At a glance

Ruby Red is a boutique hotel within the Out Of The Blue Capsis Elite Resort, a five-star complex on a private peninsula on the north coast of Crete, around 20 minutes from Heraklion next to the fishing village of Agia Pelagia.

The interiors put the emphasis on comfort with a traditional Greek touch, drawing on the natural colours of Greek marble and wood influenced by the Minoan palette. A private collection of paintings by Greek artists, antique furniture, statues, and ornaments from Greece and across Europe carries through the property.

The room range covers classic guestrooms and suites up to two-bedroom suites and the Presidential Suite, with guests also having the run of the wider resort’s beaches, six restaurants, five pools, and the Euphoria Spa.
