The Romanos Resort, member of The Luxury Collection, is the signature property of Costa Navarino (sister hotel The Westin Resort Costa Navarino is next door in Navarino Dunes) and every inch of it oozes sophisticated luxury combined with attentive service and faultless attention to detail. The hotel boasts contemporary styling, corridors of slick marble and atmospheric barbecue fire pits. The Romanos Ionian Exclusive are beautiful suites and villas which are a cut above the rest with contemporary stylish design and special added benefits and privileges such as butler service. There’s plenty to keep you entertained here, from the adrenalin-pumping activities such as amazing tennis courts at Europe’s first Mouratoglou tennis centre to biking, hiking and diving to the 4,000m² Anazoe Spa as well as countless classy restaurants many of which have received local and international awards. The multi-award winning Anazoe Spa is based on therapeutic olive-oil treatments called Oleotherapy® combined with ancient local practices. The cycle to Voidokilia beach (one of the world’s most beautiful according to The Times) is a memorable one. Four signature championship golf courses (18-hole), offer the ideal challenge for golfers. If you want to soak up the local authentic culture there are philosophy walks, olive and wine harvesting and village cooking lessons to add to your experience. In the evenings you will love the vibrant Agora (a traditional style village) in the centre of the resort which has cross-cultural restaurants by acclaimed chefs, shops and bars as well as occasional live music and a fantastic outdoor cinema for evening screenings under the stars. In addition there’s Sandcastle and Cocoon which are amongst the best designed clubs in Europe. Another highlight is the brand-new Division 16 youth hub and the recreation area with its own aqua park.
