Resort Details
Aresti Club Summary
Ideal for: wedding couples looking for the charm of an authentic old family mansion yet all the convenience of a holiday resort.
The Aresti Villas
Peacefully situated in the quaint village of Agios Dimitrios, is the special Aresti Club. Glorious countrysides, historic windmills and authentic charm surround the resort and offers a really relaxed vibe. However, bars and tavernas are within an easy drive, as are some great sandy beaches. The property is set on a wonderful hillside setting that overlooks 40,000 square metres of the verdant landscape. Best of all the Stamiris family have lovingly restored this old family mansion into what is today a refreshingly authentic and beautiful holiday resort.
Not only are the villas made from local stone and original pieces of the old mansion, but they are also cleverly reused and blended harmoniously into their natural surroundings. This recreates the charm and style of a bygone era. Thanks to the wonderfully lush landscape, each villa has remarkably secluded grounds, which also allows for a sizeable private pool. Furthermore, most of the villas have a rustic outdoor fireplace and barbecue which creates an incredibly cosy ambience in the evening.
While the exterior screams traditional Greece, the interiors are elegant, luxurious and immensely stylish. Thick wooden doors, windows and furnishings painted in vivid traditional colours just add to the character of each unique property. At the same time, you will find plenty of modern conveniences allowing self-catering opportunities. However, rest assured the Aresti Restaurant is nearby with twinkly lights and delicious fare. If you can’t tear yourself away from the comfort of your villa, room service is available.
Facilities
The joy of the Aresti Club is undoubted, having your own private home away from home and there are so many amenities that will keep you entertained. Children will love the soccer field, basketball courts and playgrounds, while adults can indulge in an array of treatments at the spa.
Weddings
Each wedding at Aresti offers something a little different, while the authenticity of the resort gives every wedding a vintage atmosphere. Ceremonies take place on a balcony area that extends over to the seafront with fantastic sunsets views. Whereas wedding couples seeking something yet more traditional may wish to include the old chapel situated within the Aresti grounds. Receptions take place in the forest area which allows for a rustic yet elegant feel and when lit at night, an utterly magical and memorable atmosphere surrounds you.
