From the moment we pulled up to The Pinnacle to the moment we left the staff and service was top notched. The staff at the front desk gave us so many excellent recommendations for sites to see and places to eat. The rooftop restaurant is a must for dinner! Evie was wonderful and made our night. The location is perfect for site seeing and shopping. Dining options within steps.

91 Athens Riviera simultaneously feels like a 5-star resort and a wellness retreat. The property radiates a peaceful vibe while providing top-class amenities. The staff are very accommodating and they go out of their way to show they care. It was our honeymoon and the extra touches they provided to make itt memorable for us were amazing. I absolutely loved this place and can't wait to return!
