Opening in spring 2025, Mövenpick Resort Agios Nikolaos Sivota will be the first international resort in Epirus
Accor, a world-leading hospitality group, today announces the signing of Mövenpick Resort Agios Nikolaos Sivota, marking the celebrated brand’s debut in Greece.
Scheduled to open in Spring 2025, the resort will be operated by Pitoulis S.A, one of Greece’s leading hospitality operators. Set against the stunning backdrop of Epirus, the resort will feature 67 spacious rooms, including deluxe and executive suites with private pools and patios.
The hotel will also feature a rich culinary offering, such as Skipper’s Beach Bar, Island’s Bar by the pool, and the Thalassa restaurant, where Greek and Mediterranean delicacies are crafted using local produce.
Guests staying at the new resort will be able to access two swimming pools with expansive sea views, as well as dedicated family and adult-only pools.
At the recent signing ceremony in Greece, Patrick Mendes, Accor’s Chief Executive Officer for Premium, Midscale & Economy brands in Europe and North Africa, said: “The signing of our first Mövenpick address in Greece marks a significant milestone in our ambition to grow within this dynamic and culturally rich country. It also stands as a testament to our commitment to bringing our premium brands to more destinations in the region and beyond. Mövenpick is globally recognised for its culinary excellence, and Mövenpick Resort Agios Nikolaos Sivota will perfectly exemplify the brand’s ethos.”
“The visionary spirit of the Pitoulis family (Sergio, Vassilis, Agostino, Benedetta) laid the foundation for what would become a landmark in Sivota.
Years ago, their entrepreneurial drive led to the acquisition of the first plot, paving the way for a legacy built on education, ambition, and business acumen.
In 1996, this legacy culminated in the creation of the first 40 rooms of the Agios Nikolaos Hotel—a trailblazing property that has set the standard in the region of Epirus for nearly three decades.
Now, embarking on a new chapter under the Mövenpick brand, the hotel is poised to transcend boundaries and bring international acclaim to the breathtaking Epirus region.
This collaboration with Accor marks a milestone as the area’s first global partnership, ensuring our property shines on the world stage while continuing to honour its heritage.” Said Vassilis Pitoulis, Pitoulis S.A co-founder.
