What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The vibe is postmodern ultra-luxe, mixing clean lines and modern colors with ornate, classic French-style furniture, the ultimate upscale signifier.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The property borders the quiet sands of Komitsa Bay, with private yacht cruises charting the coastline of Mount Athos.
The rooms
Suites and multi-bedroom villas sit amid Mediterranean gardens, many opening onto private pools with built-in submerged sunbeds.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Wooden sundecks extend over turquoise water, with integrated daybeds and breakfast trays served directly in the pool.
The spa and gym
An open-air glass pavilion houses workout gear, and therapists deliver massages on floating mats in the sea.
At the table
Glass-walled pavilions serve fresh Aegean seafood by the shore, and an open-air Champagne bar pours curated bottles at sunset.
How it began
