Whitewashed houses in front of a bright blue sea – that is the image that most people looking for relaxation have in mind when they think of their dream travel destination, Greece. Many people don’t know that the beloved Hellas can look completely different than on the Insta Reels of Santorini. Completely different, wild and beautiful, the large Peloponnese peninsula awaits curious explorers in the Greek southwest. Blue sea meets white beaches in front of green hills… the Peloponnese is a place straight out of a dream. Here you will find the mythical Arcadia, the place of harmony and rural idyll. The sites of classical antiquity are concentrated here: Corinth, Sparta, Mycenae, Olympia – anyone who travels to this area far from mass tourism is spoiled for choice when it comes to the question of where to go first. On the west coast of the Peloponnese, not far from ancient Olympia, holidaymakers will find three very differently oriented resorts in the Riviera Olympia & Aquapark, which surround the largest water park that can be found in a Greek resort – here everyone discovers the right environment for their own, very personal dream vacation.
For the discerning: The luxurious boutique hotel Grecotel Mandola Rosa is located near the picturesque port town of Kyllini (14 km away). Even the most demanding guests will find peace in 25 magnificent luxury villas and 26 exquisite suites. The untouched private beach in front of the sapphire blue sea can be reached via secret paths that promise pure elegance and stylish comfort.
For wellness enthusiasts: The Grecotel La Riviera presents itself as the ultimate elegant spa resort, inspired by the famous thermal springs of Kyllini. With main and beach pools, a thalassotherapy center and a unique atmosphere, La Riviera offers all-round happiness for those who want to treat themselves.
For connoisseurs: At LUXME Grecotel THE OASIS, the “all inclusive” idea is taken to a whole new level. With a spectacular location right on the beach, an exclusive gastronomic offer and the 4,500 sqm Elixir Spa Center, travelers who don’t have to worry about anything and want to enjoy themselves at the highest level will get their money’s worth here.
For water lovers: The 20,000 square meter Olympia Aqua Park with record-breaking water slides, aqua towers and water rides promises pure adrenaline for everyone who loves speed and sport. For the very brave, there is the Looping Rocket, where you are shot 20 meters into the sky before falling back to the ground. Varied pool landscapes, the golden sandy beach and a huge children’s play area make Riviera Olympia an ideal place for family adventures. The Riviera Olympia & Aqua Park covers 500 hectares of forested land and offers numerous outdoor activities such as excursions, horseback riding, trekking and mountain biking.
Of all the resorts, the small port of Kyllini with its ferry connection to the fourth largest Greek island of Zakynthos is easy to reach – a fantastic tip for a day trip! With TUI Fly, Araxos Airport can be reached by direct flight from Stuttgart, Frankfurt, Munich, Düsseldorf and Hanover. From there it’s just a stone’s throw to this summer’s dream holiday!
