Welcome to Cemilion
A vibrant mosaic of unexpected surprises and hidden delights awaits you on the island of Koufonisi. Our picturesque retreat, far from being a traditional resort, is inspired by the enigmatic history of nearby Keros, where ancient rituals celebrated the purposeful breaking of marble figurines. Named after "Κειμήλιον," the Greek term for a treasured object, Cemilion is dedicated to creating unforgettable experiences that echo the lasting value of these historic relics. At the heart of the Cyclades, Cemilion stands as a delicate hideaway where heritage and refined simplicity converge.
The Grove
Our vibrant grove is a rarity among Cycladic landscapes; it is a true Aegean wonder, offering guests a refreshing and rejuvenating oasis on the rocks. Unlike the typical dry terrains of the region, our lush sanctuary features olive trees whose leaves rustle harmoniously with the sea's rhythmic waves, offering a tranquility that connects you to the ages.

At Cemilion, the morning fare is inspired by our surroundings, emphasizing farm-to-table principles. While we don’t cook meals, we ensure your breakfast is comprised of the freshest ingredients sourced from our grove and local producers.
