Marriott International has signed an agreement to bring The Luxury Collection to the Dodecanese Islands in Greece, following an extensive renovation of Patmos Aktis Suites & Spa, which will become the only luxury resort on the island.

Expected to open in summer 2024, Patmos Aktis, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Greece will be reimagined by Stylianidis Vaggelis Architects and Anastassiadis Architecture & Design.

Once the renovation completed, the property will offer 56 guestrooms, suites and villas, with additional guestrooms to be added on in 2025, a signature restaurant serving local island dishes with a contemporary twist, and a bar and terrace with bay views.

The hotel will also feature a spa that offers rejuvenating rituals and signature treatments designed to detoxify the mind and relax the body, mirroring the spiritual reputation of the island. From welcome drink flavoured with rose petals to mystical sessions with Tibetan bells, each guest journey will focus on wellbeing.

The concept for interior design, led by Patricia Anastassiadis, blends The Luxury Collection standards of luxury with Patmos Aktis’ simplicity. Furthermore, the resort will feature local artwork and traditional Greek design touches to pay tribute to the location.

Greece continues to be an extremely desirable leisure destination for our global explorers. Bringing The Luxury Collection to the idyllic island of Patmos on the Dodecanese further cements the brand’s leadership in luxury hospitality while providing our guests access to a captivating and relatively undiscovered destination to experience authentic Greece. We’re excited to be working with the owners of this beautiful resort to bring this project to life.
