Stunning photos of the Temple of Poseidon backlit by August's supermoon at Cape Sounion, Athens were shared around the world. We count ourselves among the lucky few to have taken in this temple view through all seasons. Cape Sounio a Grecotel Resort, is a rare and exquisite destination in the foothills of Sounio National Park. Immersing guests in a pristine pine forest, ancient archaeological ruins and the azure of the Aegean, it is an idyllic amphitheatre to The Temple of Poseidon with its vivid sunsets and ethereal moonrises.
SHLA has ongoing involvement in the transformation of the property's accommodation with villas and suites re-styled and renovated for 2024, complemented with deep azure swimming pools amongst lush gardens and pine trees. With paths that wind through natural rock, rough stone walls, native shrubs and gnarled pine trees to rugged walking trails, the resort is part of a rich and layered landscape where our focus remains on restoring its rythym within nature. https://www.grecotel.com/capesounio/
