The design concept
The Mitsis Rinela Beach project stands as a testament to the collaborative efforts between Mitsis Hotels and WATG. With a focus on delivering exceptional luxury and a vibrant beachfront atmosphere, Mitsis Rinela Beach has become a flagship destination for travelers seeking unparalleled comfort and unforgettable experiences.
WATG’s design concept for Mitsis Rinela Beach was rooted in the idea of creating a seamless fusion between luxury, nature, and the beachfront location. Our design team aimed to craft a resort that would celebrate the natural beauty of the surroundings while offering a contemporary and refined atmosphere for guests.
The design concept embraced open spaces, blending indoor and outdoor areas to ensure a harmonious connection with the picturesque coastal setting. By utilizing local materials and incorporating traditional Cretan architectural elements, WATG ensured that the resort would authentically reflect the local culture while maintaining a sense of timeless elegance.
Architecture
The architecture of Mitsis Rinela Beach captures the essence of Greek island living, with white facades and sleek lines that exude sophistication. The resort features a low-rise design, blending seamlessly into the coastal landscape. WATG carefully considered the spatial arrangement to maximize ocean views from every possible vantage point.
Landscape design
The landscape design complements the architectural vision, with lush gardens, cascading water features, and secluded enclaves that provided privacy and tranquility. The interiors seamlessly connect to outdoor spaces and onto the beach, inviting guests to indulge in the beauty of the surroundings.
Guest experience
At the heart of Mitsis Rinela Beach’s design philosophy was the desire to create a memorable guest experience. WATG collaborated closely with Mitsis Hotels to ensure that every aspect of the resort would enhance guests’ enjoyment and leave a lasting impression.
The resort offers a range of luxurious amenities, including elegantly designed guest rooms and suites, multiple dining options showcasing Greek and international cuisines, a state-of-the-art spa, and a variety of recreational activities. WATG’s attention to detail, from the selection of high-quality materials to the careful curation of lighting and furnishings, contributed to the creation of a refined and inviting ambiance.
Interior design
The interior design is a blend of contemporary elegance and coastal charm. From the moment guests step into the resort’s lobby, they are greeted by a harmonious combination of natural materials, soothing colors, and furnishings that foster a connection to the local culture.
The spacious common areas feature a seamless integration of indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing guests to soak in the stunning beach views while enjoying the comfort of the meticulously designed interiors.
The guest rooms feature plush furnishings, subtle coastal accents, and modern amenities, creating a serene sanctuary for relaxation. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated, from the carefully selected artwork to the ambient lighting, enhancing the overall ambience of the resort.
Sustainability
Sustainability was a critical consideration in the development of Mitsis Rinela Beach. WATG incorporated eco-friendly design principles throughout the project, implementing energy-efficient systems, utilizing renewable materials, and prioritizing water conservation measures. The resort’s commitment to sustainability earned it various certifications, including LEED.

The resort has received numerous industry awards and accolades, including recognition for its architecture, interior design, and environmental initiatives.
