PORTO HELI​
​
Porto Heli (Cheli) is a resort town on the eastern coast of the Peloponnese, in Argolis, directly across the beautiful island of Spetses. Long established among wealthy Greeks as a discreet summer haven, Porto Heli is currently benefiting from the recent arrival of world-class hotel and residential projects, adding to the range of services and amenities available to the area, while broadening its international appeal.
​
Porto Heli and its environs, including Costa, Agios Aimilianos and the island of Spetses, have long comprised an elite, yet discreet, enclave for the villas and estates of a high profile network of Greek families, and an increasingly international crowd, including European royalty and other HNI.
A blessed region, it boasts one of the best year round climates in Greece, glittering blue waters, clear skies, green hills and a rich coastline. It offers an endless choice of friendly coves and beaches, excellent dining and day-trip opportunities, high-end hotels and amenities, which include Hapimag, the stunning AmmanZoe, and the famous Nikki Beach Resort & Spa.
A short Water Taxi ride away is the traditional yet cosmopolitan island of Spetses. It offers an eclectic mix of fine dining, beautiful traditional architecture, horse drawn carriages, car-free roads, international events, a vibrant nightlife and a convergence of mega-yachts and sailing boats. Accessible year round by land, sea and air, Porto Heli is approximately a 2.5 hrs. drive from Athens International Airport or from the city center, or appx. a 30
