About the Resort
A Luxury Collection beachfront flagship at Costa Navarino
The Romanos is the Luxury Collection beachfront flagship at Costa Navarino — on the one-and-a-half-kilometre Blue-Flag Dunes Beach over the Ionian Sea, in Messinian and cubist design across 321 rooms, suites and villas, a hundred and twenty-eight of them with a private infinity pool over the sunset. The award-winning Anazoe Spa runs to around four thousand square metres of thalassotherapy and ancient-Greek beauty rituals, four signature golf courses and the Mouratoglou Tennis Center spread across the wider estate, and a Dine Around plan opens more than forty venues. An aqua park, kids' clubs and villas make it a natural multi-generational base, the Ionian Exclusive suites add twenty-four-hour butlers up to the six-hundred-and-thirty-square-metre Royal Villas, and four and a half thousand years of Messinian culture — the Mycenaean Palace of Nestor, the bay and town of Pylos, the dune-backed Voidokilia Beach and the castles of Methoni and Koroni — lie on the doorstep. The setting is the unspoilt southwest Peloponnese, amid olive groves near Pylos around forty-five minutes from Kalamata. It is the beach, golf and spa flagship of the Peloponnese. Seasonal, with an extended golf season.

★★★★★
“I had stayed at Four Seasons, One&Only and Velaa before visiting The Romanos, a Luxury Collection Resort, Costa Navarino. They are all magnificent. But this is different in a way that is hard to articulate.”

Amanzoe
Amanzoe is the hilltop modern-acropolis Aman resort — Aman's first in Greece, an Ed Tuttle composition of Doric columns and marble colonnades on a hilltop above Porto Heli, with 360-degree Aegean views and a private pool with every pavilion and villa. A flagship Aman Spa runs to nine treatment rooms, two hammams and a Watsu pool, a separate private Beach Club lies ten minutes downhill with four pools and watersports, and the resort's boats cruise to Spetses and Hydra. An outdoor amphitheatre stages moonlit yoga, the UNESCO Peloponnese — Epidaurus, Mycenae, Nafplio — lies on the doorstep, and Villa 20 (of Glass Onion fame) anchors the villas. Greece at its most private and rarefied. Seasonal, at its best in the warmer months.
Greece
Santa Marina, a Luxury Collection Resort, Mykonos
Santa Marina is the glamorous beachfront Mykonos resort at Ornos Bay — a Luxury Collection address on a private peninsula with the only private sandy beach on Mykonos and the world's first Buddha-Bar Beach, where DJs and the cosmopolitan scene gather. Twin infinity pools spill over Ornos Bay, around 115 whitewashed rooms, suites and villas run beach-chic with plunge pools in the higher categories, and a private marina launches yachts and speedboats to Delos and Rhenia. Mykonos Town and its boutiques and nightlife are 15 minutes away, the Ginkgo Spa keeps the calm, and weddings find a stage here. The beach-and-scene side of Greece — distinct from the cliffside sunset calm of Santorini. Seasonal, summer-peak.
Greece
Hotel Grande Bretagne, Athens
Hotel Grande Bretagne is the grande-dame Athens hotel — a Luxury Collection landmark since 1874 on Syntagma Square, the choice of royalty and heads of state, and the year-round anchor of any Greek itinerary. Its GB Roof Garden dines with the Acropolis lit before you, Alexander's Bar ranks among Forbes' best bars in the world beneath an 18th-century tapestry, and 320 rooms wear gilded salons and museum-quality antiques, 58 of them butler-serviced. The 1,140-square-metre GB Spa brings a heated indoor pool and thermal suite, a seasonal rooftop pool adds Acropolis views, and Syntagma, the Acropolis, the Acropolis Museum and Plaka are at the door. The culture capital, open all year.
