After raising funds and investing his own money, he’s driving a restoration project to preserve a culture and connection with the past in his mountain village, Kalopanayiotis. Unlike any other hotel in the world, guests at Casale Panayiotis are truly immersed in the village’s aura, with most rooms enjoying glorious mountain views or private courtyard gardens. The three res- taurants serve fresh, delectable dishes, sourced from the local area as far as possible, with views that mark you for life. A full breakfast is served each morning. The award-winning Myrianthousa Spa is one-of-a- kind, with its hydrotherapy pool, thermal suite, snow cabin, Rhassoul mud and seven treatment rooms, including a luxurious couple’s suite with private out- door whirlpool. The spa is terraced into the side of the mountain, surrounded by fruit trees and bathed in sun- light, with tranquil views across the gurgling stream. Casale Panayiotis is all about union with the local community. Guests are encouraged to tour the village, have coffee with the locals, or visit the exquisitely frescoed Byzantine monastery and chat with priests. There are stretches of timeless nature to explore on walking trails or mountain bikes. Visits to local cottage industries or walks around the hotel’s working orchards are negotiable. Nearby attractions include Kykko Monastery and Trooditissa Monastery, as well as mountain adven- ture parks. Fishing, rock-climbing, abseiling and skiing are also accessible.
