"Outstanding service, food and attention to detail. We were upgraded to a 2 bed villa that was huge. The setting of the hotel, grounds and environment are immaculate. We can’t recommend more highly."

"We came to Costa Navarino initially for business, but we will leave with something far more valuable: inspiration. Costa Navarino is much more than another luxury destination. It is a carefully curated Mediterranean ecosystem where architecture, landscape, gastronomy, wellness and sustainability exist in complete harmony. What impressed us most is how naturally the entire Navarino project blends into the Messinian landscape rather than imposing itself upon it. Stone, wood, olive trees, water and light are woven beautifully throughout the resort, creating an atmosphere of understated sophistication. Despite the scale of the development: currently 4x properties spanning W, Mandarin Oriental, Westin and The Romanos, as well golf facilities and every amenity you can think of - the project still feels respectful to its surroundings and deeply connected to the land. The gastronomy deserves special mention. Not simply because of presentation and exceptional design, but because of the remarkable quality of the ingredients themselves. Some of the finest tomatoes we have tasted anywhere in the world and I mean it, exceptional local produce, fresh fish, superb meats — all elevated through true quite luxury in and simplicity rather than screaming. excess. The basil oil colour is just art. Couple the business/social lunches by the water, with beautifully lit evenings and the space creates moments that felt almost cinematic. The wellness aspect is equally impressive. The resort manages to feel truly restorative rather than performatively luxurious. Even our OURA metrics noticeably shifted from stress and fatigue toward relaxation and optimal recovery during our stay; something quite rare in modern travel. What also stands out is the ambition behind the wider Navarino vision: this is not simply a resort development, but a long-term investment in restoring and elevating an entire region. You can feel the intelligence, care and patience behind it. The setting itself is extraordinary — literally beside the water and the famous W - “Whatever/Whenever” team delivered attentive, warm and intuitive service throughout. Costa Navarino is not just a destination. It is an entire world of its own. Highly recommended. Superb work by AVC and team."
