Ingrid, Margarita— The Heart and Light of Orizon

At Orizon Center at Akrimios, light is not just something that shines — it’s something that is given, received, and carried forward.
Ingrid, the heart of Orizon, shares this light through her passion for hospitality, welcoming each guest as family and inspiring a deeper journey.
She is the visionary behind Orizon Center — a guide whose love for life and people helps guests align with their true frequency. This alignment opens new perspectives, supports, and gently reconnects you with your authentic self.
Through Ingrid, you can experience: Personal Retreat — deeply individual time to reconnect and restore
Holistic Approach to Alignment — guidance that nurtures body, mind, and spirit
Transformative Alignment Practices — teachings that awaken inner balance and clarity
But Ingrid offers more than what happens within Orizon’s walls. She is a source of deep knowledge about hidden sacred places across Crete — places of special energy that invite meditative pilgrimage and spiritual awakening.
Whether you seek deep rest, personal growth, or a place to celebrate life’s moments, here you’ll find more than just a retreat—you’ll find a space where light is passed from one person to another, staying with you long after you leave.
Beyond the Map - Crete through Ingrid's Eyes
We will journey together to places that hold unique alignment energies:
The ancient Temple of Asclepius in Lissos, reached through a peaceful gorge, where your heart naturally opens to profound inner healing.
The Ancient Healing Spa, embraced by sacred trees, where outer stillness restores your inner harmony.
The Cretan mountains, rich in green alignment stones (serpentine), offering deep energetic nourishment for your lungs, heart, and chakras.
The ancient town of Aptera, where the theatre and temples uplift your mind and spirit with clarity and peace.
The Sweet Water River, inviting gentle walks that calm and reconnect you with nature’s flow.
The sacred beach in front of Orizon, part of the Earth’s energy grid, where Ley lines offer powerful grounding and spiritual alignment.
Every step with Ingrid is an opportunity to realign with who you truly are — free, joyful, and awake to life’s deeper purpose.

Location
Orizon Center at Akrimios is gently nestled just 20 minutes from Chania International Airport, with direct access from one of Crete’s main coastal roads. Whether you’re traveling by car, taxi, or public bus, arriving is simple — the journey itself begins to shift your pace.
A convenient bus stop serving the route between Chania, Rethymno, and Heraklion is located right at our entrance.
While public transport is available, we recommend renting a car to explore the beauty of Western Crete at your own rhythm — from quiet mountain villages and scenic drives to hidden beaches that lie beyond the tourist trails.
However you choose to arrive, the road to Orizon leads not only to a destination — but to a different rhythm of life.
