OKU Kos

GREECE

Bohemian Bliss on the Shores of Kos

Hidden away on the northern shores of Kos, lies OKU Kos, a sleek, midcentury retreat designed for those who crave both serenity and style. This adults-only haven feels like a secret well-kept, where sun-drenched days unfold between a private, powder-soft beach and the sway of palms. 

OKU Kos first opened its doors in 2020, followed by its sister hotel, OKU Ibiza in April 2021. While Ibiza pulses with an energetic, party-loving crowd, OKU Kos embraces a slower pace where beach days and barefoot luxury take centre stage.

Couples and friends drift effortlessly between saltwater swims and languid afternoons by their villa’s private pool. OKU Kos is a place to indulge in a pace of life dictated only by the rising and setting sun. The resort’s ethos of slow living is woven into every detail, from the mindful design to the farm-to-table cuisine. 

Inspired by the simplicity of traditional Greek island villages, the hotel blends raw, rustic textures with effortless bohemian elegance. Mornings begin with revitalising spa rituals or a slow float in the expansive pool, while evenings bring a pulse of energy—cocktails clinking under candlelight, live DJ sets, and a carefree spirit that lingers long after the music fades. 

“Our beachfront spot on the northern shore is perfect for exploring the island’s wilderness and sun-kissed beaches.”

Mediterranean Bites with a Fusion Twist

At the heart of it all is the hotel’s celebrated restaurant, To Kima, where locally sourced ingredients shape a menu of globally inspired flavours. Named after the Greek word for ‘wave,’ it effortlessly mirrors its oceanside setting. The menu offers sharing dishes, fresh salads and grills focused on local and Mediterranean cuisine with a fusion twist. From a hearty breakfast to greet the day (included in every stay) to refined bites into the late night, To Kima has everything you could need. 

Unwinding at OKU Kos

At OKU Kos, every room is a tranquil sanctuary, designed with a seamless blend of earthy minimalism and modern comfort. Inspired by traditional Greek island architecture, the spaces embrace natural textures, clean-lined furniture, and handcrafted details that echo the beauty of the surrounding landscape. Private outdoor areas—be it a sun-drenched terrace, a hammock-strung balcony, or a poolside lounge—invite guests to linger under endless blue skies.

Whether it’s a private villa with its own pool, a rooftop retreat with sweeping Aegean views, or a serene bungalow opening onto a lush garden terrace, each space is designed for effortless relaxation. 

Kos has a rich heritage of holistic traditions and a deep-rooted connection to wellness, which continues to inspire the hotel. Its spa and wellbeing area is designed to elevate relaxation, featuring a serene indoor pool, tranquil treatment rooms, and a glass-walled sauna overlooking a lush courtyard with glimpses of the elegant domed hammam.

The Island Awaits

Beyond the hotel’s tranquil embrace, the wider island of Kos beckons with its tapestry of ancient ruins, endless sailing adventures, and golden, untamed beaches. Kos is a melting pot of ancient cultures—Greek, Roman, Genoese, and Ottoman—which is evident across the island. 

Just a short ride away, Marmari Village hums with local charm, offering a glimpse into island life beyond the sanctuary of the resort. 

Whether seeking complete seclusion or a taste of Greek island culture, this sun-soaked retreat invites you to slow down, soak it in, and surrender to the rhythm of the Aegean. Whether exploring hidden coves or simply sinking into the stillness, OKU Kos is a place to exhale and just be.
