The Arion building, with its elegant retro design, houses four restaurants and the two-story Arion Duplex Penthouse, which features a rooftop garden, a private pool and unobstructed views of the Aegean Sea. In contrast, the Mid-Century Modern Nafsika building emphasizes light and clean lines, offering sea views from every room along with three additional dining venues, an expansive pool and a private waterfront area.
The spa, inspired by Hippocratic wellness principles, provides a comprehensive menu of treatments and therapies focused on relaxation and rejuvenation. Guests can take advantage of fitness facilities, beach cabanas, a salon, a relaxation lounge and a dedicated spa bar to enhance their wellness experience.
Activities and family amenities are abundant. The resort hosts a tennis academy, three private beaches, three pools including a saltwater option, and a basketball court. The signature Kids for All Seasons program delivers supervised activities and experiences for younger guests. A private pier accommodates visitors arriving by boat, ensuring seamless access from the sea.
Dining options are varied and curated to showcase international and local flavors. Guests can enjoy Italian cuisine at Mercato, Latin American flavors at HELIOS, Greek seafood specialties at Pelagos, and rustic local dishes at Taverna 37. For more relaxed meals, Avra offers informal dining by the water, while Astron provides a setting of casual elegance.
