Hotel Synopsis
Agrós Private Houses & Food Experiences is a unique concept in the region of Messenia in Peloponnese, that combines independent accommodation with memorable gastronomy experiences. Agrós consists of two main locations:
The Estate, which includes the project’s Mediterranean Gardens with trees & herbs, that are the foundations of the whole experience, a fully-functional olive oil press, and the designated indoor & outdoor spaces for cooking classes, food tasting, and private dinners. The Estate houses also a Guest House with Private Balcony, for Guests that prefer to stay in the ‘heart’ of the Project
The Nature Houses, which are located 10’ drive away from the Estate, and offer independent accommodation with private facilities.
The Experience for the staying guests starts with the secluded and completely quiet location of the Nature Houses, which feature all the facilities required for a completely independent stay: fully-equipped kitchen, private pool, private garden, and BBQ facilities with outdoor dining area. Even the Guests staying at the Guest House, which is located within the Estate, will feel the independent vibe, as this is also a type of accommodation with a fully-equipped kitchen and facilities.
The elements of food & gastronomy are at the top of the list of Agrós’s experiences. Starting from the Earth, the guests and visitors can experience the whole process of growing your own fruits and vegetables, as well as learn how olive oil, one of the world’s most valuable natural products, is being produced. Agrós’s guests and visitors have also got the chance to use all these products during interactive cooking classes, while after the cooking, everyone is able to enjoy the food at the special indoor & outdoor dining spaces. The specified food experiences include also Wine & Olive Oil Tasting sessions, while they are offered either for small groups (up to 10 people) or privately (2-4 people).
Additionally, Agrós has the pleasure to offer unique tastes to its guests and visitors, in two ways:
For the staying guests, Agrós can provide sumptuous Breakfast Baskets, which they can enjoy at the privacy of their house.
Also, within its specially specified Estate Yard, Agrós can organize unique Sunset Private Dinners for two, or even Mini Sunset Events for up to 15 people.
To complete the overall Agrós Experience, the unique locations among nature, the project’s ECO friendly mentality, as well as the secluded and peaceful environment, are ideal for guests who look for destinations that offer wellness & wellbeing opportunities.
