Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino

Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino, the brand’s first foray into Greece, seems almost like a setting straight out of a Greek myth. Tucked into the Peloponnese hillside, Mandarin Oriental occupies a prime location along the Bay of Navarino in Costa Navarino, a buzzed-about luxury development with golf courses, restaurants, hotels and even an agora, or marketplace with shops, dining venues, artisanal street food and an open-air cinema.The curved modernist design adds an air of timelessness to the property, which debuted in 2023. A blend of local building materials like terrazzo and rattan and mindful landscaping using naturally occurring (and pleasantly fragrant) botanicals complete the paradisical scene. At just 99 accommodations — all villas and suites — exclusivity reigns here. Secluded pool villas equipped with private plunges, curated experiences like yacht charters and cave rappelling, and a handful of exclusive eateries ensure everything you need is at your fingertips.
