On June 29th, 2024, King Jason Zante will open its doors, inviting discerning travellers to embark on a transformative wellness journey, where they will experience the feeling of inhabiting an island within an island. In this travel feature, we look at some of the things this extraordinary resort offers.
King Jason Zante, set in a peaceful location overlooking Tsilivi Bay, is the latest addition to the five-star Exclusive Collection by Louis Hotels. The resort, which boasts incredible architecture, is shaded by indigenous olive trees and is a floating tribute to the power of water.
Amid this first-of-its-kind elemental magnificence of place and space, water and air, sun-warmed earth and ancient trees, it’s easy to enjoy the small and not-so-small pleasures of slow living.
The brand-new resort, located on a 25,000 m2 property and surrounded by 10,000 m2 of shimmering water, is nestled amidst the captivating beauty of Zakynthos.
It is designed for adults and is an all-inclusive lifestyle haven, offering a serene sanctuary which connects to the surrounding bliss of the natural elements. It is the type of rare-to-find place which is perfect for those seeking to slow down, reconnect with nature, and indulge in the finer things in life.
At King Jason Zante, the art of living slow is more than just a concept; it’s a way of life. Inspired by the natural landscape and infused with upscale aesthetics, this new resort promises a hospitality experience where every detail is carefully curated to ensure maximum comfort and relaxation.
From luxurious accommodations to impeccable service, the resort will invite guests to embrace the present moment, leaving the stresses of everyday life behind.
The property is much more than incredible accommodation; it’s an invitation to experience the extraordinary. It presents a visual and sensory feast for those seeking an unforgettable escape with views of the Ionian Sea, welcoming travellers into a symphony of flavours and tranquillity, inviting them to indulge in a special brand of everything-taken-care-of service.
Gastronomy is one of the resort’s stand-out features. In-house guests will delight in the layered, memorable and piquant flavours in its artful menus, and the chefs’ table dining experiences with its resplendent wine cellar offer further dining and drinking pleasures.
The spacious rooms are choreographed in gentle, neutral tones of sand and beige. Raw and natural materials inspired by the landscape create a sense of serenity. This chromatic elegance produces an immediate connection with the ever-present element of water that ripples throughout the domain.
The Island Suites offer serene, generous overwater rooms with floating outdoor patios connecting to the surrounding bliss, a feeling of sailing on land on shimmering waters of private pools. The Deluxe Suites boast outstanding views combined with a contemporary low-key allure designed to help you unwind, slow down and relax. The Superior Suites are sensory cocoons, spacious and bright, the touchpoint of elegance and sophisticated design.
The vision of slow living extends into the core philosophy of the spectacularly located Purai Spa at King Jason Zante. This space provides a restful, deliberate design with natural raw materials and muted earth tones, merging with the water and light.
The spa offers a series of techniques and therapies, all designed to optimise wellness and introduce easy new habits that can be implemented in guests’ daily routines back home.
The spa’s transformative experience includes a Slowness Coach, who will be guiding visitors on ways to discover their own slower pace through morning meditations in the olive groves, silent reflective olive leaf-picking, tea rituals, yoga, and gentle stretching practices.
King Jason Zante wants visitors to embrace the art of slow living through its inspired accommodation, culinary excellence and wellness experiences that celebrate the elemental and natural beauty of Zakynthos.
