About The Area
Costa Navarino is one of Europe’s standout luxury golf holiday destinations, set in Messinia on the south-west coast of the Peloponnese. It combines championship golf, five-star resort living, sandy beaches, olive groves, sea views and relaxed Greek hospitality, making it a superb choice for golfers who want a premium sunshine break with plenty beyond the fairways.
The golf is the main attraction. Costa Navarino offers four 18-hole signature courses in one destination, giving golfers outstanding variety without needing to travel far. The Dunes Course, designed by Bernhard Langer with European Golf Design, was the first signature-designed golf course in Greece, while The Bay Course brings beautiful seaside holes framed by the Bay of Navarino. Navarino Hills adds two more signature layouts, The Hills Course and the International Olympic Academy Golf Course, creating one of the strongest multi-course golf resorts in the Mediterranean.
Away from golf, Costa Navarino has a proper holiday feel. You can enjoy beaches, watersports, spa time, tennis, local food, Messinian wine, historic sites and trips to places such as Voidokilia Beach, Pylos and Kalamata. The resort is also practical for UK travellers, with Kalamata International Airport less than 45 km away and Athens under 280 km by road.
For UK golfers, Costa Navarino is ideal for a tailor-made Greece golf holiday that feels polished, scenic and easy from start to finish. Hashtag Golf Travel can help plan the right hotel, courses, transfers and add-ons for a memorable Messinia golf escape.
