For the table
Four Seasons Astir Palace
Vouliagmeni · Athens Riviera
After a roughly €600-million restoration, it reopened as a Four Seasons in 2019, organised around two hotels, Nafsika and Arion, plus seafront bungalows. Three private beaches edge the headland, where umbrella-lined pool decks run straight to the Saronic Gulf.
Dining is a real reason to come. Pelagos, under Italian-born chef Luca Piscazzi, holds one Michelin star for Mediterranean cooking built around seafood. Alongside it sit the Italian trattoria Mercato, the all-day Latin-American Helios and the Greek Taverna 37, a roster that makes the resort as much a table as a retreat.
The Riviera has glamour to spare; this one adds a one-star table and a pine headland that still feels private. It carries its history without leaning on it.
