Georgios Samaritis
From his youth, Giorgos forged his path with steady steps and an entrepreneurial spirit, supporting his entire family. He brought to life the intimate warmth of “Romantic Corner”, the vigor and soul of “Brizoladiko”, and established a renowned restaurant and wine bar in the heart of Heraklion. He also served as the exclusive importer of refined “Pierre Cardin” furnishings. Αs President of the Heraklion Restaurateurs’ Association, he championed excellence across the city’s dining scene but then life and family led him along a journey that, as he says, became “a need that turned into love.” Today, at Alsus Boutique Hotel, he has found his sanctuary—a garden‑framed escape where shared moments, creativity, and genuine care blossom into unforgettable experiences.
Thank you for your support!
For over 13 years, Alsus Boutique Hotel (former Oasis) has welcomed guests seeking calm, connection, and effortless hospitality.
What began as a quiet family vision has grown into a serene adults-only retreat, where every detail is shaped by care.
Tucked just outside the city and a breath away from the sea, Alsus invites you to slow down and enjoy the essence of Cretan life — with thoughtful design, fresh local flavors, and the soft rhythm of nature all around.
Let your journey begin here.
A Word from Our Director: I simply love sparking ideas and building ventures—for others as much as for myself, otherwise I grow bored. A life without creation and sharing isn’t worth living. What thrills me most is when younger generations thirst for learning and growth, because in guiding them I learn anew. My children stand beside me, each adding their own spark to this ever‑evolving creation
