Argentikon

The Argentikon dates back to 1550, when the Genoese Argenti family built a small palazzo as a summer residence. This exquisite hideout offers luxury, privacy and tranquillity. An elegant restaurant offers some of the finest Mediterranean cuisine. Eight sumptuous suites are spread over various historical buildings. Furnished entirely with precious antiques, they feel like guest suites in a royal palace. The décor is overwhelming and uncompromising; the only modern elements are the amenities. The gardens are no less impressive: winding pathways lead past rose gardens, fruit trees and cypresses, carefully maintained hedges, pebble-mosaic terraces, marble statues and cisterns, and wells with large wooden water wheels. The swimming pool is the only compromise in terms of historic authenticity, but one that is absolutely worth it.
