Welcome to <br>Rocrita lifestyle beach resort
Welcome to Rocrita, a luxury lifestyle beach resort on the north coast of eastern Crete. Situated by the quiet traditional fishing village of Mochlos between Agios Nikolaos and Sitia, the resort is named after “Erotokritos” – a poetic romance by Vitsentzos Kornaros – and playfully references the rocky terrain of Crete.

Rocrita Lifestyle Beach Resort offers elegantly designed accommodations with modern amenities and breathtaking views of the Aegean Sea and the rugged Cretan coastline. Inspired by the nearby Bronze Age Minoan settlement, Rocrita takes its design cues from this unique historical influence. Elements such as the Disc of Phaistos, wooden throne replicas from Knossos, large clay pots, and tiled floors create an atmosphere that honours Crete’s heritage. The resort’s indigenous landscaping features trees, plants, and herbs, mirroring local flora and the deep blues of the surrounding Aegean Sea.


This design exemplifies Ella Resorts’ commitment to its four pillars: Locality, Sustainability, Lifestyle, and Gastronomy. Locality is honoured through Minoan-inspired design and indigenous landscaping. Sustainability is prioritised with eco-friendly practices and the use of local, organic ingredients in dining. Lifestyle is embodied in the wellness centre’s world-class spa, fitness facilities, and opportunities for local exploration. Gastronomy is celebrated through diverse culinary experiences that prioritise the quality sun-kissed produce of Crete.
As one of the premier luxury resorts on Crete, Rocrita Lifestyle Beach Resort offers a unique blend of ancient inspiration and stylish modern living, inviting you to experience moments designed to captivate, relax, and enchant.
