About the location

Set in Costa Navarino, in Greece’s southwest Peloponnese, The Romanos Resort is the perfect gateway to explore new and authentic possibilities. Sprawling by the Ionian Sea, in pristine, yet easily accessible land of gently rolling hills of olive groves and vineyards, the region combines spectacular natural beauty with a fascinating cultural heritage spanning the millennia. 
 
Costa Navarino lies in Messinia, the gem of the Peloponnese. One of the most naturally beautiful regions in Greece, the resort is a vision of rugged hills, mountains and valleys rolling alongside the fourth-longest coastline in the country.  

Small clusters of traditional, low-rise buildings dot the landscape in between the resort’s manicured golf courses, with luxury hotels rubbing shoulders with Byzantine churches and classical temples. The fruits of Messinia’s landscapes make it popular with foodies; be sure to try the local olive oil, figs and honey.
