GENNADI GRAND RESORT: REDEFINING THE GREEK RESORT
Elegant, relaxed and future-proofed, Gennadi Grand Resort is a fresh breath of Aegean air offering sun, sea and sustainability. A shining example of positive environmental and social impact, Gennadi Grand Resort is a place of pure inspiration where exceptional design, beauty and architecture blend together seamlessly.
Lovingly landscaped by eco-minded architects, the resort echoes the relaxed feel of this less-explored corner of the largest Dodecanese island. Connected to nature, the resort lies within a small fishing village off the tourist trail on Rhodes’ longest and most beautiful beach, set snugly between mountain and sea.
A synthesis of form, function and perfectly scaled structures in a nature-showcasing landscape, Gennadi Grand Resort operates under a BMS (Building Management System) comprising of leading innovative energy management technology. Slanted roofs simultaneously minimise sunlight reflection and optimise the microclimate conditions whilst forward-thinking recycling practices are in place throughout the resort.
Blending the exterior and interior spaces, here there are natural choices for every type of guest: floor-to-ceiling windows letting the natural light flood in, and sleek custom-made furnishings. The 288 rooms include spacious suites, two-bedroom suites and junior suites with private pools.
Wellness here is naturally uplifting and nourishing for mind, body and soul through spa experiences with a wide range of signature rituals, facials and treatments focused on releasing tension whilst promoting inner balance. In the fitness centre, bespoke exercise programmes can be created, with plenty of diversions in the open air such as floodlight tennis boccia court, beach volleyball and watersports as well as hiking, mountain biking and sailing.
Naturally delicious there are 12 delectable bars and restaurants. Provenance is paramount, with hyperlocal and small independent suppliers prioritised when possible for seasonal Greek flavours presented with international flair. The majority of dishes are prepared in front of guests, with interactive cooking stations, deli-style displays of first-class produce and a personalised approach to adapting dishes to individual tastes, mindful of gluten-free dietary requirements, and adventurous vegetarian and vegan eaters.
Elevating the luxury-resort experience, Gennadi Grand Resort is a rare blend of considered contemporary architecture, combined with old-fashioned heartfelt hospitality. It’s story is the sum of all its parts — the passion of the chefs, the independent farm workers who proudly bring their organic produce, the gardeners and of course the management team who have nurtured the feeling of everyone being a part of their extended family.
