Where History Meets Healing

The Story Behind MANNA

Originally built in 1927 as a sanatorium by philanthropist Anna Mela Papadopoulou, MANNA has long been a place of care and restoration. Its altitude, fresh air, and forest surroundings made it ideal for recovery. Nearly a century later, the space has been respectfully revived by acclaimed architects K-Studio and Monogon, transforming it into Greece’s only Design Hotel in a mountainous region. With 32 rooms and suites, locally sourced materials, and a design that preserves its neoclassical soul, MANNA offers modern luxury wrapped in timeless heritage.

Experience Arcadia, Reimagined

Nature, Nourishment, and Deep Renewal

At MANNA, every experience is curated to awaken your senses. Begin your day with mountain air and forest hikes along the Menalon Trail, then return for a treatment in the wellness hub or a moment of stillness in the cave pool. Savor seasonal dishes by award-winning chef Athinagoras Kostakos, crafted with the region’s finest produce. As night falls, gather by the outdoor fireplace, stargaze from the pond deck, and feel the rare luxury of true stillness. Here, you don’t just visit Arcadia, you become part of it. Kaer curates transformational experiences in places that hold natural power—and MANNA is one of them. The energy of the Arcadian mountains, the purity of the fir forest, and the legacy of care embedded in its walls make MANNA a rare and deeply resonant location for Kaer’s work. With its commitment to sustainability, architectural integrity, and soul-stirring hospitality, MANNA reflects our close values: connection, elevation, and meaning. It’s not just a beautiful place, it’s a setting that elevates every journey we create.
