CITRINE – An Elegant Escape to Remember
Some trips are planned for months. And then there are those that, the moment you arrive, you know were meant to happen. CITRINE belongs to that rare category of places that don’t just welcome you – they embrace you. From the very first moment, you can feel it: your days here will be different.
You arrive, drop your bags, and take a deep breath. The air carries the scent of the sea, the earth, and something else – the promise of slowing down. Sunlight spills in through the windows, casting a warm glow across every corner. The first thought that crosses your mind is simple: this is where I will rest, this is where I will live.
Inside CITRINE – Every space tells a story
The living room is bright and airy, a space that instantly invites you to relax. It’s where you’ll gather after a swim, sink into the comfortable sofa with a glass of wine, laugh over shared stories, or simply let the summer night’s stillness wash over you.
The open, fully equipped kitchen inspires creativity. Fresh local produce, fragrant herbs, a simmering pot – it’s easy to turn cooking into a daily ritual. And the best part? Whatever you make here, you can enjoy it in the courtyard, under the open sky.
The master bedroom is your personal retreat – soft tones, thoughtful touches, and the highlight: a private en-suite bathroom. Your mornings begin with a refreshing shower, and your evenings end with that luxurious sense of privacy and comfort you won’t want to leave behind.
The other bedrooms follow the same philosophy: comfortable beds, gentle fabrics, and an inviting atmosphere that makes friends and family feel right at home.
The Courtyard – Where moments become memories
If the living room is the heart of CITRINE, the courtyard is its soul. In the morning, it’s where you’ll sip your coffee to the sound of birdsong and the village slowly waking up. At midday, it offers shade and a gentle breeze, inviting you to linger over cool drinks. And in the evening… it’s pure magic – the scent of the BBQ, the soft flicker of candlelight, laughter flowing as easily as the wine.
And then there’s the pine tree. Standing tall in the courtyard, it offers its shade, its scent, and a quiet, grounding presence. Under its branches, time seems to slow, conversations deepen, and every moment feels somehow more alive.
Life in the village – Living at your own pace
Around you, Thymiana invites you to live like a local. A bakery with warm, fresh bread. A square where neighbors meet to share stories over ouzo and mezze. Here, everything you need is just a short stroll away – shops, a supermarket, a pharmacy, and cozy tavernas. And when you want the sea, Karfas Beach is only minutes away, perfect for morning swims or late-afternoon dips.
Chios – An island full of surprises
Staying at CITRINE puts the entire island within your reach. One day you might wander through the medieval maze of Mesta or the patterned walls of Pyrgi. The next, you could be diving into the crystal waters of Elata or discovering secret coves known only to the locals.
And if you love food, Chios will spoil you: ouzo with seafood by the sea, mastic-flavored dishes you’ve never tried before, and fish so fresh it still carries the scent of the salt air.

What stays with you
At CITRINE, each day becomes a small story. You won’t just remember the places you visited – you’ll remember how you felt. The morning light in your bedroom. The taste of that first coffee in the courtyard. The scent of the BBQ mingling with the aroma of pine on a summer night.
And when it’s time to leave, you’ll realize CITRINE wasn’t just your holiday home. It was the place that made you smile a little wider, breathe a little deeper, and live a little slower – exactly as life should be on an island.
