Costa Navarino
Costa Navarino is a sustainable, premium development in the southwest Peloponnese, set amidst one of Greece’s most beautiful and untouched landscapes. With unspoilt beaches, sapphire waters, ancient olive groves and picturesque villages, the Messinae region is a quiet corner of Greece, the perfect escape from the busy summertime islands and yet unrivalled in its luxury offerings.
The resort has been developed in two distinct sections: Navarino Dunes and Navarino Bay. Navarino Dunes is the setting for two luxury 5-star hotels, The Romanos, a Luxury Collection Resort, and The Westin Resort Costa Navarino, as well as the Dunes Golf Course, the Anazoe Spa, Navarino Residences, a state-of-the-art conference centre, the Cocoon children’s daycare centre, the SandCastle youth hub, the Agora authentic village, and the Navarino Natura Hall. Navarino Bay is home to the Navarino Bay Golf Course.
Taste authentic Greek cuisine and discover the secrets of the Mediterranean diet at Costa Navarino’s 13 restaurants, enter a world of pure relaxation at the vast 4,000m2 Anazoe Spa or enjoy an exclusive shopping experience at the development’s range of eclectic boutiques and concept stores. Sports aficionados can undertake a vast programme of activities in the area, from kitesurfing on Romanos Beach and driving at the Navarino Speed Experience Park to surfing, waterskiing, wind-surfing, yachting, scuba-diving and wake boarding on the Ionian Sea.
A golfers’ paradise
The Dunes Course is Greece’s first signature golf course, designed by former US Masters Champion and Ryder Cup Captain Bernhard Langer. This exceptional course offers panoramic sea and river views, with fairways running alongside mature olive and fruit groves. Similarly, the 18-hole, 70 par Navarino Bay course, designed by the legendary Robert Trent Jones II, provides exquisite sea views, with two tees playing alongside the historic Bay of Navarino. Winding through three alternating landscapes, from seaside to canyon to grove, the Bay Course is crafted to provide an unforgettable golfing experience. After a long golfing afternoon, players can take advantage of the facilities offered at the Dunes Club House, where the Flame Restaurant serves up premium steak dishes alongside fresh herbs and vegetables from the resort’s own farm.
