It’s not just a resort; it’s the front row to some of the best views northern Greece offers, right where the adventure-friendly Vikos–Aoos National Park begins.</p>
<h3><strong>Stone Meets Chic: The Resort’s Build</strong></h3>
<p>You can’t help but admire how Aristi plays with its heritage. T<strong>he resort blends traditional stone architecture with splashes of modern comforts.</strong> It’s all about sustainable luxury here—think green roofs, energy-saving designs, and big, beautiful windows that bring the great outdoors right into your plush living room.</p>
<h3><strong>Living a Day the Aristi Way</strong></h3>
<p>The bliss of waking up at Aristi is something else. Each morning, we were greeted by the dance of colors as the sun washed over the valley, and the symphony of birds singing their morning tunes.  Opening the shutters to this natural spectacle infused our start of the day with pure joy.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-16313" src="https://travelmyday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Aristi-Mountain-Resort-by-TheHotelTrotter-2024-30-819x1024.jpg" alt="" width="819" height="1024" /></p>
<p>Breakfast at Salvia—think pies but with a twist, filled with local herbs and crafted with home-ground flour—got our mornings off to a fresh, flavorful start. The resort’s own organic gardens aren’t just for show; they’re the secret behind the burst of freshness in every bite we enjoyed there.</p>
<p>Post-breakfast, we were often glued to our balcony with steaming cups of coffee and good books, occasionally looking up to admire the view that stretched out endlessly before us. The comfort of the villa and the beauty of the landscape made it hard to leave our cozy spot.</p>
<p>When we did tear ourselves away, the paths from the resort stretched out to Aristi village, woven through with cultural tales and the natural beauty of Zagori. Our guide from TREKKING HELLAS, Alina, was a walking encyclopedia, unveiling secret trails by the Voidomatis River that only locals whispered about.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-16312" src="https://travelmyday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Aristi-Mountain-Resort-by-TheHotelTrotter-2024-23-768x1024.jpg" alt="" width="768" height="1024" /></p>
<p>In the afternoon, it was all about the spa. Imagine soothing your hike-weary muscles in a Jacuzzi with a mountain view, or doing laps in a pool that feels part of the landscape thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows.</p>
<p>Come evening, dinner was a quiet affair under the stars on our balcony, with dishes that echoed the local terrain—thanks to the genius of Executive Chef Yiannis Liokas. Imagine the best of Greek cuisine, but lighter, fresher, and with a modern twist.</p>
<p>Aristi Wrapped Up<br />
Staying at Aristi Mountain Resort &amp; Villas isn’t just about finding a place to sleep; it’s about experiencing a slice of Greek mountain life in style. It’s where every detail sings of luxury tailored thoughtfully with tradition, and where each moment connects you deeper with the land, the culture, and, of course, your travel companions. Can’t wait to go back!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Exploring Zagorochoria’s Finest: A Guide to the Best Hotels in Epirus’ Hidden Gem</h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Nestled in the heart of Greece’s majestic Epirus region, Zagorochoria is a tapestry of stone villages, lush landscapes, and hidden gems waiting to be discovered. Look no further if you are seeking a blend of rustic charm and modern luxury. Join me on a captivating journey as we explore the best hotels in Zagorochoria. Each of these havens offers a unique story, combining the allure of history, the comfort of luxury, and the untouched beauty of the Greek countryside.</p>
<h2>Here are top four picks for the best hotels in Zagorochoria, each offering a unique window into the soul of this enchanting region.</h2>
<h3>Apeiros Chora: A Timeless Tale of Elegance</h3>
<p>Apeiros Chora, nestled in the serene village of Kato Pedina, is not just a hotel; it’s a living history book. <strong>This Zagori mansion, held within the same family for eight generations, beautifully encapsulates the essence of the region’s past.</strong> As I wandered through its halls, the touch of Athina Aslanidou, the owner and a skilled interior designer, was evident in every detail. The blend of minimalist modernity with the mansion’s noble history creates an atmosphere of unparalleled elegance.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-16049" src="https://travelmyday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/apeiros-chora-zagorohoria-41-576x768-2.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="768" /></p>
<p>Each suite is a masterpiece, fusing creams and greys with luxurious bedding and designer lighting. The kitchen, the heart of Apeiros Chora, serves as a time portal to the mansion’s rich heritage, offering homemade delicacies that tell tales of the past. With its cave-like cellar, wooden ceilings, and fireplaces, this guest house is a testament to Zagorochoria’s enduring charm.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-16048" src="https://travelmyday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/apeiros-chora-zagorohoria-12-576x768-2.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="768" /></p>
<p>Pirrion Wellness: A Panoramic Escape<br />
Pirrion Wellness stands as a beacon of comfort and beauty, set against Zagorochoria’s breathtaking landscapes. My stay in the ‘Pergamonto’ suite was nothing short of magical, with its private terrace and jacuzzi offering a panoramic view of Ano Pedina. The suite’s pastel hues and elegant décor created an atmosphere of peaceful luxury.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-16047" src="https://travelmyday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Aristi-Mountain-Resort-36-735x768-2.jpg" alt="" width="735" height="768" /></p>
<p>The culinary experience at Pirrion Wellness is a journey through local flavors, with dishes crafted from the freshest ingredients. The traditional hammam and spa treatments offer a tranquil escape, ensuring a holistic experience of relaxation and indulgence.</p>

<h3>Aristi Mountain Resort: Where Luxury Meets Adventure</h3>
<p>At Aristi Mountain Resort, luxury is redefined amidst the rugged beauty of Epirus. As a proud member of Beyond Green, this resort has garnered acclaim for its commitment to sustainable luxury and its integration with the surrounding natural wonders. <strong>The Salvia restaurant, recognized as one of the best in Western Greece, offers a gastronomic experience that celebrates the indigenous flavors of Zagori.</strong></p>

