdoor irrigation relies on rainwater collected in a large cistern, ensuring responsible water use.
For indoors, agricultural water is purified through filtration, UV, and decalcification systems. Kitchen taps are equipped with an additional filtration system to provide pristine drinking water.
FOCUS ON LOCAL RESOURCES
The mansion is constructed from Cretan silicate stone, a natural material sourced locally to reduce transport emissions.
Many indoor and outdoor surfaces are finished with Kourasanit, a sustainable, Greek-origin material made from natural aggregates, pozzolana (lava), and hydrated lime. This non-toxic, VOC-free material adds both durability and timeless beauty.
Your sleeping comfort is elevated with COCO-MAT bed linens, toppers, and sleeping sofas, crafted sustainably in Greece using natural materials.
YOUR OWN ROLE
We invite you to join us in embracing eco-conscious practices during your stay. Simple choices, such as conserving water, switching off lights, or adjusting air conditioning when not in use, help make a meaningful impact.
By choosing Keras Cliff House, you have selected a destination where luxury and sustainability align seamlessly.
Together, we can help preserve the breathtaking beauty of Crete for generations to come.

WASTE MANAGEMENT
