HOTELS

W Costa Navarino announces an exciting lineup of season programming where guests will experience the verdant beauty of the Messinian region through the iconic lens of W. On April 5th, the first W Escape in Greece, located in Costa Navarino, the sustainably driven destination in southwest Peloponnese, will kick off its first full season with a series of events centered around W’s passions for music, wellness, fashion, inclusivity and cocktail/culinary culture.

It all culminates with a five-day transformative journey led by the legendary Deepak Chopra, who will be making his first appearance in Greece, where guests will leave with an energized, refreshed and renewed zest for life. Set against an unparalleled seaside landscape, W Costa Navarino’s programming will foster guests’ creativity, individuality and freedom of expression.

Easter at W Costa Navarino

For guests looking to spend their holiday break by the sea, W Costa Navarino will offer a nomadic Easter holiday, where travelers can experience a series of immersive, off-the beaten-path events. These inaugural Easter celebrations will signal a return to our roots, an organic homecoming. The resort welcomes the Nomade et Sauvage group and their inspired chefs who tour the country and turn the clocks back to a nomadic way of life, with an alternative gastronomic proposal.

They set the tables in lush natural surroundings, with ingredients foraged from the Messinian nature, cooked in open-air kitchens and handmade ovens by the sea. The resort will also host a variety of culinary workshops such as a cooking lesson with Messinian flavors, traditional egg painting and tsoureki making, and a wild fruit and herb foraging expedition to use in flavoring natural extracts and distillates. To celebrate the experience, W Costa Navarino will host a vibrant party on Easter Sunday for guests to dance and rejoice.

Introducing Navarino Watersports by Moraitis

Anyone looking for a more action-packed getaway will want to book time with Navarino Watersports by Moraitis. Offering water sports experiences to satisfy any thrill-seeker, the brand-new watersports hub opening in April, will feature something for everyone to enjoy, from exhilarating windsurfing, kitesurfing and SUP, to wake surfing and wing foiling – as well as more relaxed beach activities. Sitting next to the water sports hub is Green Pepper, a new restaurant that provides the ultimate chill-out spot following a day on the waves with tasty cocktails and vegetarian bites with a view.

“Disconnect to Reconnect” with La Meta Studio

This May, W Costa Navarino will partner with La Meta Studio – curators of sports and wellness retreats – to offer the ultimate wellness experience: “Disconnect to Reconnect.” Spanning across four days, the immersive program will focus on inner harmony through sports, wellness and entertainment. Surrounded by the flourishing lands of Messinia and guided by La Meta experts, guests will have a mind, body and soul-stirring experience they will carry home with them.

Sustainability Through Fashion

This July, the resort will offer a fashion-focused weekend of workshops and shows with sustainability at its core.

Deepak Chopra Balances the Body, Mind, and Soul

This September, Travelgems in partnership with W Costa Navarino will bring Deepak Chopra to Greece for the very first time for a unique retreat experience.

The legend of spirituality will delve into the future of physical, emotional, financial, and spiritual wellbeing through an immersive 5-day program. He will focus on three main themes: the Eight Limbs of Yoga, the Path to Love, and the Awakened Life. Over the course of the retreat, participants will dive into different aspects of intelligence – social, emotional, spiritual – while learning how to engage in self-healing. Guests will enjoy daily yoga sessions with Sarah Finger, Chopra’s personal yoga teacher and co-author of “Living in the Light: Yoga for Self-Realization.” Participants will also learn how to cultivate relationships in all aspects of their lives and understand the significance these have on their healthspan, healing and lifespan.
