LGBT Rights in Greece

The state of LGBTQ+ rights in Greece has reached a major milestone with the legalization of same-sex marriage in February 2024, marking a transformative step toward equality. This historic move makes Greece the first predominantly Orthodox Christian nation to embrace marriage equality, granting same-sex couples the legal right to marry and adopt children. It follows decades of progress, including the decriminalization of same-sex sexual activity in 1951 and the introduction of civil partnerships in 2015.

In addition to marriage equality, Greece has enacted significant protections for LGBTQ+ individuals. Anti-discrimination laws prohibit bias based on sexual orientation and gender identity in employment and other areas. Transgender individuals have been able to legally change their gender without requiring surgery since 2017, further reflecting the country’s commitment to inclusivity.

While urban centers like Athens and Thessaloniki are hubs of LGBTQ+ culture and activism, challenges remain in more rural and conservative areas, where traditional attitudes persist. However, advocacy groups and activists continue to push for broader societal acceptance, ensuring the full implementation of these new rights.

Athens boasts a vibrant LGBTQ+ scene, with a thriving nightlife and the annual Athens Pride Parade, which draws participants from across the globe. Thessaloniki also celebrates its own Pride events, contributing to Greece’s growing culture of inclusion. For LGBTQ+ travelers, Mykonos remains a favorite, renowned for its gay-friendly beaches and dynamic nightlife. Other destinations, such as Crete and Rhodes, are increasingly recognized for their welcoming environments.

With the legalization of same-sex marriage and a steadily evolving societal landscape, Greece is becoming a beacon of progress and a more inclusive destination for LGBTQ+ individuals.

Leaning into the mountain, the terraced villas have uninterrupted views of the Aegean, culminating in a 360-degree panorama on the vast entertainment deck with its cool bar, epicurean restaurant and saltwater infinity pool. Magnificent interiors offset the local vernacular with contemporary design, investing sophistication and comfort in every detail. You’ll enjoy the immediate proximity to the beach at Elia that true connoisseurs have come to know as one of the island’s most beautiful beaches, as well as the panoramic views from the sundeck with its spectacular saltwater infinity pool. You can indulge in exceptional spa treatments, savour epicurean meals, perhaps clear your conscience working out at the fitness gym, then turn to the guest services for explore anything further afield. As a guest of the Villa Collection, you have the Myconian Collection at your feet. The sister hotels in Elia – the Utopia Relais & Châteaux, the Avaton Design Hotel, and the Royal and Imperial Leading Hotels of the World – all await you with an exciting variety of restaurants, pool bars and spa treatments to be explored at your leisure and with the guidance of the informed and friendly staff.

About the Hotel

Food and Drink

Nouveau Restaurant

Start the new day with a superb breakfast in the airy Nouveau day restaurant. Follow the aromatic scent of freshly baked bread and ground coffee and you will find international buffet classics, a rich variety of fresh cut fruit, home-smoked fish, local delicacies, Greek specialities such as stuffed vine leaves or yogurt made from local dairy, and, naturally, chilled champagne on ice. At your table overlooking the sea, friendly waiters will take your orders for eggs done your way, freshly brewed, steeped or pressed beverages, or anything else you may desire from the à la carte menu.

Cabbanes Restaurant

The culinary experience at the poolside a-la-carte restaurant Cabbanes surpasses all expectations and requires both appetite and unbounded hedonism. Expect a subtle culinary adventure that draws on the best in local produce, served by candlelight in a breathtaking setting under the the star-studded night sky, with views across a moonlit sea.

The executive chef Thodoris Kyriakidis trained at A-listers’ favourite Michelin-starred ‘One Lombard Street” and the ultra-exclusive VIP club ‘5 Hertford Street’, as well as for the past 5 years as the Executive chef for the Myconian AVATON. He has mastered the creative fusion that relies on the excellence of the freshest local and seasonal ingredients, as well as select imported specialities. Taking you on a culinary travel through the Mediterranean with inspirations from Italy and France, it is ultimately a declaration of love for the unique flavours of Greek cuisine and produce. An extensive wine list of rare Greek vintages, fine international wines and champagnes complements this extraordinary dining experience, while the hospitable and attentive service staff tend to your every need with the seemingly effortless yet perfectly trained ease of a synchronised ballet. Be prepared for à la carte fine dining at its best.

Infinity Pool Bar

There is no mistaking the cool elegance of this poolside bar. Even though guests can be served at their loungers, they return time and again throughout the day to place their orders in the shade of a shaggy thatch canopy that rustles in the breeze. Bartenders with masters in mixology shake and stir anything from innocent smoothies to old classics and new concoctions. To satisfy a spot of hunger or a sudden craving at any time of day, there is a delicious selection of salads and snacks, light entrées and fresh marine delicacies such as oysters, sea urchins or caviar. And, of course, a select wine and champagne menu. Certain circadian rhythms prevail, and for those in the know, sunset drinks at the Infinity Bar are an absolute must, against the backdrop of a technicolour sky and to the almost otherworldly strains of live harp music. After dark, the pace changes to the sounds of a live DJ and the fine wines, whiskies and signature cigar collection come out to play.

In-room Dining

For those rare evenings when you feel like ‘staying home’ to catch up on sleep, work or TV entertainment, we offer a delicious in-room menu with something exceptional for everyone’s taste, guaranteed to arrive as hot or as chilled as the chef would have it. Whether you wish to arrange for a private and memorable dining experience, or simply enjoy a meal that’s not on the menu, a personal chef and his team are always at your disposal, ready to demonstrate their culinary prowess and prepare your favourite dishes in the privacy of your own suite or villa. The in-house chef services also include daily fresh grocery delivery, a unique selection of coffees and teas, breakfast served by your personal chef in your suite or villa, tailor-made romantic dinners, special meals, fully-catered parties and events, as well as pool lunches upon request.
