The Town of Lavrio

The Town of Lavrio

Recreation
10 kms
The historical town of Lavrio, 10km from the Resort, is the third major port in Attica. As well as ferry-links to the Cycladic islands, the town offers many shops and cafes, silver mines, mineral museum and access to the Theatre of Thorikos – the oldest ancient theatre in the country.
Temple of Poseidon

Temple of Poseidon

Historical landmark
3 kms
The Temple of Poseidon is situated directly opposite the Resort and is in plain view from several kilometres. Built to honour the ancient sea god, the temple dates back to 444-440 BC and was constructed from local white marble in Doric style. It was the symbol of Athenian power and an important religious and maritime icon of ancient times – marking both the last sign of civilisation and the first sign of home for generations of Athenian seafarers. According to legend, Cape Sounio is the spot where Aegeus, king of Athens, leapt to his death off the cliff, thus giving his name to the Aegean Sea. The English poet, Lord Byron has carved his name on one of the front pillars of the temple. Visit the Temple via the road from the hotel or by anchoring in the small sheltered bay at the foot of the temple's cliffs and then hiking up to the monument. The views of sunset seen through the temple’s ruins are regarded as one of the most celebrated sights in all of Greece.

Covert Cocktail Club
Covert Cocktail Club
Multi-city
Once upon a time in 2016, Matt Levy, founder of Covert Cocktail Club, hosted a secret speakeasy as an intimate place for strangers to gather in his home. The only way to find out about it was via word of mouth. No address was given, the only clue being a sign placed in the window, “Cocktails Here”. A lot of people thought it was pretty cool, even before The New York Times wrote about it. But that was all pre-pandemic, and this is a new era. Liberated from the confines of a single location, Covert Cocktail Club now brings the speakeasy right to your door—be it at your home, office, bar mitzvah, dinner party, bachelor/ette party or anywhere you choose!
