Wyndham Loutraki Poseidon Resort
Beachfront villas and bungalows under olive and pine
About this hotel
Verandas here split between the Corinthian Gulf and the gardens, and since both come with the same spa bath inside, the outlook is the decision that shapes the stay. The resort spreads across olive and pine cover rather than clearing it, with the architecture kept low and Greek in reference, so the walk from the Residence Building to a Superior Bungalow or a Villa passes under trees rather than across concrete. The beachfront position gives the property its own stretch of shore, and fine dining removes the need to drive out in the evening. Athens and its airport are an hour away, and Epidaurus, Mycenae, Nafplio and Ancient Corinth are all within reach for day trips inland.
- Five-star beachfront resort
- Villas, suites and superior bungalows
- Spa baths in the rooms
- Fine dining on site
Our take
The largest five-star option on this coast, and its 7.9 score across 588 reviews suggests service that does not always match the setting, though the gardens and the beach frontage are genuinely good. It suits families and groups who want space and a car. Travellers who want to walk to Casino Loutraki, the Thermal Spa or the town tavernas will be frustrated here and should book on the promenade instead.
- ✓Specify a gulf-facing veranda when you book, because garden-facing units in the same tier lose the water.
- ✓Take the villas or bungalows over the Residence Building if you are travelling with children and want space.
- ✓Drive into Loutraki one evening for dinner on the promenade rather than eating in every night.
Why we love it
- Spa baths and verandas in every accommodation tier
- Olive and pine gardens kept rather than cleared
- A beachfront position on the Corinthian Gulf
- An hour from Athens and Ancient Corinth alike
Why guests love itWyndham Loutraki Poseidon Resort is a five-star beachfront resort an hour from Athens and its airport, close to Epidaurus, Mycenae, Nafplio and Ancient Corinth. Rooms are in the Residence Building, Superior Bungalows, Villas and Suites, each with a spa bath and a veranda over the Corinthian Gulf or the gardens, and there is fine dining on site. Guests score it 7.9 across 588 reviews, so I would book it for the space and the setting, not for flawless service.
