The Romanos is a Luxury Collection resort set along the Dunes Beach in Messinia, on Greece’s south-western coast. The 321 rooms, suites, and villas are spread across beautifully landscaped grounds, with roughly half offering their own private infinity pool. A large shared outdoor pool, a further long pool with its own bar and lunch terrace, and a private beach fronting the Ionian Sea give guests an exceptional range of leisure options. The resort has won architectural awards and has featured in the Condé Nast Golf list, and it shares facilities — including a spa, thalassotherapy centre, and more than twenty dining venues — with the adjacent Westin resort.
Costa Navarino is one of Europe’s strongest multi-course golf destinations, and The Romanos sits at the heart of it. Four 18-hole championship courses are available — the Dunes Course (designed by Bernhard Langer), the Bay Course (Robert Trent Jones Jr.), the Navarino Hills, and the International Olympic Academy Course — each with its own character and sea views. A Golf Academy and extensive practice areas cater to those looking to work on their game between rounds. Free shuttles run to the Bay, Navarino Hills, and IOAC courses, and transfers to The Westin are equally convenient.
The resort is open from spring to early autumn, which aligns well with UK golfers seeking warm, settled conditions. Greece golf holidays from The Romanos reward those who want serious golf paired with genuinely luxurious surroundings, without the formality that can sometimes accompany five-star resort stays.
