Hotel Description
Cape Sounio Grecotel Exclusive Resort …at Greece’s cape of myth

Cape Sounio Grecotel Exclusive Resort is more than a resort: it is an experience. Like the Temple of Poseidon, in plain view from the rooms, the resort is an extension of the Attica landscape that captures the essence of Greece.
Set amphitheatrically on a 75-acre estate in a pine forest at the edge of the Sounio National Park, Cape Sounio features 154 bungalows and villas, some with private gardens and pools. Imagine enjoying the Gods' nectar and ambrosia on the restaurant terrace, ambling down the path to the beaches, submitting to a relaxing massage in the Elixir Spa Retreat - all within 38 kms of Athens International airport and 67 kms from the Acropolis in Athens! There are sports and activities for all the family - from the unique Discovery Adventure programme for children to tennis courts.
