Situated on the Peloponnese peninsula, The Romanos Resort is a glossy purpose-built hotel in a
largely undiscovered corner of Greece set in acres of lavender fields dotted with olive trees and
overlooking miles of unspoilt beach.

The Romanos Resort, member of The Luxury Collection, is the signature property of Costa Navarino 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 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 (with padel and pickleball) 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 accolades. 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, whilst in the summer there are the sports academies by NBA Basketball and Bayern Football.

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 kids clubs in Europe. Another highlight is the brand-new Division 16 youth hub and the recreation area with its own aqua park.

Impeccable service, lovely rooms

Impeccable service, lovely rooms, lots to do and a good range of delicious restaurants to choose from made this an extremely happy holiday indeed! I worried that the size of the site would mean that it all felt very crowded but lots of space and clever design meant it never was. Breakfast was heaven – literally the best orange juice I have ever tasted and a dizzying array of options. My only tip would be to decide which restaurants you would like to try then book as soon as you can as they can get quite busy and fully booked. We will definitely be returning!

Beautiful public areas, lovely pools, nice rooms, helpful staff, lots to do (water slides, water sports, bowling, go karting and so on). The slight let down was the food: the Italian was fine but not special, the Lebanese nice, the steak place very good but incredibly expensive, the taverna weird. A shame not to have anywhere doing really nice, traditional Greek food. It was hard to get restaurant bookings too, places filling up 3 or 4 days ahead. A pity the beach restaurant doesn`t open in the evening too. On balance a very nice holiday though and we would happily go back.

I would definitely go back…

I would say overall the resort is amazing and I would definitely go back there. The facilities are excellent and a kids` paradise (so adults too!!). My one issue is the quality of food for the price charged – the restaurants are not good enough and very average at best. Flame was very good, Inbi was super-expensive and a beautiful setting but way overpriced, while others were ok.

Fab hotel, so much for the kids to do….
