Once a tranquil coastal escape, Porto Heli has evolved into a cosmopolitan haven, where pine-clad hills roll into cerulean bays and superyachts gently sway just offshore. Set along this chic corner of the Peloponnese, Nikki Beach Resort & Spa reopens its doors for the summer season, inviting guests to rediscover the art of elevated leisure.

Just a few hours from Athens, yet worlds apart in mood, Nikki Beach Resort & Spa Porto Heli is a destination in its own right. Managed by SWOT Hospitality, it blends signature design with discreet luxury and intuitive hospitality, all seamlessly in tune with its sun-soaked surroundings.

This season brings thoughtful enhancements and fresh energy. The resort’s 66 rooms and suites, many with private pools or sea-view balconies, set the tone for effortless indulgence. The six newly introduced Beach Houses, ranging up to 163 sq.m., offer a refined take on coastal living with vaulted ceilings, earthy palettes, open-plan elegance, and views that frame the bay like a still from a Mediterranean film.

High above the shoreline, Qurio Rooftop Bar beckons at golden hour, offering sushi, artisan cheese platters, sunset cocktails and panoramic views. Meanwhile, Nikki Spa continues to offer immersive wellness experiences drawn from ancient Greek rituals with organic ingredients, serene couple’s suites, and therapies designed to restore more than just the body.

The culinary calendar reads like a summer daydream. Dolce Vita Nights capture the romance of the Italian Riviera, with handmade pizzas, carpaccio, and candlelit ambiance under the stars. Midweek brings Under the Stars — a Grecian-style barbecue set to DJ beats and the scent of the sea. Throwback Vibes infuse Sundays with retro flair poolside, while Full Moon Celebrations at Qurio, in collaboration with Naked Bar Athens, turn cosmic energy into high-spirited rooftop revelry.

Families are warmly welcomed, with a dedicated Kid’s Attendant orchestrating creative play near the pool and tailored amenities like baby meals, child-friendly smoothies, and a special children’s breakfast buffet. Family rates are thoughtfully structured to meet different age-specific needs, ensuring a carefree stay for all generations.

Wellness remains at the core of the Nikki Beach ethos. Sunset Yoga sessions in July and August offer a soulful pause by the private harbor, while the Exclusive Wellness Weekend with Niki Petroulaki (June 28–29) promises a deeper journey inward with sunrise flows, grounding practices, and the sound of waves as backdrop.

And while the world beyond the resort offers polished marina strolls, stylish cafés, and the kind of buzz that only Porto Heli can provide, Nikki Beach remains a sanctuary of style – a place where celebration, connection, and calm coexist.
