A note from us

Two women sitting close together outdoors, laughing and enjoying each other's company. One woman is wearing an orange dress with layered necklaces, and the other is wearing a black t-shirt with jewelry. They both have curly hair, and one has her arm around the other.

Join MIIRA for our original trip, Sources.

A week in Crete, grounded in our Greek roots and life on the ground. This is home for us: we know where to go, what’s worth it, and how to move through it in a way that feels easy and real.

You’ll stay in quietly luxurious rooms in the heart of Chania with relaxed mornings and full, effortless days. Together with an intimate group of like-minded women, we’ll share the kinds of places, experiences, and moments we choose for ourselves. Beautiful meals, places that don’t advertise themselves, and time with locals, producers and creatives.

Unhurried days with just the right amount of spontaneity along the way, and the freedom to make the week your own.

This is where MIIRA begins.

We can’t wait to meet you.
