Dexamenes Seaside Hotel is a unique design retreat on Greece’s western Peloponnese coast. The hotel has been created from an abandoned wine factory from the 1920s, where guests get a chance to sleep inside old wine tanks. Located on Kourouta beach steps away from the water, near the town of Amaliada, the postwar winery is an architectural gem, as well as a piece of Greek history. The rooms have been transformed with steel, engineered glass, and timber, keeping the minimalist industrial design, beautifully juxtaposed to the vast empty coast and the flowing sea right outside of your door.
