Cape Sounio is a luxury resort brought to you by the incredible Grecotel Hotels & Resorts to Live brand. Located in the Athens Riviera and overlooking the legendary temple of Poseidon, this resort is a true idyllic haven where lush flourishing nature effortless blends with cosmopolitan elegance. With 2025 being an incredible milestone year for Grecotel, as they are celebrating 50 years of excellence as the leading brand in Greek tourism, you know you are going to get an experience which will not disappoint. Cape Sounio was, indeed, already fabulous enough but to make things even better the resort has recently undergone a property wide renovation!
Read on to find out more about this fabulous revamp which brings guests the Cape Sounio they know and love but with even better facilities.
This property wide transformation has certainly elevated and enhanced the entire guest experience. For any returning guests, the refurbishment will be evident from the moment they arrive. Stepping into the newly redesigned lobby and entrance, guests will be greeted by striking art and design pieces, setting the tone for an unforgettable stay. The lobby is also surrounded by a luminous site-specific installation by contemporary Greek artist Nefeli Massia, representing the Golden Triangle's ancient landmarks: the Temple of Poseidon, the Parthenon, and the Temple of Athena Aphaia.
The resort also now features a completely refreshed pool area, centred around the newly redesigned seawater Grand Pool. Adjacent to this pool is the freshwater pool designed for children, offering a playful and safe setting for the younger guests. Surrounded by swaying palms and spectacular views, the pool area now has an elevated design and atmosphere that enhances its already luxurious vibe. What’s more, a new restaurant by the pool, complete with an impressive open kitchen and signature wood-fired ovens serving a range of mouthwatering Mediterranean cuisine crafted from fresh, seasonal ingredients, offers an unforgettable dining experience both day and night.
Discover wellness like never before at Cape Sounio as you embark on a much needed journey of healing and happiness. The Cape Sounio Spa has been completely recreated, with wellness spaces spread out over 400m² and a state-of-the-art gym, all embraced by the serene pine-clad nature and striking views. The gym boasts top-tier equipment and private training sessions to help guests achieve their desired goals. Arguably the highlight of the redesigned Spa is the open-air hydro-tonic heated Therapy Pool which boasts mesmerising panoramic views of the stunning surroundings.
The resort has also introduced the much anticipated innovative, holistic wellness programme “Elevations of Wellness” developed by world renowned wellness expert and osteopath, Vicky Vlachonis. This programme brings guests a thoughtfully designed series of treatments and packages, with each level rising to meet ones evolving needs and goals. Expect to experience guided meditations in the rosemary and lavender scented grounds, dry brushing with Saint Supply oils, a range of daily rituals and tailored treatments. What’s more, unlike other more rigid wellness programs that limit caffeine or alcohol, Elevations of Wellness instead is focused on feeling better and enjoying life and experiencing the joy and pleasure of food. This means guests are free to indulge themselves at Cape Sounio’s collection of delectable restaurants.
Celebrating the property’s unique heritage and natural beauty, this renovation has marked a new era for Cape Sounio.