<p>The resort’s rooms, suites, and villas are a haven of aesthetic pleasure and comfort, each offering a unique view of the stunning landscape. My highlight was the SPA, a sanctuary where the indoor heated pool overlooks the mountains, complemented by a jacuzzi, sauna, and Turkish steam bath. The feeling of rejuvenation here is physical and deeply spiritual, connecting you to the heart of Zagorochoria’s natural beauty.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.zagori-outdoor.gr/en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Guided tours</a> to landmarks like the ‘Towers of Astraka’ and the Vikos Gorge offered by the resort add an element of adventure.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>One of my favourite stays in Greece is definitely Apeiros Chora, a dreamy guest house steeped in history and atmosphere, situated in the village of Kato Pedina at Zagorochoria, Epirus in Greece.</h3>
<p><span id="more-22263"></span><strong>Apeiros Chora is an authentic <a href="https://www.thehoteltrotter.com/tag/zagori/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Zagori</a> mansion house,</strong> graciously restored by the same family who owns it for 8 generations. Its name derives from the Doric expression “Infinite Land”, the name Epirus had in ancient times. The guest house looks straight out of a fairy tale. Although in our case, the fairy tale boasts extremely modern and cool aesthetics, looking straight out of an interior design magazine! It came as no surprise to me to hear that its renovation was performed by the owner itself who is a professional interior designer and stylist, Mrs. Athina Aslanidou.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-15009" src="https://travelmyday.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/apeiros-chora-zagorohoria-38-768x1024.jpg" alt="" width="768" height="1024" /></p>
<p>She supervised the restoration of the mansion with the aim to preserve the authenticity in terms of history, tradition and local architecture. You see, she had to deal with one of the very few aristocratic residences of Zagorohoria, her husband’s family house. <strong>Although there are plenty of traditional accommodation options in the area of Zagori, Apeiros Chora, which was first built in the late 1600s, is actually a rare sample of a high-class mansion.</strong> Having also in their possession a plethora of precious family souvenirs, antiques and vintage everyday objects, they wished to incorporate all their heirlooms in the new era of their house in the best way. And so, they did. Today the descendants of <a href="https://apeiroschora.gr/?gclid=CjwKCAiA5Y6eBhAbEiwA_2ZWIVa1TAaNJh5bXj8ph1bxyFjmoLmN9G5X9Fm5Fcolw1x2r0bSA_UjFRoCiyEQAvD_BwE" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Apeiros Chora</strong></a> are actively engaged in making the experience of their guests extraordinary.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-15008" src="https://travelmyday.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/apeiros-chora-zagorohoria-49-768x1024.jpg" alt="" width="768" height="1024" /></p>
<p>During my visit, I kept discovering details and touches that revealed a solid connection to the history of the house, yet they looked modern and not folklore at all. Minimalism and a soft grey palette make them stand out creating an absolutely contemporary look. I thought this is the best way one can interpret the local tradition and the treasures that exist in an old house. <strong>The suites are all soothingly furnished in creams and greys with antiques and contemporary touches, luxury beddings and designer lights.</strong> As in the past, the kitchen is the heart of the guest house, featuring a traditional stove as well as modern equipment. On a daily basis, the dining table is full of homemade delicacies inspired by the memories of the house. There is an impressive cave-like cellar, amazingly restored wooden ceilings, cozy common areas with fireplaces and most importantly relaxing vibes.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-15007" src="https://travelmyday.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/apeiros-chora-zagorohoria-7-768x1024.jpg" alt="" width="768" height="1024" /></p>
<p><strong>The result is a perfect mix of local styles and classic urban influences with modern design touches.</strong> At the same time, there are decisive contemporary services that every modern traveller looks such as eco-friendly environmental choices and smart home abilities. Furthermore, the owners do their best to create a unique home-like and sophisticated ambiance having earned a reputation as being among the best hosts of Zagori.</p>

<p>The first Banyan Tree resort in Europe will be located at Varko, an idyllic and unspoiled coastal area in Western Greece</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Varko Bay will be Banyan Tree’s first ultra-luxury resort in Europe, located in the Ionian Region and facing the Islands of Lefkada, Meganisi and Scorpio. Varko in Greece is renowned for its unspoiled scenery and secluded beaches and is only 25 minutes from Aktio International Airport.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-14375" src="https://travelmyday.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Banyan-Tree-Resort-Greece-Europe-Varko-bay-4-1024x721.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="721" /></p>
<p>The approximately 180,000 sqm of land, including the ridged peninsula, with 1.9 km coastal frontage and sandy beaches will guarantee spectacular panoramic views. Designed by Greek international award-winning architects, the resort will comprise hotel villas, branded residences, a spa and wellness centre as well as a private marina. It is also noteworthy that the stunning design of the resort has been made with the highest respect to nature and the environment.</p>
<h3>Wellness at Varko Bay and Banyan Tree’s heritage</h3>
<p>Varko Bay will also offer holistic revitalization of both emotion and spirit that will begin with the sensitive enhancement of this striking Mediterranean location. A perfect fit for Banyan Tree’s ultra-luxury brand DNA, which focuses on ‘Embracing the Environment and Empowering People’. <strong>Like the tropical and sacred tree from which it got its name, the Banyan Tree Spas offer guests a ‘Sanctuary for the Senses’ – A place for physical, mental and spiritual renewal.</strong></p>
<p>An intuitive art of touch and high standards of dedicated service are the highlights of each Banyan Tree Spa experience. Varko Bay draws on this rich heritage and experience which is blended with local rituals and European values to create a distinct, broad &amp; modern wellness offering for its guests.</p>
