LOCATION

On the peninsula of Vouliagmeni, the most exclusive area of the Athenian Riviera, just a half hour from the center of Athens.

BACKGROUND

The most hospitable, elegant and arty hotel of the Athenian Riviera is recommended for brief escapes with a taste of the tropics, for magical evenings by the pool and for candle-lit romantic dinners.
In the early 60s, when influential Greeks decided to transform a part of the Saronic coast into a chic and glamorous holiday destination, to create their very own Côte d’ Azur a doctor, Yancos Stavridis, shared his vision of an Athenian Riviera and contributed by founding The Margi Hotel. Now, several decades later, its boutique esthetic, its warm luxury and its Mediterranean vibe, have helped The Margi emerge as one of Athens’ favorite hotels. Small objets d’art, ethnic details and design references complete its mystical setting.
It is located near Athens’ most elegant sandy beach and yacht marina in Vouliagmeni on the southern coast, offering guests the chance to enjoy the Greek summer and all that it entails: diving in the waters of Vouliagmeni Bay, taking day-cruises, enjoying the sea breeze and exploring cosmopolital Glyfada – just five minutes away – for shopping and fun. At the end of the day, returning to this warm and luxurious haven is ample reward.
