The house
MarriottSeaside social forum
Low-slung stone pavilions, contemporary Greek art, and day-to-night DJ sets create a lively seaside social hub on Navarino Bay.
“The muted palette cast by Greek architects Tombazis and Associates in wood, rock, and reed blends softly into the lavender-, jasmine-, and oleander-packed landscaped gardens.”

What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and Wallpaper*.
the accommodations wisely opt for something a little warmer and more organic than the fluorescent-pink modernism we remember from the urban W hotels.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The secluded Messinian coastline offers fragrant hill trails, the sweeping arc of Voidokilia Beach, and ancient fortifications overlooking the bay.
The rooms
Calm neutral interiors feature woven rattan lamps and bamboo headboards, while swim-up rooms connect straight into a 90-meter ground-level pool.
The pool and gym
Bring a swimsuit.
A beachfront infinity pool looks toward the setting sun, and the wood-floored gym includes treadmills and weight benches.
The spa
Daybeds sit against rustic stone in the relaxation lounge, and treatment suites open off quiet timber-lined hallways.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Parelía
Tables sit under timber pergolas and around an open courtyard olive tree, looking straight out over the bay.
the cleverly broken-down volume arrangement promotes natural shading and ventilation that mitigates the region's hot summers, while allowing a variety of outdoor areas in-between
At the table
Platía bakes regional pies at its stone deli counter, and the open-air round bar serves drinks at sunset.
How it began
Designed to evoke a traditional Messinian village, the waterfront retreat was built using local stone, planted bioclimatic roofs, and preserved olive trees.
