Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group will manage a new hotel and spa in Costa Navarino, Greece, scheduled to open in Q1 2023.

The group’s first property in Greece – named Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino – will be located on the southwest coast of the Peloponnese and be part of Costa Navarino, a well-established tourism destination.

The hotel will comprise 99 guest rooms, including 48 pool villas, all with outdoor terraces and sea views, along with five restaurants and bars.

The property’s 1,500 sqm wellness facility will feature an indoor-outdoor pool with soaring bay views and offer the group’s signature wellness therapies with both indoor treatment rooms and outdoor pavilions.

The project is owned and developed by Temes, a developer and operator of high-end tourism and real estate destinations in Greece.

“We’re delighted to be opening our first property in Greece in Costa Navarino and look forward to sharing this striking combination of unspoiled landscape, olive groves, pristine beaches and authentic Greek culture in the region with our guests,” said James Riley, group chief executive of Mandarin Oriental.

“Mandarin Oriental is known for delivering exemplary service and exclusive experiences in its many luxury properties around the world,” adds Achilles V. Constantakopoulos, chair of Temes.

“We’re proud to have the group bring its hospitality expertise to Greece for the first time, signifying the further growth of Costa Navarino, which is becoming a top international destination for people to visit and to live.”

The guest experience at Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino will be further enhanced by the destination’s leisure opportunities, including water sports, biking and rock-climbing, as well as four signature golf courses designed by Bernhard Langer, Robert Trent Jones II and José María Olazábal.
