Manna Arcadia invites you to Celebrate a Traditional Greek Easter in the heart of nature

Easter is the most important celebration in Greece, and it is filled with tradition, color, tastes, and mysticism.  At MANNA it is a feast of the senses, celebrating the re-birth of nature and the joy of life! This Easter indulge in a much needed retreat, in the heart of nature in mainland Greece, in the Peloponnese, in a timeless sanctuary of peace, mindful balance and rejuvenation.  Epic mountains, fir forests, rivers and dreamy cobblestone picturesque villages await to sweep you off your feet, like never before!

Surrounded by a landscape considered an earthly paradise from antiquity to now, and situated within a historically preserved building, MANNA is a newly opened luxury mountain retreat in Arcadia, Peloponnese, just 2 hours from Athens. Replete with outdoor yoga, a lily pond and a wide variety of activities and experiences in the forest, a serene wellness hub, a unique architectural concept and a farm-to-table cuisine conceived by award-winning Greek chef Athinagoras Kostakos, MANNA is a place to refresh, reset, and reengage with one’s mind, body and soul.
