One&Only Kéa Island, Greece’s most secluded and exclusive resort, has has joined forces with Ancient Greek Sandals, the esteemed Greek brand known for their handcrafted footwear, in a limited-edition collaboration that captures the essence of understated luxury, timeless style, and Greek craftsmanship.
At the heart of the partnership lies a shared passion for Greek heritage, commitment to quality and detail, and a philosophy that celebrates authenticity through minimalist aesthetics and artisanal excellence. This synergy has inspired an exclusive capsule collection of four sandal styles, that’s exclusively available at the resort’s NEO Beach boutique for the guests of One&Only Kéa Island to discover.
The collection draws inspiration from the earthy tones, natural materials, and harmonious interplay between architecture and landscape at One&Only Kéa Island. Designed to complement every summer moment—from daily excursions to explore the island and relaxed beach hours, to romantic evenings and sunset cocktails overlooking the Aegean—the sandals combine timeless elegance with a modern flair.
The collection includes:
- A versatile exploration sandal
- A comfortable poolside slide
- An elegant evening sandal
- A men’s sandal, designed for seamless transitions from swimwear to linen suits
Each design showcases Ancient Greek Sandals’ distinctive artistry, with details such as hand-stitching on chemical-free natural tan vachetta leather, waxed cord accents, and eco-leather straps with refined finishing.
“We feel a responsibility to simultaneously help our guests discover the magic of this unique island and to also give back to the place we now call home. For us, this is personal, and we are committed to placing the local community at the heart of all our efforts—highlighting the island’s authenticity, rich culture, and heritage”, said Jerome Colson, General Manager of One&Only Kéa Island.
“Designing this capsule collection during the winter had me dreaming of summer and imagining how I would wear each pair during my vacations at Kéa Island—a place that I have visited multiple times and holds a special place in my heart”, added Christina Martini, Co-founder and Creative Director of Ancient Greek Sandals.
This exclusive One&Only Kéa Island x Ancient Greek Sandals collaboration is more than just footwear—it is an invitation to experience Greek summer in style, comfort, and authenticity.
The capsule collection is exclusively available at the resort’s NEO Beach boutique.
