The Best Hotels Near W Costa Navarino, by the Record
-
Ninety-nine villas and suites tucked into a Peloponnese hillside above the Bay of Navarino, all curved modernist lines, terrazzo, rattan, and hillside botanicals that smell like a Greek myth. Mandarin Oriental's first Greek property holds a Forbes Five Star, and the property earns the hush: private plunge pools, yacht charters, cave rappelling, and a handful of exclusive restaurants mean very little reason to leave, which is presumably the point.
-
The W brand's signature playfulness lands on a spectacular stretch of Ionian coastline in Messinia, dialed back just enough to let the landscape breathe. This is a full luxury beach resort, so the rooms trade fluorescent-pink modernism for something warmer and more organic, which the Peloponnese rewards. A dazzling infinity pool and a lavish spa sit between you and the sea, with a golf course a short drive away for those who apparently need more to do.

Infinity pools stacked toward the sea set the visual tone at this family resort on the Peloponnese coast, where the grown-ups have a spa and the kids have their own pool, club, and a pottery wheel to terrorize. The restaurant leans into the region's olives, produce, and seasonal larder, best taken on the waterside terrace. Kalamata, Mystras, and the Mani are all within easy reach when the poolside eventually loses its pull.
-
A spiral staircase anchors the four-level spa, which opens into an indoor-outdoor pool that winds through the building like a maze someone actually wanted to get lost in. This holistic wellness resort outside Sparta pairs Byzantine landscape views with treatments drawn from both Western and alternative medicine, and a kitchen that tailors Mediterranean dishes to each guest's metabolic profile. The Michelin Guide awarded it one Key.
