RESORT OVERVIEW
This is the most upscale hotel on the Costa Navarino Estate, within the Navarino Dunes part of the Resort, within walking distance of the excellent Langer designed Dunes Course and adjacent to the larger Westin Resort.
The hotel has a wonderful ambience and the moment that you arrive in the front entrance and lobby you have a breath-taking panorama of the ocean beyond the hotel gardens, you know then that you have arrived somewhere a bit special.
The Romanos oozes quality in all aspects, great rooms, with lovely bathrooms, sizeable balconies and even the lead in categories have nice garden views inside the resort, some rooms overlook the Dunes second hole, the top rooms have infinity pools with close proximity to the beach front. The impressive Anazoe Spa is one of the highlights of the resort, with also a wide selection of superb a la carte restaurants, supplemented by the first class Pero buffet restaurant which also is where you take al fresco breakfasts with a wonderful array of hot and cold buffet every morning.
You can enjoy exceptional a la carte dining at venues such as Du Luigis, the Italian, the steak house Flame at the Dunes, the first class Armyra fish & seafood restaurant, as well as the exceptional Japanese Onuki and the Lebanese Nargile, it is a mouth watering prospect.
The Romanos has a superb beach access and is great for swimming and or some water sports, a little quieter than the Westin which is more oriented for families with children during the main summer holiday periods and half term periods. The brilliant Barbouni Beach Restaurant is also worth mentioning as it is a lovely place to hang out after a swim or some sun bathing, even open in the early part of the evening so one can see the sunset whilst enjoying some fine cuisine.
The golf at The Romanos is now unsurpassed in Europe, you have 72 holes all on one Estate, the recent addition of the challenging and eye catching 36 holes at Navarino Hills, with the Olympic and Hills courses opening in late 2021 and early 2022 means that Navarino is the best golf venue in southern Europe. A shuttle runs from the Dunes Clubhouse to the other 2 clubhouses at the Bay and at the Hills, a very slick operation.
Special mention of the very high-class service levels at The Romanos, in this post Pandemic World this is more the exception than the rule definitely, very good indeed.
